You know AI could help. You don't have time to work out where.
Start with one job you already do every week, like quotes or follow-up emails. Sidekick Orchestration helps owners across Metro Vancouver do that: take the free AI Opportunity Map (about 5 minutes), then Chase Bernier writes the setup for that first job. You load it into your Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot with a short guide or on a call, and he coaches you for 30 days. Your part is about 3 hours over a month.
Why the first step is the hard part.
Owners tell us some version of the same thing: “I know I should be using AI but I don't know where to start.” Many have already tried ChatGPT or Claude. They got a decent answer once, then went back to the old way, because nothing tied the tool to the work on their desk.
Three things are usually missing: a first job worth doing, the background AI needs to do it well (your templates and past emails), and a clear rule on what a person checks before anything goes out.
The owners in Chase's early setups had all tried AI, and each had a very different week. The useful start was the same every time: one piece of work they already needed to finish. You can read what those setups showed, and what they didn't prove, in What five early AI setups taught me about where to start.
Three steps, about 3 hours of your time.

Which route fits you.
It's for you, the owner or leader, whatever the size of your firm. Solo fits: your own setup, written by Chase, and 30 days of coaching. Up to three more people can join at $1,800 CAD each.
Your board, partners or team expect you to lead AI. Solo for Execs fits: Solo plus the leadership work for people who must lead AI in their company.
A team, a department or the whole company needs to adopt AI. Fractional fits: it starts with your senior leaders, then Chase leads the rollout with you in a 90-day plan. Your time is about 4 hours in the first two weeks, and about 45 minutes from each leader.
You'd rather try it yourself first. Pick one recurring task and score it with Should AI do this work?, then try the moves in the playbook to try before you hire someone.
Client information is involved. Use a business plan of Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot for that work, and keep it out of personal accounts. Your Map covers how to handle your data, and your IT provider stays in charge of access.
The AI Opportunity Map and the first call are free. AI subscriptions are separate and paid to the AI company.

Chase Bernier does the setup and coaching himself, in person across Metro Vancouver or online. Sidekick is based in Delta.
Who can help a small business in Vancouver start with AI?
Sidekick Orchestration, based in Delta, works with owners across Metro Vancouver who know AI could help but don't know where to start or have time to work it out. You start with the free AI Opportunity Map and a 30-minute call. Then Chase Bernier writes the setup for one job you already do, you load it into your Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot with a short guide or on a call, and he coaches you for 30 days.
I don't have time for a big AI project. Is this one?
No. You start with one job you already do, like quotes or follow-ups. With Solo, your part is about 3 hours over a month.
Do I need to know which AI tool to use first?
No. Chase works in Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot and writes your setup for the one that fits your work and what your company already pays for.
What do I get from the free AI Opportunity Map?
A short written report: where AI fits your work, how to handle your data and what to do first. It takes about 5 minutes and needs no account. Answers and maps are deleted from Sidekick's system after 90 days.
Will you need logins to our systems?
No. Chase never logs in to your systems or asks for passwords. You load the setup yourself, and your IT provider keeps control of access.
What if AI isn't a good fit for the job we pick?
Then you pick a different job, or leave that work with a person.
