Artificial intelligence is no longer a future concept. It is already changing how garden centres and landscapers market, sell, communicate and operate. Edwin Meijer (Haarlem, Netherlands) has been working with AI for garden centres for years and will share his experience with you!
In this session you will not learn theory or technical jargon. Instead, you will see practical examples: creating product photos without photographers, generating plant descriptions and social media posts, analysing customer reviews, automating customer service and even producing marketing videos within minutes.
We will also look at the limits of AI. When does it fail? What are the risks? And how do you use it responsibly while protecting your data and reputation?
The goal is simple: leave with ideas you can apply the next day in your own business in a responsible way.
