    In this solo episode, I break down how to build an AI business that gets stronger every time a new model drops instead of getting wiped out. I explain why wrapper apps, prompt packs, one-off automations, and "tool guy" positioning keep resetting to zero, and why AI assessments and AI concierge retainers compound with every release. By the end, you'll have a litmus test to run your current offer through and a simple loop for turning every model release into a reason to call your clients.

    In this solo episode, I explain why the AI automation agency model is already dead, and why it's following the exact same commoditization curve I watched play out in the Amazon FBA space from 2020 to 2025. I break down the four rules of a commodity market, why business owners don't actually want automation, and the two offers, the AI tools assessment and the AI concierge, that let your value go up as the models get better instead of down. By the end, you'll know exactly why to drop the word "automation" from your offer this week and what to replace it with.
