I made a little over a $250k selling agents in 2025, here’s what works… You’ll understand why this guys cold email is a dead offer. 1. 🚫 Replacing humans 👎 Humans still like humans and no marketing manager or product manager wants to tell their boss about an ad or email they got that says “Replace your humans with agents.” Currently humans are helping to pay the bills and someone needs watch the agents. 2. 🚫 Big Complex Workflow The only people impressed by huge N8N workflows or agents with dozens of nodes and arrows pointing everywhere are lazy noobs watching YouTube dreaming of what they wish they could do. Possibly other DIY nerds like me, who actually don’t mind building complex things. Clients want simple. Simple doesn’t break. Simple is easy to fix. Simple is easy to train others on. 3. 🚫 Scale Without Hiring This is what solopreneurs want and think is sexy. They haven’t learned management or leadership yet, so they still think hiring is a problem. It’s not how people who will pay $5,000 per agent think. Multi-millionaires do not think this way. Hiring is their job. Hiring people has made them millions. They don’t believe it’s a bad thing, they see it as a good thing and like many of their team members. 4. 🏆 Sell Results Clients want the same thing they’ve always wanted, RESULTS! They don’t want a drill, they want a hole in the wall. If you’re explaining how all your nodes and prompts work, I promise your client is thinking of other things while you’re talking. My clients want ROAS, or 3hrs a day saved, or higher rankings, or more leads, or the phone ringing, or lately someone answering the phones for them. 🚫 “Look at my sexy workflow that research trends, then chooses a topic, then, then, then, and finally it’s done. You can replace everyone in the office with this!” 😴 ✅ “Ok so if I’m hearing correctly it takes you 3hrs a day to write this newsletter, I can take that down to 20-30mins and anyone in the office can do it. Freeing you up to do other stuff, want me to install it?” 💵 Sell the hole in the wall. Not the drill. No one cares about the drill. They’re buying the drill because the wife needs a hole in the wall for her thing. Ask questions. Figure out their bottleneck. Sell them a life without that bottleneck.

Watched the pod w/@gregisenberg and @MaxBrodeurUrbas where they demo @gumloop and knew I had to dig in. I'm building a flow to monitor a YT channel for new vids and had to build a custom node. It took a couple tries but seeing green now. Still a WIP but should be done soon.

In life, if you're simply not scared of the things others are scared of - from social ridicule to risks - you will give yourself so many more shots on goal. Fear suppresses talent.... - but also suppresses chances. The more shots you take, the more you score. Take the shots.

People won’t like this, but it’s the truth… - Want guaranteed income? - Step-by-step instructions? Then get a job. 😱 That’s leftover employee mentality and if you want to be an entrepreneur you’ll need to get real comfortable with uncertainty. Entrepreneurs make the big bucks because THEY shoulder the uncertainty. THEY create the guaranteed income and step-by-step instructions for their employees. And if I can be even more real with you… True entrepreneurs love that. They live for the puzzle. The thrill of the climb. The quest drives them. It gets them out of bed every morning ready to slay the dragon again and again. And some days… The dragon bites them. They question why they are even doing this. They consider the easy route of just going back to being a salaryman. Which is not a bad thing. Salarymen are very much needed and it’s a noble thing to go to work every day and provide for your family. However, a real entrepreneur… He considers it, but ultimately he just wants to take another crack at that mean old dragon - again. So he wipes away the tears, draws his sword, and gets right back after it. This time with even more gusto. Even more persistency. He walks through the dark tunnel of uncertainty, but all he see’s is the bright colorful victory waiting for him at the end. Stay strong my brothers and sisters. God is with you.
