Every day was the same grind. Wake up at 5:30am. Drive to the job site. Do the work. Come home. Then spend 3 hours at the kitchen table chasing leads, following up on estimates, updating Jobber, QuickBooks, Google Business Profile, trying to invoice yesterday's jobs.

My wife started calling my laptop my "second marriage."

I didn't start this business to stare at screens until midnight. I started it because I'm good with my hands. Because I like building things. Because I wanted to be my own boss.

Instead I became my own secretary, my own marketing department, and my own collections agency. All unpaid.

Something had to change. Or I was going to quit.

"The trades businesses winning right now aren't working harder. They're delegating to AI the same way agencies have been doing for two years."

-- Mike Torres, Field Service Business Consultant

Then a buddy who does flooring Sent Me a Link

About three months ago, a buddy who does flooring sent me a link.

He said: "Just text it on WhatsApp. Tell it what to do. Like you're texting a coworker."

I thought he was full of it.

But I was tired. And curious. So I opened WhatsApp, found the contact, and typed:

I stared at my phone for a solid 30 seconds. Then I typed another command. And another. Each time, it just... did what I asked. No setup wizard. No onboarding call. No 45-minute YouTube tutorial.

I just told it what to do and it did it.

Here's What It Actually Is

It's an AI employee you text on WhatsApp.

You give it your logins. It controls your apps like a real employee. Jobber, QuickBooks, Google Business Profile -- all of it. It logs in, does the work, and sends you a summary.

It's not a chatbot. It's not a template. It doesn't give you "suggestions."

It actually DOES the work.

You text it "send follow-up emails to everyone who got a quote this week" and 20 minutes later you get a screenshot showing it's done. With the receipts.

You Have Two Options Right Now

Option A: Close this tab. Go back to toggling between Jobber, QuickBooks, Google Business Profile. Keep grinding 12-hour days. Keep telling yourself you'll hire help "eventually."

Option B: Text an AI employee on WhatsApp, tell it what to do, and see what happens. Cancel anytime.

Your call.

How It Works (2 Minutes to Set Up)

1

Scan a QR code. It shows up as a contact. Takes 30 seconds.

2

Tell It What to Do

Type plain English. "Send follow-ups to this week's leads." It understands.

3

It Does the Work

Logs into your apps, completes the task, and sends you a summary with screenshots.

Wait this actually works? I told it to find realtors in sacramento who flip houses and email them our pricing and 33 minutes later I had a list of 13 realtors with names, emails, and phone numbers. $9/week is insane.

My friend set this up for their painting contractor business last week. It found 21 leads on day one that we never would have found ourselves.
