Webinar Description:

As a BVFLS professional, you seek ways to maintain a competitive edge … and there is a ton of potential to be explored with AI. This session will showcase three BVFLS/AI-ready tools: Google’s NotebookLM and ChatGPT’s Projects and Canvas add-ins. These tools offer low-friction, high-access features that give BVFLS professionals a way to combine document drafting, reasoning, formatting, and revision in one place when speed and flexibility matter. You just need to choose which one will work best for you! If AI for BVFLS is on your mind and you’re looking to move past the hype and integrate AI into your workflows, this session is the one you’ll want to attend.

Learning Objectives:

Participants will: 

  • Review the capabilities of NotebookLM, Projects, and Canvas 
  • Observe live demos to see how these AI tools can be used for BVFLS tasks 

Handouts:

  • VPS Webinar slides
  • Following the webinar, attendees will have access to a video recording of the program

About the Presenter:

Rod BurkertA

In one way, shape, or form Rod has been performing business valuations since the late 1980s. In July 2000, Rod started Burkert Valuation Advisors in Philadelphia where he ran a “traditional” valuation practice … specializing in tax purpose valuations for manufacturers and distributors.

From March 2010 to March 2022 (12 years!), Rod traveled full-time in an RV throughout the US and Canada with his wife and dogs. When he saw the possibilities of a location-independent practice, he began coaching to help others transform their BVFLS firms.

Rod has since settled in Bisbee, AZ and focuses solely on practice management coaching. And when the first “real” AI model rolled out in late 2022, he saw the potential that AI could have for the BVFLS profession. That began a journey of self-learning and experimentation, culminating in Rod’s launching his AI for BV newsletter and AI implementation services. His mission: Turn the practice you have into the practice you want … with an assist from AI.
