How to get your first AI Lead Generation client in 7 days (Must Watch!)

Jimmy Fung shows how to land your first AI lead-gen client by sending a 5-15 minute explainer video with cold outreach instead of offering free work. He claims the video lifts close rates by 15-25% and helped him hit $2.4M in revenue, shifting sales calls from credibility questions to logistics.

In this video, I'm going to be showing you exactly how you can land your first AI client, even if you don't have any results, case studies, or testimonials. Because every guru online tells you that you need to do free work, promise the world, literally do whatever it takes to get that very first client. But that just keeps you stuck for months, maybe even years before you make your very first dollar. But it's actually a new way to get someone to say yes to you and actually pay you before you have any proof at all. And that's exactly what I'm going to be walking you through today, step by step inside this video. And by the way, I've never seen anyone talk about this online. I've been running my own AI business since 2022, hit my first $10,000 month in my first 90 days of starting, and have since made over $2.4 million online. So everything you're about to hear inside this video, it isn't just theory, it's what's actually working right now. So jumping right into it, over the last couple of years of me running my own AI business, I actually made well over $2 million using this exact same method. So again, this isn't theory, this isn't some random bullshit. I've never seen anyone talk about this. The only people who talk about this, they sell it in a course, and I'm literally giving it to you for free. And this is exactly why you should actually listen to me. And most people actually do think that you need case studies, right? And it's actually not your fault for thinking that you need case studies. Common sense tells you that you need all of these reviews, testimonial videos, all these different things in order to get a random stranger on the internet to pull out their credit card and pay you $2,000, $3,000, $4,000. But that's nowhere near the truth. And the very first thing is I want to ask you, why do you think case studies actually work? Well, there's one very simple word. It's called belief. Case studies work because they build belief. In order for a random stranger to pull out their credit card and pay you, they need to believe in you and they need to believe in your process. And they also need to believe in you as a service provider that they believe that you can actually deliver the results that you can, you know, you claim that you can deliver. But what if I told you that there's actually many different ways in order to build belief, and case studies is just one specific method that people can use in order to build belief? Because there's actually a ton of other methods that you can do. So the big question is, how do we actually build belief? And there's actually one strategy that's been working super well. It's working right now, and most people don't even know about it, which is exactly why they fail, which is exactly why they get started and and it takes them half a year, maybe even a year before they even sign their first client. Or worse, some people even give up because they just don't even think that it's possible to get clients without case studies. And what I'm talking about has nothing to do with faking case studies, lying to people. There's nothing like that. This is a completely honest strategy. And this strategy is actually what you want to do. You want to create a short explainer video. So the simple method is if you want to reach out, you're reaching out to people over cold emails, over outreach, you have to understand that the people that you're reaching out to, they don't know who you are yet, and they obviously don't trust you. In fact, most people, they actually right now, they have their guard up so high that they probably actually think by default that you're actually another random online scammer. So it's actually on you to prove them, to go above and beyond and show them that not only you're not an online scammer, but you're actually a source of authority. And the simplest way to do that is by creating a short explainer video. You can actually do that, you know, similar video to what I'm doing right now where I'm literally filming it with, you know, my laptop. You could do it on your phone if, you know, you want to do that as well. And just a simple video where you're explaining who you are, explaining what you do, you're walking them through your own AI lead generation services, and most importantly, you're walking through the process of how your cold emails can actually book calls for them. So the most important thing where a lot of people fuck up is this video is not some random bullshit video where you are, you know, talking about some random bullshit, talking about, you know, where you live or what you did that day. This video should clearly show your process. And if you do this process correctly, you're gonna just build massive authority. And this is a video that's gonna be somewhere between 5 and 15 minutes long, and it's not complex to make as well, right? So even in this diagram, right, the people that you're reaching out to, you're sending a targeted cold email, you're starting a conversation because they're interested in learning more, they book a call with you. And you, in between that process, you want to just make sure you're sending them a video where it explains your process and how you can actually get the results that you claim. And if you do this process the right way, you're just again going to build massive trust and massive belief. I've never seen anyone do this process and don't actually get results, right? Point blank. When I first got started with my own AI business, I just came up with a short explainer video. Um, no one told me to do it, honestly. I came up with this idea because I was just like, well, again, these people don't know me. They probably don't even know what I look like. So it's actually in my interest to just shoot a quick video where I'm walking them through, hey, my name is Jimmy. I run this AI business. Here's exactly what I do for you, right? And that's exactly what I did. And again, you could do this completely on your phone. And the goal of this video is so that you are perceived as authority, a person of authority, the go-to expert inside of your space. If you're selling lead generation services, You need to become the perceived expert in AI lead generation. So again, the prospect, they need to believe that you can actually help them. And authority is what makes people want to actually work with you. And that will obviously lead to happy clients who pays you and stays. So that's really the goal. 3 goals. The first goal is to create massive authority. How you're going to do that is you want to be perceived, be positioned as a subject matter expert if you're selling AI lead generation services. For let's say $3,000. In order for a business owner to pay you $3,000, they actually need to believe that you know what you're talking about. They need to believe that this guy Jimmy, he's the expert at AI lead generation, and if I was looking to pay someone to actually do this for my business, I'm gonna pay this guy because he's the perceived expert at AI lead generation. And essentially you're just gonna become their go-to person. Just think about it like that, right? That's the mindset of how you want to create this video. You just want You want to become the go-to person. And the most important part is inside this video, again, 5 to 15 minute video, you just actually have to make sure you're giving real value. You're not talking about some random bullshit. You're not talking about the weather. You're not talking about where you live. You're not talking about any of those things. There's a process that I'm gonna be walking you through, but that's exactly what you wanna do. And the goal of it is the person watching this video, the viewer, they should actually walk away from that 10 minute video with value. They should not feel like they wasted, you know, 10 minutes of their life. So a lot of people mess this process up because again, they just don't know what to actually say. They don't have a script. They don't have any of these things. And again, right, they just create a video where someone watches it and they walk away literally feeling like you scammed them out of their time. And obviously someone who thinks that, this process is not gonna work, right? So as long as you follow the process that I'm gonna share with you in this video, this is going to work. I guarantee it. Now many people, I know what you're probably thinking. Maybe you're thinking, oh, I never filmed a video of myself, or maybe you're just uncomfortable with listening to your own voice, with seeing how you actually look like on video, and you need to know that's okay. That's fine. Every single person felt the exact same way. I know when I first got started, I actually posted that video on YouTube. So if you scroll back enough, you're actually gonna see a video. I think it's titled How to Make It Unreasonable to Book 10 to 15 Calls, something along those lines, and you can actually find it on my YouTube video. And you will see that that video, I look super young. I filmed at my parents' house. You know, I literally just filmed it off my computer webcam, computer mic, zero editing. And I basically just, you know, raw-dogged it, for lack of better words. And I didn't enjoy doing that process, but I just knew that if I did that process that way, I just make money. I just enjoyed making money more than my dislike for making videos. And you just want to look at this as a skill. The very first time that you make that video, realistically, it's probably not going to be that good, but that's everything else, right? The first time that you rode a bike, you probably fell. The first time you drove, you're probably not that good at driving either. That's just the reality of the situation. And it's the exact same thing with creating videos exactly like this. The first time you do it, it's probably not gonna be that good. You might stutter, you might come off really monotone, you might not know what you're going to say. That's completely normal. So what I will say right now is don't actually expect this to work right away. Don't expect this, don't expect yourself to be perfect, because that's not what it is. And you want to look at this through a process of iteration. You're just gonna have a video, a 3 out of 10 video, which is better than having no video at all. You're gonna start using that, sending that to people who are interested. People are gonna reply back to you, they're gonna ask you a bunch of questions, and you just wanna use that data to iterate, to optimize, to make better versions of your future video. And that's exactly how you wanna go about it. And the best part about this is right now AI actually makes this process 100% easier. So when I first got started with this back in 2022, AI wasn't even a thing. I think ChatGPT just started rolling out around that time. And at that time it just wasn't that good at writing. It wasn't that good at, you know, doing all of these things. So I actually had to create that video manually. But these days AI just makes everything easier. If you don't know what to say, that's completely fine. You can literally go to ChatGPT. You go to Claude, whatever AI that you want to use, and ask it to create you a 10 to 15 minute video where you are explaining your AI lead generation process. That's literally what it is. You could use AI to create talking points. You could create a format of either like a slide similar to what I'm doing right now. You could do a Google Docs, you could do some kind of flowchart, you can even do some kind of talking head video. Choice is yours. Format literally doesn't matter. I tested every single format. Doesn't make a difference at all. And what you could actually do is you literally, you know, you're recording off your computer, you could use a software like Loom. That's the software that I'm using right now to actually record it. And you actually want to aim for doing very little editing. You don't wanna waste your money, you don't wanna waste your time just hiring all these editors, paying hundreds of dollars to edit a video that realistically probably won't even be that good. Again, you're not looking for perfection, you're looking for that 3 out of 10 video, which again is better than not having a video at all. And that's exactly what you wanna do. And if you do this process the right way, again, you're instantly gonna see a lift in 15 to 25% in your closing rate. People are gonna jump on these sales calls, they're already gonna know exactly who you are, they're gonna know what you do, and the only things they'll be talking about with you on that sales call is gonna be logistics. Oh, how long does it take to get started? How much does this cost? Let's get started. How do you take payments? Those are the things that you'll be talking about on your sales calls if you use this video. And if you don't use this video, you're gonna jump onto those sales calls and people are gonna ask you questions like, Are you sure cold emails work? Are you sure that cold emails is legal? Who are you again? I don't trust you. I gotta talk with my partner. I need to think about it. They're gonna hit you with all those things. And the reason they say all of those objections to you on the sales calls is again, they don't believe you. They don't trust you. But by having this video, you're gonna do that, right? When I first implemented that video, that 3 out of 10 video, I instantly saw a lift of like 20% to my close rate because this process just works. And for the private students that I actually work with, I actually, you know, work with them to come up with literally the entire video. I help them put it together, I help them script it, I help them skip basically the entire trial and error process and really just a lot of that iteration process. And the reason why is simply because I've been able to sign my first client without any case studies. Every single person I've personally worked with, they were a college student, they were working a 9-to-5 job, they're an engineer, they're a truck driver, a professor, all these different things. They don't have any case studies and they were still able to sign their first client. And if you're interested in, you know, working with me in order to build this video out, use the link in the description and book a call with me or someone from my team. And we're going to show you exactly how you can actually do this. And we're going to see if there's a good fit to work together to start your own AI lead generation business. And that's actually the first link in the description. But if you want to see an in-depth guide where I fully break down the exact AI prompt the exact example of that video that I created, um, and you just want to try on your own, that's also completely fine. Use the link in the description. I put together a free AI lead generation course where I pull back the curtains and walk you through exactly how to do that.
