[@PashaV93]

Hi Liam, this video is great! It has given me the push i needed to start something of my own. I share your thoughts about AI and the potential for the next 10 years and I definitely want to be part of that. I have 2 questions for you:1) what specific AI appls or industries you see as having the most potential for innovation and growth? 2) what advice can you give me since im just about to start in the AI space? I know your very busy and i would appreciate if can answer these questions for me. You can either do it here or inbox me, i joined your online group already. Thank you in advance, like you said in this video hope one day we can cross path. Much success 🙏🏾

I don't normally watch youtubers in relation to making money online because of the scams and courses but for the first time I have actually sat through 1 hr 30 mins gaining the best knowledge from these gems. This is REAL value. Thanks Liam for your transparency this is a well put together video🙏

[@baskarprasanna7453]

Good evening sir.

[@leadgenjay]

Great video man. Just to add, for those diving into AI consulting, it's smart to focus on niche markets where AI can solve specific pain points, as this often leads to higher conversion rates and a more targeted value proposition.

[@nwinburn]

Liam, one of my favorite Earl Nightingale quotes is: “Your rewards in life are in direct proportion to your service". Dude, you are literally changing people's lives, and I wish nothing for you but a life full of abundance in every aspect of it. Thank you so much for all the effort you put into this project. The world is a better place just by you being in it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!!!

Liam, please make the next video about leads to clients closing. As, we are now familiar with AAA, but we need a video about leads and client closing.

agreed, knowing more about finding and closing clients would be really helpful.

Hi Muhammad, this is aimed at introducing people outside my core audience to AI business, I have a bunch of great stuff coming for my AI agency owners don’t worry!

[@Lordoftheflamesissketchy]

@@LiamOttley Thanks, I have been literally in the contract stage with many business but they all seem to fall apart last minute even when using your templates, a video on this would be gold. I would also like to discuss some other things on your discord server in regards to the exact best solutions for recruitment agencies in Australia etc. 👍Great video btw.

[@jennifersilver3517]

THANK YOU so much for doing this. I follow Adrian Saenz. He teaches courses in EVERYTHING for free but all of the courses are in Spanish so it's harder for me to follow. Thank you so much!

I'm just finding you and have subscribed and liked this. I'm highly impressed with your maturity to extend your business knowledge in this format. Thank you. I will continue to listen.

[@glendalizrodriguez3148]

Thank you! Appreciate the depth of information and value you shared!

Probably the most genuine video I watched on the subject.

[@SPEAKItSaaSMedia]

OMG! I subscribed to your channel awhile ago. I knew I needed to keep an eye on you, cause you sounded like you knew "your shit", as you put it! So glad I took time to watch this video! I just started a SaaS agency, but want to do more with AI. You've given me a path and another skill to teach kids along with my specific goal setting and detailed planning program! I have a lot to learn, but I am soooo stoked!! Thanks for all you've done to help the rest of us make progress and make a difference. Thank you, Liam! Looking forward to meeting you in the not too distant future!

Such a great opportunity in this moment in time to learn about this kind of stuff. I think the automation side of things is where there’s a lot of value for businesses, mapping out your processes and then connecting things automatically to create and generate the normally manual tasks. Great video Liam 👏👏

[@binosmithart132]

Ka mau te wehi Liam...Awesome Liam. Good to see a Kiwi Boy from Whangarei doing the mahi and sharing that knowledge to the World.

I'm grateful I found you and your content. I'm hoping for your success beyond imagination. I commit myself to reach a level where I can be an substancial component of your AAA Accelerator or I can be a potential business partner.

[@12567NoYouCannot]

@@LiamOttley; Dear Liam, I just found your video, I am sitting in a hospital right now, as I write this - Looking at my daughter Gabriella, who is battling Leukemia for the second time in her life! I am sitting here Looking at her and wondering about Our future! Just last night I was sobbing (crying) uncontrollably sitting in front of her in this hospital bed, feeling broken and defeated - Yesterday I lost the Key to my old Car and I have NO money to Get a Locksmith to replace the Key. This is the same vehicle I use for transportation for all medical appointments. I feel as if the Sky is falling on me, piece by piece. I have NO job, (no-income), but also cannot leave my daughter unattended to Go look for a Job. My daughter's Special needs and disabilities began when She was a toddler; I was forced to Stop working to become her Caretaker! Everyone that I knew - abandoned us - including her father & my own family. It made my life harder and harder - and We got hated and Discriminated against by everyone and everywhere, for just being poor. We got marginalized by Society as a whole. I was a happy, friendly, and caring person who used to help others all the time - but now I am afraid to trust people because of all the backlash that I faced as a Single mother of a Special needs Child. On Jan 1st, 2024, I introduced One of your Videos to a young lady; I am hoping that she will follow your lead, and I will Write Down notes from this Video. I am Not Sure where it will lead me, but I hope that it will take me Somewhere in LIFE and that I will not be in this Situation forever.

[@12567NoYouCannot]

@@LiamOttley; Dear Liam, I hope I can become One of those Success Stories. I will write down this information and Start Working on it. The universe knows that my Situation is Critical right now, after being the Single mother of a Special Needs child for so many years and having No Support whatsoever! Life became increasingly difficult for me and my child. Poverty gave people the Right to Discriminate against us and look Down on Us; as if we were lepers or had a contaminating disease or something of the sort. The amount of Rejection that we faced is Surreal to me; as I never in life treated Anyone with that amount of disrespect for the simple reason of them Not having anything; but it happened to Us. I truly Hope that Our lives Can Change for the better.

[@moonknight4659]

SO HOW HARD WAS IT FOR YOU TO LEARN THIS? I ALREADY MADE AN AGENT FROM HIS OTHER VIDEO BUT MAN THE CODING IS A BITCH EVEN IF ITS NON CODING YOU STILL NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND WHY. IM TRYING BUT MAN

Exactly what you're feeling right there, is the hardest part to get through. Just put your head down and push through. You got to set goals that help you get past the slumps. @@moonknight4659

[@TaysMedia]

I've been running my own SMMA/Media Production business for the last 18 months and am now directing my attention and efforts to the AI agency method - in large part thanks to your videos. I'm fully aware of the gap that I need to bridge - in such a short space of time, there have been leaps and bounds made in AI - but it's better to start now than leave it until later, right? I'm 1 week in. I'd love to be able to comment further down the line on one of your future videos and say "this is living proof that Liam's hard yards helped pave the way for someone like me" and I'm sure i will. Even though I'm still connecting all of the pieces that is the AI puzzle, I'm excited for what's to come. Cheers for all you do mate, you're a top one g.

[@CreativePunk5555]

It's a tough path regardless of what you want to do in the AI world. Hard work, grit, passion and determination play a key role in anything. I feel having a community and someone to hold you accountable is def a great step in regards to changing a career or entering something new or just building an AI solution. Most people feel this is an easy way for the side hustle or a huge payday but this is like every other thing out there - you have to put in the work and not half-ass anything. I'm currently building a couple web applications that will soon be apps using AI integration and it's super fun but a lot of work. My biggest challenge was finding individuals that are interested in working on the project using AI along with just some experience in AI. Even when paying someone, it's hard to find that individual with the same AI mentality, enthusiasm and work ethic. But I feel this whole AI solution based agencies, SAAS companies, etc will continue to evolve - but the road and process is beyond fun and exciting.
