Most people are talking about AI.
Andrew Hazen is teaching people how to build businesses with it.
At the AI Build Workshop, Hazen is showing entrepreneurs, marketers, and professionals how to go from idea → domain → website → marketing system in a single session using AI.
No coding.
No expensive developers.
No six-month learning curve.
Just build.
Who Is Andrew Hazen?
Andrew Hazen is not a tech theorist.
He’s a serial entrepreneur and internet marketing pioneer who has been building businesses on domain names since 1998. Andrew founded Prime Visibility, a full-service search engine marketing company that grew to 57+ employees and was recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America (2007 & 2008).
He sold Prime Visibility at an eight-figure valuation in 2007. The company was later acquired by blinkx plc for $36 million in cash — giving Andrew a second exit from the same company he built from scratch.
He’s managed over $30M in Google Ad Spend, brokered domain sales up to $1M+. This workshop is his exact AI-powered process for taking ideas live, compressed into 2 hours.
And that’s exactly what the AI Build Workshop teaches.
The Problem Most Entrepreneurs Face
Almost everyone knows AI is important.
But most people are stuck asking the same question:
“How do I actually use it to build something?”
There’s no shortage of AI tools.
ChatGPT.
AI website builders.
Automation platforms.
AI marketing tools.
But tools alone don’t build businesses.
Execution does.
That’s where the AI Build Workshop comes in.
The Workshop: Build First, Learn While Doing
Instead of teaching theory, Andrew Hazen’s workshop focuses on one thing:
Building something real.
Participants learn a simple framework that Hazen has used repeatedly in digital ventures:
Idea → Domain → AI Tools → Website → Marketing → Launch
During the workshop, attendees learn how to:
• Turn a simple idea into a viable business concept
• Use AI to generate a brand, business model, and strategy
• Launch a functioning website quickly
• Create AI-powered marketing systems
• Automate content creation and promotion
By the end of the session, the goal is simple:
You leave with a real project — not just notes.
AI Is the Biggest Entrepreneurial Shift Since the Internet
Hazen believes artificial intelligence represents a transformation similar to the early internet.
In the mid-1990s, businesses had two options:
-
Ignore the internet
-
Learn it early
The companies that embraced it early changed the world.
Today, AI is creating a similar opportunity.
One person using modern AI tools can now do the work that once required:
-
web developers
-
marketing teams
-
designers
-
analysts
This means individuals can now launch businesses faster and cheaper than ever before.
Why Long Island Entrepreneurs Should Pay Attention
Long Island has always been built on entrepreneurs.
Restaurants.
Service businesses.
Startups.
Media companies.
But the next generation of businesses will likely be AI-powered digital companies.
Andrew Hazen believes the region’s entrepreneurs should be learning these tools now — not five years from now.
That’s one of the reasons he created the workshop.
To help local business owners and aspiring founders move faster and experiment with new opportunities.
Who Should Attend
The AI Build Workshop is designed for people who want to move quickly.
Typical attendees include:
Entrepreneurs
Small business owners
Marketers
Students and creators
Startup founders
Professionals who want to future-proof their careers
Anyone who has ever said:
“I have a business idea but don’t know how to build it.”
The Bottom Line
The biggest mistake people are making with AI today is waiting.
Waiting to understand it.
Waiting until the technology feels easier.
Waiting until someone else figures it out first.
Andrew Hazen’s message is simple:
Start building now.
Because the entrepreneurs experimenting with AI today will be the ones creating the next generation of businesses tomorrow.
And the AI Build Workshop on April 28th from 6:30pm to 8:30pm in Huntington is designed to help them start.
