Reserve a seat Workshop syllabus and details
A 4-hour live online workshop. Codex is an AI tool from OpenAI — same subscription as ChatGPT, very different way of using it. Once it knows your business, it drafts your emails, reviews your website, plans your ads, and chips away at the admin you've been putting off. We set it up together on your real business. 15 seats. $197 AUD beta pricing — versus $1,600 for the 1:1 version. First 10 buyers lock lifetime access to the full program as it's built.

What's in the seat
Is this for you?
The four hours
Most business owners are using AI like a slightly better search box. Codex isn't that. It can sit inside a project, read your files, follow saved instructions, and keep working across sessions.
Hour one shows you the difference, the install, the basic safety rules, and why the next three hours are worth your morning.
Your services, your customers, your offers, your tone of voice, your real examples — into a clean folder structure Codex can keep coming back to. We do this with your real business in the room, not a fake template.
By the end of the hour, Codex knows your business better than the last contractor you hired.
We build the first set of "skills" together — Website Review, Tone-of-Voice Rewrite, Proposal Draft, Ad Campaign Helper. Once a skill is saved, Codex stops asking the same questions and just does the job.
You'll write one skill from scratch for a job you do every week.
Live review of a real page. A draft of an ad campaign. A messy notes-to-action-plan run. The browser, the screenshots, and the mobile shortcuts that let you steer Codex from a phone.
By 1 pm you've used Codex on every category of work that's been sitting on your list.
What "briefed with your business" looks like
Three illustrations of what happens when Codex has your business in front of it instead of a blank prompt. Same model, same time on task — totally different output. All three workflows are in the workshop.
The opening paragraph of a service site — generic platitudes versus voice-and-specifics.
"Welcome to Local Plumbing! We are a family-owned business with over 20 years of experience servicing the local community. Our friendly and professional team is dedicated to providing the highest quality service to all of our valued customers."
"Blocked drain at 4 pm Friday? We'll be there before the weekend. Quoted up front — what we say is what you pay. Family-run, twenty years on the books."
A brain-dump from a Friday afternoon — turned into something you can actually work on Monday.
"Here are some thoughts to organise: maybe update website, the about page is dated, need new photos, follow up with Sam about the quote, AdWords spending is up, check Tuesday's emails, the Maple St job invoice…"
"This week: Send Sam's quote (revenue at risk). Issue Maple St invoice. Next 3 actions: rewrite About page (1 hr), pull AdWords spend report, book photos. Watch: AdWords up — find which campaign before Friday. Wait: general site refresh until About is done."
The bank-statement subscriptions page — vague "should I cancel?" versus a structured decision per tool.
"It depends on what you use each one for. Canva is great for design but you might not need it if you have other tools. Generally, you should keep what you use and cancel what you don't…"
"Canva ($15): Keep — daily, no overlap. SEO tool ($49): Review — used twice this quarter, Codex covers most of the same jobs. Social scheduler ($29): Cancel candidate — overlaps with the planner already in your CRM. Before cancelling: export your scheduled posts, run one month on the CRM, then decide."
That is the entire premise of the workshop — a re-usable way to brief Codex with what your business actually does, so the output stops sounding like everyone else's.
The four hours, in order
Each segment maps to a module in the workshop structure. Times are approximate — we move at the cohort's pace, but everyone leaves at 1 pm with the same setup in place.
Opening + promise
Module 01 — Codex basics and installation
Module 02 — Business setup and folders
Module 03 — Sessions and working habits
Break
Module 04 — Reusable skills
Module 05 — Website and copy review workflow
Module 06 — Browser, computer use, Appshots, mobile
Module 07 — Implementation plan + Q&A
The deal
If you need to pull out, message me up to 48 hours before the session and the $197 goes back. No form. No "are you sure." After that the seat stays, and you still get the workshop replay, the workbook, and the starter pack. The first-10 lifetime program bonus is locked in at time of purchase.
Codex for Business Owners · Founding cohort
Four hours, live online, fifteen seats. Beta pricing reflects that the larger program is still being built — the first ten buyers lock lifetime access as new modules, replays, templates, and the support group come online.
For context: the 1:1 version of this same setup is $1,600 a day.
Stripe checkout. Refunds up to 48 hours before the session.
Before you book
Nope. If you can use Gmail and a website builder, you're fine. No coding, no terminal, no developer stuff.
No. Some tools are pulling their weight, some aren't. We help you tell the difference — not torch the lot.
No, and anyone promising that in four hours is having a lend of you. You walk out with a working setup, clear next steps, and the confidence to keep going on your own.
No. SkillBuild AI is independent. Codex is the tool we're teaching you to use, not a brand we're affiliated with.
P.S. The first ten buyers of cohort 01 lock lifetime access to the full program as it's built — every later module, replay, template, and the private support group, yours without paying again. After the founding cohort the workshop sells on its own, beta pricing closes, and the $197 number goes up. If you're going to do this, do it in the founding ten.
P.P.S. This whole booking website was also built with Codex — copy, layout, Stripe checkout, member portal, the lot. A few hours of briefing and reviewing, no agency, no developer. The site you're reading is the workshop in action.
