One Week In, and People Are Already Building

I need to tell you what just happened, because I am still a little amazed by it.

We just wrapped the first week of our free AI training, and it was not what most people expect from a free event. People did not show up and watch. They learned, they understood, they built, and they walked away using AI agents they created themselves. In one week.

That is the part I want you to really hear. These were not demos someone ran for them. These are working tools, built by accountants, bookkeepers, consultants, and business owners who a week ago were not sure where to start.

What people actually did

The range is what got me.

Some came in curious and left with their own agents running on their real work. They did not borrow a tool, they built one, understood how it works, and put it into play on the actual tasks they do every day.

Consultants turned it into money. More than one walked away with a brand new, active line of revenue, offering AI-powered services they simply could not have offered a week earlier. Not someday. Now.

Individuals started something new. People used the week as the launchpad for a brand new business built around AI, going from an idea to a real plan they are already executing.

And accounting professionals went all in. Some finished the free week and immediately enrolled their entire teams, because once they saw what one person could do with this, they wanted everyone to have it.

The part that does not show up in a screenshot

Here is what I did not fully expect: the energy. People sharing what they built, comparing notes, troubleshooting together, cheering each other on. So much was shared, learned, and implemented that the week took on a life of its own. That is the whole point of doing this live and together, and it is exactly what keeps happening inside our community afterward.

AI does the typing. You make the judgment calls. But learning it alongside other people who are figuring it out at the same time is what makes it stick.

You have not missed it

If you are reading this thinking you should have been there, here is the good news: you can still be. We have two more free weeks open, the same full experience, live with AI guru Steve Cunningham, five days, going from using AI agents to building your own:

• August 24 to 28
• August 31 to September 4

You keep one free AI agent for every day you show up live, up to five. Live or replay, on your own schedule. Free, no card, nothing renews. And you are welcome to bring your team.

Grab your week here: https://humansplusagents.ai/legacy-sbc-aia

Want to start right now? Claim a free AI agent of your choice and see everything we have built: https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/build-a-bundle. And our free community, where all of this sharing and building keeps going, is here: https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/community

One week. Real agents, real revenue, real businesses, whole teams. That is what happens when you stop reading about AI and start building with it.

Come build with us. Let's share, learn, and grow.

Why We're Giving Away a Full Free Week of AI Training

People keep asking me the same question, and I love that they ask it: "Why are you giving away an entire week of AI training for free?"

The honest answer goes back further than AI. It goes back to why I started Legacy Small Business Consulting in the first place.

Why I built Legacy the way I did

I did not start Legacy to be the most expensive firm in the room. I started it to help. To educate. And to keep good financial guidance affordable and within reach for businesses of every size, not just the ones who could afford a big firm's rates.

That belief has never changed. The small business owner, the solo bookkeeper, and the growing practice all deserve the same quality of help as anyone else. Educating the people we serve has always been part of who we are. We do not hoard what we know and hand it out by the hour. We teach it, because people who understand their tools make better decisions, and better decisions build stronger businesses.

Why AI for Accounting exists

When AI arrived, I did not read a few articles and start repeating the headlines. My team and I went in deep. We did the work. We built our own agents, tested them on real work inside our own companies, learned exactly what AI could do and where it fell short, and lived with it until it was second nature.

And it worked. It gave us time back. It made the work better. It let us serve more people without burning anyone out. AI does the typing. You make the judgment calls.

Once we had proven that on ourselves, keeping it to ourselves felt wrong. So we built AI for Accounting for one reason: to share it. Not the hype, not the jargon, not a fifty-thousand-dollar tech stack. The real, practical version, taught by people who have already gone deep and come out the other side with something that actually works.

That is why this week is free. Charging a fortune to learn the most important skill of this decade would be the opposite of everything I stand for. So we took the cost off the table.

Who this is for

This is for you whether you:

• Already run a business and want your team more productive
• Want to start a business, or even build your own AI company
• Want to add AI services to what you already offer
• Want to open new revenue streams
• Simply want to finally understand how to use AI

You do not need to know how to code. You do not need to be an AI expert. You just need to be willing to learn.

What you actually get

This is not a one-hour webinar. It is a full Black Belt Training Sprint, free for you and your entire team, led live by AI guru Steve Cunningham.

Over the week you go from using AI agents to building your own, on the real work you do every day. Show up live and you keep one free AI agent for every day you attend, up to five for the week. No cost, no card, nothing that renews. And if you cannot make a session, every day is recorded, so you can watch the replays on your own schedule.

Bring your team. Learn together. Then start looking at where AI can make a difference in the work you are already doing.

Pick your week

We opened three weeks so you can choose the one that fits:

Week 1 — August 17 to 21, 2026 Register by Friday, August 14, 11:59 PM ET. Access through Sunday, August 23.

Week 2 — August 24 to 28, 2026 Register by Friday, August 21, 11:59 PM ET. Access through Sunday, August 30.

Week 3 — August 31 to September 4, 2026 Register by Friday, August 28, 11:59 PM ET. Access through Sunday, September 6.

Claim your full free week here: https://humansplusagents.ai/legacy-sbc-aia

Why now

AI is not something coming someday. It is already here. The businesses and professionals who learn to combine what they already know with what AI can do are going to have opportunities that simply did not exist before. That is the whole reason we opened the doors, and opened them free.

Start today

If you want a taste before the week even begins, you can claim a free AI agent right now at https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/claim-agent, and join our free community, where the trainings, replays, and everything new lives, at https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/community.

There is no catch. There is just the reason I started all of this: to help, to educate, and to keep the door open for everyone. This is me keeping that promise, a full week at a time.

Don't just watch AI happen. Learn from people who are already doing it, then learn how to do it yourself. I will see you in the room.

Warmly,

Yvonne Founder and CEO of Legacy Small Business Consulting CFO of Simple Academy Co-founder of AI for Accounting

Why We’re Giving Away a Full Week of AI Training — FREE

Why We’re Giving Away a Full Week of AI Training — FREE

People keep asking us:

“Why are you giving away an entire week of AI training for FREE?”

The answer is simple.

Because AI is changing the way we work, build businesses, manage teams and create income — and we know this because we have done it in our own businesses.

We aren't teaching something we read about.

We use AI in our own companies. We have implemented it, tested it, built with it and seen firsthand what it can do.

Now we want to give other business owners, teams and entrepreneurs the opportunity to experience it too.

Who Is This For?

Whether you:

- Already own a business

- Have a team you want to make more productive

- Want to open a business

- Want to create your own AI company

- Want to add AI services to what you already offer

- Want to create new revenue streams

- Simply want to understand how to use AI

This is the way to get started.

You don't need to know how to code.

You don't need to be an AI expert.

You just need to be willing to learn.

Why Are We Doing It for FREE?

Because we've already seen what happens when you actually put AI to work inside a business.

We've done it in our own businesses.

We've taken processes that used to consume valuable time and found better ways to do them.

We've used AI to create efficiencies, improve systems, support our teams and open new opportunities.

And we've learned something very important along the way:

You don't truly understand the power of AI until you start using it.

That's why we don't want to just tell you about AI.

We want you to experience it for yourself.

We're removing the cost barrier and giving you an entire week to learn, experiment and see what's possible.

A FULL Week of Black Belt Training — FREE

This isn't a one-hour webinar.

You're getting access to a full Black Belt Training Sprint — FREE for you AND your entire team.

And we're giving you 3 different weeks to choose from.

WEEK 1: AUGUST 17–21, 2026

Register by Friday, August 14 at 11:59 PM ET

Access remains available through Sunday, August 23 at 11:59 PM ET.

WEEK 2: AUGUST 24–28, 2026

Register by Friday, August 21 at 11:59 PM ET

Access remains available through Sunday, August 30 at 11:59 PM ET.

WEEK 3: AUGUST 31–SEPTEMBER 4, 2026

Register by Friday, August 28 at 11:59 PM ET

Access remains available through Sunday, September 6 at 11:59 PM ET.

Can't Attend Every Session Live? That's Okay.

Attend the training LIVE or watch the REPLAYS.

Choose the week that works for your schedule.

Bring your team.

Learn together.

Then start looking at where AI can make a difference in the work you're already doing.

This Isn't Theory. We've Done It.

That's what makes this training different.

We're not standing on the sidelines telling businesses what we think AI might be able to do.

We've implemented it in our own businesses.

We've learned what works.

We've learned what doesn't.

And we've seen what can happen when you combine real business experience with the power of AI.

Now we're giving you the opportunity to do the same.

AI Isn't Just for Tech Companies

It's for the small business owner who needs more hours in the day.

It's for the company that wants to grow without constantly adding overhead.

It's for the team buried in repetitive work.

It's for the person who's always wanted to start a business.

And it's for the entrepreneur who sees the opportunity happening right now and says:

“I want to build an AI company.”

Whether you have a business, have a team, want to open a business or want to create an AI company — this is the way to start.

Why Now?

AI isn't something that's coming someday.

It's already here.

The businesses and professionals who learn how to combine their existing knowledge and experience with AI are going to have opportunities that simply didn't exist before.

That's why we're opening the doors.

One full week.

Live training + replays.

Three weeks to choose from.

You + your entire team.

FREE.

A Full Free Week of AI — On Me. Not an Hour. A Week.

Let me say this plainly, because I believe it: I am so sure you need this, want this, and can use this — that I am giving you a full free week of AI training. Not a one-hour workshop. A week.

Here is what happened. We had a free workshop on the calendar for this Friday, and the response was so big it caught me off guard. So I made a decision. Instead of giving you sixty minutes and sending you on your way, I am giving you five days. Friday's workshop is cancelled, and everyone is coming to the free week instead. Because an hour can show you what is possible. A week can actually change how you work.

Why this is a big deal right now

And here is the shift I want you to hear clearly: this is not just about accounting anymore. It is for everyone, and their teams. However you work, whatever you do, wherever your team spends its hours — AI has gone from a curiosity to the single biggest lever available to you. The world moved faster, expectations went up, and the people who learn to use this now are not just saving time — they are building a different kind of business, a different kind of career, a different kind of day.

That is the opportunity, and it is genuinely rare: a real, structured, no-cost chance to learn it, understand it, and grow with it — you and your people together — guided live, with folks at every level right there in the room with you.

Week 1 started yesterday, and the clarity it is already giving the people who joined is honestly unreal. That is not marketing language. That is what happens when you stop reading about AI and start building with it.

The transformation, in three steps

This is not a demo you watch. It is a path you walk. Here is the shape of it:

Step 1 of 3 — Train You and Your People. Start with the fundamentals and get fluent. You and your team learn what AI can actually do, in plain accounting language, so the mystery disappears and the confidence shows up.

Step 2 of 3 — Build Operating Loops. This is where it gets real. You build the repeatable systems — the loops — that run the work for you, again and again, without you doing it by hand each time.

Step 3 of 3 — Run the Transformation Plan. You put it to work in your own practice or business, and you leave with a plan you are already executing, not a folder of notes you will never open.

Train. Build. Run. That is how an hour of curiosity becomes a practice that operates differently.

What you actually get

Live sessions every single day, led by AI guru Steve Cunningham, who runs the room and walks you through it in real time. Real AI agents on real work — the actual tasks you and your team do every day, not theory. And here is the part people do not quite believe until they see it: you keep one free AI agent for every day you show up live, up to five for the week. No cost. No card. Nothing that renews. You walk away with working tools and a new skill, whether you continue with us or not.

And if you genuinely cannot do it yourself? Send someone. A team member, a business partner, a right-hand person — anyone whose work would be better with this. This is built for teams, and the person you send will come back with something the whole operation benefits from.

Pick your week

Week 1 (August 10–14) is FULL — it filled so fast that we opened two more weeks. Pick whichever fits your schedule:

• August 17–21
• August 24–28

Claim your full free week here: https://humansplusagents.ai/legacy-sbc-aia

I would grab your spot now — these are filling quickly, and when a week is full, it is full until the next round.

One more thing

If you want to keep going after the week, our free community is where the trainings, replays, and everything new lives — and members get 50% off every AIA product we build: https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/community

But start with the week. It is free, it is five days, and I built it because I am certain it is worth your time.

Learn it. Understand it. Grow with it. I will see you in the room.

Warmly,

Yvonne Founder and CEO of Legacy Small Business Consulting CFO of Simple Academy Co-founder of AI for Accounting

 

5 Things Accountants Get Wrong About AI (Come See for Yourself Friday)

Most people who skip an AI workshop do not skip it because they are not curious. They skip it because somewhere in the back of their mind is a quiet doubt: this probably is not for me, or my firm, or my clients.

I hear those doubts all the time, and honestly, most of them are reasonable. So instead of telling you AI is amazing, let me name the five things I hear most, tell you what is actually true, and then invite you to watch the real thing in action this Friday.

Myth 1: "AI is going to replace accountants."

This is the big one, so let me be direct. AI is very good at the repetitive, rules-based parts of the work, categorizing transactions, chasing documents, reconciling accounts, drafting the same emails. It is not good at judgment, relationships, or standing behind a number in front of a client or the IRS.

What actually happens is not replacement, it is subtraction of the busywork. The accountants who learn this are not losing their jobs, they are losing the tasks they never liked and taking on more clients or better advisory work with the time they get back. The ones at risk are not the ones who use AI. They are the ones who compete against people who do.

Myth 2: "It is too technical for me."

If you can write a clear email describing what you want, you can run an AI agent. That is genuinely the skill. You are not coding, you are delegating, the same way you would brief a new team member, except this one works in seconds and never gets tired.

The reason it feels technical is that most of what you have seen was built by technical people for technical people. Watch it once in plain accounting language and the mystery evaporates. That is a big part of what Friday is for.

Myth 3: "It makes mistakes, so I cannot trust it."

It can, and this is a fair concern, not a myth to wave away. AI will occasionally get something wrong, which is exactly why you never hand it the judgment calls.

The right model is simple: AI does the typing, you make the decisions. A good agent drafts, sorts, extracts, and reconciles, and then you review, the same way you would review a staffer's work. You stay the professional. It just gets you to the review step in a fraction of the time.

Myth 4: "My client data is not safe."

Also a legitimate concern, and one you should take seriously. The answer is not to avoid AI, it is to use it correctly, with the right tools, the right settings, and clear rules about what data goes where. Data security was a real question when firms moved to the cloud too, and the profession worked out how to do it responsibly. This is the same story.

We talk about exactly this at the workshop, because pretending the concern does not exist helps no one.

Myth 5: "It is expensive, and I am not ready to invest."

You do not need to spend a dollar to find out whether this is for you. You can claim a free AI agent today, join a free community, and come to a free workshop, all before you have opened your wallet. Start where the risk is zero, and only invest once you have seen the value with your own eyes.

So come see it with your own eyes, Friday.

The fastest way past a doubt is to watch the thing actually work. That is the whole idea behind our free live workshop.

Friday, August 14 at 11:00 AM CST, hosted with AI guru Steve Cunningham. We will run real AI agents on real accounting work, live, show you where AI fits and where it does not, and send you off with steps you can use on Monday. It is completely free, and everyone who registers gets the replay.

Save your free seat here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/-FWjx8abS9qZ0fmssBubvg

And if you want to start before Friday, at zero cost:

• Claim a free AI agent and try it yourself: https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/claim-agent
• Join our free community, where the trainings and replays live and members get 50% off anything AIA builds: https://aiaccounting.legacysbc.com/community

Bring your doubts. Bring your questions. That is exactly the room this is built for, whether you are an accountant, a bookkeeper, a tax pro, or a business owner.

See you Friday,

Learn, Receive, Implement: Why This Free AI Week Is for You

There is a lot of noise about AI right now, and not much that tells you what to actually do with it. So let me be direct.

This month we are running a free week of AI training, August 10–14. Live sessions every day. And here is the part people do not quite believe until they see it: you get one free AI agent for every day you show up live, up to five for the week. No cost, no card, nothing that renews.

Whether you keep the books, run a business, or want to build a career helping others with AI, there is a reason for you to be in that room. Here are the three big ones.

If you do accounting or bookkeeping

AI is not coming for your work. It is coming for the parts of your work you already dislike.

Think about where your hours actually go: chasing documents from clients, re-keying data, reconciling the same accounts every month, formatting reports, drafting the same client emails you have written a hundred times. None of that is why you got into this profession, and all of it is exactly what a well-built AI agent handles in minutes.

What that gives you back is not just time. It is capacity. The same practice, the same hours, but suddenly you can take on more clients, or serve the ones you have far better, or finally do the advisory work that actually pays. The firms pulling ahead right now are not the ones with the most staff. They are the ones whose people have learned to run AI instead of doing everything by hand.

The catch is that reading about AI does almost nothing. You have to build something, once, with your own hands, before it clicks. That is what this week is for.

If you own a business

You do not need to become a technical person to get real value from AI. You need to understand what it can take off your plate, and how to point it at the right problems.

Most business owners are sitting on hours of repeatable work every week: quotes and proposals, invoice follow-ups, customer replies, scheduling, summarizing numbers they do not have time to read. An AI agent can carry a surprising amount of that, and once you have seen one work, you start spotting opportunities everywhere.

Come to the week and you will leave understanding your own operation better, with at least one agent already working for you. Even if you only catch a single session, you walk away with a tool you keep. That is a good trade for an hour.

If you want to become an AI consultant

This is the opportunity almost nobody is talking about yet.

Every business owner and every firm you know is about to need help figuring this out. The demand is enormous and the supply of people who can actually build and implement is tiny. That gap is a career, and it is wide open right now.

You do not need a computer-science background. You need to be able to understand a business problem, build an agent that solves it, and show someone how to use it. That is a learnable skill, and this week teaches it from the ground up. You go from using AI to building and delivering it, which is exactly the jump that turns curiosity into income.

Learn. Receive. Implement.

That is the whole shape of the week, and it is why it works.

You learn in live sessions each day, from the fundamentals to building your own agent. You receive a free AI agent for every day you show up live, up to five, so you leave with real tools, not just notes. And you implement: you put what you built to work for you, your business, and even your life, while it is still fresh.

Most training gives you the first one and stops. This gives you all three.

Join us this month

The free AI week runs August 10–14, with live sessions every day. Registration closes today, Friday, August 7 at 5:00 PM ET — so if you have been thinking about it, this is the moment.

Learn, receive, implement. I will see you in the room.
