#343: You’re Using AI Wrong—and It’s Costing You Time & Money | Build with Operators, Part 1
Description
You’re using AI to write emails. What if it could handle the work that’s eating your entire day?
In Episode 343 of The Kash and Dash Show, we kick off Build with Operators, an eight-part AI series featuring Neil Galas and Collin Schwartz. They share how they’re putting AI to work inside their businesses—and why getting better results starts with giving it better context.
Neil breaks down how he turned a full day of bank statement processing into roughly 15 minutes and built a system that pulls loan updates from company emails into one searchable dashboard. Collin shares how his team tackled projects in 24 hours that would normally fill a 90-day planning cycle. Ted also shares how digging into his Airbnb data with AI uncovered opportunities to rethink his pricing.
Inside this episode:
• Why generic prompts produce generic results.
• How to give AI the background it needs to understand your business.
• Which repetitive tasks are good candidates for automation.
• The 10/80/10 approach: set the vision, let AI do the heavy lifting, then review the result.
• How the guests choose between ChatGPT, Claude, and other AI tools.
• Why permissions, boundaries, and human review matter when connecting business systems.
The goal: get your time back, remove bottlenecks, and put your team’s energy where it matters most.
Want help putting this into practice? Neil and Collin are hosting a two-day Build with Operators AI workshop November 5–6 for business operators. Learn the foundations, identify what’s slowing your business down, and work on building a tool for your company.
