  Aug 18, 202615 min

  Your Instagram post just got flagged as AI. You're pretty sure you didn't use it. Turns out the background remover in Canva has other ideas. In this episode: Why Meta's flagging content you didn't think involved AI at all - and what's actually triggering it The difference between a fake news article and a background-removed photo that the label can't see - yet Why the algorithm was never the real risk here (and what actually is) The one line missing from your contracts that's about to matter a lot more What a watermark can and can't tell someone about your work Action step: Open your contract template today and add one line naming how you use AI in client delivery - even a rough draft. No lawyer on call? Braden Drake's contract library has ready-made AI clauses. Grab one and adapt it before your next client kicks off. https://notavglaw.com/club Loved this episode? Don't miss out!

  The Documentation Gap That's Making AI Implementation Hard - and How to Fix It

  Jul 28, 202620 min

  If Claude keeps missing the point, it's not the tool. It's that your business only exists in your head, in old Slack threads and in a VA who's been carrying the load for years. In this episode: Why AI keeps getting it wrong - and it's rarely the tool's fault What already exists in your Slack, Asana and Drive that you can hand straight to Claude - no blank page required The two-part system I'm building with a 7 year client - one place that indexes everything, one place that holds it Why letting AI write all your SOPs will cost you your voice How to turn documentation into an hour a week, not a day you never get to Action step: Pick one department in your business. Open Claude and ask it to comb through your Slack, Asana and Drive for anything recurring - a task, a conversation, a process. Don't ask it to write final SOPs yet. Just get it to show you what already exists. Loved this episode? Don't miss out!

  3 Claude workflows that have nothing to do with content

  Jul 21, 202615 min

  You've been using AI to write captions. Meanwhile, Claude is scanning inboxes, pulling reporting data, and blocking calendars at 4am before anyone's desk is warm. Three real workflows running in a real business - none of them have created a single piece of content. In this episode: Why your inbox is the right place to start - and why I wrote a different voice skill just for email responses The reporting task that used to sit on the to-do list for days - now done while she sleeps, no manual clicking required The 4am time blocking workflow that means I sit down to a day already mapped - and why it's my favourite thing running in Cowork right now The difference between a skill and a task in Claude Cowork - and why getting it right keeps your automations clean Why using AI for content is actually the most boring use case (and what to do with it instead) Action step: Pick the admin task you've been putting off the longest - inbox, reporting, scheduling, it doesn't matter. Write down what you'd tell a VA to do. Step by step, what to look for, what to leave alone, what to do if it's not there. That's your Claude brief. Start there this week. Loved this episode?

  How to Set Up Your Brand in Claude Design

  Jul 7, 202617 min

  You open Canva to build something on-brand and just... stare at the blank page. Not because you can't design - because you don't have a designer, and nobody ever taught you how to bridge that gap. There's a tool sitting inside your Claude subscription built to close exactly that gap. In this episode: Why Claude Design isn't a Canva replacement - it's a design system compliance tool, and that distinction changes how you use it The one setup step everyone rushes past that decides whether your outputs look on-brand or just generic Why Claude defaults to rounded corners and pill buttons on everything you ask for - and exactly what you need to tell it to stop The token cost nobody warns you about, and the one setting to flip once your design system is built How to take a Claude Design mock up and actually finish it in Canva, PowerPoint or your website builder Action step: Pull every brand asset out of Canva this week - your colours, your actual font files, your logos, a couple of designs you love. Upload them into a Claude Design design system as PNGs or JPEGs, skip the PDFs, and go through every mock up telling it exactly what to strip out. Loved this episode?

  Claude Pro vs Team Plan - What do you actually need?

  Jun 30, 202616 min

  Your VA is logged into your Claude account. You gave her the password because building out a whole separate login felt like more admin than it was worth. Here's what Anthropic's terms of service actually say about that, and whether upgrading to teams is even the right call for a business your size. In this episode: Why sharing your Claude login is quietly putting your account at risk - and what Anthropic's terms actually say about it The real minimum cost of the teams plan - and why it's built for a business size that isn't yours What shared projects actually change about the way your team works inside Claude The one setting on your personal account that could be exposing your business data right now How to know if two people actually need five seats Action step: Open your Claude account settings this week and check whether Anthropic can train on your conversations. If a team member is working from their own personal account, ask them to check theirs too - don't wait until you've made the teams decision to fix this. Loved this episode?
