Filled with transparent stories of failures and comebacks, this encouraging guide proves anyone can level up with the right systems

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., July 29, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- At 15, Angela Chatterfield was pregnant with a GED as her only option, no money, no degree, and no business plan. Today, she's teaching struggling small business owners how to use AI as their secret weapon instead of their replacement.

"I've been the underdog my whole life," says Chatterfield, author of the newly released "Instant Response Revolution: The Solo Entrepreneur's AI Advantage." "I learned early that when you don't have advantages, you get creative. That's exactly what small businesses need to do with AI right now."

The Story Behind the Story

Chatterfield's journey from teenage mother to business rescue expert reads like a masterclass in turning obstacles into opportunities. With limited formal education, she talked her way into sales jobs, learned on the fly, and discovered she had a gift for fixing what others couldn't.

"I spent 25 years watching brilliant business owners work themselves to death because they didn't have systems," Chatterfield explains. "The plastic surgeon who loses patients because no one answers the phone. The contractor who never follows up on estimates. The coach who burns out trying to do everything manually."

AI with a Human Face

What makes Chatterfield's approach different is "Patrice"—her personified AI assistant that she describes as "the employee you wish you could hire but can't afford."

"Everyone's scared AI will replace them," says Chatterfield. "But Patrice isn't here to take your job. She's here to give you your life back. She answers your phone, follows up with leads, and handles the routine stuff so you can focus on what only you can do."

The book is filled with transparent stories of Chatterfield's own failures and comebacks—from the TV show that didn't sell to the systems that crashed to the moments she questioned everything.

A Manual for the Exhausted

"Instant Response Revolution" isn't just about AI—it's about survival for small businesses drowning in daily chaos.

"This book is for the entrepreneur who's doing three people's jobs," Chatterfield says. "The one who dreams of growing but can barely keep up with what they have. The person who started a business to have freedom but feels more trapped than ever."

The book reveals:

• How "Patrice" handles customer contacts 24/7 without vacation days or sick leave
• Why the small business owner's biggest competitor isn't another company—it's their own exhaustion
• Real stories of entrepreneurs who went from survival mode to growth mode
• How to use AI to level up instead of getting left behind

The Encouragement Factor

Unlike technical AI manuals, Chatterfield's book reads like a conversation with a mentor who's been there.

"I want people to finish this book and think, 'If she can do it, I can do it,'" Chatterfield explains. "Because that's the truth. You don't need a computer science degree to use AI. You just need to start."

Her message resonates particularly with entrepreneurs who feel behind the technology curve.

"The big companies have teams and budgets," says Chatterfield. "But they don't have what we have—the ability to move fast, pivot quickly, and care more about our customers than our stock price. AI levels that playing field."

From Dreamer to Doer

Chatterfield believes the book speaks to two audiences: current business owners hanging on by a thread, and those who've always dreamed of starting something but felt intimidated by the competition.

"Whether you're running a business or dreaming of one, this book shows you how to use the same tools the big players use," she says. "The only difference is, we're doing it with heart, hustle, and a little help from Patrice."

Personal Touch in a Digital World

At its core, "Instant Response Revolution" argues that AI doesn't make business less human—it makes it more human by freeing entrepreneurs to focus on what matters most.

"When Patrice handles your routine calls, you get to spend time with the customers who really need you," Chatterfield explains. "When she manages your follow-up, you get to focus on delivering great work. It's not about replacing the human touch—it's about protecting it."
