AI Automation Money-Making Insights
Key Money-Making Insights
Nick emphasizes that cold email marketing delivers far better ROI than Facebook ads for small budgets, with $150 buying months of outreach versus wasted ad spend. Target schools and organizations with funding rather than individual teachers, as they often have grants and budgets specifically for automation solutions. Focus on delivering value and taking action rather than getting caught up in technical complexities or market speculation.
Top 3 Money-Making Q&As
Question 1
I have $150 budget. Should I use Facebook ads or cold email marketing to sell my services?
Cold email. $150 buys you months of cold outreach. You get way more shots at finding a client with cold email versus ads. Facebook ads at that budget are almost always a waste.
Question 2
Started on Upwork, built a workflow for a teacher saving 2-3 hours a day. Have you done work in education, and what are your thoughts on targeting schools versus teachers?
Target schools, not just teachers. Schools often have funding for this stuff. Pitching with the angle that someone else pays (school funds, grants, incentives) boosts conversions. I've run similar campaigns for education orgs and government digital modernization grants. Always push the benefit that the buyer isn't footing the bill.
Question 3
How do you sell a new high ticket service that doesn't have existing results to showcase?
Position it as an improved version of a prior offer that did have results. Implied or stated, the new version is better, so they'll get at least the previous results, probably more. Use social proof and strong sales skills to bridge the gap.
