Many businesses today rely upon technology to survive, but they have no budget for a technology leader on their leadership team. This role tends to get handed to the leader who "knows the most" about technology.

I've served as a CTO on demand (or Virtual CTO) for companies of all sizes.

Some of the benefits of having a Virtual CTO for your company are:

‣ Access to an extremely knowledgeable technology consultant to answer your questions and give you guidance.
‣ Renewed focuses on the small details of your technology platform.
‣ Representation by a consultant who "speaks the language" of your tech team.

Technology Consultant | CTO on Demand

With many businesses lacking the time or resources to have an in-house team, I use my 30+ years of experience to identify, vet, and hire any technology team members my clients need.

Using my proven process that results in successful project completion, I take over management of all technology projects, including all project team meetings. This can be your internal team or a team I bring to the table.

Let me help you hire and manage a team of technology professionals.

Like Tony Camarata of Immedia Creative has said:

"In our line of work, it's common for issues to arise during the course of a project, but Mike is excellent about identifying and communicating them to me well in advance, allowing us to avoid scope creep while staying ahead of our deadlines."

Here is what it looks like for me to hire and manage your technology team:

‣ I take over all interviewing and testing of potential candidates.
‣ I find the top 10% of technologists in the pool of people interested in your type of project.
‣ Project plan generation.
‣ Regular status meetings to drive projects forward.
‣ Weekly status updates for you and your management team.
‣ Handling of all roadblocks and getting them removed.

Through the use of a unique approach, I help authors, speakers, entrepreneurs, and businesses create and launch podcasts.

Thought Leader

Restaurants on the Run

As the Director of Technology Solutions, my technology strategy caused revenue to grow from $4 million annually to $40 million annually with a 7x growth in profit.

My approach turned technology into an accelerator for both revenue and profit. This approach led to ROTR being purchased by GrubHub for $85 million.

As a member of their Executive Team, I made decisions on the following issues:

- Acquisitions of other delivery services
- Business growth strategy
- Strategic planning
- Team management processes
- Training programs
- Software architecture
- Software development
- Marketing strategy

Putting the customer first has always been my motto and it was no different with this position.

Director of Technology Solutions

Join us to learn all of the juicy secrets of tech leaders - their biggest successes (and failures) - on our quest for gaining that all-important technology edge.

What separates good tech leaders from great ones? The ability to stay ahead of the curve — not just keeping pace, but setting the pace.

That’s why I created Gaining the Technology Leadership Edge — a podcast for tech executives, founders, and change-makers ready to lead with clarity in a world where AI disruption, digital transformation, and shifting markets collide.

Each week, I sit down with experienced leaders who’ve been in the trenches — sharing real wins, costly failures, and hard-earned lessons you can apply immediately. No fluff. No buzzwords. Just strategies for building resilient, high-performing teams.

I know what it’s like to carry that weight. As CTO of the largest restaurant delivery service in the U.S. at the time, I was working 105-hour weeks — successful on paper but burning out, missing family moments, and watching my marriage slip away.

That breaking point forced me to rethink everything. I rebuilt my leadership approach, empowered my team, and the results were undeniable — zero turnover for over two years, no missed deadlines, and a 40-hour workweek that gave me my life back.

That journey became The Decentralized A-Team Method — a framework I now teach and the foundation of my book, The Decentralized A-Team Handbook: Leadership Strategies.

Whether you’re scaling a SaaS startup, leading a tech team, or driving enterprise innovation, the podcast is your playbook to sharpen your edge, gain real-world insights, and connect with a growing community of tech leaders who’ve been where you are.

2x Founder | Building AI systems behind fast-growing agencies, eCom & SaaS brands. Automate 80% of backend work.

If you want a business that can work without you, you're in the right place.

Keep reading if:

► You feel stuck.
► Your brand/agency is at full capacity.
► You want to grow the business, but you don't know how.
► You work with high-ticket clients, but processes are manual.
► Your staff makes mistakes and misses deadlines all the time.
► You do great work, but your client relationship deteriorates over time.
► You feel like the whole business is completely reliant on you to do everything.

I can help you.

A few years ago, I was just like you, experiencing the stress of running a business.

The good news is, I got through those tough days and now automate a tutoring agency that's turning over seven figures (and growing).

But before I tell you how dashboards and automation can fix all your problems, here's who I am and why you should care.

I'm Dashboard Lim, and in 2022, I scaled my business to seven figures. Today, I run a dashboard & automation agency to help other businesses scale, just as I did.

The same strategy I used to scale my business can work for you now: AUTOMATE , VISUALISE and SCLAE

Here are three reasons why it can help you:

1) Automation can do tasks in 1 minute that would take a human hours.

Imagine all those backend tasks your staff struggles with, now fully automated.

Once you activate automation, it works 24/7 and performs perfectly every time.

2) You can have a fully automated system live in less than 2 weeks.

Simply map out tasks and start building. You'll see the benefits instantly. No more spending hours per day getting updates from staff manually.

Imagine having a dashboard on your phone that gives you full visibility across all projects, without constantly checking in on staff.

3) Dashboards & AI Automation are the best investments you can make.

Let's say you can handle 30 clients a year, and your client LTV is $20,000. If you currently have ZERO systems in place, investing in some simple automations could increase your capacity by 10-30% in the next 2 weeks. That means you could take on an extra $60,000 to $180,000 worth of clients as a result.

Sounds great, right?

So, let me be your Chief Technology Officer!

I will:

► Create a business capability map that outlines everything you do every day.
► Identify which processes should be automated, and which ones shouldn't, to ensure you can spend as much time as possible with clients.
► Build the automated system for you in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible.
► Monitor the system 24/7 and fix bugs without you having to ask.

I’m opening my private AI Automation Skool community (100% FREE)

(Yes, the same stuff “AI gurus” charge $500/month for.)

And honestly… I shouldn’t be doing this.

Most people are stuck learning AI the slow, lonely, confusing way:

→ Buying overpriced courses
→ Hoarding YouTube tutorials
→ Watching fake “automation gurus” flex screenshots
→ Still having zero real systems running

Meanwhile the people winning?
They’re inside communities with actual guidance, actual builds, and actual implementation.

So screw it.

I’m giving away FREE early access to my Skool community, where I’m teaching everything the internet gatekeeps:

→ Premium AI automation lessons
→ Full workflow breakdowns
→ n8n + Make builds
→ Agent setups
→ Video guides
→ Behind-the-scenes systems
→ Weekly deep dives
→ Private Q&A

❌ No paywall.
❌ No subscription.
❌ No “$497/mo mastermind.”
🟢 Just real education for people serious about winning in AI.

But here’s the catch:

☑ I’m only letting in quality people.
☑ If you’re not actually building, you won’t get inside.

Early access requirement?

Just subscribe to my YouTube channel. That’s it.

I just built a $500 handbook teaching founders how to launch SaaS in HOURS.

❌ Not months.
❌ Not weeks.
✅ Hours.

And I'm giving it away.

Most founders don’t fail because of bad ideas.
They fail because they’re trapped in slow systems:

→ Waiting on developers
→ Planning instead of shipping
→ Copy/pasting data into spreadsheets
→ Running the business blind
→ Drowning in “manual work hell”

Meanwhile…

People using Gemini 3.0 + Lovable are launching SaaS products before lunch
and automating 20–40 hrs of operations overnight.

So I built the handbook I wish someone handed me years ago.

Here’s what’s inside:

→ The exact 7-phase system founders use to go from idea to live SaaS in hours
→ 50+ copy/paste prompts (PRDs, UX flows, edge cases, DB schemas, logic maps, analytics layers)
→ How to build dashboards that run your business like an 8-figure operator
→ A 2-day, 7-day, and 30-day execution plan
→ AI agent templates for onboarding, troubleshooting, automating workflows
→ Systems I use to help founders & ecommerce brands scale without chaos

✅ This isn’t “tips.”
✅ This is a plug-and-play architecture 
✅ For building software + systems at a pace your competitors cannot match.

If you’re a founder, ecommerce owner, or growing business and you want clarity, automation, and speed, this handbook will change the way you operate.

You're wasting 10+ hours every week on something that takes 10 minutes to automate.

Every morning:

→ Log Shopify, pull sales data
→ Jump to Meta, check ad spend
→ Back to spreadsheet, calculate profit
→ Still unsure if you're actually profitable

2 hours gone.
I built the CEO Dashboard to end this.

Every morning, you wake up to:
✅ Exact revenue yesterday
✅ Exact profit yesterday
✅ ROAS, CPA, AOV, margins
✅ Complete financial clarity

Zero manual work.
Now here's what's interesting.

Once they had the real numbers, they all asked the same question:

→ How do I improve these numbers?
→ That's when they realized: the problem isn't tracking.
→ The problem is scaling.

And that's exactly what my CEO Dashboard solves.
Get the CEO Dashboard:

→ Full n8n workflow (no code)
→ Setup video walkthrough
→ 50+ automation templates
→ Direct community access (1,000+ builders)

Setup: 10 minutes.
Result: True profit visibility forever.

But then?

✅ You see what else is possible.
✅ You see how builders are automating entire businesses.
✅ You see the systems that actually scale.

Most founders will pass.
They'll keep guessing on profit.

But you?

You'll know your numbers.
And you'll see exactly what to fix.

📌 PS: Repost to save a founder $6,000/year.

The reason your n8n workflows keep breaking has nothing to do with nodes.

It has everything to do with how you think.

Most builders don’t fail because they lack skill.
They fail because they design workflows like domino chains instead of system architectures.

And here’s the uncomfortable truth:

Your workflow doesn’t collapse at the point of failure.
It collapses at the point of assumption.

Let me show you:

1) You assume the input will always be clean.

It won’t.
And that one naive assumption destroys 14 nodes downstream.

2) You assume external APIs behave.

They don’t.
Timeouts aren’t bugs. They’re physics.
Architects plan for physics.

3) You assume logic should be clever.

Clever breaks.
Clear scales.

4) You assume actions are harmless.

They’re not.
One duplicate write can ruin a CRM, a pipeline, a week, a reputation.

5) You assume errors announce themselves.

They never do.
Silent failure is the tax you pay for skipping architecture.

The breakthrough?

Stop designing what your workflow should do.
Start designing what it should survive.

Because the real job of automation isn’t execution.
It’s resilience.

Your workflow shouldn’t run when things go right.
It should still run when everything goes wrong.

That’s the shift from builder → architect.
And once you make it, nothing you build will ever feel fragile again.

GOOGLE JUST LEAKED THE PROMPTING FORMULA THAT MAKES GEMINI 3.0 (2.1x SMARTER)

And 99% of people have NO IDEA it exists.

Most people using Gemini 3.0 are getting mediocre outputs.
Not because the model is weak.
Because they're prompting it like it's ChatGPT.

HERE'S WHAT CHANGED:

❌ OLD WAY:
"Write me a blog post about AI"
Result: Generic, forgettable, low-value

✅ NEW WAY:
[Structured prompt + context layers + reasoning depth]
Result: Expert-level, specific, actually useful

The difference? Following the prompting formula Google just leaked.

I spent 6 hours reverse-engineering Google's leaked documentation.

Tested it on 50+ different tasks.
The results were SHOCKING.

THE 5-LAYER GEMINI 3.0 PROMPTING STACK:

1️⃣ ROLE DEFINITION

Use: "You are [specific expert]. Your expertise includes [exact skills]. You've solved [specific problem] for [specific audience]."

2️⃣ CONTEXT STACKING

Use: [Background] + [Current situation] + [Desired outcome] + [Constraints]

Example:
"BACKGROUND: I'm building a SaaS for agencies
CURRENT: We have 47 clients, 8 manual workflows
GOAL: Automate 80% of our operations
CONSTRAINT: No engineering team, budget $5K/month"

3️⃣ OUTPUT STRUCTURE

Use: "Structure response as:
- [Part A]: [Specific format]
- [Part B]: [Specific format]
- [Part C]: [Specific format]"

4️⃣ REASONING DEPTH

Use: "Break this into 3 steps:
1) Think through [aspect]
2) Consider [counter-argument]
3) Synthesize into [specific output]"

5️⃣ VERIFICATION LAYER

Use: "After generating, verify:
✓ [Quality check 1]
✓ [Quality check 2]
✓ [Quality check 3]

If any fail, regenerate.
I tested this on different use cases:

→ Content creation: 2.3x better hooks
→ Code generation: 1.8x fewer bugs
→ Strategy development: 2.1x more actionable insights
→ Research synthesis: 3.2x better summaries
→ Email writing: 2.7x higher response rates

THE PROMPT TEMPLATE (Copy-paste ready):

Role: You are [specific expert]

Context:
- Background: [what led to this]
- Current situation: [where things stand now]
- Goal: [what success looks like]
- Constraints: [budget, time, resources]

Task: [specific thing I need]

Output format: [Structure here]

Quality criteria:
✓ [Criterion 1]
✓ [Criterion 2]
✓ [Criterion 3]

Verification: Check if output meets criteria. If not, regenerate.

WHY THIS MATTERS:

→ Gemini 3.0 just hit 1501 Elo (highest ever recorded).
→ But most people treat it like ChatGPT 3.5
→ They're leaving 50% of the model's power on the table.

Your competitors who know this framework?
✅ They're getting 2x better outputs.
✅ With zero extra cost.
✅ Using the same API.

That's an unfair advantage.

Prompt like a pro in Google Workspace with Gemini

BREAKING: Sam Altman just declared a Code Red inside OpenAI.

And for the first time since 2022… it actually means something.

Because Gemini 3 isn’t “competitive.”
It’s existential.

I’ve watched this race for 3 years.
I thought the winner was already crowned.
I was wrong.

THE MOMENT THE MONOPOLY CRACKED

Nov 2022: OpenAI shocks the world.
Google is half-asleep.

Dec 2023: Gemini launches.
Misses expectations.
Everyone laughs.

But while we were laughing…
Google was training a monster.

2025 REALITY HITS LIKE A TRUCK

→ Gemini crosses 650M monthly users
→ ChatGPT daily actives drop 6% in two weeks
→ Gemini 3 crushes every major benchmark
→ Ships directly into Google Search on day one
→ Developers quietly migrate — cost + context = unfair advantage

Suddenly that $500B valuation isn’t a flex.
It’s a liability.

Because OpenAI is running into walls no one expected:

→ They need double-digit billions per year just to stay in the arms race.
→ They’re preparing another $100B raise.

And they’re losing the one thing you cannot buy:
The brains.

Researchers are flooding out the door.
Heading to Mira Murati’s Thinking Machines.
Heading to Meta’s Superintelligence Labs.
Heading anywhere with freedom, compute… and fewer guardrails.

The “talent moat” everyone bragged about?
Gone.

Two years ago, OpenAI felt inevitable.
Today, it feels… shaken.

Google has distribution no one can match.
Meta is shipping breakthroughs weekly.
Startups are poaching legends.
And the ground is moving under Silicon Valley’s feet.

✅ We aren’t watching a company battle.
✅ We’re watching a multi-polar AGI war ignite in real time.
✅ What a time to be alive.

Whose side are you on?

“GEMINI” or “GPT”?

♻️ Repost if you feel the power shift happening.

Your aging report is costing you $50K+ per year. 

Every week, you download from Xero, clean the CSV, and fix broken columns.

Just to see who hasn't paid you.
That's 3+ hours wasted.
Every single week.

And the worst part?

By the time you finish cleaning the data, it's already outdated.
You're making payment decisions based on yesterday's numbers.

Here's what I built:

A fully automated Xero Aging Report system inside n8n.

It runs every morning.
While you sleep.
No downloads. No manual work. Just clean, real-time data in Google Sheets.

Here's what it does:

1️⃣ Connects directly to Xero
2️⃣ Pulls every unpaid invoice automatically
3️⃣ Cleans all the messy data (converts dates, flattens JSON, calculates totals)
4️⃣ Updates Google Sheets with fresh data every single day
5️⃣ Never touches the data again

What you actually see:

A CFO dashboard that shows:

✅ Total receivables at a glance
✅ How much is current
✅ How much is overdue
✅ Who owes you money
✅ How long invoices have been overdue
✅ Where to chase payments first

BEFORE:
→ 3+ hours every week on manual exports
→ Broken CSV files
→ Data is always outdated by the time you see it
→ You're chasing payments based on yesterday's numbers
→ Team keeps asking "can someone pull the aging report?"

AFTER:
→ 0 hours on manual work (it's fully automated)
→ Clean, organized data every morning
→ Real time visibility of what's due, paid, or overdue
→ Make payment decisions based on today's numbers
→ One dashboard everyone uses

Same business. 
Just automation.

Who needs this:
If you're running a business and you:

→ Spend hours manually pulling aging reports
→ Never know real-time who owes you money
→ Make decisions based on outdated data
→ Want to stop wasting time on manual exports
→ Need to track receivables without chaos

This system is for you.

🔔 Follow me for automation that actually works.

I share systems that save 40+ hours per month.
I don't share theory. I share workflows you can deploy today.

I analyzed 130+ agencies to find why some scaled 10X faster than others.

There was ONE operational difference.
Nothing else mattered.

THE DIFFERENCE:

Agencies that scaled:
→ Automated decision-making
→ Built real-time monitoring
→ Structured response workflows

Agencies that didn't:
→ Made decisions manually
→ Checked data weekly
→ Reacted slowly to changes

The faster ones weren't smarter.
They had a system.

HOW IT WORKS:

Step 1: Automated Decision-Making
They built AI to handle routine decisions.
No meetings. No bottlenecks. Just outputs.

Step 2: Real-Time Monitoring
System tracks competitors, trends, metrics.
Alerts them when things change.
Not daily reports. Real-time.

Step 3: Automatic Response Structure
When alerts trigger, there's already a playbook.
No scrambling. No thinking.
Just execute the response.

Result: They're 6 weeks ahead in planning.

WHAT THIS MEANS:

Agencies using this system:
- See competitive moves 4 days earlier than you
- Have responses ready before you notice the change
- Save $89K+ monthly because they're not reacting
- Scale from $50K to $250K revenue faster

You're working harder.
They built better systems.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN DECEMBER 4:

I'm showing the exact framework:

→ The specific tools they use (no theory)
→ How they connect them (real setup)
→ How to implement it (step-by-step)
→ How to scale it (real examples)

130+ agencies already have this running.
This is how they did it.

SPECIFICS YOU'LL GET ON DECEMBER 4:

→ Exact tools (Make, n8n, or both)
→ How each integrates
→ Real workflows (not theory)
→ How competitors use it
→ How to scale it
→ Cost breakdown
→ Time to implement
→ First-month results you can expect

Video walkthrough of a live setup.
Real screens. 
Real data.
Not a presentation.
Just the system.

WHO THIS IS FOR:

→ This works if you're running an agency making $50K-$500K monthly.
→ It works regardless of niche.
→ It's not for solopreneurs (not enough complexity yet).
→ It's not for enterprise (different layer entirely).
→ It's for the middle: Agencies scaling from chaos to systems.

✅ DECEMBER 4. 
✅ 1PM CET. 
✅ 100 SPOTS.

This is the only time it's shown publicly LIVE.

🟢 Cost: Shows in the webinar
🟢 Who it's for: Agencies $50K-$500K monthly revenue

BREAKING: Google just made image generation INSANELY better.

And most people don't realize it yet.

→ Google released Nano Banana Pro.
→ It's their latest image model integrated directly into Gemini.
→ One update changed everything.

I tested it for 2 hours this morning.
The results were wild.

Nano Banana Pro can now:

→ Generate clearer text within images (not broken AI text anymore)
→ Seamlessly transfer image styles (like a pro designer did it)
→ Combine multiple images at a time (no more one-by-one)
→ Turn ideas into professional-quality visuals (actually usable, not trash)

This isn't incremental.
This is a complete leap.

WHAT THIS MEANS:

Your competitors are still using:
→ Midjourney ($10-20/month)
→ DALL-E 3 ($15-30/month)
→ Stable Diffusion ($5-50/month)

You can now do ALL of that inside Gemini.
For free.

With better results.

THE PROBLEM THEY SOLVED:

Old AI image generators couldn't:
❌ Write readable text in images
❌ Match styles consistently
❌ Handle multiple images at once
❌ Produce professional-quality output

Nano Banana Pro FIXED ALL OF IT.

HOW TO USE IT RIGHT NOW:

Step 1: Open Gemini
Step 2: Click "Model Picker" (top left)
Step 3: Select "Thinking" mode
Step 4: Type what you want to visualize
Step 5: Choose "Generate image"

Examples that work:

→ "Generate a professional LinkedIn post header with clear text"
→ "Transfer the style of Van Gogh to this modern photo"
→ "Combine these 3 product photos into one mockup"
→ "Turn this product idea into a photorealistic mockup"

All in seconds.
All production ready.

WHO BENEFITS MOST:

→ Content creators (generate post graphics instantly)
→ E-commerce sellers (product mockups in minutes)
→ Agencies (cut design costs by 60%)
→ Marketers (social media visuals on demand)
→ Designers (AI handles drafts, you refine them)
→ Entrepreneurs (turn ideas into visuals instantly)

TRY IT RIGHT NOW:

1. Open Gemini
2. Pick "Thinking" model
3. Ask: "Generate a professional product mockup of [your idea]"
4. Watch it happen in 20 seconds

You'll see what I mean.

📌 Do you need a MEGA prompt to use Nano Banana Pro effectively? 
👇 Comment below: What would you create with Nano Banana Pro first?

I analysed 130+ agencies + DTC operators. 

Only ONE operational difference separated the ones printing money from the ones bleeding cash.

The top players, the ones scaling $50K → $250K → $500K/mo:

→ Automated decision-making  
→ Built ALWAYS-ON monitoring  
→ Installed response workflows that activate BEFORE humans even see the problem  

The rest?

→ Manually refreshing dashboards  
→ Waiting for weekly reports  
→ Reacting to fires instead of preventing them  

If your store depends on human reaction time, you’re already behind.  
And December will expose it brutally.

THE PART NOBODY TELLS YOU:

The brands scaling fastest right now:

→ See CPM shifts 4 days earlier
→ Spot product fatigue before ROAS collapses
→ Adjust offers in real-time
→ Save $89K+ monthly by not reacting late
→ Out-operate competitors without hiring more people

You’re not losing because of weaker ads.  
You’re losing because they built systems.  
You built workload.

DEC 04 (LAST CHANCE TO GET IN)
I’m showing the full framework LIVE:

→ Exact tools (Make, n8n, internal setups)  
→ Real workflows (not theory, actual screens)  
→ How top ecom operators automate decisions

→ First-month results you can expect  
→ Cost breakdown + implementation map  

This will NOT be shown publicly again.

→ Ecom store scaling $50K–$500K/mo  
→ You manage ads, ops, retention, or CRO

I built a dashboard that revealed a $27,400 profit leak my client never knew existed.

And they’d been scaling the wrong channel the entire time.

Most CEOs think they have a “data problem.”

❌ They don’t.
❌ They have a clarity problem.

Here’s what their setup looked like before:

→ Revenue in Stripe
→ Ad spend in Meta + Google
→ COGS in a random spreadsheet
→ Profit tracked “whenever someone updated it”
→ Zero real-time visibility
→ 100% guesswork

You can’t scale what you can’t see.

So I built them a dashboard that acts like an executive control room.

Here’s what it shows live:

→ Real time revenue + profit
→ True contribution margin (constantly updating)
→ Meta vs Google ROI, side-by-side
→ New vs returning revenue breakdown
→ Sessions, orders, AOV, MER, CPA
→ Which channel prints profit
→ Which channel silently kills margin
→ Dark mode. 
→ Light mode.

One screen.
Instant clarity.
No more spreadsheet archaeology.

The result?

Before:
→ 2–3 hours/day pulling numbers
→ Decisions based on “gut”
→ Scaling the wrong channel
→ Profit leaks everywhere

After:
→ 10 minute daily review
→ Perfect clarity
→ Confident scaling
→ $27,400 leak plugged within 24 hours

This isn’t a dashboard.
It’s executive intelligence.

Anthropic ran an experiment called "Project Fetch."

They wanted to know: Can Claude control robots?

So they split 8 people into two teams.

One had Claude. 
One didn't.
They gave them robot dogs to control.

What happened next changed everything.

→ The team WITH Claude finished in half the time.
→ The team WITHOUT Claude almost got hit by a runaway robot.

⤷  But here's the scary part...

One team was confused constantly.
The other team? Tried 9x more approaches and won.

But this isn't about robots.
It's darker than that.

Claude moved from "helping write code" to directly controlling physical machines.

Like... nobody needed a robotics degree. 
Nobody needed years of experience.

Just Claude + some humans.

Think about what that means:
Anyone can now BUILD and CONTROL robots with AI.

→ Manufacturing changes.
→ Construction changes.
→ Your job... might change.

Here's the question that stuck with me 👇

"What models can help humans accomplish today, they can frequently do alone tomorrow."

Claude helped humans control robots today.
Tomorrow? Claude might control them alone.
No humans needed.

The team dynamics were interesting too:

→ Claude's team worked solo... but WITH the AI as a partner.
→ They were confident. 
→ They had good vibes.

The other team? Worked together as humans. Helped each other more.
But they still lost.

Here's what's coming:

"Claude, I need a robot that can [do this task]"

✅ Claude builds it. Codes the controls. Tests it.
✅ You wake up. 
✅ Done.

That's not sci-fi anymore.

That's literally next.

I hosted the craziest webinar with Jackson Blackledge yesterday

100+ ecom brands and agencies showed up…
We pulled back the curtain on everything.

Here's what we covered:

→ The AI that replaced our entire SOP library
→ Competitor tracking that runs 24/7 automatically
→ Reporting automation saving 15 hours/week
→ The exact Slack alerts catching $23K in wasted ad spend

Jackson showed how Echelonn scales Google Ads without the chaos.
I showed how ecom brands automate CEO/CFO dashboards.

The Q&A went 40 minutes over time.
People didn't want to leave.

We might not do this again.
We might not release the recording.

But if we run another session, you need to be there.
