How to find some low hanging fruit
Hello my entrepreneurial and AI enthusiast friends!
We’ve got some secret weapons to make your business lean, mean, and most of all profitable.
These bad boys are cheat codes.
You ready?
Why start here?
Besides being stupid easy, off-the-shelf AI is the ultimate low-hanging fruit.
A few bucks a month to try it out?
Yeah I would say that’s a pretty low-risk way to start your AI journey.
Let me convince you even more…
At the end of the day, what matters to a business is what?
Profit.
The difference in being a hundred million dollar healthy business vs unhealthy is turning real profits.
You might start to ask yourself, what’s the fastest way to generating more profits?
Focus on adopting tools that speed up the team and have high leverage.
Speed means more time - more time leads to more attention on activities that move the needle forward.
With the right tools you’ll basically get an extra head for every employee you’ve got.
Increasing output in this way means scaling without needing to hire talent.
Growth constraint eliminated
Let’s look at a real world example:
GitHub Copilot for Programmers
We use it.
And maybe this next part won’t sound like much but we’re getting 1.5 engineers for every 1 that we have.
We move 55% faster than developers without GitHub Copilot.
By investing a few bucks a month, you’ll never be able to compete with us unless you have it.
Now let’s get tactical…
For us, it was engineers.
We invested a lot of time and energy into speeding them up because for our business, it’s the most expensive resource.
For you…
I’d try to find what your most expensive resources are.
For instance, if you’re a law firm how would you make your lawyer’s time more valuable?
Ask yourself these questions:
How can I use AI to educate my team better?
How can I get them to a state of solving their own issues faster without needing someone else?
What AI tools could I use to make them smarter and faster?
Take those thoughts and define them into a:
workflow
process
or repeatable task
{STOP}
Did you actually do that just now?
If not, go back and do it.
Now then.
Start with a simple google search —> “[your answer] + AI tools”
Dig through the results, pick your top choices and let us help you analyze.
Respond to this email with your answer and we’ll help you identify tools that are powerful and vetted.
Don’t hesitate to hit us up.
We’ve got a very large amount of resources that we can point your towards.
Moral of the story?
The sooner you get on board with AI & Automation, the sooner you start turning new profits.
As always thank you for supporting Profiting with AI.
We can’t thank you enough.
If you’re ready to start keeping up with our inevitably AI abundant future, we’ve got you with the support.
