Been building an AI lead response system for trade businesses — automatically replies to missed calls and web enquiries within 60 seconds, qualifies the lead, notifies the owner. Built with Claude + trigger.dev + Twilio. Here's the 90-second demo if anyone wants to see it: https://www.loom.com/share/4a8e5b8381cf4d7585d8981e99237aac Would love feedback from anyone who's sold something similar to tradies — what objections did you hit?

I’m going through the process of building out my first AI automation offers and trying to focus on things that actually get implemented in real businesses. For those of you who have already signed clients: What were the most common automations or workflows you built when you were first starting out that: - Were easiest to sell - Delivered clear ROI (time saved / money made / leads increased) - Got reused across multiple clients or industries But I’d love to hear what you actually built in real client work, especially the simple stuff that worked repeatedly. If possible, also share the business type and what result it produced.

Let's get to know each other! Comment below sharing where you are in the world, a career goal you have, and something you like to do for fun. 😊

There are a lot of ways to make money with your AI skills. You could start your own agency, you might already run a business, or you might just want to level up at the job you already have. In this video I break down why the path you pick matters less than the skills underneath it and the way you go about using them. I cover why the tools keep changing but the real value sits with the person who can figure out what's actually worth building, the two roads into becoming an AI consultant, and a simple roadmap that works no matter which direction you're headed.

I'll be speaking at an event called Workless happening July 29-31 in Tivat, Montenegro. Liam Ottley, Jack Roberts, Dave Ebbelaar, Mark Kashef, and so many more AI experts building different businesses. If you saw the one in Cape Town back in February, this is the same thing. Same kind of people, same experience. Founders and operators actually building with AI, all in one room. If you're looking to talk directly to the people doing this and building businesses around it every day, this is the room you want to be in. And if you want to connect with hundreds of other operators doing the same, this is the room. Check it out here: https://workless.ai/ Huge bonus points if I see anyone from AIS pull up. And even more bonus points if you show up in some AIS merch.
