I've built 47 workflows until now. Only 3 made money.
This one hurt to realize. Spent last few months building impressive stuff: - Multi-step agent workflows - Complex API integrations - Beautiful dashboards nobody asked for Got reactions like "wow, that's cool" but bank account stayed at $0. Then I built something embarrassingly simple for a local gym owner. šš”š š°šØš«š¤šš„šØš° New member signs up -> Send welcome email -> Add to WhatsApp group -> Schedule first check-in -> Done. 4 nodes Took 90 minutes He paid me $600 Not because it was complex. Because it solved the ONE thing keeping him up at night: new members ghosting after week 1. ššš«š'š¬ š°š”šš šš”š š š©šš¢š š°šØš«š¤šš„šØš°š¬ š”šš š¢š§ ššØš¦š¦šØš§ 1.
