McKinsey just confirmed what we've been seeing in the field: 80% of AI implementations fail to deliver ROI.


But here's what's wild - it's not because the technology doesn't work.
It's because businesses are solving the wrong problems.

A dental practice buys an AI email writer when their actual problem is leads sitting unanswered for 4 hours, losing them 30% of potential patients.

An HVAC company implements a chatbot when their real issue is after-hours calls going to voicemail, costing them $90K annually in missed jobs.

Three months later, the tool's collecting dust and they're convinced "AI doesn't work for us."

The 20% getting massive returns?

They start with diagnosis, not technology. They find the expensive problem first, quantify what it's costing them, then prescribe the solution.

That's what separates wasting $50K on AI that doesn't move the needle from investing $81K in a system that pays for itself in 9 months.

The 6-Step Framework We Use With 7-8 Figure Businesses:

Step 1: Define Clear Outcomes - Not "we need AI" but "cut lead response time from 4 hours to 5 minutes, capturing $161K in lost revenue"

Step 2: Map How Business Actually Works - Talk to the people in the trenches, not just executives. That's where you find the real bottlenecks.

Step 3: Break Into Atomic Tasks - "Follow up with leads" is actually 7 separate tasks. Only some are automatable.

Step 4: Identify What AI Can Do - Four-question filter: Is input structured? Output predictable? Decisions rule-based? Repeated often?

Step 5: Prioritize For Impact - Plot everything on a 2x2 grid. Start with quick wins that prove ROI in weeks, not months.

Step 6: Calculate Real ROI - Put dollar amounts on everything. Time wasted + lost revenue = annual cost of inefficiency.

An example from a recent project:

Property management company bleeding $179K annually in waste and lost revenue.

Our solution: $81K to implement.

Eight months later:
→ Lead response time: 3-4 hours to 18 seconds
→ Conversion rate: 20% to 24% = $161K in additional revenue
→ Tenant communication time: Reduced 68% = $42K saved
→ Maintenance coordination: Reduced 58% = $12.5K saved

Total annual impact: $215,500
ROI: 166% in year one
Payback period: 9.2 months

This is the math that closes deals.

Most people overcomplicate getting their first client.

They build fancy websites. Design logos. Write 47 versions of an offer.

But you know what actually works?


Talking to the people who already trust you.

When I started, my first client didn’t come from ads or a cold DM —
it came from a text I sent to someone I’d worked with 3 years earlier.

We hopped on a quick call. I explained what I was doing.

They said, “Perfect timing. I’ve been trying to fix that exact problem.”

Invoice sent. Deal closed.

Sometimes the fastest path to momentum isn’t a new tactic —
it’s a reminder that your next opportunity is already in your phone.


Who in your circle could use your help right now?

Everyone says “do cold outreach.”

But here’s a secret:
Your warm network will outperform cold by 10x — if you actually use it.

Think about it.


You’ve already built trust. You’ve already proven reliability.

They just don’t know what you’re offering yet.

Reach out. Don’t pitch. Just ask:
“Hey, I’ve been helping a few businesses automate [problem].
Know anyone who might want that?”

That one question can open more doors than 1,000 DMs.

So before you chase strangers… talk to people who already believe in you.

Here’s the trap most people fall into:

They tell themselves they’re “not ready yet.”

They watch more tutorials. Buy more courses.

Spend weeks “preparing.”

Meanwhile, someone with half their skillset just messages 20 people they know and lands a deal.

You don’t need a perfect offer. You don’t need a website.

You just need a conversation.

Start with your warm network.

Old coworkers. College friends. Business contacts.

Tell them what you’re working on and who you help.

You’ll be surprised how fast that first “Yes” comes once you stop waiting to be perfect.

After analyzing why clients actually pay $15K+ for automation, I found three categories:

Category 1: Operational Automation

Manual repetitive tasks eating 15-20 hours/week.

Lead qualification, data entry, report generation.

ROI timeline: Immediate. Payback: 2-4 months.

Category 2: Strategic Intelligence

Systems that create business advantages competitors can't replicate.

Predictive analytics, custom dashboards, unified customer profiles.

ROI timeline: 3-6 months.

Payback: 6-12 months.

Category 3: Revenue Enablement

Automation that directly drives sales or customer acquisition. AI-powered lead scoring, automated outreach, conversion optimization.

ROI timeline: 1-3 months.

Payback: 3-6 months.

When you understand which category your solution falls into, pricing becomes obvious.

Operational automation: $3K-$10K

Strategic intelligence: $15K-$40K

Revenue enablement: $20K-$80K+
