Launching an AI Automation Agency LIVE! (Complete Guide)

hey guys so in this video I'm going to

take you on a little journey with me on

a journey of launching an AI automation

agency I'm going to do it from scratch

step by step I'll show you everything I

know how to select a niche how to come

up with a solution that you can sell how

to generate leads which um lead

generation techniques I use and the

whole sales process will be covered as

well so I suggest that you take your

notepads because they're will be some

notes to take believe me and let's dive

in also before we start I want you to

know that this video is going to be a

bit different than usually because

usually all the videos are scripted word

by word sentence by sentence this video

is unscripted I have my structure I have

my notes but it is not scripted I

decided to to try and be more authentic

and see where it gets us okay so I also

take an opportunity and introduce myself

because I've been publishing these

videos for a year now and never actually

properly introduced myself so my name is

Bogdan saranchuk that's why the name of

the channel both are I Ukrainian 28

years old and 10 years ago I moved to

Poland around that age and at 18 I

decided to become an entrepreneur and

since then I've tried quite a few things

the first thing was multi-level

marketing and direct sales that was fun

never paid out then I launched my first

company my first business it was leather

goods brand we had offline manufacturing

and I quickly realized how hard it is to

run an offline business so I decided to

switch to online business and opened a

few dropshipping stores standard story

you know Shopify stores AliExpress

shipping to the US and so on then I

entered affiliate marketing industry and

affiliate marketing industry was the

main source of income for me for for

years after that I co-founded the first

startup in my life with two more

co-founders that was review management

sauce for small and medium-sized

businesses and while building that

startup we actually learned how the

whole startup ecosystem Works how the

Venture funding works and we explored

some acceleration programs so that was

very valuable and after that I launched

my second startup that time it was a B2B

wholesale Marketplace for local

retailers also very very valuable

experience but over a year ago I started

exploring AI learning about Ai and

currently that's the biggest passion of

mine I run this YouTube channel which is

about AI Iran and AI automation agency

you can check it out at boss. agency and

basically the whole video is going to be

around that agency okay let's start so

this is my uh AAA let's call it that AAA

launch plan and before we dive into uh

branding and lead generation there is

some homework to

do and the first task is to improve your

skill set and become an expert right so

in order to sell your solution in order

to sell your services you must be an

expert in that field so before learning

about chat Bots and mag.com automations

it would be great to understand the

foundations right what is neural

networks what is llm GPT and for that my

favorite uh YouTube channels are Andre

KY so unbeli ably smart guy and this

particular video intro to large language

models is the best video on large

language models you can find so

definitely check it out if you haven't

and the second channel is this one so uh

it's called three blue one brown and

this playlist is also the best on

YouTube on understanding neural networks

what is GPT and so on so just watch this

playlist and uh some videos from andj

carpati and I think the minimum

requirement of understanding foundations

would be done then the second step would

be to learn how to build chatbots and

how to build automations right for that

I'm sure you know this guy there is Liam

otley very very smart guy with a lot of

valuable videos a lot of tutorials but

apart from Liam there are similar

channels and there are actually

thousands of small channels like mine

and they provide a lot of value nobody

knows about them and let me just show

you a few including mine so there is um

for example Brandon a lot of tutorials

there is uh tus media and there is my

channel also a lot of stepbystep

tutorials and when you start watching

all these videos YouTube will suggest

more and more so you will have a lot of

knowledge base you know to to use in

order to understand how to build

chatbots and provide automations another

way to learn how to build chatbots and

agents and so on is to go through the

tool list so here I have a toolkit with

the most important and the most popular

tools for AI agencies and just go

through each of them and learn how to

use them you can go to Voice flow and uh

look up you know for voice flow

tutorials then for bpress tutorials than

for relevance tutorials and so on until

you know how to use them and which kind

of results you can achieve with all

these tools so that's it foundations

then chatboard building and Automation

and the last step here would be

development skills in my opinion there

are two options the first one is that

you are a developer and you know how to

code the second one is that you have a

partner who knows how to code and the

third one would be that you don't know

how to code but you still want to start

an AI automation agency well in my

opinion it is not going to be the most

competitive one because you wouldn't be

able to provide any custom Solutions you

wouldn't be able to build a package of

solutions for the specific Niche so in

my case I don't know how to code I'm not

a developer and my background is in

marketing in sales in business

development but I'm lucky enough to have

a partner uh his name is Nick he is a

full stock developer with 15 years of

experience and this is not our first

business together we know how to work

together we we know how to build

products from scratch and we are capable

of delivering pretty much anything any

service our customers require the second

step is Niche research or maybe you go

with the general approach but I would

say that the general approach is only

applicable if you have a big volume of

inbound traffic otherwise I would go

with the niche approach because when you

do outbound sales when you do outbound

lead generation it is much easier to

focus on a specific Niche on a specific

problem that you can solve than you know

targeting everyone and uh focusing on

everything the best way to to be an

Insider that means that you work for a a

specific business industry like legal

firm and you see that in your workflow

you have a problem which can be solved

with an AI solution then you start an

agency and you go to your fellow law

firms and sell that solution to them

that would be the best case because you

know people from that industry you know

you experience firsthand the problem it

is easier for you to communicate with

them and to sell it but most of us are

not uh insiders so how to analyze the

and research the niches I would pick

five niches that you think are the best

fit and I would focus on pain points not

on desire not on good to have things

because pain is much stronger trigger

than than good to have things so

researching those industry I use

different channels such as YouTube

Google just search for keywords as an

Insider like how to become the best

lawyer in my city and then you then you

see which kind of advice you can find

online and while learning you will

understand which kind of problems people

have in that industry I would use chat

GPT just to brainstorm which kind of

problems they can face uh back and forth

I'm sure you know how to use chat GPD

and then get a clear map of the business

processes and pain points so in my case
