Yolanda Edmonds, known by many as Coach Lane, is an AI strategist, business consultant, and creator of the A.I.M. Method™, a 3-step framework helping business owners stop guessing about AI and start using it with strategy.

With over 27 years of entrepreneurial experience and 2+ years of hands-on AI training, she simplifies the tech, systems, and automation solopreneurs and teams need to grow smarter—not harder.

As the founder of Lane Business Solutions, Yolanda equips product- and service-based businesses with backend clarity, automation strategy, and real-world AI implementation. Her specialty lies in bridging the gap between complex tools and everyday business needs—making systems work for people, not the other way around.

Yolanda has trained hundreds of entrepreneurs, coaches, creatives, and community leaders—many of whom were initially overwhelmed or resistant to AI. Using her straight shooter approach and deep knowledge of tools like ChatGPT, automation workflows, and small business systems, she helps clients clean up chaos and make confident, strategic moves with tech that actually delivers.

A trusted trainer, speaker, and collaborator, Yolanda has led workshops, AI trainings, and community events both virtually and in person. She is also the founder of SummerFest, a 9-year-running community experience in Mississippi that merges local impact with entrepreneurial visibility.

Whether she’s training a room of small business owners or consulting with a solopreneur stuck in digital overwhelm, Yolanda leads with one goal: to make smart tech simple—and profitable—for the people doing the real work.
