@Sidra Safdar Firstly confirm if you want to pursue as an agency (that is long term game with 10x more profits - this would take 3 months before a dollar is made) or as a freelancer (that is short term game with lesser profits but 8+ hours a day - this could make your first dollar in first 2 weeks but would need pure focus from you). If that's an agency approach you want: - Offer free ai audits to 3 businesses (salons, dressers, builders etc.,) and find them 5-6 ai tools that without any automation build if they simply start using, they can make/save money. Done, construct these small wins as case studies. Would take ~2 weeks for you. - While you build those 3 case studies, start reaching out/marketing to better local businesses (construction companies, gyms, financial firms, medical clinics etc.,) and charge $2k one-time for your AI Audits on a performance money back guarantee. - With these, you want your business landing page, with a VSL on what an ai audit is and how it could help implement ai to businesses, put 5-6 case studies below it and then a booking calendar link. - Scale with more ai audits, hire engineers and start selling post audit implementations which are ~$30k to ~$50k in one-time project values. 1. Mode of marketing: - meta ads or cold emails or both. - initially could be cold calls as well. 2. Niche to expand on: - work with a bunch of businesses and which fits the best to you stick with them. - as per my experience, most money is in professional service businesses and manufacturing companies along with some logistics. If you choose a freelancer route: - Go to linkedin and find 10 ai agency owners. - Offer to work for free and build a project for them for free which they can then sell to their existing clients as an upsell just to prove yourself. - Offer this to 100 ai agency owners in 3-4 days with free trial of linkedin sales navigator and you'll get 5-10 of them saying yes for it. - Audit their needs and ideas, learn how to build better solutions and build your free systems for these 5-6 agency owners.
