Choosing an AI Consultant in Hampshire When You Work from Cowplain
Searching for an AI consultant brings up agencies, freelancers and course sellers. Here are the five questions that sort them out, and where one Hampshire option fits.
If you want an AI automation consultant in Hampshire, ask whoever you speak to what they will actually build, in which of your tools, and who looks after it afterwards. Dean Keating, in Horndean, is one option: he installs AI agents for small businesses, including Cowplain firms, and the first call is free. Call or WhatsApp 07418 627304.

"AI consultant" covers very different people. Some sell a workshop. Some write a report and leave. Some build software. Before you compare names, write down one job in your business that eats time every week and happens on a screen: chasing quotes, answering the same questions, or copying details from an email into a spreadsheet. That job is what you are hiring for.
Five questions to ask anyone
1. What will you build, specifically? A good answer names the task, not "an AI strategy".
2. Where will it run? It should work inside the email, calendar, accounting or messaging tools you already pay for.
3. Who sets it up? Some providers hand you instructions; others do the installation.
4. Who trains my staff and fixes it when it breaks? Support after the first week matters more than the demo.
5. What happens after the first call? You should leave with something usable even if you never hire them.
A village-sized example
Picture a firm on London Road with three staff, a phone that rings during the school run and a shared inbox nobody owns. The owner does not need a transformation programme. They need the enquiries that arrive after five answered promptly, and a quote that is chased when it goes quiet. Those are two jobs, and a sensible consultant would start with one.
Where Dean Keating fits
Dean is an AI automation consultant based in Horndean, Hampshire, the next village north of Cowplain. He builds AI agents and installs them in the tools a business already uses, trains the team and supports it. His website lists the jobs: replying to new enquiries within minutes, day or night, following up every lead until they book or say no, sending and chasing quotes, booking into the diary, answering common questions across email, web and WhatsApp, and the weekly report.
He starts with the single task that makes the most difference. There is no published price list. The cost is given after the free call, with no obligation.
How to compare him fairly
He publishes this directory, so we have an interest. Speak to at least one other provider and put the same five questions to both. He does the build and install remotely, and his website says he can visit businesses in Hampshire or nearby in person; if you want that from the start, ask.
