The AI Business Society

Headlines talk about funding rounds. Customers are what actually keep a company alive. This session breaks down how startups really earn money, the main revenue models, what the numbers look like in practice, and how AI is changing the maths for small teams. Your host: Milana from the Bridges Network.

What we'll cover:
• The main startup revenue models, and which businesses each one suits
• The few numbers that matter: margins, customer cost and lifetime value
• Why many funded startups still do not make money
• How AI lets small teams earn like much bigger ones
• Open Q&A on your own idea or business

Who it's for: London founders, owners and aspiring founders who want to understand the money side of building a company. No finance background needed.

Bring: a notebook, and your business idea or current revenue model if you have one.

Where: Google Meet. The link appears here once you RSVP "Going." 60 minutes, no cost.

How we brought in 256 paying customers in 90 days with an AI sales funnel that runs while we sleep, broken down step by step for solopreneurs and small business owners. The real system, the real numbers, and the AI tools behind every step.

Most owners get clients the hard way: referrals, cold outreach, chasing people who went quiet. It works until you get busy, and then the pipeline dries up. An automated funnel fixes that. AI now writes the pages, the emails, the ads and the follow-up, so new customers keep coming in whether you are on a call, on vacation or asleep.

This session shows you how to build one.

What we cover:
• What a sales funnel actually is, in plain English, and the one you are probably already running without knowing it
• How to get clients on autopilot: the follow-up sequence that turns strangers into buyers without you chasing anyone
• The low-ticket first offer: why a small first purchase beats a free lead magnet, and how it pays for your ads
• The 90-day breakdown: the offer, the price, the traffic and the AI-written pages and emails behind 256 customers
• Where AI does the heavy lifting: copy, landing pages, email sequences, ad variations and lead scoring, and the tools we use for each
• A simple template to map your own automated funnel before the call ends

Who it's for: solopreneurs, freelancers, consultants, coaches, agency owners and small business owners who sell a product or service and want customers coming in every week without chasing them. No marketing background needed. If you already run funnels, you will leave with the AI workflow that cut our build time by 80 percent.

Bring: a notebook and one offer you sell, or want to sell, for under $100.

Where: online. The link appears here once you RSVP "Going." About 60 minutes including Q&A, no cost.

This is a Bridges Network event, hosted across all of our city groups at once. Because of the size of the audience, it runs as a one-to-many presentation with a Q&A session at the end. Attendee microphones will stay off; questions go through the chat and we answer as many as we can.

There will be an offer made at the end of the session for those who want to go deeper. You do not need to buy anything to get the full strategy. Everything described above is covered before the offer.

A startup and a small business need completely different plans, money and mindsets, and mixing them up is one of the most expensive mistakes founders make. This session helps you work out which one you are building and what that means for your next move. Your host: Milana from the Bridges Network.

What we'll cover:
• The real difference, beyond the buzzwords
• How each one is funded, grows and pays its founders
• Warning signs you are building the wrong one
• Where AI changes the picture for both
• Open Q&A on your own situation

Who it's for: London founders, owners and aspiring founders who want to understand the money side of building a company. No finance background needed.

Bring: a notebook and the business you run or want to start.
