WHO’S HERE | An AI Music Film 🎬
We have more ways to connect than ever before, yet somehow we’re losing touch with what human connection really means. This is my latest AI music film featuring Frank Sheanus. It’s a 2:59 short inspired by something I’ve been thinking about for a long time. Watch it here: https://youtube.com/shorts/JErG7otn1uY?si=QQpHoTUW3avG2rlF I love AI and what it allows us to create. But technology can never replace compassion, presence, or the people who show up when it really matters. “It’s not who’s watching. It’s who’s here.” Created with AI, but the message couldn’t be more human. ❤️ I’d love to hear what you take away from it.

Beautiful film, song and theme! Thanks for sharing!
I'm soon to launch a productivity app! [not another AI chatbot]
The App is called Roasty Flow, a Chrome extention that will be avaiable for evey member of Guruless Business Builders. I'm building in public and a lot of people like @Adam McCollough @Nick Nebelsky and @Des Dreckett are excited about it. So this group is a place where you can join, talk about what you're building and if you feel stuck we will try to figure out how to get you moving with actionable next steps and a structured plan. All in a round table talk, without pushing you universal frameworks, but instead listening to your unique situation, be it live or on posts you make. Roasty Flow is the app that will allow you to stay focused on the plan. It registers all of your goals and break those goals into daily tasks. So it's an app + community experience. What is special about that? The tasks can be linked to a URL domain related to the pages you're need to access and tracked by the app, so you can check if you're really focused on completing them or if you got distracted by seing other stuff, being a great self accountability tool for ADHD business owners who get distracted online, where our business is. The tracking happens locally (only on your computer) and only starts after you activate a focus session, that can also be optimized with a pomodoro counter, so you remember to take necessary breaks from the screen and come back refreshed. The app also has a fun unified metric called the Flame Score that calculates a percentage on how focused you were today and a dashboard that tracks how focused you were on a weekly, monthly and yearly basis. You also get a capture feature for taking notes, screenshots, writing sales scripts, making drafts, all without leaving your current window and with a useful search feuture so you don't get lost. That way your browsing becomes more active and less passive, as each section can be used to generate assets that you can easily find and share later.

@Paulo Costa, The Roaster I usually don't use Chrome (hate Google) but I'll likely give Roasty Flow a try.

This Ad Was Built Live On A Community Call
finished this film ad for a client last week. two hooks, still split on which one wins. the part that matters for this group: stuff like this gets built LIVE in my community. we run build calls where someone brings a project, a song, a film, an ad, and we make it together on the call. you watch the whole thing come to life, throw in suggestions, steal the process for your own stuff. and sometimes the project being built is yours. thats the whole pitch. be in the room, learn the ai film stack by watching it happen, bring your own project when youre ready. (and if you watched the ad, which hook? genuinely curious)

For me, #2 - but I would just run both in IG trials and see which one wins. Don't have to put money on it. Never shows up in the feed until you switch it out of trials. But you get the full insights on engagement.

@Dan Shea very problematic if he runs less than one...
Don't be afraid to rebrand and restart if it's not working
I'm a tech guy. So I created a tech community. It didn't work out as I didn't make any sale with it. I always had in my mind that I suck at sales. Had 2 short sales jobs where my performance was abismal. I hated it. But after being on skool for 6 months and flopping hard on every attempt to sell my tech consulting services, offer after offer, rebrand after rebrand I decided to restart from scratch. And the idea was to have fun. Roast & Promote was created as a place where people can get reviews (AKA roasts) and get rewarded with ads for roasting others. In a little more than 2 months my overall skool profit is bit more than 100 USD/month. And the community is at arounfd #300 in money category in discovery, one of the hardest of Skool. That's a big win for me. And it's all because I'm not afraid of reinvent myself, asking for feedback and fixing what is wrong. So I created a space that is optimized for that. And I'm thriving on a marketing/advertizing/sales community just a few months after being convinced that I sucked at all of that. Funny right? And I even share my community ideas for free, that are optimized by people's roasts. And you can do the same.
