I develiped an auttomation for myself that im going to offer as a DFY service. What do you think I should charge for this? This is the service: : 1. My automation finds clippable moments from long form 16x9 talking head videos (about 5 clips per 30 minutes) 2. It crops and resize to 9x16 - 1080x1920 3. Add custom captions 4. Add a call-to-action endscreen 5. Create unique posts for 5 platforms (IG, Fb, X, Tiktok, Youtube), as in, not the same post duplicated  on 5 platforms, but instead unique post text 6. Unique tracking link for every post on every platform The client also receives: - The source video transcript, - The captioned video clips, - A thumbnail for each clip (just a screen cap) - A tracking report for every post on every platform I'll offer to process 4 videos/mth ( although my capacity is probably 100 videos per day per client) Therefore in a month, theyll receive approx: - 20 unique, captioned 9x16 video clips - 20 thumbnails - 4 transcripts - 100 unique video clip posts (20 unique posts on 5 platforms) - 100 unique tracking links - Tracking link click report What should I charge for something like this? Or is there even a market for this exact service? Thank you

I only made $3.50 an hour picking strawberries at 13 years old. I ended up working 180 hours that summer so I could buy myself an iPhone 4. It was well worth it, and the same job helped me finance my own computer as well. Most people scoff at this. $3.50 an hour, why would you do that? For me it didn't matter, because I had a goal and was ready to do whatever it took to achieve it. The same mindset helped me land my first $5 job on Upwork 6 months ago, where I debugged a client's system in 3 hours. And yes, you're not going to get rich doing $5 gigs, I get that. But I had a goal, and I was ready to set aside my ego. Because by doing that, I made $6k last month and this month is looking even more promising. I now have multiple clients giving me full freedom to work on what I want. Looking back, the $5 job was the stepping stone to get here. Instead of seeing it as a bad thing, I saw it as something that would help me in the future. I see people offering automation left and right but not managing to get any clients. I even know some who have been in this space for a full year and made $0. So the question I ask myself is what am I willing to do to make it work. Because I'd rather not spend years spinning my wheels and making zero progress.

Most people overcomplicate Instagram automation… and that’s exactly why they don’t stay consistent. The truth is, you don’t need 10 tools or some crazy setup. You only need 3 things: 1. Content that’s easy to produce (AI can help you with this) 2. A simple scheduler so you’re not posting manually every day 3. A way to respond faster (DM/comment automation but keep it human) That’s it. Automation isn’t about removing yourself…It’s about removing friction so you can actually show up consistently. The people winning right now aren’t fully automated they’re just smart with their time. If you had to pick one thing slowing you down right now… Is it content, posting, or engagement?

So the question is n8n versus make.com? Which one is better,? They both have their ups and they both have their downs. I’m looking for some personal and professional opinions of how you feel about each program. N8N in my opinion, builds agents better and easier and I feel can do more. Make.com seems to be easier to be working with all the way across but more difficult in building out agents. I like using both platforms and both have their strong points and both have their weaknesses. The other thing that I look at with them is their cost. Self hosting with NAN is great. Don’t get me wrong. It is awesome. I do find a bit of a nuance with the self hosting and that it is something else in addition that I have to keep up with. make.com on the other hand is not self hosted, but is cloud and again building agents are a little more difficult n8n and cost wise make.com is not bad. The other thing is with NAN doing the cloud posting versus self hosting $25 a month for 2500 actual workflow usage is phenomenal. You’re not being charged for each node that is being used in a workflow. But how many times the work flows are triggered. Meaning you can have one workflow and it can run 2500 times for the $25 a month. The big question is what is everybody else’s take an opinion on this matter? I know everybody prefers make over N8N or N8N over make just looking for valued opinions and discussion

Hey everyone! Sharing something I use every single day when working with AI. Most people don't know that AI responds to shortcut commands — you don't need to write a whole paragraph. One word changes everything. Here are 5 that actually work: ELI5: [topic] — AI explains it like you're 5. Perfect when you're learning something totally new. Zero jargon. TLDR: [paste text] — Drops a 2000-word article down to 5 key points in seconds. I use this every morning for news. JARGONIZE: [your text] — Turns simple writing into something that sounds polished and professional. Great for LinkedIn or emails. HUMANIZE: [AI text] — The opposite. Strips out the robotic tone and makes it sound like a real person wrote it. FEYNMAN: [topic] — AI teaches you step by step until you can explain it back to someone else. This one actually makes stuff stick. Bonus: You can combine them. Try → ELI5 the TLDR of [paste article]. You get a 3-line summary a 5-year-old can follow. The PDF guide is in the post as well. Questions :-> 1.Try one today and drop below what you used it for ? 2. Any specific point you're struggling with Claude or any ai tool to solve?
