I used to think AI and automation were only for super technical people or developers. Every time I saw people talking about bots, automations, workflows, and AI systems, it honestly felt overwhelming. Like there was this huge learning curve before you could even get started. But over time, I started realizing the real power of AI isn’t just the technology itself, it’s the problems it solves and the time it gives back. The moment that changed my perspective was seeing how businesses are using simple automations to handle conversations, follow-ups, leads, and customer interactions without doing everything manually 24/7. That’s what made me start paying closer attention to this space. One thing I already like about this community is that there are people here actually building and testing things in the real world instead of just talking theory. That kind of environment helps a lot when you’re trying to grow and stay motivated. Still learning every day, but I can already tell AI is going to completely change the way people do business over the next few years. What was the thing that first got you interested in AI or bots?

Hey team 👋 I just put together a presentation walking through everything you need to know about vibe coding — what it is, where it came from, and the three main tools in the space right now (Lovable, Claude Code, and GHL's new AI Studio). I made it because I get asked constantly how I'm building all the software I've been shipping over the last year. SaaS apps, multi-tenant dashboards, voice AI middleware, native mobile apps, GHL integrations — all without writing code myself. The presentation covers: → What vibe coding actually is (and the analogy that makes it click) → The traits that make someone GOOD at it vs the ones that cost you money → The 5-stage evolution from traditional coding to AI agents → Honest breakdown of Lovable, Claude Code, and GHL AI Studio → Real pricing — what each tool actually costs in real life → Where this whole space is going in the next 18 months → Which tool to use for which job Watch it here 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ5l2bZAFIg This is the video I wish existed when I started. 🚨 Now the bigger news 🚨 I'm adding a full Vibe Coding section to Skool. The presentation is the overview. The Skool section is where I actually teach you how to do it — the tools, the workflow, the prompts, the deploy path, the whole stack. So you can build your own products instead of hiring someone or quitting because the wrong tool drained your wallet. Here's how it's rolling out: → Current paid members: You get the Vibe Coding section FREE when it drops. Nothing to do, just stay subscribed. → Anyone who joins before it goes live: You also get it free, included with your membership. → After it launches: It becomes a standalone paid course. Members keep their access. Everyone else pays separately. If you've been on the fence about joining, this is the window. Get in now and pay nothing extra when the Vibe Coding section drops. I'll be sharing more over the next couple weeks — curriculum, example builds, live walkthroughs.

I built something I wasn't expecting to build. It's called Verve AI — it pulls hundreds of scored local business leads in any city, any industry with the cold call opener and personalized email already written for each one based on that business's actual pain points. I'm giving free access to 5 people in this community who do outbound sales or run an agency in exchange for an honest testimonial. DM me or comment below if you want in.
