WHAT THE WINNER GETS
One custom AI Studio build - done WITH you. Working 1-on-1 directly with me. Built in Pickaxe BUT also with custom instructions you can apply directly into other LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.
The Process:
  • Discovery call: We map your exact workflow and where this fits
  • Framework extraction: Pull your processes and expertise out of your head
  • Custom GPT build: I write the instructions specifically for YOUR use case
  • Studio setup: Embed it, license it, tie it into your CRM - wherever it needs to live
  • 90 days support: Async collaboration to fine-tune until it's dialed
Real talk: I've charged $1k+ for simple builds. $5k+ for more advanced builds and have revenue share deals in place with partners when it makes sense. Typically I only build these this with ongoing clients I work with monthly. Outside of the one-off build here or there over the past year. This is the first time I'm offering this level of work. Not sure I will do it again. We shall see!
Whether the winning bid is $20 or $2k or $20k, we'll work directly together to make this AI Studio a kick-ass asset that you can leverage in your business and use as a time-saving resource that also can help generate revenue. So many ways to use these types of custom GPTs, it really depends on YOU and so with that said, here are a few examples of what I've built with clients and partners in the past:
Examples of what I've built:
  • Sales call analyzer that leads to booked appointments
  • Custom brand blueprint that processes discovery transcripts
  • Buyer evaluation reports for agents to win listings
  • Script writing assistant for YouTube frameworks
  • Home seller descriptions that support listing appointments
Some internal tools.
Some client delivery tools.
Some have directly supported clients closing $100k+ in commissions on real estate deals.
When you get the right tool in the right workflow, it compounds fast.
You can also check out my own studio at studio.marketsauce.ai to see how people currently tap into my own suite of custom GPTs.
WITH THAT SAID...
WHAT EVERYONE GETS
Pickaxe Black Friday Deal is LIVE - SO that means for a limited time, there is a special bonus for signing up for Pickaxe. This is not a 'discount' on a course or product or made up urgency. This is an incentive Pickaxe put together to give people extra credits when they start their own Pickaxe studio. As an affiliate of Pickaxe, I wanted to help support those in the community who wanted to build their own custom GPTs in a platform that allows you to license and sell tools or create value-added tools for your own marketing, sales and operations.
This is exactly what you get when you sign up (from Pickaxe):
  • The promotion: All users who complete a net-new signup starting next week will receive $100 of free credit, and any user who upgrades during this period will receive an additional $100 of credit.
  • Timing: Launching next week from Monday, Nov 17th at 12:00pm PST through Cyber Monday, Dec 1st.
SO THAT MEANS. Whether you win the Auction or not, if you sign-up for Pickaxe, (Sign up at genaiu.com/pickaxe) everyone here gets:
  • $100 free credit (new signups) OR additional $100 (upgrades) - must be a net-new signup. So if you have an account bit don't have anything serious built, you can make a new one to tap into this deal.
  • When you use genaiu.com/pickaxe you will get 10% OFF your first 3 months, too. :-)
I have submitted several templates that people can use when getting started with Pickaxe, which means you can clone them into your account in the Pickaxe Templaes section inside the Dashboard. A popular one I'd recommend everyone clone to see how a template gets structured, is "Quantum Mentalist": studio.pickaxe.co/STUDIOKKSMXFCANBKZ10M/Marketing_Mentalist_OBFR1
  • So once you have a Pickaxe account, you can find these and search for them. Not all are available right now but you can see the ones I've submitted and are downloadable currently in the screenshot.
This will help you get started building your own AI studio with a template to lay the foundation, which you can tweak and modify with your own prompts, and branding.
Promo runs through Dec 1.
With that said... I am also going to do a focused Ai studio build with how you can take these templates within Pickaxe and create your own Studio on Thursday, 11/20/2025...
