AI Executive Fractional Services

Need to convert more sales? Attract members and deliver world-class customer service? Ready to equip your staff with modernized tools to make work fun again? For companies without the budget for a dedicated AI specialist (typical salary ranges $350k+), Luna Lake offers fractional Chief AI Officer services to get you the help you need. Engagements are designed to leave your staff self-sufficient so the work continues without us.

Marketing Fractional Services

Marketing and brand work has been the foundation of this practice since 1999: logos, slogans, digital and print media, public relations, event coordination. We still do all of it, now with AI-powered research and production support layered in to amplify outcomes and compress timelines. Creative work remains a genuine personal expression while AI handles the repetitive tasks, adding speed, accuracy, and production efficiency.

Workshops

Especially for our entrepreneurs, small businesses, and nonprofit friends, we offer "AI as Accelerant," a curriculum built from personal business development experience and years of AI consulting across architecture firms, nonprofits, and small businesses. We structured it around selected MIT principles to give the practical lessons an academically rigorous foundation. We start with the basics and address concerns openly. We teach how to build AI agents and implement low-risk automations to free up time for more fulfilling work.

Speaking

Looking for a luncheon speaker, conference session, keynote, or something in between? We believe in educating the public as quickly as possible about the state of disruption and concrete ways to act on it. People love hearing the personal experience and honest case studies: what's working in AI automation for our clients and what isn't. Sessions can include a pre-event questionnaire to inform the content delivered so the content is relevant and actionable for your specific group.

Community

Threshold is Luna Lake's member community for practitioners who want more than a workshop. Inside: a curated resource library, live sessions, real-time implementation updates from Luna Lake's own operations, and a network of professionals actively navigating the same AI threshold you are. This is where learning becomes a shared practice and the questions you can't ask in a conference room finally get answered.

Research

AI changes what research can do. Luna Lake uses purpose-built AI systems to compress what once took weeks into hours: competitive analysis, market mapping, audience intelligence, content research, and synthesis across large document sets. The output is cleaner and more comprehensive than traditional methods, delivered in formats your team can act on immediately. We also pursue independent research projects as a part of our own body of work.
