The Makia Playbook for Small Business Owners

The game gets your team to decisions. The book is the method behind them — written for owners of small businesses who have no AI department, no budget for one, and a Monday morning to get through. Same five phases, same 55 cards, with the reasoning, the examples and the failure modes the deck can only hint at.

What is inside

Seven chapters, one working method

01

Monday morning, honestly

Why most AI adoption stalls in small teams: no owner, no decision, no second week.

02

Mind mapping the work

Finding the meaning and the actors before the tools. What the business actually does all day.

03

Activate creativity

Running the divergent half without drowning in ideas nobody will build.

04

Kickstart prototyping

The smallest thing you can put in front of a real customer or a real colleague this week.

05

Iterate with intention

Impact, alignment and the honest questions that kill a bad pilot early.

06

Adopt systems

Turning one working experiment into a process the team keeps running without you.

07

The deck, card by card

All 55 cards, when to play them, and the conversations each one is designed to force.

Free chapter

Read chapter one before you buy anything

“Monday morning, honestly” — why AI adoption stalls in small teams, and the three questions that unstick it. We will send it over, and let you know once the full playbook is out.

Start with the deck

The workshop is free and takes an hour

No account, nothing to install. Run the five phases with your team, leave with decisions that have names on them — then read the book to understand why it worked.
