Happy , Northern Nevada! 👋

Quick question for business owners: When's the last time you asked whether your team is actually ready to use AI — not just whether you have access to it?

There's a big difference between buying an AI tool and being ready to use it safely.

A few things worth checking:
✅ Do you know what data your AI tools can see?
✅ Are employee permissions set up correctly?
✅ Do you have a usage policy?
✅ Have you thought about compliance — especially if you're in healthcare?

Most businesses are already using AI in some form. The goal isn't to slow that down — it's to make sure it's working for you, not against you.

We put together a full breakdown on the blog. Worth a read if you're navigating this right now 👇

Having trouble choosing between OneDrive and Sharepoint when storing your files?

Think “my work” vs. “our work.”

Use OneDrive when a file belongs mainly to you, like a draft, note, or individual work file. Use SharePoint when your team needs shared access, long-term availability, or one central place for the final version.

A good rule: start in OneDrive, then move to SharePoint when the file becomes team content.

Are you utilizing AI skills in your AI usage? Not sure what AI skills are? 🤔

Skills are reusable shortcuts for specific, repeatable tasks, such as summarizing notes or formatting a document in a certain way. They can include built-in instructions, examples, resources, and even code that AI loads when relevant, so you don't have to explain the same process from scratch.

If you find yourself giving AI the same instructions over and over, a Skill may be able to do that work for you! 📲
