Speaker 2 (00:30):
Good morning, Good morning, Good morning all my Gwenetians out
there in Gwenette Land and all of my friends around
the world. It's a beautiful day here in Gwenett County.
Forty seven degrees going up to a high sixty, So
that's pretty nice. Yesterday was good or it was so
gorgeous yesterday. I didn't even have on a jacket. I
didn't put on a jacket till last night. So it's
a beautiful day. Listen, the sun is shining. We woke

(00:51):
up this morning. That's a beautiful day, even if it
was freezing outside of rain and us knowing, it is
a beautiful day altogether. Together. Hope you guys had a
wonderful weekend. I did, We did the we had the
Grenett Women's Chamber gala and you were gala. That was beautiful.
You know, it's so crazy. When I came up with
this whole idea for themecolors, I was like, Okay, we're

(01:12):
gonna do like a themecolor every year. And last year
we did green. It was so pretty. This year we
did yellow. Yellow was hard to find, but it was
really pretty. To next year we're doing pink and black.
Any combination of pink and black, that's what we're doing.
So I'm excited about that. But anyway, I hope you
guys are having a wonderful start to your day. Today
we're gonna be talking about our blueprint for how to

(01:33):
start a voice bot business. Yes, I said voice bot.
You heard about chat bot. And if you go to
Gwnetwomen's Chamber dot com Gnettwomen's Chamber dot com, you go there,
we have our new AI workforce development initiative going. So
go there and look under the about page and you
will see it. And matter of fact, I think I
need to make that more prominent. I just need to
put AI anyway you will see it. I also launched

(01:57):
the coach Gwynn chatbot for people trying to start a
business in Guenett County. Her name is Coach Gwynn. She
gives you, she helps you navigate business through go in
that county. But she is just a regular chat box.
She's not a voice box. Today, I'm gonna be talking
about voice bots. And the reason I'm talking about voice
box is because i have an idea that I'm gonna
roll out and I want to I'm gonna use this

(02:19):
idea to help business owners. So I want you to
think about how you can start a voice box business
and why that's important. So let's let's get into it.
And it's and it's inexpensive to do, y'all. I'm talking
about super duper inexpensive to do. Like if you use
something like a voice flow, it might cost you fifty
dollars a month to run the business voice box business.
And you're helping people who don't have the time or

(02:40):
they don't have the manpower or the budget to go
out and hire like customer service people and things like that.
So you know, you go to a website, it has
a chat by then and you can chat it a
chat back. You can chat it a chat back, and some
of those will even connect you to a live person
and you say I want to talk to a lot
of person like I don't want to chat with you.
It will connect you to a live person. But now
is popping off is these voice bots that will actually

(03:03):
talk back to the person. Now, this is where you
come in at because as a business owner who create
voice box for businesses, you have to go out there
and help that business construct the voice by that can
answer questions that someone will come to their website to ask. Right,
so you want, that's who you are, that's what that's
what you're gonna do. And what's nice about this is

(03:25):
that they have really good tools. Like even job Form.
I saw a job form. I'm like, wait a minute,
job form is trying to grow up. Job form was
super when I tell you, super duper easy. Job Form
was super duper easy. I'm talking about real easy. So
let's say let's talk about the business over you. So no,

(03:45):
and it's no cold. You don't have to know how
to cold. You don't have to be a techie. The
things that I talk about on here I try to
make pretty simple so that anybody who's looking to get
into any business can just start. You don't have to
you have to do some education stuff, right, but you
don't know how to have to know how to call.
Because you can learn everything you need to learn. I
tell anybody this, You can start any kind of business

(04:06):
you want. The most important thing about any business is
the marketing. If you do not do the marketing, you
will not make money. There are so many people out
there who have wonderful ideas and they are definitely afraid
of marketing or they don't know how to market. And
there's so many tools out there. And here's the thing,
it's so many. It's very overwhelming at times for most people. Right,

(04:27):
pick one tool, one, just one, because there are hundreds
and thousands of them. And what AI popping off the
way it's doing right now, it's even more. Somebody's adding
a new AI to something every day. What I'm saying
to you is that if you're going to go into
any business, the voice boy business, the catering business, whatever
that business is, you're gonna have to market. That's gonna

(04:47):
be the key thing. You can make the best balloons ever,
you can make the best decorating tables ever. You can make,
you can create this whole experience ever, if nobody knows
that you're there person. It doesn't matter how great you are.
They need to understand that you're there. So you have
to let them know. I can't. I can't tell you

(05:07):
how many times I've walked into a business that I've
never seen. Like there's a business around the corner from
my house. I didn't even know it was there. Like,
they never put out any marketing information. They just set
up shop and didn't do any marketing to that. They
could have did a zip code milling just for three
just for a zip code, right, a postcard just for
a zip code, and people in the zip code wuld say,

(05:28):
oh it's a new business. Nobody does that, which blows
my mind. I'm doing a reintroducing myself a postcard campaign
to about good Wanting Genett. Why because I need people
to know it here. You know, I need people to
tune into the show every day, get help, information, share
with people that really need to help. That's why. So

(05:48):
let's get into the voice spot and why I start
a voice boy business. Well, it costs a little bit
of money to start five hundred dollars or less. You
don't need you don't need to hire developers, right, it's
a small learning curve if you use high tech tools
like a voice flow. But if you do I looked
at jotforms. Jotforms were super duper easy. Usually have to

(06:09):
create a business model around there and see how you're
gonna make some money. But it's low startup calls. You
can start for less than five hundred dollars. It is
a high demand business. I'm talking about hi because think
about this. Just in my chamber, Loan and I have
a small chamber. There are fifty they are fifty businesses,
right and only about three of those are four of
those are I think it's fifty three businesses and we

(06:30):
have a small chamber. We're still just you know, two
years old, but we're getting there. We're getting there. Only
about five of those have employees. What people can answer
the phone. Everybody else is a solopreneur trying to go
to work, run a business, do the market, do the
customer cer. They're trying, they need you. And if you
create an affordable tool for them to use on a
regular basis, you got that business. You have that business

(06:53):
for them, low startup costs, very high demand. Right now,
you can create recurring income from this because if you
charge forty seven dollars a month for answering service, right
for a chat bot service, and that person can be
out doing business and they got a chat by talking
to people on their website. They are a customer service talking,
not chatting. They're talking, the people are talking to them

(07:16):
and it's talking back. Yes, that type of service recurring
all day long because I can't afford to hire somebody
to run my business, and I'm doing it. I'm gonna
do this for GWC and Morning because I need to
make sure that when I'm not sitting at this computer,
because I'm a soopreneur, that the questions are being answered.
I have so much content to train on that it's
gonna take me a couple of probably a couple of

(07:37):
weeks to get it all done for both both organizations. However,
that's nothing I could do it. It's a quick setup.
When I tell you fast and easy to get up
and running. You can have people up and running in
like ten days. And I'm saying ten days is a stretch,
Like that's not even long. You can probably do it
in seven. But I always say like ten business days

(07:57):
to give yourself some time to get it done and
all that stuff. Quick setup just like that. You can
work from anywhere in the world because it's all online.
You want to be a laptop an entrepreneur all over
the world, just jet setting and setting up a box
for people. Yes, go ahead, do your thing. Yes, yes,
it work from anywhere. Now, let's talk about the market size.

(08:18):
This is a huge AI market is huge, y'all. By
twenty twenty eight. It's expected to reach forty six billion
by twenty twenty eight. Seventy percent of small businesses struggle
with handling customer inquiries. That is one of the biggest problems,
especially mom and pops and solopreneurs. So what does that
mean for you and I. That means that we can

(08:39):
create a business that service these people, that put a
voice bout on their website so people can talk to
the website to the voice by and get answers verbally
from the box. That's why this is so cool and
it's a great opportunity. And here's the thing, it's probably
not a hard sell, especially to solopreneurs. It's probably not
a hard sell at all, especially to solopenneurs. All right, now,

(09:04):
let's talk about your audience. You're talking about people like plumbers, electricians,
landscape and see they're out on the road, they're out
in the field, they're not sitting behind the desk. They
may not have someone to answer the phone and take
the appointments. Your boy can do all of those even
though it's talking. You can have it schedule appointments by
sending appointment links. It is a smart tool for real,

(09:25):
and you can sell us to people. And if you
can sell it for a high price, because I've seen
people sell them for as much as thirty five hundred
dollars just to develop them, or you can say, you
know what, I want to help small businesses and it's
gonna be a four hundred dollars set up charge and
then it's gonna be forty seven dollars a month. That
simple right now. Just imagine you're just trying to do
this as a side hustle. Let's say you get thirty

(09:45):
five new clients right paying you forty seven dollars a month.
You got thirty five new client. Let's do the math
on that, because I want I want to know what
the math is. And this is easy money once you
do it, because it's like, just do it. So let's
say you go out and you sign thirty five clients
top four hundred dollars, and I'm talking real cheap, y'all.
So that's fourteen thousand dollars right out the gate. Each
one of those is gonna take you seven days to
do right, and then you got thirty five times forty seven,

(10:10):
You got sixteen hundred dollars income coming and recurring every money.
You don't have to do nothing else. That's just sixteen
extra dollars. Now, if you want to go big, you
can bring you can charge ninety seven doll let's do
let's do thirty five at ninety seven, thirty five customers
times one hundred times ninety seven dollars a month. That's
gonna give you three thousand, nine hundred and ninety five dollars.

(10:32):
Do you see what I said? And that's really on
the cheap end, y'all. Like people say, pay five hundred
dollars a month for this type of service, and they
pay it because they really need somebody there to talk
to their customers and they and they can't be there,
and they don't they can't afford to pay health insurance.
They can't afford to pay, you know, five hundred dollars
a week. They can do five hundred a month, but
five hundred dollars a week, it's not a lot of

(10:52):
money because the person that's working is that's that's pretty
much minimum wage'all most so, you know, and then they
got health care, and then they got to worry about when
the person's i'd work. Un Listen, I'm not trying to
put people out of job. I'm trying to put people
into businesses to support other businesses. So if you are
listening to the sound of my voice and you're trying
to figure out I need to sid a hustle, you
can do it from anywhere, doesn't cost you much to

(11:13):
start up, and there is a dire need for this
type of service, all right. Local businesses, plumbers, electrician, landscapers,
they're out in the field. They don't have time to
do that. Restaurant and food businesses, you can automate their service,
the reservations. You can answer customers questions. Like every time
I go to somebody's website for me, I feel like
they should even have voice reviews on it where people

(11:35):
can say, I really love the whatever. I feel like
that's a place for you to get a voice review.
You know, you see written reviews. But if they go
to your website, maybe your voice body can recommend, like
tell you by what somebody said, you know, thank you
for visiting. You have you you've reached whatever whatever restaurant,
and you know our last customers such and such said,
we had such a they really enjoyed the such and such. Right,

(11:57):
you can train the voice about to do these things,
and then people say, oh, maybe I need to train
to do that. Nobody's doing that, y'all. Nobody's doing that.
That could be you train the boys about to say
what you wanted to say. Restaurant businesses in the kitchen.
They're not out there on the website. They're not standing
in front of the door. They're in the kitchen cooking
the food. The business owners is running around making sure
the inventory is right, the coll store adjust all of

(12:18):
these things. They don't have time to do the online
customer service. They have a website, thank god. Some of
them don't even have that. They have a Facebook page,
which I think is absolutely nuts, just to have a
safe Facebook page. But most of them have websites. But
they're not sitting there looking at the website. But that's
where that's where your voicebot come in at retail and
e commerce stores. Most of them are not paying attention.

(12:39):
They're trying to figure out how to make themselves. They
need you, especially retail, local retail businesses. They're sitting in this.
Let me tell you because I know because I go by.
They're sitting in the store, sitting at the register, praying
somebody walk through the door. Nobody even knows they're there.
They haven't done a melody, haven't done a cell, they
don't have a newsletter, they have nothing. They're just hoping
that foot traffic is going to bring them in the door.
Here's the thing about low retail shops in small towns.

(13:01):
And I live in Gwinnette County. I live in Lawrenceville.
Lawnceville is the largest, the largest town in Gwinnette County.
I can't tell you. I went to a tea shop
downtown Lawrenceville. And I'm not down there very often. And
when I am down there, I'm going to one location.
I went to it. I went to a bookstore. I
knew the bookstore was there, but I didn't know the
t shop was there. Beautiful tea shop. I said to

(13:22):
the lady, Hey have the owner reach out to me.
I talk about them. Won't reach out, this is free marketing.
Won't reach out to me so I can talk to her,
maybe bring on the show, do an article about it.
Won't have not reached out yet. It is nuts. I
left my card. Hey, haven't reached out to me. Nobody
knows she's there. And they say we've been here for
three years. I was like three Now, I've been downtown

(13:44):
right and probably right next door. It didn't even know
they were there. We've been here three years, did not know.
So they're basing this on foot traffic, right people. I
went to the website because I was like, okay, let
me go to the website and see there's no bought
on the website. Answering questions, right, what kind of teas
do you have? What kind of teas do you recommend?
Do you have tea's for information? Do you have tea's

(14:04):
Get rid of mucus? That's what you going in there to?
Do You gonna go in and say, look, you're sitting here,
wait for somebody come to the register. Your website is
just out there in website space. Somebody needs to be
talking to the customers who are not walking through the door,
the ones that are searching online for teas, you need
to pop up in the search engines, and your voice
body needs to talk to your customer. That's where you

(14:26):
come in at retell. People just sitting in the stores
waiting for somebody to walk by and prefectly walk through
the door, and then they shut down, and they wonder
why nobody knows you that. If it were me, I
would have a I would have a newsletter going out
the door every day. That's what I would do. But
they won't do it. Healthcare professionals, appointment booking and reminders.
I feel like reminders are really like some people have

(14:48):
a really good reminding system. Right, it's gonna text you,
it's gonna don't forget your appointment, that kind of thing.
The book the appointment bookers are people, and some people
are not happy about this because it's gonna replace their
job if they're sitting at a desk and their booking appointments.
You know, I hate to tell you this AI coming
for your job. I'm just saying so already happening. They're coming.
Coaches and consultants. They need lead qualifications, right, they need

(15:11):
customer support. Now here's another group that won't pay nobody
it's the craziest thing. You want customers, but you don't
want pay anybody anything. That's why tools like these are
so important, because you can make them very affordable and
customizable to your client. So now they can avoid it
and maybe they will pay for that. But a lot
of times they just won't do it. And I just
don't understand. I know three businesses that went out of

(15:33):
business and they didn't do any marketing. They just relied
on foot traffic, and then a lot of business has
struggled because they don't do great marketing. I was talking
to somebody the other day about and I don't know
if you guys remember this, but long time ago, there
was somebody who started a business around a rock. It
was called your pet rock. Yes, like rock rock rock.

(15:54):
It was a rock, and they started a business around
the pet rock and sold millions and millions and millions
of dollars. Because it was a very it was a gimmick,
but they sold millions of dollars and made them rich.
It was a rock and people was buying the rock.
It was like a companion called a pet rock. There
was also this story about the Brooklyn Bridge. Right they

(16:15):
were tearing down the Brooklyn Bridge in New York, right,
and this man saw it on the news and he
decided to go there and get the because they were
throwing the wood away. He decided to go get the
wood and chop it up into little chunks and sell
pieces of the original Brooklyn Bridge and made millions. Now
why am I telling you these stories? Because if nobody
knows who you are, you can't sell anything. I'm working

(16:38):
on a brand plan right now for the GWIN, that
Women's Chamber of Commers.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Right.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
I woke up this morning and straight up brand plan moved.
I'm like, okay, I need to make sure that this this, this,
this chamber is like none other. That's what I need
to do. I need to create a brand plan for
my chamber and it needs to be so unique that
people talk about it. And then they had Johnny members
and they're supported. Why because I have to support my

(17:03):
constituents who are members and help them continue to flourish
and grow in our community. Now, what I plan on
doing is making this a blueprint for others. And guess
what I got to talk about that people got to
know about that. I'm good when it comes to PR.
Like when it comes to PR when I come up
with the concept of pr I'm good with that. So
you know you're gonna help your clients. And here's another

(17:23):
thing you may say, you know what, I know that
I know that I'm gonna install this voice bout for you,
but we need to also wannt you a marketing plan
for this, like a launch plan? And that could be
another add on to your service, like once the body
is added on, what's next, Well, launch, Let's do a
launch plan for your bot to introduce it to your
customers and the world. What does that look like? Do

(17:45):
you have an email list, do an announcement in an email,
do an announcement to your local chamber, do it announcement
to your local media. It needs to be announced. So
you need to come to them with the voice box service.
And then you also need to attach a launch plan
along with that. So now they got the voice boy
and the launch pan together to let the world know
that they're there. Right, you may have to run some

(18:05):
Facebook ads. You can make this business what you want
to make this business. It is doable, right, especially if
the person has a little bit of capital to help
you to help to help them get started in this business.
All right, So now you got your voice box business.
Let's talk about the business model right that. It's no code,
you don't have to use code. You can go to

(18:25):
voice flow, you can go to bop per, you can
go to jot form. I saw somebody do a demo
or jot form. I almost jumped out of my seat.
I was like, you got to be kidding me. I'm
about to tear jot form up because it's so amazing.
It is so freaking amazing, and it's so affordable. They
got a free plan. They got like a plan that's

(18:45):
like twenty nine dollars I think, then thirty nine, and
then ninety nine, and then enterprise. It was crazy. I
was like straight going for enterprise, all right, So let's
get this started. So let's talk about the revenue streams.
You got this description plan where you can charge your
monthly fee. You can try between forty seven dollars and
ninety seven dollars a month. You got the custom voice
box set up that's a one time fee. You can

(19:06):
charge anywhere from like two ninety seven to nine ninety seven.
I've seen people charge as much as thirty five hundred.
It really depends on how intricate the body is like,
you have to do a lot of training of the
bot and making sure that it's trained properly. Yeah, it
could go up to it can go way up. It
can go up to ten thousand dollars. It just depends
on the company, their budget and what they're trying to accomplish.
But you can start as low as two ninety seven

(19:28):
affiliate commissions partner with no code AI twos companies because
if you're gonna use their tool and they have an
affiliate program, then they that's another current revenue stream for you.
This safe thing. I don't even know if jotform has
a affiliate program, but if they did, and I was
gonna use job form to beat to create voice box
for my clients, that client is gonna have to pay

(19:50):
that that Jotform subscription fee. They're gonna have to pay that.
So because I'm referring them to Jotform, even though I'm
building it for them, they have to pay job Form.
And then because they're paying job Form, I get a
commission off that. Now, I probably wouldn't do that because
if I'm trying to make sure it's under my brand
and label, I probably would not let them pray a
subscription to job Form. I probably would pay job Form

(20:12):
that subscription fee, so I probably wouldn't use the affiliate program.
I probably let's say job Form is thirty nine dollars
a month, then I'm gonna have to charge them ninety
nine dollars to make a sixty dollars profit. You understand
what I'm saying. So or I might say, you know what,
your service is gonna be one forty nine a month,
you know, because I need to clear one hundred dollars.
So jobform is taking twenty nine, the service is one

(20:33):
forty nine. I walk away with the balance of that,
all right, because I still have to I still have
to pay you know, job Form. So you know, you
can use tools. And I don't even know if voice
flow has an affiliate program, but if you're gonna use
that model then and make them sign up twice, I
wouldn't do that. You could do that, but I wouldn't
do that because now they gotta pay you and pay

(20:54):
the company for the hosting. I wouldn't do that because
now it doesn't look like you did it. Now, let
me just say this voice flow is real intricate. So
if someone's gonna take the time to sit and learn
voice flow. After you say this is who you use,
then God be with them because it's not a simple
tool to use. It's a powerful tool, but not simple.
So you can make money that you can also offer up.

(21:15):
You can offer up sales like just like I said, right,
you can say I do your voice boy, but I
can also do a press plan for you. And the
press plan maybe three hundred dollars. So they gonna pay
the two ninety seven plus three and you give them
two tiers. Hey, two ninety seven for set up, forty
seven dollars a month or ninety seven whatever that fear is,
or five ninety seven for set up, and that includes

(21:36):
your voice boy and your press plan. See what I
just did. That's a upsell. You gave him two options.
You got this this this option here for two ninety
seven ninety seven a month, or you got this five
ninety seven for five ninety seven and then ninety seven
dollars a month. You just did a upsale. So they
got two options when they go to your website to
buy the buy let me say that again. When you

(21:56):
send them to the website, they got two options. They
got a set up plan for two ninety seven or
nine ninety seven, whichever one you decided to choose. It's
really on up to you. But I'm just using two
ninety seven. That's on the low end. And and some
people don't know how to charge nine to ninety seven.
They get definitely afraid to say, I charge one thousand
dollars and they do like two thousand dollars worth of work.
Let me say that part again. I used to be
that person. You're doing two thousand dollars worth of work

(22:18):
and you're selling for two ninety seven. I used to
be that person. You gotta get You gotta wrap your
head around charging these speeds if you want to be successful.
I have I have products as nine ninety seven. I
have products that's thirty five hundred dollars. I've sold those products.
I've sold a couple of this year. I'm listening. I'm not.
I had to get past that. You gotta get past that.
So you got two plans. One plan is two ninety seven, right,

(22:41):
but just just the voice buy. The other plan is
five ninety seven for the buy and the press plan.
The press plan is gonna introduce them to their local
community because you're gonna send out a press, the leads
you're gonna send out some you're gonna run, you gonna
send a personally to the local community, to the national community.
You know, you're gonna send information to the chambers. You're
gonna put the in out there for them. All right,
all right, that's your upsell. And you don't need a

(23:05):
whole lot of tools, y'all. You really don't like If
you're gonna use, you can use like I keep talking
about voice flow because voice flow is one of the
platforms that I first started working with when I first started,
when I jumped into the space, I was first using
voice flow to create Alexa apps for Amazon Alexa. That's
when I first started using it. So I've been doing

(23:26):
this a while. I was doing Alexa apps way back when,
Like my like good Morning Guenett is on Alexa. So
if you go to Alexa, if you got an Alexa
in your house, you say Alexa play good morning, Gwenett.
It's gonna open up the most recent version of good
morning when it's gonna pop Alexa up. It's gonna pop
good morning, gett up on Alexa. I was using boys
blow back then way and this is years you're talking

(23:48):
about twenty eighteen. I think I probably started using in
twenty eighteen, and it sounds that was five years ago.
It has pivoted so much since then. It is still,
you know, one of the best tools out there to
create all of these workflows. The boy space I was
using for Alexa, that's my Alexa's over there. They got Twilio.
I've never used Twilio, but it comes up a lot now.

(24:08):
The thing I understand about Twilio is that it has
a phone box system, so you can connect it all
together and then it'll make it actually send a call
to like the person, the human person, and then the
person can answer the phone. That's I feel like, that's
no code, but you got to understand what you're doing right.
That's why I'm recommending you use like a voice flow.

(24:30):
I heard lamdbout was pretty good. It's no cold chat
building with boy speatures, but just getting it started. Please
go look at job form. I need to see if
they got an affiliate program. Please go look at job phone.
When I tell you the man built the he built
the thing and it was simple. He didn't really do
all the like the things you need to do to
make a powerful but that setup was like fifteen minutes.

(24:52):
I was like, what the what and it was boys
And I was just sitting at home scrolling and you know,
it popped up and I'm like, wait a minute. Which
for me, when stuff happens like that, it means that
I was meant to see it. They just popped up
there on my screen. I was like, Wow, I couldn't
believe it. I couldn't wait to get here today and
look at it and like, Okay, let me see how
we're gonna do this thing. And I got a great

(25:12):
idea for it. I'm as a matter of fact, I'm
gonna create some business in a box based around that
tool where people can just buy everything. The website, everything rebranded,
it's theirs. They pay a monthly subscription. Listen, I'm just
giving away some I'm just giving away some gems right now.
You can figure out how to do it, but I'm
telling you this is the way to go. So estimated

(25:33):
costs to get it all up and running. So the
platform services like if you use two year old voice
Flow you can pay to or or job form you
can pay between twenty dollars and fifty dollars a month.
Now I can tell you that jotform has a free service,
like it has a free app building service. It jotform
is the bomb. I didn't know how cool it was
until I actually looked at it. I was like, wait

(25:53):
a minute, I could do all listen job form, but
they see they make their money because you can only
get so much. They're gonna give you a little taste, right,
but when you need to upgrade, when you need to
add more services and features, now you gotta pay. And
it's not even expensive. I like them domaining website twelve
to fifty dollars, depending on how you pay to pay
twelve dollars a month or now I buy them go Daddy.

(26:15):
By the time I get finished with my one domain,
it's like twelve fourteen, depending on what it is. If
it's a dot com, it's like twelve fourteen that includes
a tax, But if it's like a dot online, it
could be like three ninety nine plus tax four eighteen
or you know, ninety nine cent. It just depends on
what it is. Now that following year you're gonna get
hit bam, you're gonna get with that twenty nine ninety
nine or at fifty four seventy three, whatever it is. Yes,

(26:37):
I'm just I'm just blowing numbers out my butt. But
you're gonna get hit with those type of numbers. Business email,
you know, you can use Google. I use go Daddy
for everything marketing that's like six dollars or something. I
think I pay three dollars and ninety five per cent
for my my email. Marketing like Facebook ads and things
like that. That could be expensive. And if you don't
know how to do that, don't do it. Don't do that.

(26:59):
But if you want to run an ad just because
you want to boost a ad, drop one hundred dollars
on it. If you want to get really really technical
and use like Zapier or CRM and integrations like that,
that's going to cost you another fifty dollars. Like I
send out a newsletter every Monday, and I use Brevo
and a Brevo I think it's Brevo. I use Brevo,

(27:20):
and it has all of these automation tubes built right
into the platform. So if I want to sit down
and actually automate a whole bunch of stuff, I could.
But the newsletter is like so like relevant to the
week to I can't automate that for real because I
don't know what's happening. I won't know what's happening until
like the week is over for me to put out
the Monday's issue. So but if you want to do that,
you can integrate that. Now you're getting a little more

(27:41):
technical technical. It's gonna make you have a powerful business
because now you can integrate so many things, especially with zaper,
and make like they would trigger anything for you and
you can put it all into your voice box. But
you gotta be you gotta be ready for that now.
Another one you can use is pivot not pivot pickax
project right. I use that for a lot of chat

(28:01):
by stuff Like I launched Coach Gwen and that's Coach
Gwen g w I n N dot com. Go check
it out. I used. I launched her using Pickaxe project right.
I launched her using that for the when that woman's
chamber comes, it's called Coach Gwen and she is a
chat button. I have to go back and see if
there's a voice feature on there or cannot add a
voice speech, because if I can add a voice feature,

(28:23):
we are in who I got to check that out.
But that's a good place to start if you want
to do chat bots. Only now the startup costs of
between you know, three hundred to five hundred dollars. I
always try to get you in that range. And a
lot of that is going to be based on like
you know, the one hundred dollars is going to go
to your to your business setup, whether you set it
up as an LC or a sober priet or whatever.

(28:44):
You sell it up, set it up as your local fees,
that's there, and your software calls if you use Zapier
or some of these other ones, could charge you anywhere
from twenty dollars to one hundred dollars. So the cost
of the cost of feess is very low. Now let's
talk about some pros and then we're gonna talk about
some cuns. So the pros are starting a boys bout business.

(29:06):
Is it's really low to start it up under five
hundred dollars or less recurrent potential revenue because you can
put people on a subscription plan, you can launch it quick, quick, quick,
quick quick, and it's highly scalable. Highly like you can
scale this because once you get the first model, all
you gotta do is keep repeating the same thing over
and nowhere will you get bored, probably, but maybe not,

(29:27):
because all businesses are different, all clients are different. You
get to talk to different people and different walks of life,
different backgrounds, different industries, so they may not get boring.
But it's a good business to get into. Let's talk
about the cuns. You gotta do some online learning. That's
not a big thing, though. The twos are so amazing.
You can learn it in a weekend, honestly. Okay, I'm

(29:47):
gonna say two weekends. People people say, well, you say
it's easy. It's not easy, clubs, it's easy for you.
I'm gonna say you can learn in two weekends, two
full weekends, Saturday and Sunday, two three hours each day.
Right the company. It's out there. Why because people are saying,
I'm gonna sit down there this weekend, I'm gonna learn
how to do this, and I'm go out there and
selling on Monday. That's why. So the competition is said.

(30:09):
What I will say is help everybody normally. Let me
tell you to pick a niche niche down pick and
you can do that too and do very well. And
because now you got a model that you build just
for let's say dentists, you know dentists, that's they all
do pretty much the same thing. Orthodontists, they all do
pretty much the same thing. You can build just for
an industry. I'll be very I'll be very broad in this,

(30:31):
in this perspective, in this aspect, because you don't know
who needs it, and you can build for anybody because
you're gonna go to their website, you're gonna research their industry,
and you're gonna put the tool, put the information in
their system, and set it up on their website. That's it.
Small businesses may prefer human support. They may, they may,
but but then again, who's answering the phone. I'm just saying,

(30:53):
if they can't answer the phone, who's answering the phone
for them? Nobody? And they're losing business. That could be
a lead generation lead capture situation. You're depending on third
party platforms. That's true. I just said jotform. What what's
crazy about that is I if I were you, I
would start out on the simplest platform, but I would
also be learning in this space every day because if

(31:14):
for some strange reason, you know, you get so attached
to jot form a voice flow, they decided to shut
down and that's the only platform you learn how to
create these voice bots on you can be screwed. I'm
just keeping it real. Think about think about when TikTok
went down that day, people lost their minds because they
built an entire business on TikTok platform and people, and

(31:34):
it's still very shaky. Like I don't even bother anymore.
I was putting like all these videos over them, like, well,
I don't know if it's gonna be around, so why
am I bothering? I don't bother. I still go there
and watching lab, but my channels are just sitting there
because I don't know if they're gonna shut TikTok down.
I don't know if the people gonna piss off the
president and he's shut it down. I don't know, but
that's what I'm saying. So you're depending on third party platforms,

(31:55):
you need to always have like a back pocket kind
of thing. What I would probably say is, and this
is moving down into phase two, create your own platform
that you own, because the tools are out there for
you to do exactly that. Like what I'm gonna try
to create this business in the box, I'm going to
try to own that platform, the entire platform, so I
can resell it. To people who want to start a

(32:16):
business and they don't want to go through the whole
setup process. I'm gonna use some coding. I have coders,
real coder software developers in my circle. As a matter
of fact, we have a wonderful software developer. She's our
tech committee chair for the GIN, that woman's chamber. I'm
gonna create all I can create on passing her like
look at this and seeing am I doing it right?
Because she's a real software developer. I'm a no code developer.

(32:40):
I can create some great stuff with no code, but
I need to make sure it's right, so when I
pull it out, it's mine. That's phase two for you.
Don't think about that unless you have the budget, demandpower,
and the fortitude to learn. Don't think about that. Start
simply get it up and running, stack your money, and
then move into phase two where you're not dependent on
a third party platform that can shut down whenever they

(33:00):
decide to and screw you. All right, You're gonna need
to educate This is a con y'all. This is this
is probably the biggest cun of all. You got to
educate small business owners about the benefits of AI. This
is the biggest This is gonna be your biggest hurdle
because people think AI is coming to kill them. Somebody
told me AI was the devil. There's like I thought

(33:23):
AI was the devil. I'm like, why people are to listen.
You ever heard the saying money is the root of
all evil. That's not true. Money is a tool. People
are evil. Let me say that again. Money is not
the root of all evil. People are evil. Money is
only a tool. AI is a tool. People are evil.
People are the devil. So you can't be afraid of it.

(33:45):
But you're gonna have to educate small business about why
they need this tool. And his wife was starting you
missing sales, your competitors beating you down. I did a
competitive analysis for your industry and right hand you're five
mile radius. You're losing. Be blunt, you're losing. And here's
why you're losing. You're losing because your competitor has this. Well,
it's enough for all of it, it is, But how

(34:06):
much you getting Because I said, they're gonna say it's
enough for all of us to go around. It surely is.
But if nobody knows what you're doing, you're not gonna
get it. Even though it's enough. For everybody to go around.
Let me say that one more time, because you hear
this all time. You don't have to worry about the competitors.
It's enough for everybody. It is. But see your competitor

(34:27):
is doing a good job to make sure they get theirs.
What are you doing? And that's how you're gonna have
to talk with small business owners because they are definitely
afraid of everything. They don't want to spend any money.
They go out of business because they don't want to listen.
They want to spend any money. They don't believe nothing.
I've seen it. I've sat down in meetings with people
who call and say we need help, and I'm sitting
there going over to the marketing planning, Well, how much

(34:47):
money did you spend on this? And listen, I didn't
spend anything. This happened, that happened, but you should going
out of business. Seeing me personally, I don't have a
lot of I have a lot of empathy, right, but
when it comes I must to being an entrepreneur. I
don't have a lot of sympathy because I have done
I have slunk newspapers in the middle of the morning,

(35:08):
three o'clock in the morning, you know, I'll quit my job.
I was all in so for me, I don't do
excuses really well. So and some people don't like that.
They don't like your attitude because you call them out
on their nests. They want to be successful, they want DDC,
but they're not doing anything, but they're going on vacation.
You can't go on vacation. You can't go right now.

(35:29):
You could go in six months, but get the business
up and running and then you go take three days
and you can't go on a long vacation. You can't
go to Maldives because you need that ten thousand dollars
to put in this business that you say you really
want to be successful. Listen, you're gonna have to talk
to them. You're gonna have to educate. That is the
That is gonna be the biggest coun that you faced
right there. Nobody wants to spend money in their business.

(35:51):
They want to spend thee and if they do spend it,
it's a little bit. Well, okay, it's gonna take more.
Hire you a coach. You gotta tell them. Look, if
this is what what you wanna do, you're gonna have
to You're gonna have to go all in ten toes down,
and I'm just keeping it real. And I'm telling y'all
that's the big that is the biggest cun of everything
that I just named as a cun, that is your

(36:11):
biggest one. Explain it to I have a friend, she's
an attorney. She won't even talk the startups. She's like, well,
that's not my market. I don't have time to waste
with them. She won't, so she used to refer to me,
And I'm getting to the point where like, oh, that's
not my market because I don't have a lot of
time to waste. And even though people pay me, sometimes

(36:31):
it's like, man, you should have kept that money because
now you're not gonna do anything. I'm saying, so you
just wasted your money in my time and that sounds
a little arrogant maybe, but I'm just keeping it real.
You gotta be ten toes down for your dream. If
you say you want to do this thing, you want
to go out there and be the best bot voice
box chapreneur, ever, go be that study of industry who's
doing what. Put out a news letter, get in it,

(36:54):
dig in it. Why am I here four days a
week talking with y'all because a minute every day, even
when I'm not talking to you on Fridays, which I
will be soon video, I'm in it every day. When
I had a job, I had two jobs, a baby,
no money back credit. I was in it every day.
I would get off work, spend some when my daughter

(37:16):
came to school, spend some time her. Put her to bed.
She had to go to bed at eight o'clock. You
can't run around here. I got to work because I
got to work in the morning. You got to go
to bed, put her in the bed at eight o'clock,
got right back at it, Go to bed two or
three o'clock in the morning, get back up, start all
over again, go to work, same thing. You got to
put the work in. You got it for going vacations
right now. You know some people don't want to do that.

(37:38):
I'm going on vacation. It's good for hell, it is
good for your help. It may not be good for
your bottom line. It could be good for your bottom line,
you know. But if you're gonna make the business suffer something,
you gotta sacrifice something. And I know somebody don't want
to hear it, And I know people would disagree. All
of that I get it. I'm just telling you what
I've done. I'm just telling you what I continuously do.
I'm ten toes down from mine, and I'm here you

(38:00):
me every day talking about So listen, there's a whole
full blown article on the website good morning when that
dot come go there and look at it. Because I
didn't get a chance to go through everything. Y'all know,
I give you all the basis. How much it start
where you used to start at. You know what the
industry is looking like, how much money you can make?
Do the math? You say, you know what, I'm going
out and get fifty businesses over the next five months.

(38:20):
I'm gonna land ten a month. Create a plan and
you go out and you make sure you're not to
get that ten businesses. You gotta talk to one hundred
a month. Let me say that part to get that
ten voice bought businesses, you gotta talk to at least
one hundred a month. At least you gotta figure out
how to do that. Are you knocking on doors? Are
you sending out mellars? Are you sending out one hundred
millars a month? Because you sent out one hundred, you

(38:42):
may get ten by your fifth month, you got fifty
clients paying you ninety seven dollars. Was that six seven
thousand dollars a month recurring? Let me do the math.
I'm an ending right there. So let's say you got
fifty and the set up fee. Let's say the set
up here is five ninety five times five ninety five.
That's twenty nine thousand, seven hundred and fifty dollars right there,

(39:03):
just from the just from the sign up. Now you
got fifty times let's say ninety seven four thousand, eight
hundred and fifty dollars a month times twelve fifty eight
thousand dollars a year. Fifty thousand, almost sixty thousand dollars
now you made. You may remember, now you'd have made
plus at that twenty nine thousand act now plus twenty

(39:24):
nine thousand, I don't know, let's say five hundreds. I
forgot what it was. So for that one year, you
have made eighty seven thousand dollars, seven hundred eighty seven thousand,
seven hundred dollars, probably a little bit more. Fifty clients
right the first twenty nine thousand. You made that in
ten days. The rest of it just m just money
coming to the bank eighty seven thousand dollars. Can you

(39:46):
use it extra eighty seven thousand dollars in your life.
I'm just asking a question. That's fifty clients. That means
you had to talk to five thousand people. Can you
do that? I'm just saying to get that's fifty you
can do it. You can do it. I believe even
you can do it. All right, That's all I got
for you today. You could have been anywhere in the world,
but just spent the last forty minutes for me, and

(40:06):
