00:00:00.000 If I went from 100 million today to broke overnight,
00:00:03.000 here's exactly what I would do.
00:00:04.380 I'm walking down the street to where all the businesses are
00:00:07.180 and I'm trying to figure out what they're doing
00:00:09.120 with their time that I could automate using AI.
00:00:11.640 So if I go into a restaurant,
00:00:13.600 I do like a lead gen service.
00:00:15.240 I don't know, because I've never started restaurants,
00:00:17.080 how to get more customers for restaurants.
00:00:19.020 But AI will tell me, I'm gonna build a plan,
00:00:21.120 go back to the manager I just talked to.
00:00:22.600 And I go, here's my plan.
00:00:23.820 Do I have confirmation if I get you more customers,
00:00:25.780 you're gonna give me a piece of their total bill?
00:00:27.600 And he'll go, heck yeah, I'll give you 15%.
00:00:29.620 How do I know what to charge?
00:00:30.860 I asked AI.
00:00:31.720 So I want to go get three to five more restaurants
00:00:33.800 on that street to give me the exact same contract.
00:00:36.580 And by the fourth or fifth,
00:00:38.040 I'm probably asking them to give me a deposit.
00:00:40.320 If I had to bring down the steps,
00:00:41.540 one, talk to a potential customer
00:00:43.200 and figure out what problems they have.
00:00:44.380 Two, design an offer that is compelling
00:00:46.700 that they would pay for.
00:00:47.860 Three, go sell that same offer to other customers
00:00:50.080 that look like them.
00:00:50.940 Four, then deliver on what you sold.
00:00:53.600 Five, get off the streets.
