AI Consulting — San Diego & Nationwide
I Install AI Systems That Give Business Owners Their Weekends Back
San Diego’s AI consultant for small business owners, STR operators, and service businesses — without the complexity or the 6-month learning curve
Sound Familiar?
You're successful—but you're also exhausted. Here's what I hear from business owners every day:
"I'm drowning in busywork"
You spend hours on emails, reports, and admin tasks. The important work—strategy, growth, sales—keeps getting pushed to "tomorrow."
"AI is overwhelming"
ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, automations... Everyone says you need AI, but you don't have time to learn 15 new tools just to save time.
"I can't hire my way out"
Another employee means another $50K+ salary, training, management, and headaches. You need output, not overhead.
Here's the thing: AI can solve all three problems.
You just need someone to install it for you.

ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Christian Johnston
Also known as That One AI Guy on Instagram and TikTok, where I teach 100,000+ followers how to actually use AI.
I've helped 50+ businesses install AI systems that work. Not "AI that sounds cool in a meeting." AI that saves real hours, every single day.
My approach is simple: cut through the hype, focus on practical applications, and build systems you'll actually use. No buzzwords. No fluff. Just results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is AI consulting?
AI consulting helps businesses identify opportunities to leverage artificial intelligence for automation, efficiency, and growth. I evaluate your workflows, find AI opportunities, and build custom systems that actually work.
How quickly will I see results?
Most clients have working AI systems handling real tasks by Day 7. The full 4-week transformation gives you a complete AI-powered workflow that saves 15-25 hours per week.
Do I need technical skills?
If you can copy-paste and click a mouse, you can use these systems. I have taught 64-year-olds who still use flip phones. The systems I build are designed for business owners, not developers.
What if it doesn't work for my business?
I offer the 10-Hour Guarantee: if you don't save at least 10 hours in your first month, I will refund your entire investment. You keep everything we built.
