Want to know the dirty secret about landing clients?
Start with their paperwork. Every. Single. Time.
Why documents? Because every business drowns in them:
- Invoices
- Contracts
- Applications
- Forms
- Reports
And guess what? They're all just data trapped in PDFs.
MY FIRST 10 CLIENTS:
1. Dentist - Patient forms - $1,500
2. Lawyer - Contract extraction - $2,000
3. Accountant - Invoice processing - $1,800
4. Gym - Membership apps - $1,500
5. Restaurant - Vendor invoices - $1,200
6. Contractor - Permit docs - $2,000
7. School - Enrollment forms - $1,700
8. Clinic - Insurance forms - $1,900
9. Realtor - Lease agreements - $1,600
10. Retailer - Purchase orders - $1,400
Total: $16,600 from moving data from PDFs to spreadsheets.
THE SIMPLE TECH STACK THAT PRINTS MONEY:
- Automation tool: Pick one (Zapier/Make/n8n)
- PDF processor: PDF Vector (my go-to, free tier handles 100 docs)
- Storage: Google Drive (free)
- Delivery: Their existing system
That's it. $50/month in tools. $2,000/month per client.
THE WINNING FORMULA:
1. Find business drowning in paperwork
2. Count hours wasted on data entry
3. Build simple PDF β Spreadsheet workflow
4. Demo with their actual document
5. Close with ROI math
REAL EXAMPLE FROM LAST WEEK:
Insurance broker, 50 applications/day
Manual entry: 5 hours
My automation: 0 hours
Their savings: $3,000/month
My fee: $1,800 + $200/month
Build time: 3 hours
Your competition is charging $10k for "AI solutions."
You're solving real problems for $2k.
Who do you think wins?
