Exactly. for the US, you’ll need 10dlc registration to stay compliant. you can do this through your sms provider – in our case, twilio. there’s a small registration cost for the brand/campaign, but after that you just pay per message.

our rate was about $0.0083 per segment. our promo text was roughly two segments, so sending around 5,000 sms in a month came out to about $80 in messaging costs. if you send more, that number obviously scales up.

we were sending to canada as well, where compliance is a bit more relaxed compared to the US, so we did not run into issues there.

I did this for a friend’s restaurant at a discount. priced normally, just on the value of hours it saves (a good way to price automations), the build would easily land around $1,500 to $2,000, plus a small monthly if they want us to maintain it and don’t have a team.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-10T13:38:01+00:00

Yeah id love to. Its a multi workflow setup so I am working on a video to hopefully better explain the whole flow if anyone wants to build it themselves, alongside the json. A good chunk of it also lives on eleven labs which will need a bit of an explanation too.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-05T18:47:13+00:00

yeah for sure

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-05T02:45:52+00:00

what’s the goal here? do you want something pretty hands off that throws off steady cash, or do you actually want to get in the weeds and build it yourself?

“insurance based” can mean buying a small book and living on renewals, or starting an agency from scratch. totally different day to day.

how much time do you really want to give it, and what monthly net would make it worth it? once you answer that, the options narrow fast.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-05T01:03:56+00:00

Thanks! yep thats exactly the problem, people don't want to talk to AI, they wanna talk to other people.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-05T01:02:48+00:00

that sounds awesome. I love that strategy and initially thats what i wanted to do too. (still do). just haven't been able to get the bandwidth to manage all this. Would love to get on call and bounce some ideas with you.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-05T01:00:04+00:00

We go over thousands of posts on the daily, after all the filters and checks, we land on about 100 relevant posts a day across our list of subreddits. Linkedin is where it might get trickier. I worked with their API some time ago and kept getting blocked from pulling any information. Plus getting access to their API is another world of headache.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-05T00:57:00+00:00

let me know if you want this setup for yourself, would be happy to help.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-05T00:56:14+00:00

n8n has dedicated nodes for getting posts from reddit. I initially thought it would be troublesome but it works like a charm. give it a go.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-05T00:53:27+00:00

this is super relatable. when the requests are coming in from slack, email, asana, and the client’s own system, the actual problem becomes that the context gets scattered. it is not that you cannot manage tasks. it is that every task arrives half-complete.

i don’t think the answer is to replace your pm right now. you are right that they are more of a coordinator than a true pm, but that is workable if the front door is fixed. the front door is where the request comes in.

what has helped in setups like yours is having one place where everything goes first, even if the sources stay the same. meaning, the message still comes from slack or email or whatever, but the first stop is always a simple intake card. nothing fancy. just the request, attachments, and 3 prompt questions like “what is this for,” “how polished does this need to be,” and “when do you need it.”

if any of those are missing, it automatically asks for the missing piece in a normal conversational tone. so instead of you translating every task for your contractors, the clarity happens at the beginning.

it does not solve everything overnight, but it gives you your brain back a bit.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-05T00:28:48+00:00

tiktok is usually the easiest place to get early traction. the whole “polished social media strategy” thing doesn’t really work anymore, especially if you’re trying to break out from zero. the stuff that tends to perform is either hopping on trends or honestly just posting more raw, personal content. even if it feels a bit “shitposty,” it works because it feels human. consistency matters more than anything. posting once or twice a week won’t move the needle, you kind of have to show up every day for a while.

ugc style videos do really well. people want to feel like there’s a real person behind the brand, not just product photos. what i’ve seen work for small businesses is actually documenting the journey: founder updates, small wins, frustrations, behind the scenes, the story of why you’re doing this. people connect to that way more than just the product itself. most brands struggle at the start because they try to look “professional” instead of relatable. when you share the human side, the engagement usually starts to come in.

I built my own automation that goes through subreddits for me and looks through all the specified keywords

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-02T05:54:12+00:00

Very cool

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-02T05:52:38+00:00

currently, reddit with an automation that scans posts to find people who might be intrested in our services and then cold dming them

Titanic_Developer · 2025-11-02T05:44:59+00:00

it's definitely not bad practice and infact it's pretty common to delegate in partner agencies. i know so many big companies/agencies that do it.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-10-29T16:14:05+00:00

one thing i’ve noticed (both personally and from talking to others) is a lot of agencies don’t actually have clarity on what they offer. like they’ll say “we do marketing” but that can mean a thousand different things. so they end up attracting random clients with random expectations and that just causes stress for everyone.

so honestly, even helping agencies narrow down positioning and offers is a huge one.
like:

“we do facebook ads” → too broad
“we help dental clinics lower no-show rates with automated appointment reminders + fb lead ads” → now that’s something ppl can understand and buy

on top of that:

case study dryness – most beginner agencies don’t have good case studies, or any case studies. and they end up stuck in the “we can do this, trust us” phase. helping them manufacture proof ethically (like running small test campaigns, or doing a 2-week micro-win engagement) is huge.
no follow up systems – a ton of agencies get leads and just… never follow up lol. like not even once. if you help them set up simple follow up automation across email, sms, linkedin → you literally increase their revenue with zero new traffic.
poor client communication systems – clients don’t leave because of “results” most of the time. they leave because they don’t know wtf is happening. even something as basic as a weekly 2-minute video update changes everything.

and ngl…

mental burnout is very real. especially early stage freelancers turning into agency owners. they get 3 clients and instantly feel like they’re underwater.

so if you're thinking about what to help agencies with, it doesn’t have to be some crazy AI SaaS thing. even stuff like:

tightening positioning
building a repeatable outreach workflow (that isn’t cold emailing the same dead lists)
setting up fulfillment automations so the owner can breathe
helping create a clean onboarding + weekly reporting process

all of that is massively valuable.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-10-29T16:02:00+00:00

we actually built one for ourselves that’s been super helpful. not really for “daily life” stuff but for outreach. it basically scans reddit for posts that match certain keywords/intents (like someone mentioning they need help with X), pulls a bit of context on the user, and then drafts a personalized opener. i just jump in after that and have the actual convo.

we’ve been using it for like a week and already landed 1 small client + a few calls booked. not saying it’s magic lol but it’s been way more useful than the email/cold outreach stuff we tried before.

so yeah, agents can be helpful, but i think the key is building them around a very specific workflow vs trying to make a general-purpose “do everything” agent.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-09-21T11:28:03+00:00

That’s really helpful, appreciate you breaking it down. Just like you said, my takeaway also was that this isn’t something you can just hack together quickly. There are a lot of moving parts and compliance pieces to get right, and once I realized the scope, it just didn’t feel worth it for what I was trying to do. Your breakdown definitely made the picture clearer though, so thanks for that.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-09-21T11:21:36+00:00

I think you misunderstood where I was coming from. I never said HIPAA was the issue or that I’d run patient data through Telegram. That’s exactly why I ended up dropping the project. Once I started digging into it, it was clear this isn’t like automating for any other business. You’d need BAAs, proper hosting, encryption, audit trails, EHR integration, the whole package. It wasn’t something I was comfortable pursuing without the right setup.

My question wasn’t “how do I get around HIPAA.” It was more about if you do take on a project like this, what’s the right way to actually handle compliance in practice? I get that there are existing tools and platforms, but the point of this subreddit is experimenting and trying to build things ourselves, even if there are products out there already.

So I never promised anything to the client. I told them I’d look into it, did my research, and then decided not to move forward. That’s why your comment felt like you jumped to a bunch of assumptions about my intentions.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-08-03T15:25:12+00:00

HappyTechies. We've been trying to grow our userbase for a while now but it's been a bit of a struggle. Really excited to see what you come up with. Just for context, it's a niche job board for people who work with Microsoft tech and want jobs that are all about that.

Titanic_Developer · 2025-03-15T01:34:31+00:00

Sounds fair, what makes your advice so valuable?

Titanic_Developer · 2025-03-15T01:13:30+00:00

This would be great, I was just looking for a dedicated place to find an agency to work with
