Palo Alto AI Kickoff: Build Your Own Lead Follow-Up Assistant

16 September Online

About this event

First session of Palo Alto AI Business Vibes. Let's meet, and let's build something.
Founders and small business owners across the Peninsula lose real money on leads that never get a second message. Today we'll fix that with a reusable AI assistant that drafts your follow-ups for you, built live, no code.
Agenda:
• A round of intros: who you are, what you're building, and where AI fits (or doesn't yet) in your work
• What an "AI assistant with instructions" is (Custom GPTs, Claude Projects, Gemini Gems) and why it beats starting from a blank chat every time
• Build a follow-up assistant together: paste in notes about a lead, get back a 3-message follow-up sequence in your voice
• Test it on a real lead from your own pipeline
Who should come: founders, small business owners and professionals in Palo Alto, Menlo Park, Mountain View and the rest of the Peninsula. Technical or not, you'll leave with something that works.
Bring: a laptop, a ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini account (free works, though some saving features need a paid plan), and anonymized notes from one lead you haven't followed up with yet.
Logistics: online via Google Meet. The link unlocks after you RSVP "Going." 35 minutes, free.

Modern AI roles expect comfort with production-grade code, data fluency, and practical ML tooling. The strongest candidates pair deep technical chops with storytelling—translating model impact to product, GTM, and exec partners. Continuous learning keeps you ahead as stacks evolve.
