Bronze Lily Consulting · St. Petersburg, FL · In Person or Virtual
AI automation & websites
for salon and small business owners.
Run your business, not your to-do list. You do not need another saved video about AI. You need help turning the tools into something useful for your business. I work alongside you to set up practical AI assistants, organize everyday tasks and build a clearer path to your website — one focused step at a time.
Less scrolling. More doing.
Your business, built smarter — and a place to 
You have seen the videos. You have saved the tips. But between clients, messages, booking changes and the rest of running a business, figuring out AI becomes one more unfinished task. You may not need more tools. You may need the right starting point — and someone who understands what it takes to run a service business.
Bronze Lily Consulting helps you sort through the noise, choose a useful first project and work on it together. We focus on your real workflow, not a pile of features you will never use.
Whether you are launching something new or cleaning up systems you already use, we begin with what would make your workday easier. You stay involved, understand what is being set up and leave with a clearer next step. The goal is that you do not need me afterwards. One session, maybe two, and the admin that used to eat your evenings gets handled by the assistants we set up while you are busy doing what you actually do — serving clients.
How it works
A focused session. A practical plan, 
Start with your prep worksheet
Before we meet, you complete a worksheet about your business, the tools you use and the tasks that keep getting pushed aside. We use it to identify priorities and choose a realistic session focus. Bring your questions, even if you are not sure how to phrase them.
Work alongside me
We spend a focused three to four hours working through your priorities, depending on the session you choose. We build, connect, test and adjust together. You learn what each part does, so the setup is useful after the session ends — not just impressive during it.
Leave with your next steps
After the session, you receive a summary of what we completed, what still needs attention and a prioritized action plan. Any follow-up or website work beyond the agreed scope is discussed separately.
What we can work on
Projects you will 
These are possible projects. Your worksheet, platform access and available session time determine what we tackle.
- AI assistants with separate jobs, so business questions, bookings, content and research have a clearer home.
- Supported connections between Gmail, Google Sheets and forms to reduce scattered information.
- Online intake forms, waivers and e-signature workflows, with professional review where appropriate.
- Booking trackers that help you see requests, follow-ups and upcoming work in one place.
- Google Business Profile setup, service listings and an accurate presentation of how and where you serve clients.
- Booking and payment platform setup, service pricing and package organization.
- Social media voice guidance so drafts sound more like your business.
- A website blueprint and design brief that give your website project a clear direction.
- A card-processing fee comparison using current published rates and your actual account terms.
The goal
One session. Then you run it 
This is a one-time — sometimes two-time — knowledge dump built to change how you run your business, not the first payment of a plan. You learn what each piece does while we build it, so when the session ends the setup is yours and so is the know-how.
No more daunting admin hours. The assistants we set up take the behind-the-scenes work — the inbox, the booking changes, the follow-ups, the listing, the numbers — and handle it while you are with clients. You get more done in less time, and you stop feeling guilty for spending your day doing the thing you are actually good at.
You can do it all, yourself. You do not need to keep paying the people who show up every week trying to sell you a monthly service plan. You leave able to run and grow the business with the tools in your own hands. If you ever want another hour on a one-off question, it is there — but it is never required.
Websites are a separate thing entirely. Launching a website like mine is a major project of its own, not part of the AI session and not something you need the session for. If that is what you want, we scope it and price it on its own terms. The session can still hand you the website blueprint and design brief that make that project clear before anyone builds anything.
Why work with Larae?
Real AI help from a salon owner who uses it every day — 
I’m Larae Leeson, owner of The Bronze Lily in St. Pete. My business offers spray tans, permanent jewelry, teeth whitening, head spa services and lash lifts. I know what it is like to serve clients while keeping the rest of the business moving.
I use my AI assistants every day to help with the behind-the-scenes work: organizing information from Square, supporting my Google listing, reviewing Google Ads reports, cleaning up payroll information and developing ebooks. My consulting work comes from using these tools in my own business — not just talking about what they might do.
The Bronze Lily has 400+ Google reviews, and I run my own advertising, listings and systems. Now I help other owners find a practical starting point, build useful systems and feel more confident using them.
Real guidance. Real results.
“Working with Larae was one of the best decisions I’ve made since starting my business, SeeBee Movement. In one session we got so much more done than I thought was possible... I walked away feeling happy, accomplished, and much more confident about running my business... I highly recommend Larae to any new business owner who wants real guidance and real results.”

Sessions, and which one is 
Every session includes a prep worksheet, hands-on work on agreed priorities, and an after-session summary with an action plan. No monthly plan, no retainer — the setup and the know-how are yours when we finish. Software subscriptions, processing fees, legal review and additional website work are separate unless your written scope says otherwise. Readers of my ebook Do It All get $100 off a session — mention it on the inquiry form. Not sure which session? Send the form first and we will choose the scope together.
Run your business, not your to-do list.
Tell me what is taking your time, and let’s 
You do not have to figure out every tool before you take the first step. Tell me what is taking up your time, what you want to build and where you feel stuck. We’ll start with a practical plan for your business. I read and reply to every inquiry myself.
Got it — thank you.
I read every inquiry myself and will reply by email to talk through your priorities and choose a session scope before you book anything.
Consulting · Before you book
Consulting 
How do I get started?
Two easy ways. Book a free 30-minute consultation call on Square and we will talk through what is taking your time and which session fits, or send the inquiry form on this page and I will reply by email. Either way, nothing is booked until we have agreed a scope.
Do I need to be good with technology?
No. We start with your business and your priorities, then work through the tools together. You do not need to arrive with the answers.
What should I bring?
Complete your prep worksheet and bring a list of priorities, your service menu, relevant brand assets and access to the accounts we agree to work on. Keep passwords private; you enter credentials and complete security checks yourself.
Are sessions in person or virtual?
Both. We can work in person wherever we arrange it — your space or ours in St. Petersburg — or virtually over a video call with screen sharing. Tell me your preference on the inquiry form and we will settle the format before you book.
What tools will we use?
I use my AI assistants on Grok Bot, alongside tools that fit the project, such as Gmail, Google Sheets, forms and your booking platform. We review compatibility and any paid subscriptions before making changes. Not every tool supports every connection.
How soon will I see results?
We aim to make practical progress during the session. What gets finished depends on your priorities, account access, approvals and complexity. You leave with a record of the work and a next-step plan; revenue or ranking results are not guaranteed.
Will I need you after the session?
That is the point: you should not. A session is a one-time, sometimes two-time, knowledge dump — you learn what each piece does while we build it, and you leave running it yourself. There is no monthly plan and no retainer. A Follow-Up Working Hour ($197) exists for a one-off question, but it is never required. Launching a website like mine is a different thing altogether — a separate major project, scoped and priced on its own — not a reason you would need me after the AI session.
Is follow-up support included?
You receive an after-session summary and action plan. If you want more hands-on time afterwards, a Follow-Up Working Hour is $197.
Can we finish my whole website in one session?
A session can establish your website blueprint, design brief and selected build priorities. A complete website may need a separate scope, content and additional time, which we discuss separately.
Can you write my waivers or handle bank verification?
We can help organize forms and workflows, but legal documents need qualified review. You complete bank, payment and identity checks yourself. You remain in control of your accounts.
What does a session cost?
A Founding Session is $597 for three hours (first five clients), a Focused Session is $885 for three hours, an Extended Session is $1,100 for four hours, and a Follow-Up Working Hour is $197. Readers of my ebook Do It All get $100 off a session. Software subscriptions, processing fees, legal review and additional website work are separate unless your written scope says otherwise. Book any of them directly on Square from the sessions list above, or send the inquiry form first and we will choose the scope together.
Is this a salon service?
No. Bronze Lily Consulting is a separate service line from The Bronze Lily’s spa menu. It is for salon suite owners, solo beauty professionals, wellness owners and other small business owners who want practical help with AI, automation and their website.
