I’m no stranger to DMing people. The last year I wasn’t doing many and mainly relying on ads to get to a call. Last week I’m back in the DMs and I’ve had numerous chats with people that are saying the same thing “oh, I wasn’t expecting you to reply. I thought I was gonna get an auto DM with a link.” Is anyone else experiencing this too? Really cool how being human is still the best strategy it seems.

Had them review a DM conversation and this was the review - I love where it pulled out where I missed the frame, however I am not a fan of "on a scale of 1-10 where are you at".. that always throws me off personally especially with the work I do. It didnt quite understand my dry humor gif and text that was sent out…but all good. I use it as a pattern interupt. (for me a soft bump, can tend to be easily ignored, but I guess it just depends on the person) I liked where is showed me where I missed a client proof. (it's always interesting where you drop the ball without realizing) Obiviously I should of just dropped a zoom link but I was thinking regarding the VSL for case studies and wanting them to watch that but I guess the truth is not everyone is going to watch those- I think it is just going to take me a little getting used to and how I can better utilize for my work flow. Stage Identification You made it all the way through Assess → Frame → Invite and got a verbal yes to book. Solid work. You're now in the Post-Invite Follow-Up stage — specifically, you're chasing a booking that never landed. --- Flow Diagnostics Here's what went well and what needs tightening: What went well: Your opener was a clean binary "this or that" — textbook ECAFI™ Engage You transitioned into Assess naturally and uncovered real pain (over-internalizing, worry, drinking to cope) You got the A–B Gap: he knows he's the problem, wants less stress, more freedom The invite was smooth — offered value either way ("free resource") Where momentum was lost: The "Are you mute for the holidays" message — risky. Could've felt pushy. He didn't respond to your opener, so a softer bump would've landed better. You stayed little long without a strong Frame. You gave one light reframe ("it's just a pattern… nervous system dysregulated") but never dropped a client story or proof. No authority anchor before the invite. When he said "I would be open to that" — that was your golden moment. Instead of dropping the link immediately, you should've done a commitment test first.

On a scale of 1-10 how clear are you on your vision and what you are going after? Drop it in the comments Ai is about to put personal development on steroids. watch till the end

I combined my 2-step post with the process @Tina Roach posted under ✅️ Action Done. I had 8 comments in the first 6 hours. Followed up on all of them with a DM. Opened a conversation with everyone. Some are family & friends. My first win - not skipping or offering it to them free. They are potential clients who can buy my offer too. Two completely new contacts booking calls! Converted 2 who are in my community to their VIP calls. I can pitch the new offer at the end of the call and get honest feedback. Learned what very important content to add to my offer before launching it. All from one simple post on socials. Have you completed your 2-step post? I'd love to hear your results

I've been embarrassingly deep in the AI rabbit hole lately. Like... my wife asks me how my day was and I start explaining what a "system prompt" is. She does this thing where she nods and listens really intently despite not having a clue what im talking about... It's a gift really. Anyway. I've been building AI agents. Writing prompts. Tweaking things. Breaking things. Talking to robots like they're interns who need very specific instructions or they'll ruin everything. (They will.) And somewhere in the middle of all this nerd stuff... something happened that I genuinely did not expect. I started getting better at being a human. Not joking. Here's what I mean. When you build an AI agent, there's really only a few things that make or break it: 🙋🏼‍♂️ The Identity. Who is this thing? What's its job? What does it believe about itself? 🔧 Skills. What can it actually do? What has it been trained on? ⛩️ Structure. How is its brain organized? What does it have access to, and can it find it when it needs it? Nail those three and the AI is scary good. Like "did a human write this?" good. Miss any of them and you get... confident nonsense. Which, now that I think about it, also describes most of my twenties. But here's where it gets weird. Read those three things again. Identity. Skills. Structure. That's literally what every self-help book since 1987 has been trying to tell us. Who are you? What can you do? How's your head organized? I've spent years in personal development, even working with Bob Proctor for 3 years. I've Read the books. Done the work. Sat in circles with grown men talking about their feelings. (That part's actually great.) And somehow it took building a robot to go... "Ohhhh. THAT'S what they meant." When my identity is clear ... I make better decisions. When my skills are sharp ... I move faster. When my internal structure is organized ... I don't spiral into chaos every time something breaks. Everyone's losing their minds about what AI can do for us.
