Getting your first client is arguably the hardest thing to do in business I am finding. In order to get a client, I need a track record showing that I have delivered value to customers in the past. In order to prove that you have delivered value/solutions, you need customers.…

For the longest time I have had it all backwards. I have been trying to build and sell a brand that was not backed by any real value it could provide to customers. Now, I am solely focused on building my automation skills so that I myself can be the value that is provided.…

my objective over these next few days in n8n is to build a simple lead generation workflow. I know this is something that is commonly done, however its a really good way for me to build a foundation in building my skills. I'm hoping that once I build a workflow that working…

"The formula for making great money is simple. Get good at what you do, then make as many people as possible know that you're good. If you aren't earning as much as you want right now, one of those is the problem." This quote really resonates with me, and why I am honed in on…

I think the way I want to approach learning how to build n8n workflows is to pick one niche (dentist, landscaping, salons, etc), and build an automation workflow for that domain every couple days. This will start to give me a portfolio of solutions, no matter how simple they…

I truly believe that automation and AI implementation is such a huge arbitrage opportunity. There are so many businesses and people that simply have no idea how to incorporate these tools into their workflows, and it is crushing their bottom line. I am starting to fully immerse…

The newest thing I am honing in on is the art of selling. I used to think of that as sort of a dirty word or a concept that I did not think would ever really apply to me. However, ever since I started building I have realized just how integral of a skill that is. IMO its…

are there any golf sickos out there like myself who would be interested in an AI swing analyzer? something that analyzed your swing and gave your feedback, and then also gives you drills and recommendations to help improve your swing

what do you work on when youre still gaining traction? I spend a lot of time on product, but without the customer interest to follow it feels I am sort of just wasting my time a bit. Recently I have spent more and more time customer acquisition, but the process is just quite…

I am convinced that Claude Opus is better than GPT 5. GPT 5 is just not quite as good as I had expected it to be.

I am at the point of building where I am fully addicted. But the rewards have not followed yet. I first want to start out helping local small businesses in my area. Is email the best way to reach out to these businesses? Or is the good old fashioned phone call still the best…

Everyone talks about PMF (product-market fit). I'm more focused on PSF: problem-solution fit. Do I understand the actual problem deeply enough to build something people will pay for? Or am I building something I think they need? The difference is everything.

The gap between "business intelligence" tools and actual small business needs is enormous. BI tools assume you have clean data, dedicated analysts, and months for implementation. Small businesses have Excel exports, gut feelings, and need answers by Friday.
