I've built 47 workflows until now. Only 3 made money.
This one hurt to realize.
Spent last few months building impressive stuff:
- Multi-step agent workflows
- Complex API integrations
- Beautiful dashboards nobody asked for
Got reactions like "wow, that's cool" but bank account stayed at $0.
Then I built something embarrassingly simple for a local gym owner.

New member signs up -> Send welcome email -> Add to WhatsApp group -> Schedule first check-in -> Done.

Took 90 minutes
He paid me $600
Not because it was complex. Because it solved the ONE thing keeping him up at night: new members ghosting after week 1.

- Solved a problem the client felt that morning
- Took less than 5 days to build
- Client could explain the value to someone else in one sentence

Cool demos.
No urgency.
No clear pain point.

Stop building to impress other builders.
Start building to relieve one person's specific daily headache.
The simpler, the better.

How many workflows have you built that nobody paid for?
No judgment. I'm at 44. Just trying to figure out if this is normal or if I'm the only one who learned the hard way.
