Most small business owners already know that artificial intelligence can help them grow. The challenge is not awareness but bandwidth. Between managing daily operations, serving customers, handling finances, and running their own marketing, the average small business owner has little time left to research which AI tools are worth adopting, learn how to use them, and build systems around them. A recent industry study found that while the majority of small business owners expressed interest in integrating AI into their businesses, most cited lack of time and unclear starting points as the primary reasons they had not yet taken action.

The AI for Business Summit was designed to solve both problems at once. The free three-day virtual event, scheduled for Friday, April 17 through Sunday, April 19, 2026, delivers a structured implementation blueprint that compresses months of independent research and trial into twelve hours of focused, guided instruction. Produced by Real Advisors Inc. and founded by four-time Inc. 5000 honoree Francis Ablola, the summit takes place live via Zoom from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time each day and is built specifically for business owners who cannot afford to step away from their companies for a week-long conference or spend months working through self-paced online courses.

The three-day agenda is organized around the areas where AI creates the fastest measurable impact for small businesses. Day one covers AI-powered digital marketing. Attendees will learn how to use artificial intelligence to build and manage paid advertising campaigns, construct automated sales funnels, and optimize customer acquisition without hiring additional staff. Day two shifts to organic growth strategies, featuring sessions on LinkedIn lead generation methods that have produced over one million dollars in documented free advertising exposure and more than 250,000 organic clicks, as well as brand development frameworks that help small business owners position themselves as authorities in their markets. Day three focuses on the operational side, teaching attendees how to use AI for content creation at scale, develop clear messaging strategies, and automate repetitive business processes that currently consume hours of their week.

Each speaker was selected because they operate real businesses and use these systems daily. Francis Ablola, the summit founder, is a four-time Inc. 5000 CEO who sets the strategic framework for all three days. Brian Hanson, a senior strategist at Real Advisors, leads sessions on AI-powered sales systems and conversion strategies. Bernard Ablola presents the LinkedIn organic growth methods behind his documented results. Dolmar Cross, co-founder of Real Advisors and star of the A&E television series Zombie House Flipping Tampa, delivers a keynote on the Instagram viral marketing strategies that took him from online influencer to national television. Keisha Cross, co-star of the A&E series and a veteran ghostwriter for major digital content creators, teaches attendees how to craft a compelling message and transform it into a mission that resonates with their audience.

All sessions are conducted live with real-time demonstrations and open question-and-answer segments. No prior AI experience is required. The event is completely free and open to entrepreneurs, solo operators, coaches, consultants, and service-based professionals across every industry. More than 59,000 professionals have participated in previous AI for Business events. "The number one thing I hear from small business owners is that they know AI matters but they simply do not have the time to figure it all out on their own," said Francis Ablola, founder of the AI for Business Summit. "That is exactly why we built this as a three-day blueprint. Attend the sessions, follow the steps, and walk away with working systems." Those who are unable to attend the April 17-19 sessions are encouraged to register, as additional summit dates will be announced on the same registration page following the event.
