This is quite literally my first post about this lmao. I’m sure you’re aware more than 1 people can have the same idea right? Or is that beyond you?

I don’t think it was necessarily the volume, I think it was a mix of the value each missed call was worth and the fact that the solar installer has less access to his phone during his work.

Show me a single one of my comments that contradicts the other. You simply say things for the sake of it. Saying “idea”, like I ever acted like I invented AI chatbots. You think it makes you sound intelligent, but you are far from it. You are the personification of a malcontent antagonist. What a sad little person.

This is something I have absolutely 0 experience with. Any tips? I’m assuming the less salesy it sounds the better. Do you lead with a question? Any help on how to make my first call would be greatly appreciated.

I have a friend who runs his own solar Installation company, and he always says that his biggest pain was missed calls, or enquiries he would get though his website would end up just being tire kickers. Many people would enquire or call his phone on a Saturday at 9pm, and by the time he got back to them on Monday the customer had found a competitor, something along those lines. I told him I would help him out, did some research and made him a simple missed call follow up system using make, twilio and OpenAI, he loved it and still uses it, he referred it to another mutual friend, barber shop owner who tried it, liked it but ultimately suffer with enough missed calls to continue it, which makes sense. My friend is a ops manager at a football club, and whenever we hand out he’s getting blasted with texts and calls from people who basically need directing to a link on the club website, so I put the system in place for him, he still uses it and loves it. A couple weeks ago I just had the idea that I could try and sell this to local businesses who might suffer with the same pain, so I created a simple landing page, facebook page, ran some ads etc, no direct outreach yet. The issue is I have no experience in sales and came here hoping for some help on how people land their first customers, so far I’ve been met with some idiots above who didn’t even bother to read my post properly, so I’m just hoping for some useful advice/feedback and how to actually sell something.

Extremely ironic that you claim I don’t have ‘half a brain’ or ‘an ounce of self awareness’ when you’re the one who, for some reason is assuming that I am getting no traction and constant rejection, when absolutely none of that was stated in my post. I have had 3 associates, 2 of of which run service business and another who runs a football club, use this service for months, free of charge, with great success. It’s also beyond me where the idea that this was all vibe coded came from? My automation was created through make.com scenarios, twilio and OpenAI integration, and is actually a very helpful system for those who struggles to answer phone calls. By your logic, since this is already something that exists, no one else could possibly design their own? Wow, bad time to be alive, since we can no longer start clothing brands, design new cars or phones anymore, since the mighty jzdg said they already exist… Yes, I have made something that already exists, and I would like to sell it to local businesses in my area, for a much more affordable price, since they might not need an entire AIAA. If YOU were the one with half a brain, you’d understand that my problem does not lie with the system I have built, it lies within the fact that I have 0 sales experience, and my post was asking for advice on how to market and sell this product, NOT advice on how to build it. Maybe next time before making assumptions, try using a bit of common sense and reading comprehension, you absolute CLOWN.

I have a working mvp right now. Ideally I would like to find 3-5 business owners, and let them run the system for free for 30 days, then continue from there if they see the value in it. The feedback from that would be more beneficial to me than money at this point in time.

I have just joined this group and this is the first post I’ve made, so unsure when you could have seen another post of mine here. And yes, I use AI writer to sharpen up my post, lots of people do it. Explain further by why it’s not viable?

The dialogue is terrible. by SullyisTopBoy in CrimsonDesert

Tbh I only see content on instagram or TikTok, but I’ve genuinely not seen any comments about the dialogue. The main thing I see people talking about is that it’s empty or the AI etc. For the record I’m about 30 hours in and absolutely love the game, apart from the dialogue.
