The series
An agency owner puts AI to work, on camera
Three kinds of video. Build-in-public episodes where I make something real for a real business and show the costs. Evergreen tool explainers on what the models are actually good for in agency work. And "The Free Version": taking a well-known paid program and showing the build-it-yourself route, with no opinion on whether the program is legit, only on price and access.
Rules I hold myself to: say who should buy the paid thing in the first ninety seconds and mean it; never claim a product does not work; concede the strong points out loud; disclose my own costs. The free route still costs roughly $20 to $100 a month in tools plus real ad spend, never $0.
New videos most weeks. The latest are below.
AI in real client work, plus the free version.
