01
A working AI workflow for their actual job.
Not theory. Each attendee leaves with a specific AI-assisted process for something they do every week, quoting, scheduling, follow-up, hiring, content. Role-specific, not generic.

workshops
your members
will actually use.
SAUG runs 90-minute hands-on AI workshops for chambers across the Austin metro. Built for the people who run the business — not developers. Your members leave knowing how to use AI in their actual role, starting the same week.

Round Rock Chamber of Commerce
“Our members left with tools they could use Monday morning. Brian delivered. The Q&A could have run another hour.”

§ 01 — The Workshop
What members get · What you provide
What your members
walk out with.
A SAUG workshop is built around three deliverables. Each one is concrete enough that a member could describe it back to a colleague the next morning.
02
The vocabulary to evaluate tools on their own.
Context engineering. Workflow design. Tool selection. Your members stop asking “is this the right tool?” and start deciding for themselves.
03
A clear next step that costs them nothing.
Everyone leaves with a menu of ways to go deeper. A discovery call, team training, or nothing at all. Zero pressure, no pitch from the stage.
You bring a room. We bring everything else.

About SAUG.
Strategic AI Upskilling Group is an Austin-based AI consulting practice focused on making AI usable for small and mid-sized business teams. Brian Bruner founded SAUG after a decade running operations inside small businesses where AI was constantly talked about but rarely adopted, and built the practice around closing the gap between AI awareness and AI action inside a single workshop. Recent work includes an active training engagement with the City of Round Rock Facilities team.
