Free AI agent course: build and sell AI agents in 10 short lessons.

Before you open any tool, know what you're aiming for. AI agents are sold as a monthly service: you build one agent that answers customers, books appointments or follows up leads, and the business pays you every month to keep it running.

Example math on a common monthly price, not an income claim. Your niche, price and effort decide the result.

Your move: Write down the monthly number you want and divide it by €500. That's how many clients you need.

Nobody wakes up wanting "AI". A dentist wants fewer missed calls. A gym wants leads that don't go cold. Sell a job that already costs the business money today:

• Answer every call and message, 24/7
• Book, reschedule and remind (fewer no-shows)
• Follow up every new lead within minutes

Your move: Pick one job and one niche (dentists, gyms, salons). That sentence is your first offer.

Two parts. A one-off setup fee for building the agent and connecting it to their phone, calendar or CRM. A monthly fee for hosting, monitoring and improving it. Start with a short paid pilot on one job, show the result, then move to the monthly plan.

Example prices, not an income claim.

Your first client is not a stranger.

1. Businesses you already know. Your dentist, gym, salon, garage. Ask what costs them time every week.
2. Google Maps reviews. Search a local niche and read the reviews. "Never picks up the phone" is a job an AI agent can do.
3. A small paid pilot. Offer 2 weeks on that one job, then the monthly plan.

The pilot is your sales pitch.

You don't need to code. You need 5 building blocks:

1. Knowledge. The FAQ, prices and opening hours in one doc.
2. Instructions. The tone, what it may answer, what it must never say.
3. Channel. Where customers already ask: website chat, WhatsApp or phone.
4. One action. Book the appointment or capture the lead.
5. Human handoff. When it's unsure, it passes the chat to a person.

Your move: Test it with 20 real customer questions before it goes live.

Most first deals fail because the agent tries to do everything. Keep it small enough to prove:

1. One boring problem. Missed calls, slow replies, no-shows. Something they already complain about.
2. One task. The agent does that one job, nothing else.
3. A paid 14-day pilot. Small, paid, with a start and an end date.
4. One number. Agree before you start what you'll count, like calls answered or appointments booked.
5. Day 14: show the number. Then offer the monthly fee.

Your move: Write the one number you'll track for your first pilot in one sentence.

You'll hear the same four. Have the answer ready, and never answer with a discount:

Your move: Write your own answer to "too expensive" before your first call.

Don't sell "AI". Sell the job each niche already struggles with:

• Dentists: recalls and fewer no-shows
• Salons: answer DMs at 9pm and book them
• Home services: call back a missed call within 2 minutes
• Real estate: qualify leads and book viewings
• Restaurants: take reservations around the clock

Your move: Pick one niche from this list and find 10 of those businesses near you on Google Maps.

Every agent you sell is built from the same five layers. You don't need all of them on day one:

1. Brain. The language model, like Claude or GPT.
2. Workflows. The automation that moves data, like n8n or Make.
3. Chat. The chat interface, like Voiceflow.
4. Voice. Phone agents, like Vapi or Retell.
5. Memory. Where customer data lives, like Airtable or Google Sheets.

Your move: Start with layers 1 and 2 only. Add chat or voice when a client needs it.
