Your Expertise Is Becoming More Important



Your Expertise Is Becoming More Important

April 26, 2025

It’s true. Your expertise, your knowledge, and your experience are all becoming more important and more valuable. I was reading Justin Welsh’s newsletter article on how basic content is dying (https://www.justinwelsh.me/newsletter/basic-content-is-dying). I agree with this article. And I have an opinion on the topic as well.

We are being flooded with AI generated content to the extent that the content is now largely worthless. If everyone is posting all the same or similar content and no one is posting anything original or innovative, then there is a problem.

This is why your expertise and knowledge is more important now than ever before. We have an incredible opportunity to be original and innovative. We have the chance to be the ones who stand out from the monotonous crowd.

They Have Figured It Out

Here’s something you might not realize. People on social media have figured out how to spot an AI generated post. If you are using AI to respond to a comment, or to comment on a post, or to create a new post, it is likely going to be noticed. Not everyone will see it but many will. And it only takes one. I’m already seeing people being called out for using an AI automated post or response. Talk about damaging your credibility!

The Advantage

Here’s how this situation can actually give you an advantage. AI cannot go stand on a stage and speak about what is in your mind. It can fake a video or an audio podcast of you speaking. But there is always a tell tale sign that it’s fake. Most people can spot the genuine article. Be the genuine article.

Here’s my take on the difference and why you are more valuable.

AI – provides a summation of known facts.

Humans – provide observations, creativity, and experiences.

The human attributes are financially worth more to your ideal customers. Entrepreneurs in all types of businesses have a huge opportunity to profit from the situation. I’m not bashing AI. I’m bashing the misuse of AI. There are some entrepreneurs who are just lazy enough or un-original enough to let AI do all the work for them rather than using it to assist them to do more of their own work.

It Really Is All About You

Don’t sell yourself short. Your customers value you. Not your AI prowess. When all the up front content comes from your prompt writing abilities and then you meet the client in person, what happens? Will you sound different than your content? Will you remember what your content said if you didn’t write it?

This is meant as a cheerleading session for you, your mind, and your expertise. It is valuable. It is unique. Nobody else has your memories, experiences, or creativity. Don’t dilute it.

Things I like to use AI for:

Ideas for ad copy

Research (although not completely reliable)

Assisting with video and audio editing

Bookkeeping (coming soon)

I'm sure I'll find more uses. Any suggestions? I'd love to hear what you use AI for. Send me an email!

Opportunities In West Texas June 28, 2025 This week I’m writing from west Texas. I’m in the Permian Basin meeting with a friend and real estate investor client to look at properties. Why go to west Texas to look for real estate investments? Opportunity. First, I believe Texas is probably the best state for real estate investing. The tax situation, the political climate, the incredible growth, and the pro-business attitudes all combine to create a an amazing investment atmosphere. This is not...

People Friction June 21, 2025 We recently took a survey of business owners at a business expo in the Dallas area. We asked what the biggest challenges were for their business. The top two answers were: Owner Reliance: The owner did so much of the work that the business could not run without the owner. Read my earlier article on that topic here. People Friction: There was always some kind of problem between the employees, with the employees, or between the employees and the owner, etc. The...

A Week With Grandkids-And Other Business Lessons June 14, 2025 This past week we had grandkids staying at our house. Without parents. Just us. Yeah. A week with two children, 7 and 10, 24 hours a day for seven days. Here’s how it went. Drive a 7 hour round trip to pick them up. A day at the splash pad. A day at the park. A day at the museum. A day at the zoo. Endless episodes of Phineas and Ferb. Shopping. Trying to guess what they would eat. Then a sad 7 hour round trip drive to take them...
