Welcome in. I’m Chris Smith with All Contractor, and I’m glad you’re here. Some background on us: I spent 10 years in HVAC before we ever started marketing for contractors. That was 2006. Twenty years and hundreds of contractor websites later, we work the same way we always have. No magic boxes, no hidden agendas, and you own everything we build for you. Today we help HVAC, plumbing, and electrical companies grow through marketing, AI automations, training, and consulting. I built All Contractor U because every contractor I talk to is asking the same thing: “What do I actually do with AI?” Most of what’s out there is hype or a sales pitch. This community is the plain answer. The course: AI Foundations to Automations It runs in four parts: 1. AI Foundations. How AI really works, how to write prompts that get usable results, and why AI can sound completely right while being wrong. 2. ChatGPT User Tour. Where everything lives, and how to use research, files, plugins, and skills. 3. Process Audit. How to pick the right process to automate and fix it before you hand it to AI. Our running example is unsold estimate follow-up. 4. Agent Automations. A live demo of department agents working one fictional HVAC shop, with guardrails on every step. You’ll also get the participant workbook and a library of short ChatGPT how-to videos. The Course Intro is free for everyone. Watch it first. The full course is part of Premium. Now it’s your turn. Introduce yourself in the comments: - Your name and company - Your trade (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, or something else) - Where you’re located - One task in your business that eats up your time every week And if you have any questions about the course, ask them here too. There are no dumb questions about AI. I’ll answer every one. Glad you’re here. — Chris
