Super excited to share this milestone… I just landed my first automation project on Upwork — and it feels amazing to see the momentum finally picking up. 🔥 For the past few months I’ve been going all-in on building AI + automation skills, creating sample projects, and helping people inside different communities whenever I could. And today, that effort paid off. The client booked me to build a lead generation and automated workflows. This is exactly the kind of work I’ve been preparing for — real problems, real users, real impact. I’m sharing this not to brag… but to remind anyone starting out: 👉 Keep showing your work 👉 Keep building 👉 Keep helping 👉 The opportunities will come This is just the beginning for me, and I’m excited to keep stacking wins from here. If you're also in the automation space or building your agency, would love to connect and learn from your journey too. 🙌 If you want help in getting clients in upwork you can message me. Let’s grow together. 🚀

Agencies don’t fail because they lack talent. They fail because their client-generation system has more leaks than a cheap water tank. Here’s the real picture—point by point—so you can see exactly where things break and how to fix them. 1. No Consistent Outreach Engine Most agencies rely on random bursts of outreach. One good week → three quiet weeks → no pipeline. Why this happens:No automated system that runs daily—whether the founder is motivated or not. 2. Leads Come In… and Then Disappear People reply. People show interest. People say “sounds good, send me more info.” Then life happens…And that warm prospect slowly fades into the digital abyss. The leak: No automated follow-up that adapts to the lead’s behavior. 3. Zero Speed-to-Lead If you reply 2 hours later, you already lost them.Another agency already grabbed the conversation. Manual = slow → lost deals. 4. Weak Nurture, No Trust-Building Most agencies stop after 1–2 messages. They don’t educate, don’t build authority, don’t position themselves as the obvious solution. The Fix: A Pipeline Engine That Never Sleeps This is where the game flips. (1) SMS Marketing as the Frontline Soldier SMS gets 98% open rates. Your message is actually seen. And with AI-backed SMS flows: - AI replies instantly - AI nurtures - AI handles questions - AI books appointments directly from the SMS conversation You spend 5 minutes setting up the flow and your calendar fills on its own. (2) AI That Responds Instantly (24/7) AI becomes your always-awake sales rep. It handles: - First responses - FAQs - Objections - Prequalification - Direct booking into your calendar Every reply is instant. Every warm lead gets handled. No delay, no drop-off. (3) Automation That Closes the Gaps Automation keeps everything connected. If a lead shows interest, replies, or interacts in any positive way, automation ensures AI follows up, nurtures, and keeps booking on autopilot—without depending on you to manually jump in.
