49 days until our 2nd annual 12 hour tread event to raise awareness of stroke and heart disease.

Last year, we raised $16,000.

This year, our goal is $75,000!

@Pv @AjOsborne1 We actually had a customer ask for a representative this week to tell us how good of an experience he had with our AI agent. He said it was the best interaction he’s had.

Now, not everyone feels like that 😅 but encouraging to know some do

@AjOsborne1 We’ve integrated Claude so it can read all calls transcripts, provide a summary of what each rep did well, what they could improve, and teach them what other reps did well that they can incorporate. It’s also analyzing their sales script adherence

[Brandon Hicks @realbhix]

@AjOsborne1 We’re having great success with the AI Agent handling all calls as well. We trained it specifically for transitioning a property we closed on 2 weeks ago and it’s doing a great job with collecting payments, etc. The agent actually just closed its first customer the other day.

this Claude bot finds local businesses with ugly websites or none at all, rebuilds and their mobile apps, then emails the owner a postcard...on autopilot.

here's how agencies can use this system and land clients:

- scrapes every local business in a city in real time
- filters by review count + rating + last update date + site quality
- pulls the strongest photos and copy from their Google Maps listing
- samples the brand palette from the business's own visual identity
- AI rebuilds it into a brand-matched website + mobile app
- writes a postcard quoting a real reviewer + what they loved
- mails it to the owner by first name with a preview QR

every step from discovery to brand-matching to outreach is automated.

reply "GUIDE" + RT and I'll send you a free guide so you can build this too

@Storage_Venture What did you do to market the units while building them? We just broke ground on 28 covered units that should be available in 5-6 weeks.

[Brandon Hicks @realbhix]

@Storage_Venture I’ve tended to get poor quality leads through marketplace. Have you had better luck??
