Beginner-Friendly AI Tools That Run My Business While I’m at Work (or With My Kids)
Life is busy. I’m a mom of three, working two jobs, and still building my online business. Spoiler alert: I don’t have extra hours in the day. But I do have AI tools that quietly handle the chaos while I’m at work… or chasing kids around the house. If you’ve been curious about AI but don’t know where to start, these are the beginner-friendly tools I use daily to keep my business running on autopilot.
Tool #1: ChatGPT – My 24/7 Idea Machine
I call ChatGPT my “invisible co-worker.” It brainstorms blog topics, writes email drafts, helps me research trends, and even gives me step-by-step instructions when I’m stuck. The best part? I don’t need to be a tech genius. I literally type what I want in plain English, and it delivers.
Tool #2: Microsoft Copilot – Work Smarter in Word & Excel
Copilot feels like upgrading your brain inside Microsoft Office. It builds budgets, summarizes meeting notes, and even writes first drafts of reports. If you already use Word or Excel, Copilot plugs right in—it’s like having an assistant who actually likes spreadsheets.
Tool #3: Canva Magic Studio – Design Without the Stress
Designing graphics used to eat up hours. Now? Canva’s Magic Studio generates templates, social posts, and even presentations in seconds. I can make something that looks pro-level while standing in line at Target.
Bonus Tool: Systeme.io – My All-in-One Business Hub
This is the backbone of my business. Systeme.io hosts my website, my funnels, and my email automations all in one place. No juggling five different platforms—just drag, drop, and done.
Wrap-Up
These aren’t just tools—they’re time-savers that make space for real life. If you’re ready to set up your own business on autopilot, I put together my Autopilot Starter Pack, a free guide with all my go-to tools, prompts, and systems.
