I stopped paying a person to run my newsletter Facebook ads and handed the whole thing to an AI agent. Two days later it beat my ad guy. Now I’m paying $1.62 per subscriber, I added over 2,000 subscribers in two weeks, and I haven’t logged into Ads Manager once.
In this episode I show you the exact one sentence prompt I used, what happened every day, the mistake it caught that had been costing me money for months, and five ways you can copy this for under $100. Plus I show you how to turn this into a business doing it for local companies, and the $71,600 that proves these cheap leads actually buy.

Enjoy!

Nico Moreno started a free online group about 60 days ago. Around 250 people joined, only about a dozen have bought anything, and it’s been close to $100K. He doesn’t run ads, and he never gets on a sales call.
He walks me through the whole thing: the poll he uses to find who’s ready to buy, the welcome message he sends every new member, and the exact DMs he uses to close $15K deals. We even do a mock sale live. And yes, he sells coaching, but most of his clients sell fitness, mindset, whatever they already know. It cost him $9 to start.

James quit his nonprofit job with zero clients and zero revenue. Sixteen months later, almost 60 local businesses pay him every month, and last month he did $18,000, all from about five phone calls a day to leads he finds in local Facebook groups. He shares his exact opener, his 30 second research checklist, what he sells and charges, and the math on how five calls a day turns into a real business.

I sat down with Bob, a 60-year-old entrepreneur who built an AI concierge business generating $25,000 to $30,000 per month in recurring revenue in about a year. We talked about how he uses GoHighLevel to build AI chatbots and voice assistants that help small businesses capture more leads, including one client who generated 50 leads for $13,000 engines in just one month. Bob broke down his entire business model, from finding clients and offering free 30-day trials to pricing his services based on the value of leads generated. We also got into his strategy for creating personalized AI demos that help close deals, why certain industries work better than others, and how anyone can start offering these services, even while working a full-time job. You can check out Bob's businesses at https://leadgrab.ai/ and https://www.intrycks.com/

I sat down with Frey Chu to talk about how he's building simple directory websites with AI and why they're still a great business opportunity. Frey shared how his first directory grew to 90,000 monthly visitors and made up to $3,000/month with very little ongoing work. We broke down how to find low-competition niches, build these websites using Claude Code, and monetize them through ads, leads, and subscriptions. He also shared his backlink strategy and walked me through real examples of directories getting thousands of visitors, showing there's still plenty of opportunity to make money with these simple websites.
