Nick Saraev Daily Update - Money-Making AI Insights
Key Money-Making Insights
Focus on smart cost per acquisition where your acquisition cost is a fraction of gross revenue rather than broad business targeting. Building quick MVPs first and using client-owned accounts for automation services reduces liability while creating additional revenue streams through affiliate margins. Technical skills remain essential for profitable automation workflows, with AI serving as a leverage multiplier rather than a complete replacement.
Top Money-Making Q&As
Question 1
When onboarding a client, should they create their own NADN or Make account and what other client access is needed?
Creating a NADN or Make account is non-negotiable. It simplifies handoffs, reduces liability, and avoids recurring costs on your end. It also allows using affiliate links for margin. Running everything on their account is more transparent and safer.
Question 2
What are your thoughts on starting with LinkedIn ads for an agency targeting businesses?
Targeting business is not a sufficient qualifier for smart ads. Smart means cost per acquisition is a fraction of gross revenue. I don't personally use LinkedIn ads. Outbound outreach via cold email or LinkedIn DMs is simpler and more effective than inbound funnels with ads.
Question 3
Should a new automation learner pick a job and learn or build an MVP first?
Build a quick MVP first, then figure out the rest. Time is a big barrier. Use Make's AI builder or Claude/ChatGPT to prototype flows quickly, record a video walkthrough, then send it to potential clients.
