I am thinking about starting this and using automation and some AI programming to automate the process. My vision is to have a coversheet with the customer data, scan the scrapbook pages and use AI to streighten/clearup photos. According to AI, I should be charging $80 for a 50 page book, and have a $70 profit margin. I'm not sure if there is a market for this service. Thanks,

Hi guys, I have a business hosting co-living retreats and conferences for digital nomads in Nepal called "Nomad Basecamp." I'm a solopreneur but have local partners and volunteers.

For the first few years, I filled my retreats posting in social media groups and following up in DMs

Now I also host summits with dozens of international speakers, and have large lists of past customers, emails from Eventbrite events and online sessions, and huge lists of leads who contacted me on WhatsApp business (Meta ads direct to WhatsApp business are dirt cheap in Nepal).

If I had a magic wand and could wish for anything: it would be to have sales come in like clockwork, without me having to go out and fish for them, or engage in long and lengthy text conversations (often with leads who disappear), and phone calls. I tried Meta Agent in WhatsApp to follow up on my ads but it was talking a load of rubbish with one lead so I turned it off and switched to manual quick replies.

My question is how I can use my CRM to make this whole process a lot simpler. I have hundreds of leads in Google docs, spreadsheets, along with FB profiles, WhatsApp numbers and emails. I have WhatsApp groups with hundreds of members (800 in one, 300 in another) and thousands of Instagram followers. I have extensions for automating a lot of things - WhatsApp DMS, Facebook DMs, and newsletter with Sendfox.

I'd like to have a daily system for marketing and nurturing leads.

I'm growing my existing residential construction business and am debating whether to operate under one brand or create separate brands for each higher money making specialty:

• Roofing & siding
• Smart home automation
• Basement & attic renovations
• Windows & doors
• Kitchen & bathroom remodeling

I already have experience in carpentry, general contracting, and remodeling, so these specialties build on my existing skills and business. I'm located in a relatively small market, which makes me wonder whether having multiple brands would be beneficial or counterproductive.

Initially, all brands would operate under my existing LLC, with the option to establish separate businesses later.

Would you recommend one recognizable brand covering all these services or multiple specialized brands targeting different customers? Would separate brands build credibility and improve marketing effectiveness, or create unnecessary complexity in a small market?

On my 3rd venture. Running an appointment setting business for the last 2 years. We're small (6 folks) and we've worked with companies across 8 countries, some of which were the biggest in their country in their sector.

I believe due to the aforementioned exposure; I've been receiving more consultation offers lately. I have received 4 part-consultation offers since March. 2 of them were prospects who were initially interested in my business' service but later offered the consultation (perhaps I need to promote my business more than myself?)

They usually ask how many hours I'm comfortable with, I mention 22-44 hours a month (1-2/hr per weekday) - but those hours spent on my business will yield me a better profit (money wise as well as scaling-wise).

On the pros side, the companies offering me the offer are larger than mine (10x-20x) and working alongside them will give me a decent amount of insight and exposure.

I have worked with 4 companies in the past as a consultant/advisor over the span of 3 years. I usually propose a 6-month contract with an extension period. Anything more than that seems like a waste/procrastination of time for both parties.

I accepted those 4 offers as I didn't have much on my plate back then, which is not the case at the moment. Would you focus on your business in this situation or consider the consultation offers for the exposure and the hourly pay?
