Your AI Transformation Is Led by Someone Who Lives It
“I’ve been working at the intersection of marketing, communications, and technology for over 15 years. When AI started transforming our industry, I didn’t just read about it – I dove in headfirst.
I use AI tools every single day to run CIPR. Not experimentally. Not occasionally. Every day, for real business tasks that used to take hours.
I’ve trained hundreds of tourism professionals across Canada on practical AI implementation. I founded Tourism AI Network because I saw how much potential was being left on the table – and how much confusion was holding people back.
When you work with CIPR on AI, you’re getting someone who’s been in the trenches. Not a consultant who read a book and made a slide deck. Someone who’s doing the work, every day, for real clients with real results.”

Common Questions About AI Consulting
How long does a typical AI engagement take?
It depends on your goals. AI Intuition Sprints deliver immediate wins in a single focused session. Comprehensive AI roadmap development typically takes 4-6 weeks. Full organizational transformation programs run 3-6 months. We’ll recommend the right approach after understanding your specific situation in our initial strategy session.
What's the investment range for AI consulting?
Training workshops start at $2,500. Strategic consulting engagements typically range from $8,000-$25,000 depending on scope and depth. Custom AI tool development is quoted based on specific requirements. Every engagement begins with a free strategy session so we can give you accurate numbers based on what you actually need.
We're a small team - is AI consulting really worth it for us?
Small teams often see the biggest return on AI investment. When you’re wearing multiple hats, AI can multiply your capacity dramatically. Look at Tourism Chilliwack – a lean team that now uses AI every single day. The ROI is often highest for resource-constrained organizations that need to punch above their weight.
Do we need technical staff to implement AI?
No. Most AI tools we help clients implement require zero coding skills. We focus on practical applications that marketing, operations, and leadership teams can use directly – no IT department required. For custom development needs, we handle the technical side so your team can focus on using the tools, not building them.
What makes CIPR different from other AI consultants?
Two things: industry specialization and practitioner experience. We focus specifically on tourism, hospitality, and service businesses – not generic AI advice that might work for any industry. And we use everything we teach every day to run our own agency. You’re learning from people actually doing the work, not just talking about it.
What if we've already tried AI tools and they didn't work?
That’s incredibly common – and usually fixable. Most failed AI attempts come down to two problems: using the wrong tools for your specific needs, or not knowing how to apply them systematically within your workflows. We’ll audit what you’ve tried, identify what went wrong, and create a path forward that actually sticks.
Ready to See What AI Can Do for Your Business?
No pressure, no pitch – just a conversation about where you are today and what’s possible tomorrow. We’ll give you honest feedback on whether AI consulting makes sense for your situation.
