Special Guests: Monique Carile & Brad Walker from Midasweb.com (AI + Automation)
Brad shares that Midasweb began in 2000 as a web design/social media/SEO company and evolved sharply after the launch of ChatGPT (late 2022). He explains they quickly shifted into teaching business owners how to use AI to scale operations. He credits Monique—an educator and business coach—for strengthening Midasweb’s workshop-based training model and day-to-day operations.
Monique explains their approach is hands-on and interactive: they offer free workshops twice a month to introduce AI + automation, and they work “in the trenches” with business owners to tailor systems to real needs. Their core idea: AI creates the content/strategy, and automation distributes and executes—“like a hand and glove.”
What AI Actually Helps With (Concrete Examples)
The guests emphasize AI is more than content creation. Key benefits include:
-
Strategy + performance review: using tools like ChatGPT/Perplexity to analyze last year’s outcomes, identify gaps, and build a stronger plan quickly.
-
Data analysis: turning “seas of data” into actionable decisions without needing a full analytics team.
-
Automation with AI layers: not just “if-this-then-that,” but smart systems that can segment, personalize, escalate issues, and produce natural-language replies—while still using human “sanity checks” for approval.
Monique gives an example of building a large training/onboarding system in one month, work that normally takes a year—while still serving clients and living life.
Training Matters
Brad compares AI training to Excel: most people “use it,” but barely tap its power. One AI class can improve marketing, operations, customer service, and decision-making across the whole business.
Human Authenticity, “AI Rot,” and Guardrails
They address concerns about repetitive AI content (“AI rot”). Their solution: review and refine everything so it matches the user’s real voice and brand. They also discuss safety—AI should not run without human checkpoints, especially in sensitive or regulated contexts.
Updates, Sports, and Events Highlights
The show touches on Houston job opportunities in skilled trades, weather talk, sports updates (NBA trade deadline, Rockets struggles, Super Bowl weekend), and promotes the Viral Networking Conference (Feb 12, Houston) where Midas Web is presenting on AI.
Closing Shout-Outs
They shout out clients (including a hypnotherapist in attendance), family, and Roberto’s production/networking partners. Final message: AI + automation can make business success easier—when used intentionally and authentically
