I just submitted my first ever n8n challenge 🎉 last week Honestly didn't think I'd finish it. I'm not a developer. I have almost zero coding background. But I built a fully automated AI Job Scout Agent for a Senior Backend Engineer named Daniel — and submitted it before the deadline. The workflow runs every Monday at 8am. Searches live job boards using Firecrawl. Filters by stack, salary, location and deal-breakers. Delivers a ranked briefing straight to Gmail. Zero manual effort. I hit 4 real errors while building. Wrong prompt source. Broken memory session. Firecrawl in the wrong mode. A busted date expression in Gmail. Fixed all 4. Learned more in one day than I did in a week of watching tutorials. If you're learning automation and haven't tried a community challenge yet — just do it. Nothing teaches you faster than a real deadline and a real project. On to May's challenge now. 👊 Built with n8n + Firecrawl + OpenAI GPT-4o Also accompanied by a video (dont know how did I make that!?) 🤣😁 You can find the JSON prompt for this workflow and other → https://jd-auto-pilot.vercel.app/

In this video, I break down exactly how to sign your first AI workflow client in 7 days, with real proof. You’ll hear directly from a member of AIS+, Christian, who signed his first automation client in just 7 days. We walk through the exact process he used, what actually worked, and how you can apply the same steps yourself.

Today, I'll be showing you how to get your first AI Automation client without starting an agency. These days, everyone thinks they need to start a full blown AI Agency to succeed, but that's simply not true. So in this video I'll be revealing how to get your first AI automation client without starting an agency, and the exact strategy I'd use myself if I was starting again WITHOUT a YouTube channel. Hope you enjoy!

From high-ticket deals and agency SaaS launches to client systems, websites, and real-world automations - this week inside AIS+ was packed with serious builder energy. 🚀 Standout Wins of the Week 👉 Michael Wacht closed a $10K AI Readiness Assessment deal, sponsored by finance with training and system-integration readiness included. 👉 @Uros Pesic signed a £9K UK agency client for a 3-month ops audit and used multi-agent Claude Code to prep 20+ interviews in parallel. 👉 @Fernando Gómez turned a corporate social-media automation system into an agency SaaS with €2.5K setup + €100/month per client. 👉 @George Mbajiaku closed his first $1,300 client by shifting his pitch from “n8n builder” to “problem solver.” 👉 @Josh Holladay wrapped a 30-day client sprint and earned a retainer offer for ongoing strategy, builds, and AI education. 🎥 Super Win Spotlight | Balaji Iyer Balaji joined AIS+ knowing he could build something useful - but he needed structure, clarity, and confidence. Since joining, he has: • Set up his own cloud instance, Docker, Postgres, and self-hosted n8n • Built a real backend workflow from scratch • Created an app he now improves daily • Moved from “Can I really do this?” to “How can I make this better?” His biggest shift? Going from sitting on the sidelines → to finally building something he’s proud of. Balaji’s journey is proof that once you take the first step, momentum starts to build. 🎥 Watch Balaji’s story 👇 ✨ Want to see wins like this every week?

My latest automation in n8n and post on LinkedIn 👇 ________________________________________________________ 3 nodes. 0 missed urgent requests. That's what I built this morning. Here's the problem I was solving: A service business gets 20 new requests a week. 3 or 4 of them are time-sensitive — the client needs something within 7 days. But they all land in the same inbox. Same priority. Same queue. The urgent ones sit there until someone manually reads through and figures out which ones need immediate action. By then it's too late to respond fast. And fast response is often the difference between winning and losing the client. So I built this in n8n: → Web form captures the request + preferred date → One IF node checks: is this within 7 days? → Yes → Slack ping to the team immediately, flagged as urgent → No → routed to standard workflow The team now sees urgent requests the moment they come in. On their phones. In Slack. Before they've even opened a browser. This is what AI automation actually looks like in practice — not robots replacing people, but a 3-node system making sure the right person sees the right thing at the right time. ----------------------------------- https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7453446135442083840/
