EP 541 The Manus AI Revolution | How Parents Are Building Digital Empires

1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,954
I want you to picture this.

2
00:00:00,981 --> 00:00:04,936
While you were tucking your kids
into bed last night, Manis AI just

3
00:00:04,936 --> 00:00:09,627
became the fastest company in history
to hit $100 million in revenue,

4
00:00:09,927 --> 00:00:11,972
eight months, zero to nine figures.

5
00:00:11,972 --> 00:00:14,181
And here's the kicker,
meta just bought them.

6
00:00:14,581 --> 00:00:15,890
For 2 billion.

7
00:00:15,972 --> 00:00:21,072
Yeah, that's billion with a B, because
while chat, GPT answers questions,

8
00:00:21,127 --> 00:00:24,209
Manus AI actually does work for you.

9
00:00:24,345 --> 00:00:27,972
I'm talking about autonomous AI
agents, doing things like building

10
00:00:27,972 --> 00:00:32,036
websites, creating apps, and running
your entire site hustle while you

11
00:00:32,036 --> 00:00:33,890
are at cheer or football practice.

12
00:00:34,050 --> 00:00:38,495
This is not future fantasy and ladies and
gentlemen, this is happening right now and

13
00:00:38,495 --> 00:00:43,077
most entrepreneurs have no idea they're
about to miss the biggest make money

14
00:00:43,295 --> 00:00:46,104
with AI opportunity of their generation.

15
00:00:50,777 --> 00:00:51,159
What is up?

16
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:51,568
What is up?

17
00:00:51,568 --> 00:00:52,550
What the hell is up?

18
00:00:52,550 --> 00:00:53,777
My dark horse, friends and family.

19
00:00:53,968 --> 00:00:57,322
Welcome back to another episode of
the Dark Horse Entrepreneur AI Escape

20
00:00:57,322 --> 00:01:00,868
Plan, where we break free from the
grind, share some AI powered tips and

21
00:01:00,868 --> 00:01:05,368
side hustle strategies, and support my
amazing parents out there who are chasing

22
00:01:05,368 --> 00:01:07,359
freedom like modern day trailblazers.

23
00:01:07,359 --> 00:01:10,877
And if you happen to know someone that
dreams of ditching the grind or starting

24
00:01:10,877 --> 00:01:14,804
their own little side hustle, but they
still make time for bedtime stories.

25
00:01:15,031 --> 00:01:16,586
Go ahead and forward this episode to them.

26
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:20,295
Okay, so we're, we're gonna be talking
about the AI revolution as we do

27
00:01:20,295 --> 00:01:23,731
here all the time, but we're gonna be
talking about rewriting the rules of

28
00:01:23,731 --> 00:01:29,104
entrepreneurship and how one tool is
turning parents into digital money makers

29
00:01:29,104 --> 00:01:31,559
without ever having to learn any code.

30
00:01:31,586 --> 00:01:31,859
Okay?

31
00:01:31,968 --> 00:01:33,836
Here's the three things I want
you to come up with today.

32
00:01:34,304 --> 00:01:38,122
I'm gonna be revealing why
invitation codes to this AI tool.

33
00:01:38,122 --> 00:01:42,268
We're selling on the black
market for as much as $14,000.

34
00:01:42,322 --> 00:01:44,804
What that should tell you about
the opportunity that's sitting

35
00:01:44,804 --> 00:01:45,977
in front of you right now.

36
00:01:45,977 --> 00:01:49,986
Second, we're gonna discover the
seven specific use cases that are

37
00:01:49,986 --> 00:01:54,540
generating real passive income for solo
entrepreneurs who can barely even turn

38
00:01:54,540 --> 00:01:58,686
on their laptops, including a disposable
app strategy that I think is just.

39
00:01:58,763 --> 00:02:03,563
Pure genius that can recover
25 to 50 K installed revenue.

40
00:02:03,563 --> 00:02:07,545
And then third, I'm gonna show you exactly
how to position yourself ahead of the

41
00:02:07,545 --> 00:02:12,672
curve before this no-code AI technology
becomes so mainstream that the early

42
00:02:12,672 --> 00:02:15,045
adopter advantage completely disappears.

43
00:02:15,072 --> 00:02:18,072
Okay, so here's what, uh, here's what
I don't think anyone else is gonna

44
00:02:18,072 --> 00:02:19,763
tell you about the AI revolution.

45
00:02:19,981 --> 00:02:21,399
And I've mentioned this a couple of times.

46
00:02:21,563 --> 00:02:22,981
I really want you to hear me here.

47
00:02:23,145 --> 00:02:23,963
You are not.

48
00:02:24,436 --> 00:02:27,354
Late, you're still early,
but let's be honest.

49
00:02:27,604 --> 00:02:29,918
The window, the window's closing fast.

50
00:02:29,945 --> 00:02:33,109
Let me paint a picture for you that
might make your blood boil and maybe

51
00:02:33,109 --> 00:02:34,909
make your heart race just a little bit.

52
00:02:35,181 --> 00:02:37,281
Let's say it's, uh, it's Thursday evening.

53
00:02:37,527 --> 00:02:40,363
You are Jessica, you're a
36-year-old project manager.

54
00:02:40,363 --> 00:02:44,127
You're a mom or two or a dad or two,
and you just finished yet another

55
00:02:44,127 --> 00:02:49,090
soul crushing 10 hour day when your
phone buzzes and it says, sorry.

56
00:02:49,318 --> 00:02:52,263
We need you at tomorrow's
7:00 AM call mandatory.

57
00:02:52,290 --> 00:02:53,981
Do your heart sinks.

58
00:02:54,063 --> 00:02:56,409
Why tomorrow is your
son's school assembly?

59
00:02:56,654 --> 00:03:00,418
You know the one that he's practiced for
for the past week, maybe even for a month.

60
00:03:00,745 --> 00:03:04,454
The one that he has begged for you
to be there every single night.

61
00:03:04,509 --> 00:03:06,527
That night you tuck him in and he says.

62
00:03:07,095 --> 00:03:08,568
Mom, you're gonna be there, right?

63
00:03:08,622 --> 00:03:10,859
You smile and say, of course, sweetheart.

64
00:03:11,186 --> 00:03:11,786
You know I will.

65
00:03:12,059 --> 00:03:16,340
But inside your stomach twists up and
knots because you are not sure you're

66
00:03:16,340 --> 00:03:17,704
gonna be able to keep that promise.

67
00:03:17,759 --> 00:03:18,031
Yeah.

68
00:03:18,249 --> 00:03:18,877
Sound familiar?

69
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,195
Now, let's imagine this instead.

70
00:03:21,386 --> 00:03:24,822
It's the same Thursday evening, but
you're not checking your corporate emails.

71
00:03:25,390 --> 00:03:27,327
You're watching your AI agent instead.

72
00:03:27,327 --> 00:03:31,718
Yeah, your AI agent, and it's built
a complete client management system

73
00:03:31,718 --> 00:03:34,827
for the consulting business that
you launched three months ago.

74
00:03:35,345 --> 00:03:38,590
While you're there helping with homework,
it's over there creating landing

75
00:03:38,590 --> 00:03:40,254
pages while you are making dinner.

76
00:03:40,450 --> 00:03:44,295
It's processing client intake forms,
and while you are tucking those lovely

77
00:03:44,295 --> 00:03:48,468
little nuggets into bed that night,
reading bedtime stories, it's generating

78
00:03:48,468 --> 00:03:50,131
the next month's content calendar.

79
00:03:50,186 --> 00:03:52,859
By the time you kiss your kids
goodnight, you've made more

80
00:03:52,859 --> 00:03:54,604
money than your old job paid you.

81
00:03:54,631 --> 00:03:58,636
Maybe in a week and tomorrow you
will be front row at that assembly.

82
00:03:59,549 --> 00:04:04,131
Cheering your little nugget on
because you are on your own time.

83
00:04:04,404 --> 00:04:06,095
This my friends, is not fantasy.

84
00:04:06,095 --> 00:04:10,295
This is what's happening right now with
tools like Manus ai, the autonomous

85
00:04:10,377 --> 00:04:14,659
agent from Butterfly Effect that
achieves state of the art performance

86
00:04:14,740 --> 00:04:19,868
on the GA I A Benchmark and it runs,
I believe it's on a Claude 3.7 sonnet.

87
00:04:20,222 --> 00:04:22,486
And here's the crazy part, most people.

88
00:04:22,772 --> 00:04:24,954
Do not even know this tool exists.

89
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,836
Okay, let me break down exactly
how this workflow automation works

90
00:04:29,836 --> 00:04:33,436
because the details matter when you
are building your own escape plan.

91
00:04:33,736 --> 00:04:36,818
Let's talk about seven different
revenue streams here and dive

92
00:04:36,818 --> 00:04:37,799
into this a bit more Revenue.

93
00:04:37,827 --> 00:04:42,299
Revenue stream Number one could
be the 10 K website revolution.

94
00:04:42,522 --> 00:04:46,886
Remember back when building a website
meant finding a developer waiting for

95
00:04:46,886 --> 00:04:48,713
weeks and spending thousands of dollars?

96
00:04:48,849 --> 00:04:51,522
Well, my friend Stephanie
was in Mexico recently.

97
00:04:51,604 --> 00:04:54,931
She's a a non-technical person,
and she's always putting off,

98
00:04:54,931 --> 00:04:57,086
building her own registration page.

99
00:04:57,222 --> 00:05:02,131
That night after being shown Manis, she
went back to her room and built a complete

100
00:05:02,159 --> 00:05:04,804
website, including Stripe integration.

101
00:05:05,045 --> 00:05:08,509
Everything, all the bells and
whistles by herself in one evening.

102
00:05:08,672 --> 00:05:10,200
Here's your step by step.

103
00:05:10,418 --> 00:05:12,518
Go to Manus and create your account.

104
00:05:12,627 --> 00:05:16,227
Select build a website, and
then let's go to voice to text.

105
00:05:16,227 --> 00:05:19,118
Go ahead and hit that microphone icon
there and say something like, build

106
00:05:19,118 --> 00:05:21,954
me a website for your business in.

107
00:05:22,322 --> 00:05:22,977
Your city.

108
00:05:23,113 --> 00:05:24,340
I need a homepage.

109
00:05:24,559 --> 00:05:27,340
Services about page and a contact form.

110
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,650
Make it modern and make it clean
using, insert your preferred colors.

111
00:05:31,759 --> 00:05:36,722
Use this URL as a reference, and then give
it a competitor site, URL, and then let

112
00:05:36,722 --> 00:05:39,013
it go to work and watch it in real time.

113
00:05:39,150 --> 00:05:43,622
Open up browsers, write code,
build pages, add copy, and then

114
00:05:43,622 --> 00:05:45,477
you can give feedback again.

115
00:05:45,568 --> 00:05:47,749
Using voice, make it more minimalistic.

116
00:05:48,131 --> 00:05:49,659
Reduce the homepage text.

117
00:05:49,849 --> 00:05:52,004
Make the call to action button bigger.

118
00:05:52,168 --> 00:05:55,713
Don't forget to put the phone number
somewhere on the page so it's clickable

119
00:05:55,904 --> 00:05:57,513
and it will dial the phone number, right?

120
00:05:57,704 --> 00:06:00,622
And then connect your
domain and your live what?

121
00:06:00,622 --> 00:06:04,440
Used to take two to four weeks
and cost three to $10,000, now

122
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,477
takes 20 to 30 minutes with this
no code development approach.

123
00:06:08,559 --> 00:06:08,995
You feel me?

124
00:06:09,104 --> 00:06:11,368
Okay, let's do, uh,
revenue stream number two.

125
00:06:11,790 --> 00:06:13,590
Apps without developers.

126
00:06:13,618 --> 00:06:14,872
Yeah, this was kind of personal for me.

127
00:06:15,090 --> 00:06:16,645
Back in my, I dunno, what was it?

128
00:06:16,645 --> 00:06:17,327
Thirties.

129
00:06:17,354 --> 00:06:20,927
I had heard of an idea for a, uh,
property management software, I

130
00:06:20,927 --> 00:06:22,318
believe it was called Greenlight.

131
00:06:22,427 --> 00:06:27,745
They had spent months in nearly $4 million
before they even knew if anyone would

132
00:06:27,745 --> 00:06:32,736
pay delays, scope creep bugs that suck
the life out of everyone in the project.

133
00:06:32,927 --> 00:06:34,645
We're all involved in this now.

134
00:06:34,863 --> 00:06:38,436
You can build the same thing that
took them months in a time it

135
00:06:38,436 --> 00:06:40,427
takes to go out and eat lunch.

136
00:06:40,454 --> 00:06:42,172
Here's the process, okay?

137
00:06:42,227 --> 00:06:44,654
You're going to write
your app plan, right?

138
00:06:44,736 --> 00:06:47,272
What I mean, you, you wanna put a little
bit of data down there in front of

139
00:06:47,272 --> 00:06:49,072
yourself, uh, to, to get ready, right?

140
00:06:49,236 --> 00:06:51,800
You wanna answer, answer questions
like, who's the customer?

141
00:06:52,018 --> 00:06:55,222
What features do you wanna have,
and how do you want things to flow?

142
00:06:55,840 --> 00:06:58,786
Then go to Manus Select develop apps.

143
00:06:58,977 --> 00:07:02,740
Again, let's go to voice prompt
and say, build me a client intake

144
00:07:02,740 --> 00:07:04,786
app for my consulting business.

145
00:07:04,949 --> 00:07:08,140
Clients create accounts, fill
out an onboarding questionnaire.

146
00:07:08,359 --> 00:07:11,222
They upload documents and
they see project status.

147
00:07:11,222 --> 00:07:13,459
I want it to be clean and I
want it to be professional.

148
00:07:13,540 --> 00:07:16,759
And then you can include any
drawings and screenshots as a, uh, as

149
00:07:16,759 --> 00:07:18,368
attachments and give it some references.

150
00:07:18,586 --> 00:07:18,886
Test it.

151
00:07:19,281 --> 00:07:22,577
Give it feedback, iterate to
make it what it is you want.

152
00:07:22,822 --> 00:07:25,795
Get the deployment link and start
sharing it with your clients.

153
00:07:25,822 --> 00:07:26,068
Yeah.

154
00:07:26,286 --> 00:07:29,040
Now I know you can build disposable apps.

155
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,186
These are, these are tools that you
might use for as little as a week or

156
00:07:33,186 --> 00:07:37,086
a month for any specific project or
tasks that you have that you need to

157
00:07:37,086 --> 00:07:40,113
get stuff done, but you don't wanna
do all the rigorous grunt work and

158
00:07:40,113 --> 00:07:41,395
then you just kind of check 'em aside.

159
00:07:41,477 --> 00:07:42,090
It used to be.

160
00:07:42,559 --> 00:07:44,986
Unfeasible for this 'cause
it would take time and money.

161
00:07:45,150 --> 00:07:48,395
Now you could go into a, a
platform like Manus, create

162
00:07:48,477 --> 00:07:49,949
the tool that you need to use.

163
00:07:49,977 --> 00:07:51,395
Use it for the short time period.

164
00:07:51,395 --> 00:07:52,186
Do you need to use it?

165
00:07:52,186 --> 00:07:54,722
And then just check it into
the digital recycle bin.

166
00:07:54,722 --> 00:07:55,131
Why?

167
00:07:55,213 --> 00:07:58,349
Because it's worth the time and
the cost for the short term need.

168
00:07:58,349 --> 00:08:02,359
'cause you can create it so fast
and use it so easily that it

169
00:08:02,359 --> 00:08:04,077
saves you time as opposed to.

170
00:08:04,650 --> 00:08:05,222
Costs your time.

171
00:08:05,413 --> 00:08:10,922
These SAS style tools can generate you
some serious passive income if you find

172
00:08:11,086 --> 00:08:13,431
the opportunity to help others with them.

173
00:08:13,568 --> 00:08:16,240
Someone says, man, I wish
someone could do this for me.

174
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:17,931
You're like, I could create that for you.

175
00:08:18,286 --> 00:08:19,295
And they're like, really?

176
00:08:19,295 --> 00:08:19,459
You?

177
00:08:19,568 --> 00:08:20,304
You could do that?

178
00:08:20,304 --> 00:08:23,331
Yeah, just pay me 4 97 or whatever.

179
00:08:23,522 --> 00:08:24,668
You whip it together for 'em.

180
00:08:24,804 --> 00:08:27,177
Send them the link, let them
use it when they're done.

181
00:08:27,177 --> 00:08:27,886
Just chuck it.

182
00:08:28,136 --> 00:08:29,172
Whatever, you feel me?

183
00:08:29,227 --> 00:08:31,272
Okay, let's go to revenue
to stream number three.

184
00:08:31,272 --> 00:08:33,563
This is the content
machine that never sleeps.

185
00:08:33,590 --> 00:08:34,845
Content creation.

186
00:08:35,009 --> 00:08:35,254
I know.

187
00:08:35,254 --> 00:08:39,400
I think it used to mean staring at a blank
screen, brainstorming for hours being

188
00:08:39,427 --> 00:08:43,654
inconsistent, because let's be honest,
the process is a little exhausting, right?

189
00:08:43,654 --> 00:08:47,090
Or hiring someone to do it all for
you and paying through the nose, so.

190
00:08:47,309 --> 00:08:52,381
Now one prompt could get you 30
days of pre-validated engaging

191
00:08:52,381 --> 00:08:54,372
content and marketing material.

192
00:08:54,509 --> 00:08:55,218
Here's your system.

193
00:08:55,818 --> 00:08:58,627
Go into Manus and click wide research.

194
00:08:58,763 --> 00:09:00,781
And then as always, let's
go into voice prompt.

195
00:09:00,863 --> 00:09:04,763
Or you could type it in whatever
you wanna do and say, I run a,

196
00:09:05,118 --> 00:09:06,454
whatever your business type is.

197
00:09:06,563 --> 00:09:09,645
The target audience is, tell
her who the target audience is.

198
00:09:09,699 --> 00:09:12,727
I want you to research the top 20.

199
00:09:13,063 --> 00:09:15,981
Give it your niche creators
on Instagram and YouTube.

200
00:09:16,172 --> 00:09:20,481
Find posts that significantly
outperform their average.

201
00:09:20,563 --> 00:09:26,045
Use those patterns to build me a 30
day content calendar for Instagram and

202
00:09:26,045 --> 00:09:28,145
LinkedIn or whoever you you happen to use.

203
00:09:28,336 --> 00:09:33,600
Include post ideas, hooks, captions,
best posting times, and focus

204
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,968
on, and then give it the three
main topics you like to focus on.

205
00:09:37,463 --> 00:09:40,054
The key and hit enter and
watch the match begin.

206
00:09:40,218 --> 00:09:43,245
The key here is, and I want, I don't
want you to miss this, is you are

207
00:09:43,245 --> 00:09:48,127
telling it to find the outliers, the
content that performed exceptionally

208
00:09:48,127 --> 00:09:52,545
well, that outperformed their
average, and to use those patterns.

209
00:09:52,545 --> 00:09:56,013
You're not copying, you're
just being inspired by what

210
00:09:56,013 --> 00:09:57,540
worked really, really well.

211
00:09:57,713 --> 00:09:57,977
Okay.

212
00:09:58,504 --> 00:09:59,513
Let's go to number four.

213
00:09:59,704 --> 00:10:00,904
Competitive intelligence.

214
00:10:00,959 --> 00:10:03,550
So competitive that it
feels like cheating.

215
00:10:03,713 --> 00:10:03,931
Okay.

216
00:10:03,986 --> 00:10:08,022
Andy Grove, Intel's founder once
said, only the paranoid survive.

217
00:10:08,186 --> 00:10:11,486
Intel stayed on top because
they knew what competitors were

218
00:10:11,486 --> 00:10:15,004
doing, sometimes even before the
competitors knew what they were doing.

219
00:10:15,059 --> 00:10:17,322
So let's use your
competitive advantage here.

220
00:10:17,486 --> 00:10:20,813
Go into Manus and click wide research
and then give it a prompt like

221
00:10:20,895 --> 00:10:24,604
using my five main competitors and
give them the list of the five.

222
00:10:24,854 --> 00:10:29,163
Pull their pricing, positioning,
customer reviews, social media

223
00:10:29,163 --> 00:10:34,072
strategy, ad campaigns and website
structure, and then deliver a comparison

224
00:10:34,072 --> 00:10:40,209
spreadsheet and top five opportunities
where my business can differentiate.

225
00:10:40,345 --> 00:10:44,218
And then you can watch as it scrapes
websites and it gathers the reviews

226
00:10:44,218 --> 00:10:47,927
and it pulls the social media
content and scans the ad libraries.

227
00:10:47,981 --> 00:10:50,927
And then you get the
differentiation opportunities.

228
00:10:51,145 --> 00:10:52,999
In a nice, sleek presentation.

229
00:10:53,245 --> 00:10:57,309
What used to take researchers
10 to 24 hours of research.

230
00:10:57,500 --> 00:10:59,463
Now you're gonna get in like 30 minutes.

231
00:10:59,599 --> 00:10:59,954
Guess what?

232
00:11:00,090 --> 00:11:01,781
You could do this for other people.

233
00:11:01,972 --> 00:11:02,490
Hello?

234
00:11:02,599 --> 00:11:03,090
You feel me?

235
00:11:03,199 --> 00:11:03,527
Okay.

236
00:11:03,745 --> 00:11:04,563
Revenue stream number five.

237
00:11:05,377 --> 00:11:07,095
Hiring while you sleep.

238
00:11:07,286 --> 00:11:07,395
Yeah.

239
00:11:07,695 --> 00:11:11,813
Most people post jobs too late and
then they get flooded with desperate

240
00:11:11,813 --> 00:11:16,913
resumes and they spend 15 to 25 hours
processing all those applications

241
00:11:16,913 --> 00:11:21,959
that come swarming in while the best
candidates just seem to poof, disappear.

242
00:11:21,986 --> 00:11:24,686
Okay, so here's your hiring
system that you could do for

243
00:11:24,686 --> 00:11:26,240
yourself or for someone else.

244
00:11:26,459 --> 00:11:27,550
Jump into Manus again.

245
00:11:28,022 --> 00:11:32,331
Tell it to create a form for me to
fill out that gathers everything

246
00:11:32,331 --> 00:11:34,950
you need to find my ideal candidate.

247
00:11:35,222 --> 00:11:39,204
I want the role, the skills, the
experience, the location, the

248
00:11:39,204 --> 00:11:41,877
hours, deal breakers, nice to haves.

249
00:11:42,268 --> 00:11:46,577
Salary range and then fill out the
form and then let it scan LinkedIn

250
00:11:46,740 --> 00:11:49,795
indeed and rank candidates by fit.

251
00:11:49,850 --> 00:11:53,859
It will review the names and the LinkedIn
profiles and the experience and give

252
00:11:53,859 --> 00:11:58,195
you fit scores, and then you can have
it draft personalized outreach messages.

253
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,709
To each of your top picks you feeling,
yeah, you gotta think outside the box.

254
00:12:02,872 --> 00:12:07,045
Instead of waiting for applications,
you could be proactively recruiting the

255
00:12:07,045 --> 00:12:08,954
best people that are already out there.

256
00:12:09,172 --> 00:12:12,881
Maybe just thinking of looking for a
job that haven't quite sent that resume.

257
00:12:12,963 --> 00:12:17,109
45 minutes of work saves you,
I don't know, five to $10,000.

258
00:12:17,759 --> 00:12:18,795
Recruiting fees.

259
00:12:18,849 --> 00:12:20,268
Now, let's take that one step further.

260
00:12:20,322 --> 00:12:22,313
Let's say you get that
thing working so well.

261
00:12:22,340 --> 00:12:26,050
You decide I'm gonna turn this into an
app, and then you go out there to other

262
00:12:26,050 --> 00:12:30,931
folks and say, Hey, you wanna pay 97
bucks a month or 1 97 a month for access?

263
00:12:31,068 --> 00:12:32,050
Again, they're.

264
00:12:32,259 --> 00:12:36,431
Recruiters out there charging thousands
to find qualified candidates, and you

265
00:12:36,431 --> 00:12:37,931
just made it easy for them anyway.

266
00:12:38,286 --> 00:12:39,786
That one could go any number of places.

267
00:12:39,786 --> 00:12:43,795
Let's go to revenue stream number
six, lead generation on autopilot.

268
00:12:43,822 --> 00:12:47,559
I can remember, was it early
in the flow town days or teams?

269
00:12:47,731 --> 00:12:51,031
With multiple monitors that were
out there scraping LinkedIn and

270
00:12:51,031 --> 00:12:54,331
looking at the directories, copying
information into spreadsheets.

271
00:12:54,577 --> 00:12:58,504
Yeah, sold crushing work 40 hours
a week for maybe, I don't know,

272
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,495
a hundred, 110 decent leads.

273
00:13:00,522 --> 00:13:04,995
So let's create your lead machine going
to Manus and do wide research and tell

274
00:13:04,995 --> 00:13:08,213
it to find me 200 your target businesses.

275
00:13:08,245 --> 00:13:11,736
Doing one to $10 million of
revenue in the US or whatever

276
00:13:11,736 --> 00:13:15,581
country you prefer for each, find
me the CEO or marketing director.

277
00:13:15,881 --> 00:13:19,481
I need the name, the email, the
LinkedIn profile, the company website.

278
00:13:19,536 --> 00:13:22,400
Save it in the spreadsheet
format, connect gmail connector.

279
00:13:22,590 --> 00:13:26,981
Then do the second prompt draft
personalized three sentence emails to

280
00:13:27,063 --> 00:13:31,704
each lead referencing something specific
from their LinkedIn or their website.

281
00:13:32,195 --> 00:13:35,577
Send the first batches of test,
test the response rates, and then

282
00:13:35,577 --> 00:13:37,895
refine the process over time.

283
00:13:37,977 --> 00:13:41,086
What used to take, uh, 36 to 40 hours.

284
00:13:41,140 --> 00:13:44,686
Now it takes you one to two hours
with proper API integration.

285
00:13:44,877 --> 00:13:47,986
Okay, so let's go to number seven here.

286
00:13:48,068 --> 00:13:50,004
Reviving dead deals.

287
00:13:50,004 --> 00:13:52,213
We're gonna dive into some areas
that some folks don't think about.

288
00:13:52,431 --> 00:13:56,768
Every business loses about, I
don't know, 30 to 50% of its deals.

289
00:13:57,231 --> 00:14:01,895
To leaves that just kind of go dark,
kind of disappear into the nothingness,

290
00:14:02,113 --> 00:14:06,613
not because they're not interested, but
because they're bored of just checking

291
00:14:06,613 --> 00:14:08,359
their damn messages all the time.

292
00:14:08,604 --> 00:14:08,986
Okay?

293
00:14:08,986 --> 00:14:10,213
And so here's what you're gonna do.

294
00:14:10,213 --> 00:14:13,649
You're gonna go create your, let's
call this your revival system.

295
00:14:13,704 --> 00:14:17,522
Give Manus access to your CRM or
download it into a spreadsheet,

296
00:14:17,713 --> 00:14:19,268
and then use a prompt like this.

297
00:14:19,486 --> 00:14:25,131
Find all the open deals with no reply
or activity in the last 30 days.

298
00:14:25,213 --> 00:14:28,050
You change that number
as you see fit for each.

299
00:14:28,568 --> 00:14:30,068
Analyze the last touchpoint.

300
00:14:30,149 --> 00:14:31,704
Figure out why that went cold.

301
00:14:31,813 --> 00:14:36,613
Draft a personalized re-engagement email
reference to previous conversations.

302
00:14:36,749 --> 00:14:42,449
Find an article that adds value, solving
a pain that they mentioned, and do so in a

303
00:14:42,449 --> 00:14:45,231
friendly founder tone and don't be salesy.

304
00:14:45,945 --> 00:14:46,518
Hit enter.

305
00:14:46,709 --> 00:14:50,418
Review the emails it spits out, tweak
them a little bit to so they sound

306
00:14:50,418 --> 00:14:55,299
like you set a recurring monthly
calendar block for revived dead leads

307
00:14:55,463 --> 00:15:03,072
and watch as you recover 25 to $50,000
in stall revenue or ghosted revenue.

308
00:15:03,154 --> 00:15:04,731
Now again, what if you could do this?

309
00:15:05,236 --> 00:15:06,027
For other folks.

310
00:15:06,163 --> 00:15:06,354
Huh?

311
00:15:06,572 --> 00:15:06,927
You feel?

312
00:15:06,927 --> 00:15:07,309
Yeah.

313
00:15:07,390 --> 00:15:09,545
See, look, I've been in this
game long enough to know the

314
00:15:09,545 --> 00:15:11,999
difference between hype and reality.

315
00:15:12,163 --> 00:15:13,418
And, and this isn't hype.

316
00:15:13,418 --> 00:15:16,881
This is just, uh, probably one of
the biggest shifts in how business

317
00:15:16,881 --> 00:15:19,581
gets done since the internet itself.

318
00:15:19,581 --> 00:15:23,890
I mean, AI in general, but certainly,
uh, products and tools like Manus.

319
00:15:24,068 --> 00:15:25,663
But here's what I need you to understand.

320
00:15:26,236 --> 00:15:31,990
The gap between people using AI and people
still thinking about it is getting bigger.

321
00:15:32,140 --> 00:15:36,422
Every day while you are debating whether
this is real, other folks are out there

322
00:15:36,477 --> 00:15:38,222
already building their escape plans.

323
00:15:38,222 --> 00:15:40,459
That's why I created the
AI Escape Plan Newsletter.

324
00:15:40,704 --> 00:15:43,568
It is your roadmap to more
money, more freedom, and more of

325
00:15:43,650 --> 00:15:45,477
what truly matters your family.

326
00:15:45,777 --> 00:15:50,004
Each week I deliver practical AI powered
strategies on how to start and grow

327
00:15:50,004 --> 00:15:52,377
and streamline your AI side hustle.

328
00:15:52,377 --> 00:15:56,140
All designed to protect your family
time while still boosting your income.

329
00:15:56,195 --> 00:15:57,231
Do not let another week.

330
00:15:57,572 --> 00:16:00,545
Pass by with you left, wondering what if.

331
00:16:00,545 --> 00:16:05,863
Sign up now@darkhorseinsider.com and
start building your freedom today.

332
00:16:05,863 --> 00:16:05,918
So.

333
00:16:06,749 --> 00:16:11,768
Here's the bigger picture, uh, of what
most people I think are still missing.

334
00:16:11,986 --> 00:16:17,304
We're witnessing the democratization
of technology creation

335
00:16:17,522 --> 00:16:18,422
that's sink in for a second.

336
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:23,386
For the first time in history, the tools
to build sophisticated digital products

337
00:16:23,577 --> 00:16:28,731
are available to you and me, anyone with
an idea and with an internet connection.

338
00:16:28,922 --> 00:16:31,350
So this really isn't about AI tools.

339
00:16:31,854 --> 00:16:35,263
It's about that fundamental shift
from I need to hire someone to build

340
00:16:35,263 --> 00:16:37,445
this to, I can build this myself.

341
00:16:37,636 --> 00:16:41,481
We're moving from a world where technical
skills used to be the barrier to entry,

342
00:16:41,645 --> 00:16:44,509
and you had to find someone who had
them, or you had to teach yourself.

343
00:16:44,781 --> 00:16:48,927
We're moving into a world where
imagination and execution.

344
00:16:49,136 --> 00:16:50,500
Are becoming our only limits.

345
00:16:50,663 --> 00:16:55,245
So people who understand this shift, who
embrace it now, while everyone else is

346
00:16:55,245 --> 00:16:59,663
still hesitating, they're the ones who
are gonna own the next decade, maybe the

347
00:16:59,663 --> 00:17:03,918
next two decades, because they're building
businesses that can run themselves.

348
00:17:04,109 --> 00:17:08,336
They're creating income streams that work
around their family schedule, and they're

349
00:17:08,336 --> 00:17:12,318
proving that you don't have to choose
between being present for your kids.

350
00:17:12,513 --> 00:17:13,850
And building something meaningful.

351
00:17:13,904 --> 00:17:15,677
This is bigger than side hustles.

352
00:17:15,786 --> 00:17:19,959
This is about redefining what's
possible for the hardworking parents

353
00:17:19,959 --> 00:17:22,031
that are out there in the 21st century.

354
00:17:22,222 --> 00:17:27,104
The future belongs to the parents
who stop asking, can I do this?

355
00:17:27,104 --> 00:17:27,677
You can.

356
00:17:27,950 --> 00:17:31,359
You need to start asking, what
am I going to build first?

357
00:17:31,550 --> 00:17:32,231
And then just.

358
00:17:32,504 --> 00:17:32,886
Build it.

359
00:17:32,886 --> 00:17:36,295
So here, all that said, here's
your Whiskered wisdom for today.

360
00:17:36,350 --> 00:17:41,286
Before you go to bed tonight, go to
manus.im and create your account.

361
00:17:41,559 --> 00:17:42,540
Don't overthink it.

362
00:17:42,704 --> 00:17:44,668
Don't plan for the perfect project.

363
00:17:44,722 --> 00:17:46,031
Just dive in there.

364
00:17:46,486 --> 00:17:47,222
Build something.

365
00:17:47,222 --> 00:17:49,540
Build something small,
build something stupid.

366
00:17:49,540 --> 00:17:50,222
Who cares?

367
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,950
Maybe it's a simple landing
page for an idea you have.

368
00:17:53,168 --> 00:17:58,240
Maybe it's a basic app that solves some
stupid problem in your daily life or in

369
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,149
the job that you're currently going to.

370
00:18:00,422 --> 00:18:02,113
The goal here is not perfection.

371
00:18:02,195 --> 00:18:03,395
The goal is proof.

372
00:18:03,559 --> 00:18:08,086
Proof to yourself that you can
create, that you can build, and

373
00:18:08,086 --> 00:18:09,918
that you have the power to change.

374
00:18:10,659 --> 00:18:15,240
Circumstances because once you see
what you are capable of with these

375
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:19,795
tools, everything changes, your
confidence shifts, your possibilities

376
00:18:19,959 --> 00:18:23,940
expand, and your escape plan,
yeah, it starts to become real.

377
00:18:24,131 --> 00:18:27,763
The $2 billion acquisition of
Manus isn't just a business story.

378
00:18:28,322 --> 00:18:29,740
It's a business signal.

379
00:18:29,986 --> 00:18:34,131
It's the market telling you that
autonomous AI agents are in fact the

380
00:18:34,131 --> 00:18:36,231
future of how work is going to get done.

381
00:18:36,477 --> 00:18:40,731
You can wait for the future to arrive, or
you can start building it yourself Today.

382
00:18:41,004 --> 00:18:44,904
You can keep trading hours for dollars
for someone else's dream, or you can

383
00:18:44,931 --> 00:18:46,949
use those tools to build your own.

384
00:18:47,222 --> 00:18:50,822
The choice is yours, but remember,
every day you wait is a day

385
00:18:50,822 --> 00:18:52,540
someone else gets ahead of you.

386
00:18:52,922 --> 00:18:57,095
With that, I'm gonna leave you as I always
do, think successfully and take action.
