Among businesses already using AI, 22% reported significant improvements to their operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But for most business owners, the useful question isn&#8217;t whether AI is going to transform business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s much simpler: where can it save you time right now?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NAB&#8217;s research provides a few clues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Productivity was the most commonly reported benefit of AI, nominated by 58% of SMEs using it. Marketing followed at 46% and customer service at 36%. By comparison, just 9% said profitability was one of the areas benefiting most and 7% nominated revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, the benefits are showing up first in the day-to-day running of the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start with the jobs that keep repeating<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI tends to be most useful when you&#8217;re doing the same type of task again and again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That might mean preparing similar documents, processing information, responding to routine enquiries or turning existing information into a first draft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some practical examples include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Drafting documents. AI can help prepare the first version of a proposal, quote, letter, meeting summary or internal document. You still need to check and finalise it, but you don&#8217;t have to start from a blank page.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Reducing administration. Some tools can help with repetitive jobs such as extracting information from documents, processing invoices, categorising information or moving data between systems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Handling routine customer communication. AI can help prepare responses to common questions, summarise long email chains or draft follow-up messages.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Finding information faster. Instead of manually working through lengthy documents or notes, AI can help summarise information or pull out the points you need.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NAB found business services firms were seeing particularly strong results from AI, noting that information-heavy businesses can use it for repeatable tasks such as document processing, analysis and administrative automation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don&#8217;t start with your hardest job<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There&#8217;s a temptation to look for one big AI system that will suddenly make the whole business more efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For most SMEs, a smaller starting point is likely to be more useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Think about where your team is currently losing time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Is someone spending two hours every Friday compiling information that already exists elsewhere?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are you repeatedly writing similar customer emails?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Does preparing a quote involve copying the same information between several systems?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Are staff spending time summarising documents before they can actually act on them?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those are the kinds of processes worth looking at first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The aim isn&#8217;t necessarily to remove the task entirely. Cutting a 30-minute job to 10 minutes can add up quickly when it happens several times a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep people involved<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI can speed up a process, but that doesn&#8217;t mean you should hand the whole process over to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anything involving judgement, important financial information, confidential information or communication with customers should still have appropriate human oversight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI tools can also make mistakes or produce information that sounds convincing but isn&#8217;t correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So the more important the output, the more important the review process becomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Businesses also need to understand how the tools they use handle their data before entering sensitive business, employee or customer information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Measure whether it&#8217;s actually helping<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the more interesting findings from NAB&#8217;s research is the gap between AI use and AI readiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SMEs rated their workforce&#8217;s preparedness for AI at an average of just 3.8 out of 10, while only 17% considered their workforce highly prepared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So rather than introducing AI across the business at once, it may make sense to test it on one defined process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pick a task. Measure roughly how long it takes now. Trial the tool for a few weeks and compare the result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If it saves meaningful time without creating extra problems, you have something worth building on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bottom line<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI doesn&#8217;t have to transform your business to be useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many SMEs, the immediate opportunity is much more practical \u2013 shaving time off repetitive work, reducing administration and helping staff get through routine tasks faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those individual savings may seem small. But saving 10 minutes here, half an hour there and several hours on a monthly process can eventually create meaningful extra capacity across the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that is probably a better measure of AI&#8217;s value than simply being able to say your business is using it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI is already becoming part of everyday business for many Australian SMEs.
