"How I Built My AI Executive Assistant For $20/Month
And How You Can Too...Even if you're not technical, have no idea what you'd use it for, and you've already tried AI and walked away unimpressed.
Three Ways To Use This Page.
WATCH IT
The full session is right there, start to finish. It is the whole thing and not a trailer.

Everything I covered on that call is written out below, in the same order. If you would rather skim in ten minutes than sit through the recording, just start scrolling.
SKIP IT
If you already know you want this, there are several buttons throughout the page below that will let you get started right away.
You're In the Right Place If...
————————————
You run a business without the staff to match.
You're the one chasing the invoice and rewriting the proposal at nine o'clock at night.
You already pay for AI every month and you suspect it should be doing more than this.
You're the bottleneck in your own business, and you're usually the last one to find out.
The Short Version, In Case You Never Scroll Past This
————————————
I spent the last five years as the entire company.
A custom barn door business I built from nothing. Over $100,000 a year, every year, on my own. I was the sales & marketing guy, the builder, the delivery driver, the installer, the purchasing manager, the website guy, the bookkeeper, and the customer service department. If something got done, it got done because I did it.
So when I tell you that you are the bottleneck, I am not reading that off a slide. I have been the bottleneck and it's very easy to get yourself in that position.
Then I built myself an AI executive assistant that actually knows my business. Not a chatbot I have to re-explain myself to every single morning. Something that holds my pricing, my process, my rules and all the things that used to live only in my head, and then goes and does real work with them.
It costs me about $20 a month.
Once everything was in place, the assistant itself came together in an afternoon. I want to be straight with you about the other half of that, because it is the half nobody mentions: getting everything in place first is the first part that stops people. It is where I got stuck, and had to walk away in frustration. Despite my frustration, I determined I HAD TO get this done. So I went to Google to search the error codes and problems I was running into. I pored through comment sections to find the same issues that might provide answers. Eventually, I persevered.
I finally had my own AI Executive Assistant!
Great, but...Now what?
That question is why I signed up for a 3-day in-person workshop to learn first hand from some high-level operators that had already answered that question in a big way.
Now, I've built an app, built a game I can play on my browser, and I've given all those "back burner" ideas and projects the attention they deserve. I have 15 years of courses and products I've created, all cataloged and added to my vault. 24+ years of entrepreneurship - my thoughts, concepts, strategies, life lessons - mapped across 3 new books.
I must warn you, however.
There is one significant drawback that I didn't consider.
I cannot sleep!
Every single day, it's like waking up as a child on Christmas morning. My mind is racing with ideas, inspired by the unlimited possibilities on what I can now accomplish everyday.
I am absolutely giddy and DRUNK WITH POWER!!!
Sorry, I'm getting carried away, but I simply cannot help myself....
I WILL NEVER WORK THE SAME WAY AGAIN.
That is the whole pitch. Watch the replay, or keep reading and I will show you the entire thing.
How I Got Here, and Why I'm the One Telling You This
————————————
I have been self-employed for twenty-four years. Five different industries. I have never once had a W-2 job.
That is not a brag, it is just context for what comes next.
I have made millions of dollars and lost all of it. Twice.
The first time was 2007. I had flipped fifty or sixty houses by the time I was twenty-eight, I had a home inspection company, and I owned three houses. Then the housing market came apart and took every bit of it. Three houses, two cars, and I sold my son's crib to start over.
I am not going to dress that up. I did not see it coming and that is on me. What I did afterward is the part I will defend. I did not fold and I did not go looking for a bailout. I looked at the new reality, caught a new vision, and rebuilt from nothing.
Then came five years as the entire company you just read about above.
You Have Already Lived Through This Once
————————————
There was a short window, and you remember it, where being online was an advantage instead of a requirement.
For a few years, having a website meant something. Then it meant nothing, because everybody had one. The people who moved during that window got a decade out of it. The people who waited until it was obvious got to be the same as everyone else.
We are standing in that window again right now.
Roughly half of American adults now use an AI chatbot. Pew has it at 49%, up from 33% the year before that and 23% the year before that.
Almost none of them have built one that knows their business, holds their rules, and does actual work.
That gap is the entire opportunity, and it is going to close. Not because the tools get harder, but because they get easier and everybody catches up. What is worth something today is worth nothing the day it becomes standard.
Your competitors already pay for the same tools you do.
That is the part people miss. This is not a spending problem and it is not an access problem. The guy across town has the same twenty dollar subscription sitting in his browser that you do.
The only thing between you and him is whether one of you knows how to put it to work.
A Chatbot Is Not an Assistant
————————————
This is the distinction the entire thing turns on, and almost nobody makes it.
A chatbot
Answers questions
Remembers what it happens to notice about you
Sees only what you paste into the window
Waits to be asked
An assistant
Knows your business
Reads your actual documents, notes and folders
Remembers what you told it
Goes and does the job
You have been using the left column.
And yes, it remembers you now.
Every chatbot worth using remembers things about you between conversations. That is real and it works.
It remembers what it decided was worth keeping. Here is what OpenAI's own help page says you have to do if it learned something about your business that is no longer true, like the price you charged before you raised your rates:
"To fully delete something ChatGPT may know about you, you'll need to delete every source where it appears, including past chats, archived chats, files, the memory summary, and disconnect any connected apps that may contain that information."
Every past chat. Every archived chat. Every file. That is not an edit, that is an excavation.
An assistant on your own machine keeps what it knows in plain files that you wrote. You open one, change the line, and it is changed everywhere, permanently. You own it, you back it up, and it comes with you to whatever model is best next year.
That is the difference. Not whether it remembers you. Whether you own what it knows.
Before I show you the offer, one honest note:
Everything I told you about my own businesses is true and it is my history, not a forecast.
I am not going to show you a screenshot and imply you will get the same thing. The barn door business made over $100,000 a year for five years because I worked it for five years. What you get out of an assistant depends entirely on what you point it at and how much of your own knowledge, work habits, expertise, ideas, and yourself you put into it.
Some people will build this and change how their week works. Some will build this and change the world. Some people will buy it and never open it. I cannot control which one you are, and anybody who tells you they can guarantee your results is lying to you.
What I can guarantee is the thing I actually control, and I do guarantee it. Your assistant will be built and it will be running, or I will buy this back from you.
Introducing...
Once Inside Agent Architect, You Will Discover...
————————————
The twenty minute exercise you do on paper before you install anything, so that you point your assistant at a job that actually makes you money or saves you time instead of building something impressive that solves nothing.
Three separate installation paths, one for Windows, one for Mac and one for Chromebook, so that you can follow the one that matches the machine already on your desk instead of a generic tutorial written for somebody else's computer.
The Chromebook path that almost nobody teaches, so that you can build this on the cheapest laptop in the house instead of being told to go buy a real computer first.
The one step that separates an actual assistant from a chatbot, so that you can stop re-explaining your own business every single morning.
Why your assistant's memory belongs in plain text files on your own machine, so that you can change AI providers next year and walk out with everything it knows about your business.
The index file that almost everybody skips, so that your assistant goes straight to what it needs instead of drowning in everything you have ever told it.
The ten prompts that make your assistant interview you, so that its identity gets written by talking for ten minutes instead of by staring at a blank configuration file.
How to speak to your assistant instead of typing , so that you can give it three times the detail in half the time.
A pre-answered file built for your trade and your seat, so that you can start by correcting a draft instead of starting from nothing.
The exact order to hand over your pricing, your process and your real documents, so that you can do it in five short sittings instead of one overwhelming afternoon.
How to ensure the part of the job that lives only in your head actually makes it into the system.
The single question that proves your assistant really knows your business, so that you can tell the difference between working and not working instead of hoping.
Exactly what to do when it fails that test, so that a generic answer becomes your next instruction instead of the moment you quit.
The three moves that decide what it is allowed to do and when, so that you can hand over real work without lying awake wondering what it sent overnight.
The one sentence that goes into its file so it never contacts a client without showing you first, so that you stay in control permanently instead of having to remember to be careful.
Why it cannot tell a message from an instruction, and the rule that fixes it, so that a stranger's email cannot quietly hand orders to something that works for you.
One universal request that connects it to any service on earth, so that you can plug in your email, your calendar and your customer list without ever hunting for an API key.
The difference between a test that proves a connection works and one that just asks your assistant to grade its own homework, so that you never take its word for anything again.
The backup almost nobody sets up until the week after they needed it, so that a dead laptop costs you twenty minutes instead of everything you built.
The one mistake people make copying to a USB drive that fails silently and reports success, so that your backup is genuinely there on the day you go looking for it.
A standing job that lands every weekday morning without being asked, so that you stop having to remember to open it and it comes to you instead.
Why that same morning message doubles as your early warning, so that you find out something is wrong on the morning it happens rather than three weeks later.
Here's What's Under the Hood Inside Agent Architect
————————————
Seven modules and a written step-by-step guide under every single one. No drip. Everything unlocks the day you join.
MODULE 0
Before You Touch Anything
In Module 0, I keep you away from your computer entirely.
The six questions that decide whether any of this was worth doing, answered on paper in about twenty minutes, including the arithmetic that puts a dollar figure on it
Where your business is bleeding, named as a stage with a real number attached
The five jobs you do every week that your own hourly rate makes ridiculous
What a new hire would have to learn from you in person, because it is written down nowhere
What you are genuinely not allowed to put into an outside system, written down while you are calm instead of later when you are moving fast
Why the most common way this fails is not technical, and how twenty minutes with a pen removes it completely
This is the only module in the course nobody can get stuck on, and it is the one that decides everything after it.
MODULE 1
Get It On Your Machine
In Module 1, I get the software running on the computer you already own. This is the only technical module in the whole course, and there are three versions of it.
1A for Windows, 1B for Mac, 1C for Chromebook
System requirements, the account you need, the install, and signing in
One command to prove it is alive and answering you
The Chromebook path in full, which most training pretends does not exist
Pick the one that matches your machine and ignore the other two. All three end in exactly the same place.
MODULE 2
Give It A Memory
In Module 2, I show you the step that turns a chatbot into an assistant, and almost nobody knows it exists.
The folder on your own computer where everything it knows about your business is going to live
Plain text files, organized by what things are. Not a database, not a plugin, not a paid tier of anything
The index file that makes the whole thing work, and why most people leave it out
How to set up the shape in thirty minutes and then stop, so it fills itself in as you work
Why plain text on your own machine means you own this outright and can take it with you
MODULE 3
Write Its Identity, By Talking
In Module 3, your assistant writes its own identity file while you talk. You are not filling in a configuration file. You are being interviewed.
The ten prompts, in order, one conversation at a time
The five things that file has to carry before it is finished
Why you turn dictation on before you start, and why rambling is not just allowed but required
How to start from a draft that already knows your trade instead of ever facing a blank page
The shortcut for your specific trade that turns an evening into about ten minutes
What to run every month so the file never quietly goes out of date
MODULE 4
Feed It Your Business
In Module 4, we fill the container. Module 3 taught it who you are. This is where it learns what you know.
The five sittings, in order, and what goes into each one
Why you talk it through instead of uploading a stack of files
Your real pricing, your real process, your real documents and your real emails
Why you record the reason next to the rule, and what happens when you do not
The one question that proves it worked, and what to do the first time it does not
MODULE 5
Set The Guardrails
In Module 5, we handle the part everybody else selling AI skips entirely. This comes before you connect anything, and that order is not negotiable.
The three moves, and where most people should stop on purpose
The standing rule that goes into its file so it never contacts a client without showing you first
Why a rule written into the file outlasts a rule you said out loud
What does not get connected early, and what to do first if you are licensed or regulated
The thing nobody tells you about how your assistant treats what it reads, and the one rule that closes it
Building the engine is one thing. This is the module about the brakes, and it is why you will still trust this thing in six months.
MODULE 6
Connect It, Back It Up, Put It To Work
In Module 6, we finish the job in a single sitting. Three parts, about an hour, and at the end of it you are operational.
Connecting one service, read access only, one confirmed step at a time
The universal request that works for any service you will ever want to plug in
How to test a connection so it cannot fake the answer
Two backups in two places, and the silent failure that catches almost everybody
The plain-English file to write now that you will be grateful for on a bad day later
Your first standing job, landing every weekday morning without you asking
Why that same message is also the alarm that tells you something is wrong
MODULE 7
Take It With You
In Module 7, I show you how to take your new AI Executive Assistant with you so you never lose track of an idea, thought, or task - no matter where you are.
Your assistant in your pocket in about five minutes, so the work that happens between appointments stops waiting for you to get back to a desk
Why the thing on your phone is the same assistant and not a stripped-down copy that has to be caught up
The one condition that decides whether it is actually there when you reach for it
Two microphones on your phone that look identical, and the one that quietly cuts you off mid-sentence
Optional: speaking to it out loud at your own desk and having it answer back, with nothing leaving your machine (coming soon...)
And Once You Are Through the Modules
You Also Get...
A checkpoint page where you confirm you are up and running, or say what you are stuck on, so nobody quietly disappears
Your own trade and role file, built for the work you actually do
The prompt library, grouped by the moment you would want them rather than by feature (coming soon...)
A help page you can reach from anywhere in the course, for the week the wheels come off
The group, where the people one step ahead of you already answered the thing you are about to ask
Get In, Build It, Change the Way You Work.
It's a total no-brainer. Jump ahead of your competition now.

Your Assistant Will Be Built And Running. That Is The Guarantee.
————————————
Most people selling you something like this will guarantee your money back. I am going to guarantee the thing you actually came for.
Your assistant will be built and it will be running.
That means three things, and they do not move: it is installed and answering you, it has a Genius File written in your own words, and one connection is working and you have tested it yourself.
Hit those three and you are operational. That is the bar, and you clearing it is the thing I am promising.
I will not leave people stuck.
Inside the members area, there is a page where you tell me one of exactly two things. That you are up and running, or what you are stuck on. Say you are stuck and I will help you. The group first, because that is fastest and somebody in there may have already solved the thing in front of you. A PM to me after that if it needs one.
I am telling you that because I know what the fear is. The fear is not that this does not work. The fear is that it does not work for you, on your machine, on a Tuesday night, with nobody around to ask. That is the only real reason people do not try this.
So I removed it.
And If I Somehow Cannot Get You There, I'll Buy It Back
I have never liked the phrase "we'll refund your money." When you buy something, you exchange your money for something of equal or greater value. This is the law of fair trade.
So I am not going to refund you. If this does not work out, I will buy it back from you.
Do the work. Mark the checkpoint. Let me help you. And if after all of that your assistant still is not running within your first 30 days, I will buy the course back for what you paid.
There are conditions and I am going to be straight about them, because I would rather you read them now than find them later.
You have to actually do it.
I cannot buy back something you never picked up. If you join, download the bonuses, never open a module and ask for your money back, that is not a guarantee claim. That is just shopping.
The full terms are right here and they are short. If you are the kind of person who was going to do the work anyway, not one of them will ever apply to you.
The replay comes down Sunday, September 13 at midnight.
After that this page comes down and the offer closes. I'm taking it down for the time being so I can focus on getting this first group of members up and running.
You already have the same twenty dollar tool the guy across town has. The only question left is whether one of you puts it to work.
Your Price Today:
Just $997
Or
2 Payments of $549
Second payment 30 days after the first one. Same course, same bonuses, same day-one access.
Sign Up Now - You'll Be Glad You Did!

Everything unlocks the day you join. No drip, nothing held back.
