I got into this because I love the creative work. But somewhere along the way I became a full-time business manager who occasionally gets to do what I actually love.

70% of my day was emails, invoicing, posting on social media, chasing leads.

The creative work that used to excite me became the thing I squeezed in between admin tasks. On a good day I'd get 2 hours of actual creative time. On most days, zero.

I was living in HoneyBook, Pixieset, ShootProof, doing everything except the thing that makes me money.

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

"Creative professionals who automate their business side report 2x more time for actual creative work. That's the whole point."

-- Sonia Reeves, Creative Business Coach

Then a wedding planner I work with Sent Me a Link

About three months ago, a wedding planner I work with 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. HoneyBook, Pixieset, ShootProof -- 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 HoneyBook, Pixieset, ShootProof. 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

Add It on WhatsApp

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.

My wife set this up for our photographer business last week. Saved about 16 hours this week on stuff we used to do by hand.

8 new clients in the first 29 days. $8,688 in new revenue I would have missed without this.
