Midwest AI Marketing Solutions — Work Smarter With AI

I identify repeat breakdowns in systems and redesign the workflow to eliminate rework and improve outcomes.

Karen Rintamaki, MBA & CAIO

Systems thinker.
AI strategist.

I’m Karen Rintamaki — an AI consultant, educator, and strategist helping small businesses and organizations stop guessing and start using AI in ways that actually work.

My background is in systems, not hype. Nearly two decades working inside large-scale operational environments taught me that most execution problems aren’t people problems — they’re workflow problems. AI doesn’t fix a broken process. But it amplifies a good one.

Through Midwest AI Marketing Solutions, I work with business owners, leaders, and teams who are ready to move past the buzzwords and build practical AI fluency that holds up in the real world.

How I can help

AI Strategy & Consulting

Practical AI roadmaps built around your actual workflow — not generic advice. We identify where AI creates real leverage in your business and build a plan you can execute.

Team AI Literacy Training

From skeptics to power users. I train your team to understand, trust, and apply AI tools in their daily work — using the MOMENT™ Framework to make it stick.

Workflow & Systems Design

Most AI failures are workflow failures. I map your existing processes, find the breakdown points, and redesign the system so AI amplifies output instead of adding confusion.
