New to The AI Advantage? Read This First (It Will Save You Weeks)
Hey everyone!
We get a LOT of new members every day, and many of you jump in with enthusiasm… and then immediately get swarmed by:
• bots with stock profile photos
• “DM me for mentorship” sales funnels
• vague success promises
• people who don’t even use AI but want to pitch things
This post is for the real humans who genuinely want to learn, build, and grow with AI.
Here’s your starter roadmap 👇
1️⃣ First rule: Learn to spot bots & funnels
This community is incredible — when you know how to filter it.
Red flags to watch for:
• “Drop YES and I’ll help you make income fast”
• “DM me” within 2 messages
• Lifestyle promises (“I made 20k in 2 days!”)
• Zero real builds, zero screenshots, zero proof
• Over-friendly messages from accounts created 1 week ago
Legit members don’t chase you. They build in public.
2️⃣ Second rule: Follow people who show their work
If someone doesn’t post:
• what they built
• how they built it
• what went wrong
• what improved their workflow
…they’re not someone you need to learn from.
I personally follow only those who provide actual value:
builders, testers, thinkers, problem-solvers.
Start small.
Follow intentionally, not emotionally.
3️⃣ Third rule: Start with ONE person’s breadcrumbs
This community hides its best knowledge in the comments, not just the posts.
Pick one skilled member and go through:
• their posts
• their comments under other posts
• their replies to questions
You’ll find frameworks, prompts, thinking patterns, debugging strategies, and logic you can actually use.
If you want a beginner → advanced path, my posts follow that structure:
starting simple and getting progressively more technical.
4️⃣ Fourth rule: Don’t hoard — apply
Don’t be a collector.
Don’t fill your Google Drive with 200 prompts you’ll never touch.
Instead:
• learn one thing
• apply it instantly
• build something small
• break it
• fix it
• repeat
This is the fastest way to grow your actual skillset.
5️⃣ Fifth rule: Show your journey
You don’t need to be an expert.
You don’t need everything polished.
Just post:
• what you tried
• what you learned
• what didn’t work
• what your next step is
When you show your real process, people will help you.
And if your post doesn’t get attention?
Tag someone.
Not because people are ignoring you, but because everyone here is juggling work, families, clients, and projects.
6️⃣ Sixth rule: Engage like a human
No need to be perfect.
Just be real, curious, respectful, and present.
This community has brilliant minds —
but brilliance shows up when you ask real questions, not when you pretend you already know.
Final note:
If you’re new, welcome.
If you’re overwhelmed, you’re normal.
If you’re serious about learning, this place will accelerate you fast — once you know how to navigate it.
Use this post as your starting map.
And feel free to introduce yourself below — the real you, not the sales pitch version 😏
P.S. Feel free to copy-paste any part of this if it helps you find your footing here 😉
