I have a public lock. Let’s get into it. I have a lot to talk about today. I have not been lot to talk about today. I have not been lot to talk about today. I have not been doing a lot of coding on agents code, my doing a lot of coding on agents code, my doing a lot of coding on agents code, my micro AI agent micro AI agent micro AI agent library collection. I don’t know. And library collection. I don’t know. And library collection. I don’t know. And the reason why I haven’t been doing a the reason why I haven’t been doing a the reason why I haven’t been doing a lot of coding is I could I could code. I lot of coding is I could I could code. I lot of coding is I could I could code. I could ship. I have been paid could ship. I have been paid could ship. I have been paid professionally to code full-time for professionally to code full-time for professionally to code full-time for almost 20 years. It’s n it’s been uh 19 almost 20 years. It’s n it’s been uh 19 almost 20 years. It’s n it’s been uh 19 years now. Like I could obviously code years now. Like I could obviously code years now. Like I could obviously code and ship stuff with AI. Obviously I have and ship stuff with AI. Obviously I have and ship stuff with AI. Obviously I have even more superpowers to ship. I am not even more superpowers to ship. I am not even more superpowers to ship. I am not a marketing person. I’m a software a marketing person. I’m a software a marketing person. I’m a software engineer. Like that that is what I’ve engineer. Like that that is what I’ve engineer. Like that that is what I’ve done for 15 years. Even before that I done for 15 years. Even before that I done for 15 years. Even before that I was paid to program at a software was paid to program at a software was paid to program at a software company. I am not a marketing person. So company. I am not a marketing person. So company. I am not a marketing person. So I’ve been spending a lot of my time I’ve been spending a lot of my time I’ve been spending a lot of my time marketing. marketing. marketing. I will never ever ever be successful I will never ever ever be successful I will never ever ever be successful unless I get good at marketing, unless I unless I get good at marketing, unless I unless I get good at marketing, unless I become a marketer. And I need ideally to become a marketer. And I need ideally to become a marketer. And I need ideally to be as good at marketing as I am at be as good at marketing as I am at be as good at marketing as I am at shipping and building and being a shipping and building and being a shipping and building and being a software engineer. So that’s why I’ve software engineer. So that’s why I’ve software engineer. So that’s why I’ve been spending so much time on marketing been spending so much time on marketing been spending so much time on marketing activities because frankly you need to activities because frankly you need to activities because frankly you need to do the marketing before you actually try do the marketing before you actually try do the marketing before you actually try to have a uh go to market and you know to have a uh go to market and you know to have a uh go to market and you know you when you think you have a product you when you think you have a product you when you think you have a product market fit and you go to market you need market fit and you go to market you need market fit and you go to market you need to do the marketing beforehand. It’s to do the marketing beforehand. It’s to do the marketing beforehand. It’s kind of the purpose of this channel. kind of the purpose of this channel. kind of the purpose of this channel. It’s kind of the purpose of all the It’s kind of the purpose of all the It’s kind of the purpose of all the activities I’ve been doing. So, talked activities I’ve been doing. So, talked activities I’ve been doing. So, talked about this in yesterday’s video, but um about this in yesterday’s video, but um about this in yesterday’s video, but um I am doing more and more little things I am doing more and more little things I am doing more and more little things to get attention to to to to figure out to get attention to to to to figure out to get attention to to to to figure out by trial and error how to market by trial and error how to market by trial and error how to market successfully. This week, I had a pretty successfully. This week, I had a pretty successfully. This week, I had a pretty good success, one of the better good success, one of the better good success, one of the better successes I’ve had. I’ve had successes I’ve had. I’ve had successes I’ve had. I’ve had good success a few times in a previous good success a few times in a previous good success a few times in a previous business, business, business, but that was years ago and it’s so but that was years ago and it’s so but that was years ago and it’s so different now. These are the stats for a different now. These are the stats for a different now. These are the stats for a little open- source project I put out little open- source project I put out little open- source project I put out under my newsletter. The idea is to put under my newsletter. The idea is to put under my newsletter. The idea is to put something out there, get a URL something out there, get a URL something out there, get a URL for the newsletter all over the place, for the newsletter all over the place, for the newsletter all over the place, get links. Hopefully, people link to get links. Hopefully, people link to get links. Hopefully, people link to this. So, look, you can already see uh this. So, look, you can already see uh this. So, look, you can already see uh tons of tons of things organically have tons of tons of things organically have tons of tons of things organically have linked linked linked to this to this to this these these these Some of these are going to like look at Some of these are going to like look at Some of these are going to like look at some of this like from Slack. some of this like from Slack. some of this like from Slack. These are not maybe not all of them, but These are not maybe not all of them, but These are not maybe not all of them, but a lot of these will turn into backlinks a lot of these will turn into backlinks a lot of these will turn into backlinks that that will you know add domain that that will you know add domain that that will you know add domain authority to that site. There’s a link authority to that site. There’s a link authority to that site. There’s a link directly to the newsletter. directly to the newsletter. directly to the newsletter. Uh you know these kinds of things just Uh you know these kinds of things just Uh you know these kinds of things just exponentially compound and exponentially compound and exponentially compound and get get traffic to the newsletter. What get get traffic to the newsletter. What get get traffic to the newsletter. What is the purpose of the newsletter? To is the purpose of the newsletter? To is the purpose of the newsletter? To build an audience of tech-minded people, build an audience of tech-minded people, build an audience of tech-minded people, add value. Just do my part to make the add value. Just do my part to make the add value. Just do my part to make the internet better. And a part of that is internet better. And a part of that is internet better. And a part of that is building [  ] people really need and building [  ] people really need and building [  ] people really need and really want. So once I establish an really want. So once I establish an really want. So once I establish an audience and there’s there’s I I find audience and there’s there’s I I find audience and there’s there’s I I find something I could build that people something I could build that people something I could build that people really need, I put it out there. And really need, I put it out there. And really need, I put it out there. And hey, check out this thing I built. hey, check out this thing I built. hey, check out this thing I built. Hopefully you need this. Hopefully this Hopefully you need this. Hopefully this Hopefully you need this. Hopefully this helps helps unlock value in your helps helps unlock value in your helps helps unlock value in your business, your personal life. That’s the business, your personal life. That’s the business, your personal life. That’s the whole purpose of sales. In my opinion, whole purpose of sales. In my opinion, whole purpose of sales. In my opinion, being a good salesperson is not being being a good salesperson is not being being a good salesperson is not being like the sleazy guy at the car like the sleazy guy at the car like the sleazy guy at the car dealership. It’s actually addressing dealership. It’s actually addressing dealership. It’s actually addressing someone’s need successfully and well, someone’s need successfully and well, someone’s need successfully and well, like it’s just I mean it sounds so like it’s just I mean it sounds so like it’s just I mean it sounds so simple, but a lot of people I think [  ] simple, but a lot of people I think [  ] simple, but a lot of people I think [  ] this up and they try to do all these this up and they try to do all these this up and they try to do all these mind tricks and sleazy [  ] I don’t mind tricks and sleazy [  ] I don’t mind tricks and sleazy [  ] I don’t want to sell crap to people or like want to sell crap to people or like want to sell crap to people or like being a scammer. I hate scammers. I hate being a scammer. I hate scammers. I hate being a scammer. I hate scammers. I hate hate people. I truly want to build [  ] hate people. I truly want to build [  ] hate people. I truly want to build [  ] that actually unlocks value that that actually unlocks value that that actually unlocks value that actually is successful. Another thing actually is successful. Another thing actually is successful. Another thing I’ve been working on, there’s this I’ve been working on, there’s this I’ve been working on, there’s this really cool tool, siphon. I never know how to pronounce siphon. I never know how to pronounce siphon. I never know how to pronounce this. Uh but anyways, that’s the URL. So this. Uh but anyways, that’s the URL. So this. Uh but anyways, that’s the URL. So this I love this [  ] tool. There’s this I love this [  ] tool. There’s this I love this [  ] tool. There’s all these places you can track it. it it all these places you can track it. it it all these places you can track it. it it will automatically track across the will automatically track across the will automatically track across the internet for keywords. So, you put in internet for keywords. So, you put in internet for keywords. So, you put in like very specific keywords like Reddit. like very specific keywords like Reddit. like very specific keywords like Reddit. Here’s an example that I’m going to show Here’s an example that I’m going to show Here’s an example that I’m going to show you from Reddit where Twitter, but you from Reddit where Twitter, but you from Reddit where Twitter, but Twitter, um YouTube, but you have to pay Twitter, um YouTube, but you have to pay Twitter, um YouTube, but you have to pay extra for those cuz the API um Slack, extra for those cuz the API um Slack, extra for those cuz the API um Slack, all these like big public Slack all these like big public Slack all these like big public Slack channels. I mean, it tracks all over the channels. I mean, it tracks all over the channels. I mean, it tracks all over the internet. You find a keyword, you find internet. You find a keyword, you find internet. You find a keyword, you find someone talking about something. So, I someone talking about something. So, I someone talking about something. So, I put in stumble upon and I see all these put in stumble upon and I see all these put in stumble upon and I see all these people reminiscing about Stumble Upon. people reminiscing about Stumble Upon. people reminiscing about Stumble Upon. So, I’m going in there and being like, So, I’m going in there and being like, So, I’m going in there and being like, “Hey, here is uh Stumble Upon in your “Hey, here is uh Stumble Upon in your “Hey, here is uh Stumble Upon in your inbox as a newsletter.” And so, I’ve inbox as a newsletter.” And so, I’ve inbox as a newsletter.” And so, I’ve been experimenting with that quite a been experimenting with that quite a been experimenting with that quite a bit. And this is pretty powerful because bit. And this is pretty powerful because bit. And this is pretty powerful because it is there like Reddit, it’s locked on it is there like Reddit, it’s locked on it is there like Reddit, it’s locked on there. It like the thread will be there there. It like the thread will be there there. It like the thread will be there for a long time. You know, there’s a lot for a long time. You know, there’s a lot for a long time. You know, there’s a lot of SEO. People will Google things and go of SEO. People will Google things and go of SEO. People will Google things and go and click into that thread. I do that and click into that thread. I do that and click into that thread. I do that all the time. So, you want like links all the time. So, you want like links all the time. So, you want like links just persistently being there over time. just persistently being there over time. just persistently being there over time. The more links you get, the better it The more links you get, the better it The more links you get, the better it is. So, uh, I’ve experimented a lot with is. So, uh, I’ve experimented a lot with is. So, uh, I’ve experimented a lot with this tool where I respond and people this tool where I respond and people this tool where I respond and people have like started following me. People have like started following me. People have like started following me. People are subscribing to the newsletter. I’ve are subscribing to the newsletter. I’ve are subscribing to the newsletter. I’ve gotten a decent amount of subscribers. gotten a decent amount of subscribers. gotten a decent amount of subscribers. Um, Um, Um, but I realized a few things. You don’t but I realized a few things. You don’t but I realized a few things. You don’t want to just go like, “Oh, here’s a cool want to just go like, “Oh, here’s a cool want to just go like, “Oh, here’s a cool thing. Here’s the URL.” People don’t thing. Here’s the URL.” People don’t thing. Here’s the URL.” People don’t like that. It looks very spammy. It’s like that. It looks very spammy. It’s like that. It looks very spammy. It’s like you’re not adding value. So, what like you’re not adding value. So, what like you’re not adding value. So, what I’ve been doing, I kind of switched my I’ve been doing, I kind of switched my I’ve been doing, I kind of switched my tactic and I I point to al like tactic and I I point to al like tactic and I I point to al like alternatives. Like here’s one alternatives. Like here’s one alternatives. Like here’s one cloudhiker.net. That’s like stumble cloudhiker.net. That’s like stumble cloudhiker.net. That’s like stumble upon. It’s you click a button on the upon. It’s you click a button on the upon. It’s you click a button on the page and it shows you all these pages. page and it shows you all these pages. page and it shows you all these pages. Um so I’m I’m going and like I responded Um so I’m I’m going and like I responded Um so I’m I’m going and like I responded right before this. Somebody put a list right before this. Somebody put a list right before this. Somebody put a list of sites that are like alternatives. I of sites that are like alternatives. I of sites that are like alternatives. I added several really cool sites that do added several really cool sites that do added several really cool sites that do the same thing. I added to this guy’s the same thing. I added to this guy’s the same thing. I added to this guy’s list of sites, but I also slipped in my list of sites, but I also slipped in my list of sites, but I also slipped in my newsletter. So you you have to add newsletter. So you you have to add newsletter. So you you have to add value, not just go and blindly spam value, not just go and blindly spam value, not just go and blindly spam because I saw people who were not because I saw people who were not because I saw people who were not responding well to that. So I’m just responding well to that. So I’m just responding well to that. So I’m just trying to add value and be like, “Hey, trying to add value and be like, “Hey, trying to add value and be like, “Hey, that’s really cool. I actually didn’t that’s really cool. I actually didn’t that’s really cool. I actually didn’t know about this. I I genuinely told know about this. I I genuinely told know about this. I I genuinely told someone that the other day.” I was like, someone that the other day.” I was like, someone that the other day.” I was like, “Hey, I didn’t know about this site. “Hey, I didn’t know about this site. “Hey, I didn’t know about this site. That’s really cool. I I use the service. That’s really cool. I I use the service. That’s really cool. I I use the service. Here’s another one. Here’s another one. Here’s another one. Here’s another one. Here’s another one. Here’s another one. Oh, and here’s here’s a thing I’m Oh, and here’s here’s a thing I’m Oh, and here’s here’s a thing I’m working on. I I’m trying to do that for working on. I I’m trying to do that for working on. I I’m trying to do that for a newsletter.” So I’m trying to add a newsletter.” So I’m trying to add a newsletter.” So I’m trying to add value. But if I show up every day and do value. But if I show up every day and do value. But if I show up every day and do this, I I’m sure I’ll be able to get a this, I I’m sure I’ll be able to get a this, I I’m sure I’ll be able to get a lot of subscribers and links. And the lot of subscribers and links. And the lot of subscribers and links. And the idea is to test this out, use this for idea is to test this out, use this for idea is to test this out, use this for the newsletter, and then when I launch the newsletter, and then when I launch the newsletter, and then when I launch like a real AI agent thing, then I can like a real AI agent thing, then I can like a real AI agent thing, then I can apply that same methodology to that. So apply that same methodology to that. So apply that same methodology to that. So to wrap this up, what the hell have I to wrap this up, what the hell have I to wrap this up, what the hell have I been doing with my time been doing with my time been doing with my time trying out this tool and like very very trying out this tool and like very very trying out this tool and like very very manually going and responding to people? manually going and responding to people? manually going and responding to people? that is something that does not scale. that is something that does not scale. that is something that does not scale. But at this point, you need to do things But at this point, you need to do things But at this point, you need to do things that don’t scale. Uh the other thing I’m that don’t scale. Uh the other thing I’m that don’t scale. Uh the other thing I’m doing is I found, speaking of Reddit, so doing is I found, speaking of Reddit, so doing is I found, speaking of Reddit, so I found a subreddit of people building I found a subreddit of people building I found a subreddit of people building AI agents cuz I’m looking for AI agents cuz I’m looking for AI agents cuz I’m looking for communities to uh lurk in communities to uh lurk in communities to uh lurk in and to possibly find people to to just and to possibly find people to to just and to possibly find people to to just cold DM and be like, “Hey, can I talk to cold DM and be like, “Hey, can I talk to cold DM and be like, “Hey, can I talk to you about your challenges building AI?” you about your challenges building AI?” you about your challenges building AI?” you just it’s it makes more sense to go you just it’s it makes more sense to go you just it’s it makes more sense to go find a community than like go to find a community than like go to find a community than like go to LinkedIn and start spamming people. LinkedIn and start spamming people. LinkedIn and start spamming people. That’s garbage. So, I’m like I’ve been That’s garbage. So, I’m like I’ve been That’s garbage. So, I’m like I’ve been looking for communities to like looking for communities to like looking for communities to like strategically just go find the people. strategically just go find the people. strategically just go find the people. Here’s here’s someone who has an AI Here’s here’s someone who has an AI Here’s here’s someone who has an AI automation agency exactly the people I automation agency exactly the people I automation agency exactly the people I want to talk to and target. And I I want to talk to and target. And I I want to talk to and target. And I I found this and I I did a lot of reading found this and I I did a lot of reading found this and I I did a lot of reading showing me that my hypothesis is showing me that my hypothesis is showing me that my hypothesis is correct. correct. correct. Uh micro agents are the way to go. And I Uh micro agents are the way to go. And I Uh micro agents are the way to go. And I wanted to point this out wanted to point this out wanted to point this out what this guy said. He said, “I’ve been what this guy said. He said, “I’ve been what this guy said. He said, “I’ve been building agents for almost two years. building agents for almost two years. building agents for almost two years. The build is the easy part. The real job The build is the easy part. The real job The build is the easy part. The real job starts after you launch. You spend most starts after you launch. You spend most starts after you launch. You spend most of your time babysitting the agent, of your time babysitting the agent, of your time babysitting the agent, fixing silent errors, explaining to the fixing silent errors, explaining to the fixing silent errors, explaining to the client why the latest Open AI update client why the latest Open AI update client why the latest Open AI update broke their workflow. broke their workflow. broke their workflow. Uh, tools like Blackbox AI have been a Uh, tools like Blackbox AI have been a Uh, tools like Blackbox AI have been a lifesaver for quickly debugging and lifesaver for quickly debugging and lifesaver for quickly debugging and iterating agent code when things break iterating agent code when things break iterating agent code when things break at 2 a.m. Now I have a at 2 a.m. Now I have a at 2 a.m. Now I have a competitor. I could put that in the the competitor. I could put that in the the competitor. I could put that in the the conversation tracker, find conversations conversation tracker, find conversations conversation tracker, find conversations about it, see their weaknesses, and try about it, see their weaknesses, and try about it, see their weaknesses, and try to uh work backwards and and and make my to uh work backwards and and and make my to uh work backwards and and and make my platform platform platform double down on their weaknesses. I can double down on their weaknesses. I can double down on their weaknesses. I can go join in conversations where people go join in conversations where people go join in conversations where people are talking about them and be like, are talking about them and be like, are talking about them and be like, “Hey, you know what? I’m trying to “Hey, you know what? I’m trying to “Hey, you know what? I’m trying to address that with agents code here, you address that with agents code here, you address that with agents code here, you know, know, know, uh, blah blah blah blah blah x y and z.” uh, blah blah blah blah blah x y and z.” uh, blah blah blah blah blah x y and z.” You’re not selling AI, you’re selling You’re not selling AI, you’re selling You’re not selling AI, you’re selling business outcomes. So, what he’s talking business outcomes. So, what he’s talking business outcomes. So, what he’s talking about though was interesting because about though was interesting because about though was interesting because this is exactly what I’m trying to build this is exactly what I’m trying to build this is exactly what I’m trying to build with agents code. I do all of this work. with agents code. I do all of this work. with agents code. I do all of this work. Uh, models are updated automatically. Uh, models are updated automatically. Uh, models are updated automatically. um errors are addressed automatically, um errors are addressed automatically, um errors are addressed automatically, iteratively. I am I am trying to do all iteratively. I am I am trying to do all iteratively. I am I am trying to do all of this and my and this guy is is of this and my and this guy is is of this and my and this guy is is telling me my hypothesis is is dead on, telling me my hypothesis is is dead on, telling me my hypothesis is is dead on, but I need to not just read a Reddit but I need to not just read a Reddit but I need to not just read a Reddit post that’s kind of a semi ad. I need to post that’s kind of a semi ad. I need to post that’s kind of a semi ad. I need to actually go talk to people and really actually go talk to people and really actually go talk to people and really dig deeper and and confirm this by dig deeper and and confirm this by dig deeper and and confirm this by talking to many people, not just reading talking to many people, not just reading talking to many people, not just reading Reddit. Uh but this this has been a gold Reddit. Uh but this this has been a gold Reddit. Uh but this this has been a gold mine. I’m seeing pro I’m seeing people mine. I’m seeing pro I’m seeing people mine. I’m seeing pro I’m seeing people explain very clearly what the problems explain very clearly what the problems explain very clearly what the problems are that they’re facing. I’m finding are that they’re facing. I’m finding are that they’re facing. I’m finding competitors I could go track and stipen competitors I could go track and stipen competitors I could go track and stipen I don’t know how to pronounce that I don’t know how to pronounce that I don’t know how to pronounce that again. This was quite useful to go again. This was quite useful to go again. This was quite useful to go through and read all of this. So I I did through and read all of this. So I I did through and read all of this. So I I did quite a bit of that yesterday. I do just quite a bit of that yesterday. I do just quite a bit of that yesterday. I do just want to point to how much the traffic want to point to how much the traffic want to point to how much the traffic increased for the newsletter by by doing increased for the newsletter by by doing increased for the newsletter by by doing that releasing that free tool on behalf that releasing that free tool on behalf that releasing that free tool on behalf of the newsletter. Um, traffic is up of the newsletter. Um, traffic is up of the newsletter. Um, traffic is up over 300%. Views compared to what I was over 300%. Views compared to what I was over 300%. Views compared to what I was having before. Obviously, not a lot, but having before. Obviously, not a lot, but having before. Obviously, not a lot, but the conversion rate is quite high. 8 8% the conversion rate is quite high. 8 8% the conversion rate is quite high. 8 8% for people who subscribe who go to the for people who subscribe who go to the for people who subscribe who go to the page. So, not bad. Um, I would like to page. So, not bad. Um, I would like to page. So, not bad. Um, I would like to get that up to 20%, my old newsletter get that up to 20%, my old newsletter get that up to 20%, my old newsletter was 20%. Like I said, I’m doing a ton of was 20%. Like I said, I’m doing a ton of was 20%. Like I said, I’m doing a ton of marketing work because [  ] coding. I marketing work because [  ] coding. I marketing work because [  ] coding. I need to become a marketer. That isn’t need to become a marketer. That isn’t need to become a marketer. That isn’t how I’m going to have success. Uh, I set how I’m going to have success. Uh, I set how I’m going to have success. Uh, I set myself a goal of 31 subscribers by the myself a goal of 31 subscribers by the myself a goal of 31 subscribers by the end of the month. So, by Sunday, I got end of the month. So, by Sunday, I got end of the month. So, by Sunday, I got there early. I’m super super stoked. I there early. I’m super super stoked. I there early. I’m super super stoked. I am going to try to have exponential am going to try to have exponential am going to try to have exponential growth. So, next month I want 60 growth. So, next month I want 60 growth. So, next month I want 60 subscribers. I want the an average of subscribers. I want the an average of subscribers. I want the an average of two subscribers a day. Uh, then the next two subscribers a day. Uh, then the next two subscribers a day. Uh, then the next month I want three. So, I’m I’m trying month I want three. So, I’m I’m trying month I want three. So, I’m I’m trying to exponentially to exponentially to exponentially basically get subscribers until I hit basically get subscribers until I hit basically get subscribers until I hit 10,000 plus subscribers. How am I going 10,000 plus subscribers. How am I going 10,000 plus subscribers. How am I going to do that? What else have I been to do that? What else have I been to do that? What else have I been working on? I’m going to run some ads. I working on? I’m going to run some ads. I working on? I’m going to run some ads. I need to just supercharge this. I I need to just supercharge this. I I need to just supercharge this. I I really ads are the way to go. really ads are the way to go. really ads are the way to go. Unfortunately, I’m going to I’m going to Unfortunately, I’m going to I’m going to Unfortunately, I’m going to I’m going to do some targeted ads. I’m going to try do some targeted ads.

I It’s going to be a very short project. I need to make some money for for next need to make some money for for next need to make some money for for next month. I made some money this month. I month. I made some money this month. I month. I made some money this month. I need to make money next month. So need to make money next month. So need to make money next month. So hopefully that’s the only thing I I do hopefully that’s the only thing I I do hopefully that’s the only thing I I do next month except for business related next month except for business related next month except for business related stuff. So next week I’m fully booked stuff. So next week I’m fully booked stuff. So next week I’m fully booked probably probably probably uh all week, even the weekend. Maybe uh all week, even the weekend.
