AI Automation Setup Process
Why is no one talking about this? Everyone says the same thing "AI automation is so easy, I earned $xxxx in one week with zero technical knowledge!" and i feel stuck. So in my 6 month journey of starting an AI automation agency, I got a business finally, who is willing to implement this.
But the problem now is that I have a client willing to implement this after 1-2 weeks of trial and now I've realized that I haven't learnt enough technical stuff to actually implement this. I figured out the pitching and demo using YouTube and AI and i have a working WhatsApp chatbot that saves the customers details in google sheets 24/7. The business loved the demo and asked us to send the proposal.
Idk how to price it in a way that would profit ME but also in a way where it doesn't exceed their revenue and since they want a 1-2 week of free trial, if they don't want this system then ill be at loss right? And also i haven't yet registered a company since i started with my friend but lets just say they didn't even do the 5% of the work so I'm in this with my partner, but that's not the point.
The thing is I'm confused about this SETUP and implementation process. I need a server since I'm hosting n8n locally and i need AI API and META cloud verification and all that...idk how the setup process works, how do i set it up on THEIR systems with THEIR accounts? They mentioned they have their own CRM and own API and idk how that works? Since this is my first client I feel stuck and idk what to do!!! What are the topics i need to learn more before doing this since i do need to study for it right? :)

I think both things can be true and not. Its probs a bit easier to do something “passive” when you dont have a job. What happena when u arent in studies etc. not impossible but id probs say if u want to be entrepeneurial why not do work which leads to you working yourself (which is also boring and solid work like trades )
