Your Coach Pat Miller

You're in the Right Place if you want to learn to save time and make money with Claude.

Hi, I'm Pat Miller. I run a small business, lead a small business community, and host a daily live show for small business owners. I use Claude every single day to do the kind of work that used to eat my week. I'm not a developer or an AI consultant flown in from Silicon Valley. I'm an owner just like you saving over 20 hours each week with Claude Cowork and I want to show you how it's done.

The "wait, you can do that?" list

What owners are actually using Claude for.

Claude is not a search engine and it's not a chatbot toy. It's a junior employee that can sit at your desk and help you run your business. The owners I work with are using Claude to:

Train Claude to perform repetitive work that saves hours each week
Schedule tasks that create opportunity or simplify the daily grind
Create dashboards and calculators to simplify scattered information
Research for leads, speaking gigs, grants, and more
Write client proposals, follow-ups, and emails in their own voice
Clean up and rewrite messy SOPs so a new hire could actually follow them
Prep for client calls in 5 minutes instead of 45
Scan email, documents, and folders to connect disconnected information for faster decision making

The training I offer teaches you how to actually do this in your business, not in a hypothetical one. We start with what's eating your week and we install Claude on top of it.

What it feels like to work with me
The session was so, so great. I felt at once taken care of and knew we could go at my slow pace and that there truly were no stupid questions, but I felt called to a higher level, too. Like I could demand a lot of myself and my capacity to understand Claude's capabilities, and could aspire to the level you've built out for your very impressive business. I also just really appreciated how much you care, about me and my business and my confidence and my understanding. You were so present, and that's rare. I would recommend anyone even remotely curious about this stuff to book a session with you.

Real owners. Real Claude wins.

Look at what Pat's training clients are doing.

Win 01

Amber @ Water DoctorsPermit lookups, automated

Amber is automating the process of applying for plumbing permits. Now, her team isn't burning hours on repetitive form workflows. The same Claude in Chrome workflow can handle whatever clicky, copy-pasty thing is eating your week.

Win 02

Rhonda @ Disrupting DivorceBuilt a working site, live on a call

Rhonda built a working website during one of our Mastermind calls just from text prompts. With Claude, you have the power to design and build working sites, apps, and more.

Win 03

Brad @ Vision Forward Business SolutionsBuilt a wage calculator tool

Brad built a wage calculator product for his clients, the kind of branded tool that used to take a developer six months to ship. Brad is not a developer. He's an owner with Claude.

Win 04

Abbie @ Miller Headshot Co.First inbound from AI search

Abbie landed her first inbound job from an AI search after we built out a real FAQ page on her site. AI search is not theoretical anymore. It's already how customers find you.

Win 05

Pat @ Live on a CallInstant Tech Support from Claude Code

Pat watched his own Mac slow to a crawl on a Mastermind call. Claude diagnosed a utility eating 46% of his RAM and fixed it on the spot, in front of the room. That's the kind of moment that changes how an owner thinks about what's actually possible.

Your Turn

Want wins like these in your business?

Pick the path that fits you. You could even get started right away with our Audematic install.

Three Paths

Three ways to train. Pick the one that fits.

All three options are built for owners who want to install Claude into a real working business, not for owners who want to read about AI. Here's how to choose.

Self-Guided · Start Right Now

The Audematic Install

Connect your Claude to Pat's private library for his 10-step program to get you up and running immediately. All you do is connect and say "Start my install."

Your own Claude walks you through the entire setup, one step at a time, with a real win at the end of every step.

By the end, your Claude knows your business, writes like you, watches your inbox, runs a scheduled task, and has a morning dashboard.

  • 10 guided steps to get you started. Done at your own pace, each one ends in a real win
  • The library: monthly module drops, Pat's private AI Trendsletter, the ready-to-run skill shelf
  • Office hours twice a month
$97/month · No install fee
Best for: The owner who wants to get started right now with Pat's system and build at their own pace.
Private · Work One-on-One With Pat

The One-on-One Install

The whole thing, delivered personally at your pace.

Private sessions with Pat, built around your business, with prework so you hit the ground running and custom builds made with you on the call.

  • Three private calls in month one to connect and customize Claude for your business
  • Prework so the calls start productive, not from zero
  • After setup, enjoy five months of access to Pat's server to stay connected to the latest updates
  • One-on-one is limited to two clients per month
Best for: Complex setups, or the owner who needs a little more tech support.

What other owners are saying.

"Being a part of this cohort is such an amazing way to expand and scale my business. It's creating space for innovation. I'm serving my clients better than ever before. I'm thinking differently about operations. And I'm able to focus on my own health and well-being because I'm thinking and working differently, because of how you're helping guide us."

The Fit Test

Be honest about where you are.

Who this is for

  • You own your business and you don't just work in one.
  • You're not a techie. You're an everyday entrepreneur trying to keep up so you don't get left behind.
  • You've used ChatGPT or another AI tool, and your gut tells you installing Claude is the leverage you've been waiting for.
  • You want answers and accountability, not another shelf full of half-finished courses.
  • You're willing to invest a few hours a month to actually implement.
  • You're ready to actually implement, whether that's solo with your own Claude or alongside other owners.
