Hey guys! Just a quick reminder for paid members that the AI Audit Masterclass with Corey Ganim is happening TODAY at 1:30 PM US Central Time. This will also be recorded. You can find the link to join on the Calendar - https://www.skool.com/ai-marketing-insiders/calendar Corey will go in the weeds and any questions are fair game to pick his brain on how to make this 'AI Audit' business model successful. This will be super valuable. Again these bonus Masterclasses are for Paid Members ONLY. This means both VIP and Premium members. Look forward to seeing everyone!

We're halfway through 2026 already. Back in January I asked what was actually working for people three weeks in (that post is here: https://www.skool.com/ai-marketing-insiders/3-weeks-into-january-whats-actually-working?p=73f711f7). Six months and a LOT of updates later (Claude alone has shipped more changes than I can keep track of, never mind everything else), it feels worth asking again. So, for the newer members especially: what's genuinely changed for you this year? Not what you've tried, but what you're actually using. What's improved, what's clicked, what's a workflow or idea the rest of us might find useful? Here's what's shifted for me in six months: - The efficiency gains haven't slowed down. If anything they've picked up. - Ignore the posts telling you that if you only 'chat' with AI you're doing it wrong. It completely depends on what you're chatting about. Using Claude Code as a thought partner is still one of my biggest gains. I can take something messy, get right into the weeds on it, and come out the other side with real clarity. - Talking things through with friends and colleagues is still good, and I still do it. But for ideas, detail, structure and clear communication, AI is hard to beat. We're often vague when we're put on the spot ("let me have a think", "I'm not sure", "maybe we could..."), and then you wait days for a reply. With AI there's no waiting, and you still get the back and forth. You can push back, disagree, ignore half of what it says, and still come away with gems a person would rarely hand you on the spot. - Skills have matured. I can capture a workflow once and trigger it with a single short phrase, instead of re-explaining it every time. That's a big one for me, because how I describe things varies day to day, and a skill takes that variability out. - The built-in memory and bigger context windows have caught up with the external memory setup I built back in January. It now holds the thread of a whole project between sessions, so I'm re-briefing it far less. - MCP connections and integrations have come a long way. More and more I can stay inside Claude Code instead of hopping between tabs and tools. That matters more than it sounds. Constant context switching is genuinely draining, whatever the productivity crowd says, and fewer browser tabs is a real win for me. - I can also set several agents going at once on separate jobs now, which has saved real time on the bittier work. - The loops idea I posted about recently (here: https://www.skool.com/ai-marketing-insiders/boris-cherny-doesnt-prompt-claude-anymore-he-runs-loops-so-whats-a-loop?p=b494666b) is interesting, and the steady stream of updates like that has been invaluable, not because I adopt every one, but because they help me work out where each thing actually fits. Loops might only suit a small slice of what I do, and that's fine. You don't have to take on everything, or take it on fully.

We're nearly three weeks into 2026. I'm curious what AI tools, workflows, or discoveries you've made this month that are genuinely helping your business. Not just things you've tried, but things you're using. For me, it's been Claude Code as an external memory system. I have significant brain fog, so I built a daily log and task tracking setup that remembers everything for me between sessions. It's changed how I work. Next up: turning a WordPress plugin I created a while back into a standalone app. Something I couldn't have tackled before without hiring a developer. What about you? Any tools, prompts, or workflows that have earned a permanent spot in your routine this month?

Hey! @Ryan Doser I'm currently offering a Done-For-You Patient Acquisition System for Dental Practices in the US, which includes AI automation, CRM setup, funnels, chatbots, lead nurturing, missed-call text back, appointment booking automation, and follow-up systems. My biggest challenge right now is closing my first US client. I understand the technical side of delivery, but I'm confused about the client acquisition side. I appericiate if you guys give me quick answers to these question: 1. If you were starting from zero today, how would you get your first 3 clients in the US healthcare market? 2. Would you focus more on cold calling, cold email, LinkedIn outreach, Facebook outreach, or paid ads? 3. What offer structure would make it easiest for a clinic owner to say "yes"? 4. How do you build enough trust and authority when you don't yet have case studies? Thank you.

I am now trying to learn Claude Code best practices and have learned ChatGPT, custom GPTs and Claude.ai desktop and Claude CoWork. Glad to be here and happy to share.
