Hey Academy, I added a FREE tier to the AI architects, come and hang if you're serious about learning AI and using it to build a business or become more efficient. I've got a quick start guide and I'll have other freebees too. If you've been thinking about joining the paid tier, just be aware the pricing is going up to $197 on 10/15. PLUS the annual subscription is $597 for a limited time — 40% off before it goes to $997 on Oct 15. First, some context on where this is headed. The AI space right now is dominated by a specific kind of noise. Agent swarms that run your business 24/7 doing nothing of real substance. Prompts and magic skills that replace an entire creative team (that aren't really that creative). On and on. It's misleading people. People end up building apps anyone could copy over a weekend, or you're so overwhelmed you build nothing at all, in fear whatever you today is gone tomorrow. Either way you end up burned out, working hard, consuming nonstop, with nothing real to show for it. And it all comes from the same place: a hype cycle that makes its money keeping you watching, not building. The opportunity is massive. But it takes more than a weekend — it takes understanding what actually works, what's noise, and where the real value is. I've spent 30 years building software. The last few months I went deep into the technical layers of AI development — agents, architecture, the stuff most creators skip because it doesn't make a good tweet. I came back with a much clearer picture of what's worth your time. So the direction is getting more focus. A new focused AI Strategy call on Friday, and content aimed at end results. Building real products, not hype demos. And bringing people together who want a realistic plan to take advantage of what's going on. Here's what's happening with pricing. The old $97/month price will go up to $197 Oct 15, and one more time a month after that. The annual subscription is $597 right now for a limited time — 40% off before it goes to $997 on Oct 15.

Final here! Fancy captions are coming to the NCA Toolkit! We've even fixed it to work with Chinese! Check them out! Using the No-Code Architects Toolkit you can now produce captions on your videos for basically free.

Stick to the script and see it through. It's too early to see the results you wanted. Stay the course. You've got to commit to plan long enough to convince people to commit to you. Why would someone commit to you if you can't commit to yourself? See it through. (Now if you don't have a plan, thats another story and another post) But if you got one, stick to it!!! 💪

When it comes to creating content for your business, there are four main strategies that you can adopt. Each has its pros and cons, and it’s important to recognize where you currently stand so you can make adjustments and get the best results. Let’s dive into these four strategies. 1. The "Viral Hacking" Strategy This strategy focuses on algorithms, hooks, and constant tweaking. It’s all about watching the stats—views, watch time, engagement—and obsessing over how to improve them. Viral hackers are always rearranging and republishing content to optimize for maximum reach. This method is highly effective, but it’s time-consuming and requires a lot of in-the-moment analysis. If you have the time or the resources to hire someone skilled in this area, you can see big results. However, for most businesses, it’s not realistic to dive that deep into content analytics every day. 2. The "Good Content" Strategy This is where you should be putting most of your energy. It’s about sitting down, planning, and consistently creating the best content you can in your industry. You’re aware of things like hooks and watch time, but your primary focus is on quality. This strategy tends to be underutilized, but it’s the one that will likely set you apart in the long term. By continually refining your craft, you’ll position yourself as a leader in your niche. 3. The "Check the Box" Strategy In this strategy, you’re creating content just because you know you should be. Maybe you’re outsourcing it to an agency, using AI to rewrite existing content, or having a ghostwriter take over. You’re getting content out, but it’s not likely to make a major impact. While this approach might help you stay consistent, consistency alone isn’t the magic formula for success. If you find yourself in this mode, remember that putting in just enough effort to “check the box” is not a long-term plan for growth. 4. The “I’ll Do It Next Week” Strategy We all know this one. You recognize the importance of content, but you keep putting it off. “I’ll do it next week” becomes a recurring thought, but it never gets done. This strategy will keep you stuck. At some point, you have to commit to doing the work or it simply won’t happen.
