Hi I signed my first client this week - in my first week in the community thanks to Tyler and his live, I knew the correct path to take

Hey everyone, quick one. I am building up a small firm of certified professionals through Anthropic (the company behind Claude). They have a programme where you can get officially certified in their tech, completely free. No cost, no catch. You get access to their full learning academy, an official certification, and you get listed in their global directory so companies can find you directly. I am putting together a team under my company ForeShiloh. You keep your own thing, your own clients, your own business. But you are also part of a collective that shares opportunities, supports each other, and grows together. Still early days, so the people who get in now help shape how it all works. If you are interested or even just curious, drop me a message. All you need is willingness to learn.

Most people only scratch the surface of what Claude can do. Understanding its full capability structure will put you ahead of most users. Claude operates on 7 distinct capability levels. - The first level is straightforward conversation, where you ask questions and receive answers - The second level involves persistent memory, where Claude retains information about you, your work, and your preferences across all interactions, becoming more personalized over time and referencing previous conversations when relevant - The third level introduces Projects, which let you upload documents and set standing instructions so Claude maintains ongoing context about specific work or business areas, organizing everything within dedicated folders - The fourth level is Skills, reusable expertise modules you build once and invoke whenever needed, functioning like specialized consultants on demand - The fifth level is Artifacts, where Claude generates actual deliverables instead of just text: interactive applications, dashboards, and complete documents that render directly in the interface and can be published to a mini app store. - The sixth level connects Claude to your actual tools through MCP Server integrations with platforms like Figma, Gmail, Drive, and Slack, allowing it to work with your real data to complete tasks. - The seventh level is Agents comprehensive setups combining skills, connectors, and instructions into ready-to-deploy specialists. Install one agent plugin and Claude functions as a fully equipped team member, like a data analyst who can access your files and execute work autonomously, even while you're offline. For developers, this includes terminal access and the ability to build complete systems. Most users never move past basic chat, but these levels exist for anyone ready to use them

Just finished my first presentation. 😊 Wasn't that bad LOL

Just received final payment from the client. After 14 days of constantly hitting cold emails, got a reply. I followed up thrice before he finally agreed for a google meet. He had multiple pdfs from which he had to extract specific data, and then manually send those data to his team members. That was time consuming, and boring. I automated his entire pipeline via Ai. Old man was amazed lol. He wanted more customization so I had to learn stuffs which I had never learnt before. So that was a big hectic, but anyways got to learn new things. He said he has other projects too. He'll contact me later this month. Getting your first one is tough, later its just copy paste. Good luck
