Resource for Hermes Agent
Hi Everyone, Nous just released v23 and now comes with a web based application no desktop install needed. You can get one @ nous portal and try it out for $5 the first month. Using the link below. I started my journey here with big ideas about bringing Hermes Knowledge and resources to the Skool. That idea is not dead, just delayed. The main issue is the deep knowledge needed to explain how Hermes works. I've been spending about 2 months deep into the Hermes world and I've built some pretty amazing stuff in my private lab cooking up some pretty mean brew. I'm going to bring it all here with videos built by that hermes lab. In the meantime if you are looking for some resources, the top of my list right now: https://hermeswatcher.com https://www.youtube.com/@TonbisAIGarage https://www.youtube.com/@Wanderloots If you sign up for an account here, you get $15 off your first month. No annual committment. Choose a model like Qwen 3.8 flash Qwen3.8 Flash in $0.15/1M / out $0.47/1M $15 off your first month. Choose $20 plan. Sign up here --> https://portal.nousresearch.com/r/jordan-shaw Under Cloud - Create an Agent - Start Agent - or hover over the agent instance and go to control panel dropdown and choose Open Hermes agent. That starts the hosted webapp (Don't choose Dashboard). Have Fun. https://hermeswatcher.com is a great place to begin if your a little hesitant of signing up right away. Now go build something.

Admittedly I have not spent much time here even though I know it's what you're working on. The reality is I'm going to ride on your coattails for a while but I'm excited to see what's coming and I have a question or 2. Can't most of us run Gwen Flash on a local machine? Is Hermes a harness that can be local and self-hosted? You mentioned a call Monday. Is this call open and available to others or something a select group is working on? Presuming my kid gets his driver's license on Tuesday afternno as planned, I should be free to get on the Tuesday call with @Ry Mac . ✌️

@Ry Mac 🔥. Love me some whizbang doo-hickeys. ❤️ Thanks
Customers vs. Clients
A lot of people get this confused. I see people routinely refer to customers and clients as if they're they same and they're not. This is my short take: - A customer buys a product or service from you that works without you - A client buys your (or someone on your teams) time and you work with them People think they want to start an "AI agency" and they want clients but they do not realize the ability to scale a client based business is much harder and more expensive than "gurus" will tell you. Then they close some deals and realize they've created their self another J.O.B. and not a business. You're replacing time for money. A business that has customers is much easier to scale with hiring margins and less overhead. You're providing a solution that you spent your time on building. It doesn't trade your time for money. This is easier to scale. Neither business model is wrong or right, it's just wrong or right depending on what it is you actually want to do vs what it is you think it does. An example: My VIP has clients (we meet weekly and I'm trading time for money ) My Perfect ICM Builder has customers (we never speak and I'm not trading time for money) So let me ask you... Do you want customers or clients? Lemme' know below 👇

@Ry Mac "My customers usually turn into clients or the opportunity is there for that to happen 💪". Is exactly what I wanted to hear.

Talk to an AI for 10 minutes and find your biggest gap
Update: it’s a coach now 💪 Thanks to the feedback here, the talk page got a big upgrade. Same link: Talk It Out What’s new: 🎙️ Daily coach: paste it once into a chat called “Coach.” Then every day just tap the mic and say “check in.” 3 minutes. It holds you to ONE next step, shrinks it if you missed, and parks shiny new ideas until Sunday. 📅 Sunday review: say “weekly review” and it goes back over your week and sets Monday’s step. 📚 Learn mode: say “learn” and it only lets you learn what fixes the problem in front of you. You explain it back in your own words and have to use it within 48 hours. One kick 10,000 times, not 10,000 kicks once. 📁 Coach as a folder: already run a second brain or AI operating system? 4 files you drop in, so the coach remembers across chats. (Credit @RyMac for this one.) Never done any of this? Start with the 10-minute interview at the top. It finds your biggest gap, and the coach keeps you on it. Try 3 check-ins this week and come back and tell us what happened. Missed days count too. Showing up to say “I didn’t do it” is the whole point. https://claude.ai/artifact/Rfnh6v91wkov3RFQHyrMSM

@Mason Page the next-level thing is recognizing what success looks like for you and not trying to compare ourselves or be as good or as elevated as the people we treat as our mentors. Success to me means I get to spend time with my kid out on the river or the lake or at a theme park, so I'm at whatever it takes to get to that point. The rest trickles down from there. I saw your other post about the trades. It's an area that I work in. I think there's another member that I spoke to a couple weeks ago who's in Canada, also trying to work in the trades industry. Keep doing what you're doing. We'll support you. If you need help, reach out. I actually find myself teaching things less related to AI but more related to technology in general when I'm in my circle of friends. The funny thing is, I used to think they knew the same things I knew, but they don't. Or even if they know, they just don't have the time to spend on it to get it done at the level at which they want to get it done, so they never start. I used to think they had access to the same things I had access to, but they don't. Sometimes, when you start just exposing your knowledge and the way you do things to your circle, you find that there are people who need you, and you didn't know they needed you.

@Ry Mac same concept I would do.
How to pitch a website?
I'm trying to figure out how to get more people to my website. It's not techy or an agency that builds for others. It provides encouragement and helpful information (products too) for women who are going through difficult seasons in life as well as some faith based content (gratitude, trusting God, etc.). I don't want to pitch to the folks who would use the material right now. I actually want to pitch to the people who know people who would benefit from the material. Does that make sense? Think: ministers, family counselors, support groups, hospice workers, etc. How do I do it in a way that doesn't seem salesy?

@Ry Mac I was just a witness to this this week with a lead, who happens to be a friend of mine. I gave him a great proposal to help him with a lot of his online social reputation. I gave him a very fair rate and time horizon to do the project, taking on most of the work myself. At least, I thought so, but he still had the perception (a valid perception, probably) that his team would have to have significant involvement. I really need to figure out how to pare down his needs to where he has a clear understanding that his team doesn't have to have that much involvement to get the benefit of this work. In a couple weeks, when I reach out to him for followup, I want to be able to show the limited scope that his team would actually need to be involved for me to be successful at doing the work. The point of this is that this situation is real. If they see your project as adding to their to-do list in some significant way, and they're not prepared to do that, in this case, he's got a low-staff situation. The prospect will say no, for now at least... Actually, one of the items of our project was to help him with his profile and job posting situation on LinkedIn, it was a small part, but a part nonetheless. Anyway He doesn't feel like he can take on more work until he can pick up the staff he needs to do some of the things he's engaged in. It's a revolving double-edged sword, which is dangerous.
Playing around with Ry Mac's video pipeline
I took the ICM folder structure with a style I created, mixed it with @Ry Mac's video content pipeline and...Voilá! Excerpt taken from one of Ry's YouTube videos :).
