Transcript

Selling AI to local businesses is the worst move on the fucking chessboard possible. Let's just break this shit down logically. You're going to sell AI to a local business, let's say it's a receptionist, they get less than 10 calls per month. Let's say it's a process automation, they don't have a process that requires that much manual work for you to automate. There is no move on the chessboard where it makes any sense to sell AI to local businesses, yet everybody is pushing that. If you want to make actual money, you have to go mid-market or you have to go to enterprise grade. If you want to know what to sell, who to sell it to, I post free trainings on YouTube. I have a full course in my bio for free, check it out.
