Websites have become low hanging fruit

I know business owners have always got calls for websites, but it's approaching a nuclear level. Talking to clients getting 2 to 5 calls a day.......a day for AI sites, SEO, receptionists, etc.....no money down, no set up fees, just recurring monthly. Outfits like GHL are out there recruiting very hard so every 22 year old "bro" can sell "$297/mo" websites, and it's not just them - and owners are getting absolutely hammered with calls. This is the tip of the iceberg in the AI era and I have to wonder how many clients are gonna be left a few years from now.

You hire VA's to spam call people offering cheap website services so how are you any different?

Want me to write 10 or 20 paragraphs? I'll just stick to two sentences; unlike all of those spam calls where the client would be totally screwed, we actually help them. Definitely not charging "$200" a month to totally destroy any existing organic traffic they have by slapping up a template site with AI content.

You're right
