Meet Your Instructor

Ric Acevedo is the founder of ITech Plus, a full-service IT and AI consulting company based in Haines City, FL. He works with contractors and small businesses across Central Florida on everything from commercial camera systems and cybersecurity to Microsoft 365 and AI automation.

He built this course because he got tired of watching contractors spend 20 hours a week on admin work that AI can handle in minutes.

“I’m not an AI researcher. I’m a practitioner. Everything in this course is something I’ve set up for real clients. If it doesn’t work in the field, it’s not in the course.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the course really free?

Yes. All 6 modules. No upsell. No “premium” version. We give the course away because we make money helping contractors implement what they learn – not by selling them content.

What is the catch?

No catch. We ask for your email so we can send you new modules and updates. If you want to do everything yourself, you can. If you want help, we are here.

What does help cost?

Setup projects start at ,500. Most contractors invest ,000-,000 in a complete setup. We also offer Monthly Plans starting at /user/month.

Why give the course away?

Because YouTube exists. The information is not unique. What is unique is that we will actually come to your office, set it up, train your team, and support you every month after.

Do I need to be technical?

No. If you can use email and a smartphone, you can follow this course.

What tools do I need?

A computer, internet access, and either ChatGPT (/month) or Microsoft 365 with Copilot (/user/month).

How long does the course take?

Each module is 15-20 minutes plus hands-on exercises. Most contractors finish in a week doing one module per day.

Is this just for general contractors?

No. Works for any construction trade – roofing, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, concrete, painting, landscaping, pool builders, and more.
