In this short promotional conversation, Catherine Bell— a three‑time international bestselling author— explains how she uses highly specific GPT‑powered AI clones to automate large portions of her business and fundraising efforts. She describes measuring the time saved (turning days or weeks of work into minutes), and how directing prospects to her AI clone, combined with a precisely defined ideal client avatar, enabled her to raise $11 million in three weeks. The discussion also covers creating mid‑funnel nurture assets (Facebook/LinkedIn banners, Zoom descriptions, Gamma slide decks) in minutes, and how writing a compelling book can serve as a funnel entry point that feeds the AI clone, further accelerating deals and revenue.
When, when you spoke to it and it talked back to you and you took that and gave it to your VA and everything was bam, bam, bam, bam, bam. I was like, holy shit, she just did a 2 days worth of work in 5 minutes.
I was more like a week's worth of work, but yeah, I actually calculated it. That's how I know.
Really?
Yeah. I calculated out the hours that it would actually take somebody to do it versus how I teach people how to do it, to do the heavy lift.
Okay.
So yeah, you don't have that nailed. Doesn't matter what you do. Everything that GPT is going to spit out is generic. And so for instance, like my 3 books, I'm a 3-time international bestselling author. And from the time that I released those books and all those books direct people to my AI clone, so they go into my clone and have the conversations. I raised $11 million in 3 weeks because 100% I was so specific on who my ideal client avatar is that I literally was able to cut through all the noise and get right in front of those exact investors I wanted at the right moment, saying the exact thing that they needed to hear to have them say, where do I send the money?
Yeah.
Next, mid-funnel nurture sequence. This is really important. And so this allows us to create the mid-funnel nurture sequence literally in minutes. So in minutes, we're able to create all of this from the customer GPT. So we create banners for Facebook and social and LinkedIn. Then we create our Zoom link descriptions. Then we create our actual presentations in Gamma. So the whole thing gets created in Gamma. Our slide deck's done in less than 2 minutes.
One of the things that you will like leading into this that I am going to be walking you guys through, just so you know, is walking you through— I think it would be highly beneficial for you to write a book and I can show you how to do the whole thing. And then we can guarantee you can become a bestselling author. And from that, the writing the book is, you know, whatever it is, what it is. But the whole point being is that it shares a story that's so compelling, and then that leads into your clone, your AI clone. And from there, all your deals, everything are uploaded, and you're going to be able to drive people there, which again was a huge part of how I raised $11 million in 3 weeks.
