From My First $340 to $6K Months — The Power of Putting in the Work
Most people think “putting in the work” means life suddenly gets easy.That once you start, the challenges magically disappear.
It’s the opposite.
Putting in the work means showing up even when it’s hard.Even when you doubt yourself.Even when the results aren’t instant.
Back on May 16, I landed my very first client.They paid me $340 for a simple lead qualification system.
It felt like the world to me.
Fast forward to now — I average $6,000+ every month building automation systems for clients.
Here’s just a glimpse of what I’ve built so far:
  • Solar Lead qualification system — $340
  • Lead reactivation sequence — $2,400
  • Funnel for a life insurance agent (recruits & qualifies both agents + policies) — $1,500
  • Another funnel (same niche) — $1,500
  • Chatbot for an insurance website — $400
  • Email outreach agent with follow-up + deep personalization — $4,000
  • Academic paper experiment system using fictitious emails — $3,200
  • Abandoned cart recovery system — $4,000
  • Voice Agent(VAPI + N8N MCP) for a Dubai based Real estate company -- $1000
  • Plus, over $1,500 in digital product n8n template sales
And none of it came easy.There were challenges. Rebuilds. Silent weeks. Rejections.
But I kept building.
I’m sharing this to say:
AI and automation can actually make you real money — if you put in the work.
If you’re just starting out, don’t get discouraged by slow days or small wins.Every system you build, every skill you sharpen, compounds.
Keep going.Your $340 moment could be the start of your $6K months. 💰
