Hi Reader,

An AI clone isn’t a chatbot.
It’s not a custom GPT.
And it’s not automation.

This matters, especially for experts whose value (and money) comes from their knowledge and judgment.

Over the last year, I’ve watched more experienced business owners hit the same wall:
their content is solid, the courses are built, but implementation is still a bottleneck, and support still goes back to them.

This week’s podcast episode explains why that’s happening and it leads directly into the live session I’m hosting next week.

👇


🎧 NEW PODCAST EPISODE

In this episode of the Creator’s MBA podcast, I break down what an AI clone actually is, how it’s different from chatbots and custom GPTs, and where it fits inside an expert business.

More importantly, I explain what clones are designed to do, apply judgment consistently, and why they only work when your frameworks and decision logic are already clear.

If you’ve ever found yourself repeating the same guidance (“you’re skipping a step,” “this isn’t the problem yet,” “don’t change the offer”), this episode will have you saying, "now I get it".

🎓 FREE LIVE SESSION

This conversation continues… live.

I’m hosting a free info session for experienced creators, educators, and experts who want their expertise to scale without more content, more live calls, or more upkeep.

February 18th at 1 PM ET
Virtual • Live + replay available

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • Why the course model struggles with follow-through now (even when the content is good)
  • How delivery models are changing for experienced experts
  • Where AI fits and where it absolutely doesn’t
  • What scalable support actually looks like going forward

Facilitated by me,
Dr. Destini Copp
Marketing professor and AI implementation consultant

🔎 A QUICK LENS (WHY THIS MATTERS)

Most people think scaling expertise means creating more.

More lessons.
More modules.
More courses.

In reality, the breakdown isn’t content… it’s delivery.

People don’t struggle because they didn’t watch the video.
They struggle when they need to apply the thinking inside their own situation.

That’s the gap this session addresses.


📌 BOOKMARK-WORTHY READ

If you want a deeper explanation of how AI clones fit into this shift, without tool-chasing, this article lays it out clearly.

It covers:

  • What an AI clone actually is (and isn’t)
  • Why experts are rethinking delivery models
  • How judgment can scale without being automated away

📚 OPTIONAL FOLLOW-UP READING

If this topic resonates, you may also want to save:

Each explores a different angle of the same shift.

If you’ve been feeling like “something about how we deliver expertise needs to change,” you’re not imagining it.

This free session is where I’m unpacking what’s breaking, and what’s replacing it, in real expert businesses.
