Most AI podcasts talk about what's possible. Build With AI shows you how it's done, live. Each episode, host Corey Ganim brings on entrepreneurs and operators who share their screen and build real AI automations, workflows, and tool setups right in front of you. No boring slides. Nothing that hasn't been battle-tested. You'll watch actual implementations get built from scratch so you can follow along and do the same in your business. If you're a non-technical entrepreneur who wants to put AI to work without becoming a developer, hit play and build along with us.

    How to make $10K/month selling AI services (step by step)
    Aug 11 2026
    In this solo episode, I walk through the exact three-stage roadmap I used to build my AI services business past $10K a month in under a year: the free mini assessment, the paid assessment, and the AI concierge model. I break down what each stage actually looks like on a call, how to price them (including the exact math that gets you to 10K/month), and the three biggest ways this business breaks if you're not careful. I also hand you my AOA framework - Audit, Optimize, Automate - which is literally how I turn a client's manual process into a Claude skill during every concierge engagement. By the end of this episode, you'll have the full playbook for landing your first AI services client and scaling to recurring revenue.Grab all the free resources mentioned in this video: https://corey-ganim.kit.com/6a4bf70e48Join our AI Operator Academy Community where we help entrepreneurs start and scale a profitable AI services business: https://www.skool.com/aioperatoracademy/aboutTimestamps00:00 Overview of the three-stage roadmap to 10K/month01:15 Stage 1: What a free mini assessment actually is03:00 Stage 2: The paid assessment (3-7 tools vs. 1)04:30 Stage 3: The AI concierge recurring revenue model06:00 The AOA framework: Audit, Optimize, Automate07:00 Why unlimited Voxer access is high perceived value07:45 The math: How many clients you need to hit 10K/month09:00 Who to sell this to (ideal client profile)10:00 Action step: Text 10 business owners today11:00 Three ways this business breaks (and how to avoid them)12:00 How the free assessment call actually runs14:00 How the paid assessment works and quantifying ROI17:30 How AI concierge calls run using the AOA framework19:30 Pricing strategy: Raise by $250 every time you get a yes20:30 Recap and where to get the free resource libraryKey PointsThe business runs in three stages: a free mini assessment to get testimonials, a paid assessment ($500-$2,000) to prove deeper value, and AI concierge (done-with-you consulting) for recurring revenue.The free mini assessment is intentionally small: a 15-minute call to identify one pain point, followed by a 5-10 minute call to prescribe one tool or workflow. No implementation, no building — just a roadmap. Only do this for your first one to three contacts to earn testimonials.The paid assessment is "the free assessment on steroids" — a 45-60 minute discovery call that surfaces 3-7 opportunities, scored on an effort-versus-impact matrix to find the high-impact, low-effort quick wins. Priced at $500 to start, with $1,000 as the sweet spot and $2,000 as the ceiling once you have proof.AI concierge is where the real money is: two 45-minute strategy calls a month plus unlimited Voxer access, priced $1,000-$2,000/month, using the AOA framework (Audit the manual process, Optimize it, Automate it into a Claude skill inside Claude Cowork).The math to 10K/month: 10 AI concierge clients at $1,000/month, 7 at $1,430/month, or 5 at $2,000/month — all before counting a dime of assessment revenue.The best clients are owner-led service businesses doing $3-10M+ in revenue with repetitive manual work, visible bottlenecks, and budget — they already know they need AI, they just don't know where to start.The three ways this breaks: doing free implementation work instead of stopping at the roadmap, letting concierge calls turn into unlimited ad hoc Zoom sessions instead of a fixed cadence, and building a custom tool stack for every client instead of standardizing on Claude Cowork and Claude skills.Raise your price by $250 every time a prospect says yes — if someone pays $1,000, pitch the next person $1,250, and keep climbing until people start saying no.SaneBox – the AI email triage tool most commonly prescribed during assessments to cut hours of inbox time - https://www.sanebox.comAI Tools Assessment Report template – the free consulting-style report template used to deliver paid assessment roadmaps - https://audittemplate.aiVoxer – the walkie-talkie app used to offer unlimited AI concierge access with a 12-business-hour response window - https://voxer.comClaude Cowork – the tool used to build and standardize Claude skills for every AI concierge client - https://claude.aiFIND ME ON SOCIAL X/Twitter: https://x.com/coreyganim Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coreyganim/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreyganim/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coreyganim

    In this episode, you watch me sell then fulfill a real AI assessment from start to finish. I confirm a discovery call with a custom home builder, uncover his back office bottlenecks, and build a HyperAgent bot that analyzes the transcript and prescribes a simple fix. I demo the recommendation in person, close him on the spot for a paid NotebookLM pilot, then use HyperAgent again to build and QA the entire deliverable. By the end, you'll see the full sales-to-fulfillment loop for a real AI services client, agents and all.

    In this solo episode, I use GPT-6 Astra inside Codex to fully automate the two heaviest steps of my $1,000 AI Tools Assessment offer: the pain point analysis and the client report build.
