About us
AI For Local Marketing – Nashville | Real AI. Real Results. No BS.
Let's be honest — most Nashville business owners are either ignoring AI entirely – or drowning in hype from people who've never actually implemented anything.
We built this group to fix this gap in the market...
My name is Ben — a direct response copywriter who's generated over $50 million for clients.
I started AI for Local Marketing because we got tired of watching local businesses get left behind while big corporations automated everything in sight.
This isn't a group about theory. It's about what actually works.
What we do at every meetup:
· Show you specific AI tools you can use this week (not someday)
· Walk through real implementations — time savings, revenue gains, actual numbers
· Answer your questions without the tech jargon
· Connect you with other Nashville business owners doing the same thing
Who belongs here: You run a business. You're busy. You've heard "AI is the future" a hundred times and you want someone to just show you what to DO. That's your seat.
We don't care if you've never touched an AI tool or if you're already experimenting — if you want practical over theoretical, you'll fit right in.
Bottom line: Nashville's 35,000 local businesses deserve the same tools the big guys use. We're here to make that happen, one implementation at a time.
Come see what "AI that actually works" looks like.

4 Problems Costing You Money — And The AI That Fixes Each One
Brentwood, TN Library, 8109 Concord Rd Brentwood, TN 37027, Brentwood, TN, USNashville business owners: you already know at least two of these problems:
1. The phone rings and nobody answers it. You're under a sink. On a roof. Driving. It goes to voicemail, they don't leave one, and they call the next guy on the list. You'll never know that job existed.
2. You meant to follow up, and a week went by. You quoted them Tuesday. Told yourself Thursday. It's the following Wednesday and now it feels weird to call. That estimate is sitting there dead, and you already did the work to earn it.
3. Everything you have to write takes forever and sounds like nobody. The estimate follow-up, the review reply, the postcard. You're at the kitchen table at 9 PM rewriting the same three sentences.
4. Somebody in your town searched for exactly what you do, and you weren't there. People don't scroll ten blue links anymore. They ask an AI, it names three companies, they call one. If it isn't naming you, you didn't lose the bid. You never got asked to bid.
If you just read those and thought "four for four" — that's normal.
Every one of them is a problem of not being in two places at once, and working harder has never fixed a single one.
WHAT HAPPENS ON AUGUST 27
First 45-minutes, we put all four problems on the table with real numbers and you do arithmetic on your own business. Then lunch. Then a full hour where I fix all four problems in front of you, automatically.
You'll hear an AI voice agent answer a real Nashville company's phone, live, in the room. You'll watch a dead lead list wake up. You'll see a generic paragraph turn into something that sounds like the owner actually wrote it. And we'll ask an AI who it recommends in Nashville for what you do, and find out together whether you're on the list.
Then one more thing nobody expects: a Nashville accountant's photorealistic AI twin, delivering a full video. He stood still for under five minutes to make it. You decide whether you can tell it isn't him.
Everyone in the room leaves with the printed build kit — all five documents, the same ones I use with real paying clients: The 100 Questions. The Identity Prompts. How To Build It. The AI Search Playbook. The complete AI Twin build. Not a raffle. Everybody gets all five.
Two free guides land in your inbox the moment you register, plus your Real AI Score and 5-Area Gap Report — three minutes on your phone, so you walk into the second half already knowing which problem to fix first.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF you own a local business in greater Nashville — a truck, a crew, a shop, a practice, a storefront — and at least two of those four problems landed.
IT'S NOT FOR YOU IF you're already running AI in your business, or you came up through marketing. You'd be bored, and I'd rather say that than take your $47.
