Welcome, welcome, you made it! 😄 I’m genuinely stoked you’ve decided to back yourself and go after your first $1k with AI. I've made this course as if I'm explaining it to my friends & family: as accessible and simple as possible for anyone to succeed 🥰 To kick things off, reply to this post with: - a photo of you and/or your workspace 📸 - a few words about where you’re at in life right now - and what you’d love to have changed or achieved over the next year or two 🥰 Start Quest exists for one simple reason: to help you earn your first $1,000 using AI — without overwhelm, hype, or decision fatigue. This is the starting zone. We’re not trying to: - build massive agencies - learn everything about AI and become a master tech wizard - scale hard or hustle endlessly We are here to: - remove noise - choose a proven starting path - take calm, consistent action - and complete your first real win To make this easy, we don’t start with endless options. Everyone begins with the same simple, beginner-friendly path that works in the real world with real businesses. This is the exact approach I’ve been using inside my agency, Team Empathy, over the last few years. You’ll be gently walked through how to set things up, have a sales conversation, and deliver the work: without needing to figure everything out on your own. Think of it as being guided through a starting zone: clear path, simple steps, no unnecessary friction. All you need to do is show up consistently and put in the time. Do that, and you’ll be surprised how quickly you move through this first stage. Starting zones are designed to get you moving — and you’ll be out of this one before you know it. 🔥 Once you’ve unlocked that first $1k: - your confidence changes - your mindset shifts - and expanding into other paths becomes much easier Move through the Classroom in order.
