Hi all. I’m looking to build an agent that generates proposal decks for my market research agency. This is a cumbersome process with each proposal needing to be customized to the RFP from the client and also leveraging existing and somewhat redundant data solutions. All with good, clean design that matches the client and/or my agency’s template. What tools would you all suggest?

Hey all, not sure what the demand is for this, but I put together a video on how to set up Claude Code on Windows. Video attached and here is the text version: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YBy2eK5cwIwOzXaTF3oMfMPbN-tjnCl0Vk4w0wzRwy0/edit?usp=sharing

Hi, I'm a B2B marketer with 11 years of experience. Glad to be here. Excited to learn AI automation and build workflows that solves marketing and sales problems.

when i started my ai journey back in jan this year... i hadn't even heard of skool, make, retell, vapi, or n8n. literally no clue. fast forward a few weeks — there i was, burning 4-6 hours every day on youtube and skool after my 9-5 job, feeling like a tech ninja. building chatbots, cold calling bots, content machines, fancy appointment systems... all that shiny stuff. but bro, reality hit HARD.💥. building automations was easy. getting people to PAY for them? that's where the real game started. i tried everything the internet gurus screamed about... cold calls, emails, fb ads, linkedin dms, networking, youtube videos, upwork, personalization... felt like a hamster on a wheel. left my comfy cybersecurity lead role at amazon, said goodbye to big fat salary, and jumped full time into my dream business. 3 months in, i can tell you loud and clear: "𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗘𝗦𝗧 𝗮𝗶 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗦𝗘𝗟𝗟 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺. 𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗢𝗗."💣 here are 7 brutal lessons i learned after hitting my first $10k in less than 2 months of selling ai automations: 𝟭. 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗔𝗡𝗬 𝗮𝗶 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻... 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻'𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺. (yeah, alex hormozi said it, and he wasn't kidding.) 𝟮. 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝘂𝘆𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 : for chatbots, voice ai, content bots, anything that saves time + brings leads. period. no debate. 𝟯. 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗯𝗼𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗲𝗯𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗮 𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝘀. move to voice ai, workflow automations : that's the future if you wanna stay relevant. 𝟰. 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗽𝗼𝗻. if you can't pick up the phone and pitch your stuff, stop everything and fix this first. no hiding. 𝟱. 𝗻𝟴𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀. make.com is faster, easier and can get you your first $10k without losing your hair. scale later, complicate later. 𝟲. 𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗿 𝘃𝗮𝗽𝗶 — 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗼𝗹. but if you're budget sensitive, retell is cheaper, works like a charm. (trust me.) 𝟳. 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗢𝗡𝗘 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲. build it. cold call and give it away free. get real feedback.
