Claude + Google Maps = $30,000/Mo
559 segments
Claude on its own won't make you money
because a generic AI is complete
But Claude plus Google Maps
can definitely make you $30,000 a month
this year. When I first started my $25
million AI agency Gym Members Now, I was
searching on Google for hours just to
find four to five businesses that looked
decent. Then I'd have to copy all of
their information and then paste it into
a spreadsheet from Google. And this
would take me days, and those were days
and hours that some of my competitors
beat me to reaching out to some of the
businesses that I had my list. But now,
you can build a list of hundreds of
quality leads in less than an hour. I'm
going to show you how to do it and also
give you the cheat code to find the best
possible clients you can reach out to.
This is exactly what I'd pay to have
when I first started, so let's get into
it. So, the first thing we're going to
want to do is connect Claude to Google
Chrome. And so, obviously you need to
use Google Chrome, and then you need to
go to claude.com/claude-for-chrome.
So, that's what I'm on right here. All
you have to do is click add to Chrome,
and then what it's going to do is it's
going to download it. You want to
authorize it right here, and then from
there, all you need to do is pin it to
your extension bar. I'm going to click
on it, and then I'm going to click I
understand and I I accept the terms, and
then click next, next. And now from
here, Claude is connected to Google
Chrome. It's literally that simple. And
what you want to do from here is you
want to pick the industry that you're
going to actually go after. When it
comes to picking the industry you're
going to go after, it's very important
that you pick one that you're going to
be able to have a lot of success in
while not having to work too hard. And
so, what I went ahead and did is I
actually built a rubric that you can
upload into Claude that will do the
research for you, and it's an eight-page
document. This is it right here. And so,
what I went ahead and did is did it for
roofers, but as you can see, it pulled
all of this. And really, the four things
you want to look for is proof of
concept, meaning you want to have other
people making money doing it. You want
the total adjustable market to be
greater than 10K, and you want it to be
high ticket, and then in addition to
that, you want it to be a growing
market. And so, as you can see here,
roofers checked all those boxes, and it
did a lot of other additional work. And
so, what I built is this thing, which is
a skill within Claude that's connected
to Google Chrome. And what it will do is
it will crawl a city based off the
market you're going after. All you
literally have to do is tell it the
industry you're going after and the city
that you want it to do the research in.
And so, as you can see here, it pulled
all of this information and it gave me
all of this for roofers. And then I did
it again for gyms, because that's the
industry that I go after. You can see
all of the gyms that I was able to pull.
And now, what I'm going to show you is
just proof that this actually works. Cuz
this is literally what I did to get my
first customer. So, this is a guy named
Wade Wilburn, the owner of a gym called
Exclusive Fitness. And then this is
Patrick, the owner of a gym called
Greatness Fitness. And so, if I just go
to their pages, this is Exclusive
Fitness and I hit message. What you're
going to see is this was me back in 2019
DMing them on Facebook after I did this
research. And if I just scroll through
this, you're going to see that I was
able to book a call with them. And then
from there, obviously, I was able to
sign them up and that's why Wade, right
here, gave me a testimonial. And then
obviously, if I go over here to
Greatness Fitness, which is the other
business, and I click on message, you
can see here back in 2019, the exact
same thing. Where I was able to book an
appointment with them and ultimately get
them to become a customer of mine. If I
just go back here, you're going to see
that he ended up giving me a
testimonial. My point in showing you
this is that if you do this, you're
going to be able to save yourself a ton
of time and you simply can just reach
out to these businesses on Facebook and
do that. But before I show you what you
should sell after you provide this, let
me show you proof that I've actually
generated over 25 million dollars with
my AI agency. Okay, so if I just go over
here to my payment processor, what
you'll be able to see is just right
there on July 14th, we collected
$43,000. If I go to the last 12 weeks,
you can see we generated $743,000.
So, I can only show you the last 12
months on there. So, now if I go over to
my payment processor, what you can see
is these are all of the invoices we've
actually run through that payment
processor, exported, cuz I can't show
you anything past the 12 months. This is
what we've run through it. This is
exported from a payment processor called
Alan that we used, where we ran 839
grand through this one. We ran 400 grand
through this one. We ran 72,000 through
this one. We ran a lot through this one,
4.8 million right there. And then on
this one, we ran 682,000.
And then this one we ran a lot through
as well, 3 million. Right? Now, here's a
Stripe account. We used use Stripe
before we switched to the payment
processor I just showed you, where you
can see we did 6.5. On this one we did
947, 782, 1.35, 90, and then 945, and
523,000.
And the reason why I'm making this
content, and the whole purpose behind
all of this, is that I'm looking to
eventually sell my business, because my
broker told me that if I can help around
three to four other people do exactly
what I've done, but in different
verticals, instead of selling for a 4x
multiple, I could roll those businesses
into a portfolio, and then sell for
potentially an 8 to 15x multiple, which
would ultimately take my business from
being worth around $5 million, which is
what I got it valued at by a company
called Value Buddy, to instead being
worth 10 to 15 million dollars for
literally no additional work other than
me helping other people do what I've
already done, which is the one thing I
know more about than anything else, cuz
it's what I've done for the last eight
years. [music] So, if you're serious
about building this, you can apply to
work with me directly through the link
below on this video. We'll have a
one-to-one conversation. I'll be able to
determine whether I think you're a good
fit or not. And if you are, great. If
not, no big deal. And so, the cheat code
that you want to make sure you do is you
don't want to just keep reaching out to
a bunch of independent businesses. The
reason why is because the mistake that
almost everyone makes with a tool like
the skill that I just showed you is they
pull every single business in the city,
and then they go as wide as possible,
and they just add in all of these random
businesses. But that only gets them a
list of random businesses. So, some of
them are not going to have the money to
pay you, and others don't even need your
services, and the rest are in completely
different markets. So, it's just a waste
of time. So, what ends up happening to
most people is they burn out before you
find someone who's actually going to be
willing to pay you for your offer. And
so before starting to build your list,
you need to know exactly who you want to
find. And you need to search for
franchises. In 2019, I landed one
client, Jeff. He's an Anytime Fitness
owner, and he owned 12 Anytime
Fitnesses. I got him very good results,
and he'd never seen any results like
this. And then he went and he talked
about me on his franchise advisory
board. And that one conversation made me
acquire over 200 gym owners in a very
short period of time. one day to the
next, I had more clients than I could
literally handle. And that's why
franchises are a cheat code. They don't
compete with each other, so they aren't
afraid to help each other get better
results. They sit on advisory boards,
they're in private groups, and they meet
up at conferences all the time. So if
you give a really good owner in a
franchise group great results, he'll
literally just end up referring you to a
ton of other people that run the same
exact business. So here's what you're
actually going to do with Claude to
ensure that you find these businesses.
And so if I go back over here and go
back to Claude, I built another skill
that does exactly this. And so if I just
scroll down here, as you can see, right,
I I put in the franchise gap outreach
for gyms in Louisville, Kentucky. And
now what it ended up pulling is it will
build the list of businesses that are
franchises that have very low reviews.
And then it will also create the
outreach message you want to send for
day one, day three, day seven, and day
14 based on their reviews and how they
rank compared to their competition. So
it literally pulls the franchises that
have the lowest Google reviews and then
finds their competitors that have higher
Google reviews, and then it leverages
data in the follow-up and in the reach
out to then pique their interest. And so
if you want this skill, just comment
below. I'll easily build this and send
them all over to you if you want them.
If I now just scroll up back on 2019
here, all of these people I'm doing
testimonials with are Anytime Fitnesses
because my first three customers were
independent gyms, and then I ran an
email blast and and reach out to all of
them on Facebook to get them to become
my customer. And then what ended up
happening is I ended up getting invited
by Jeff. This is Jeff and this is me to
speak in front of over 50 Anytime
Fitness owners at a conference that they
were having in New Orleans back in 2019.
This is pre-COVID. The only reason I was
able to do this is because I got an
independent gym owner results and then I
marketed those results to them and reach
out to them on Facebook, got them as
customers and then from there, literally
this one customer was able to help me
acquire so many more. And as you see
these posts, Club 141, Club 142, Club
143. These are all Anytime Fitnesses if
you read this. And I had this filtered
back to 2019. And so now if I just
refresh this and show you what it looks
like now, I'm still doing the exact same
thing, literally right now. So now the
question is what do you actually sell to
these people? And there's a very
specific AI system that every single one
of these businesses needs to be able to
grow. It's a system that they've never
been sold before, typically. And I know
it because this is the exact same system
that I sell in my agency Gym Owners Now
that's generated over $25 million. And
so what I want you to do is picture a
business's customers as a car, just
driving down a highway toward that
business. The path is completely empty,
but along the highway, there's seven
different exits that all lead the
customer to a competitor. Each exit is a
problem the business has that gives the
customer a reason to pull off before
they ever even arrive at the business.
So what this system does is it just
closes each of those exits, so each
prospect can go straight into the
business and become a client. Now what
I'm going to do is I'm going to walk you
through these seven problems and how the
system solves each and every single one
of them. Okay, so exit number one is the
page never loaded. And so what I mean by
this is their website. And so on
average, what Google's data shows is
that local brick-and-mortar businesses,
over 50% of them fail the Google load
page speed test. If a website takes
longer than 5 seconds to load, 90% of
the traffic just leaves. If it takes
longer than 3 seconds, over 50% of the
traffic leaves. In addition to that,
these businesses, if it does load quick,
their websites are not optimized for a
phone. They're built for somebody that's
on a desktop computer. And so have you
ever gone to a website and ended up on
it, but you were on your phone and you
could tell it was built for a desktop,
and you just bounced. The data shows
that on average, 78% of people that
experience going to a local business on
a phone that's built for a desktop just
leave and then find a competitor. Then,
in addition to that, most of these
businesses' websites, they have a
contact form. Have you ever seen a
contact form that says "Contact us"?
What the data shows is that that is the
lowest converting form on a website. And
so, what we do instead of that is we
make sure that the page loads in less
than a second. We make sure that the
page is optimized for desktop and mobile
users. And then, in addition to that, we
make a form with a promotion on it, not
a contact us form, but a promotion that
it incentivizes the person on the page
to give their information, cuz that's
the whole point of a website. And by
doing that, we see businesses' websites
increase in conversion by over 1,000%.
We'll literally have clients whose
websites are generating one to two leads
a month. We change their website, they
start generating over a dozen leads,
sometimes over 30 leads a month just by
making those simple changes. And so, the
second exit is I forgot they existed.
And so, what this is is the majority of
businesses are sitting on a database of
leads, of people that gave them their
information or were past customers at
some point, and they don't ever follow
up with them. And so, what the data
shows is that on average, it takes six
attempts to turn a lead back into a
customer. And on average, staff and
business owners at local businesses
reach out 1.3 times. And so, what we do
is we plug our AI into their database
and reach out to them via text and call.
And by doing this, we're able to get a
lot of people coming through their door
without them having to spend any money
on marketing at all. And that's why we
focus on that second is because we're
just capitalizing on the low-hanging
fruit that's sitting in their database
that they're usually not doing anything
with or they're just blasting them with
email campaigns that, as we know, nobody
responds to. So, exit number three is I
didn't trust them, which is the
reputation manager. And so, what we're
doing here, the majority of businesses,
on average, local brick-and-mortar
businesses, only 11% of them ask
customers for reviews. So, 98% of people
reference Google reviews before making a
purchasing decision. So, if a business
is running advertising and they have bad
reviews, people are going to look them
up before becoming a customer, and if
they see that, they're going to just go
elsewhere. And so, all we do is we plug
our AI into their database of active
customers, we reach out to them asking
for feedback on how their experience
was, and then we incentivize them with
an offer to tell us how their experience
was, basically saying, "Hey Jacob, just
want to know your experience was on a
scale of 1 to 5, and if you let us know,
we'll give you a chance to win a
membership for free for the year. We'll
put you into a raffle that we run every
quarter." By doing that, we get a ton of
people to respond, and then we'll from
there, what we do is we follow up with
those people to get them to leave a
review on Google and make it very easy
for them to do it. And then once they
leave a review, we follow up with them
asking for referrals as well,
incentivizing them again saying, "If
anyone comes from you, we'll put your
name in that raffle five more times for
each person, and then anyone that you
want to refer, we'll give them a free
7-day pass." So, we make it very easy
for them to do that. So, exit number
four is I reached out and heard nothing
back. So, how many times have you
reached out to a business through their
website or their contact form, and then
they didn't get back to you? And so,
that's all we're doing right here. What
the data shows is that on average, local
businesses take 42 hours to follow up
with leads. We've also seen is that if
you follow up with them less than 5
minutes, your chances of getting that
lead to come through the door increase
by over 400%. And so, what we do here is
we plug our AI into their website leads
that opt in, and we just follow up right
away, within 5 minutes. And so, just by
doing that, we get a ton of leads that
opt in to book and show up that they can
then turn into customers without them
having to lift a single finger. And that
is why we do it fourth, because once you
fix the website, once you fix the
reviews, you're now getting a lot of
people coming to the website, then
you've got to make sure you're able to
actually follow up with them right away.
Now, exit number five is I called and
nobody picked up. So, how many times
have you called a local business and
nobody picked the phone up? On average,
62 out of 100 calls to local businesses
don't get picked up. And I've had
customers where they've literally gotten
106 calls in 1 month, they answered six
of them. So, over 90% of their calls
were missed, and these are people that
are calling the business that want to
become customers. And if you don't pick
the phone up, what the data shows is
that these people are just calling other
businesses. So, if you call a restaurant
to try and make a reservation and and
pick up, you're going to call another
restaurant. That's just how it works.
And so, what we do is we connect our AI
to their phone so that if no one picks
up within 10 seconds, the AI picks up
and then books them in and then from
there, it texts them to confirm their
appointment to make sure they actually
show up to their appointment. And then
if they do show up, it then asks them
for a review. If they leave a review, it
asks them for a referral. And so, it's
all a system now. As you can see, it's a
cycle that we put the leads through that
end up squeezing the juice out of every
single opportunity we have to help the
business owner make more money and help
more people. exit number six is I talked
to them, but they didn't convince me.
And so, on average, only 30% of people
that work at local businesses ever
receive formal sales training. So, if
you've ever had an awkward experience at
a local business where someone was
trying to sell you something, this is
why. It's because the majority of the
time the business owners have no clue
what they're doing. And they don't teach
their staff what to do cuz they don't
know what to do. And so, what we do
because of that is we help them with it.
And we create an AI that can help
role-play with them and then review
their consultations. And so, what the
data shows is that these people the
sales people that receive training in
some form of way regularly on a weekly
basis see over a 50% increase in sales.
And so, if you're getting all of these
new opportunities through the door for
these business owners, it doesn't matter
if they can't close them cuz they're
going to blame you even if they don't
close them. Unfortunately, that's just
how this works. And so, that's what I've
been able to create throughout this
whole process is a bulletproof system
that basically solves all these problems
for the business owner leveraging AI.
And then finally, exit number seven is I
never knew they existed in the first
place. And so, a lot of these businesses
invest a lot of money into marketing and
they do a very bad job of it or they
work with companies that do a very bad
job of it. And so, we address all those
problems and then we pour gas on the
fire by then running ads, hyper-targeted
ads for them. And then we nurture the
leads that come through those ads for
them. Once we do all of this and we do
it in the correct sequential order that
I just broke down, these business owners
end up getting very good results. And
that's why, as I just showed you, I've
been able to scale in one franchise over
the last 7 months to almost 50 locations
and that's now bringing my business in
over $70,000 a month. I just reached out
to a couple people and then we got one
guy really good results and now he's
literally just telling everyone to work
with us and now even the owner of the
franchise made us a preferred vendor and
we're going to speak at their conference
in September to then go sign up a bunch
more of them. So, if you just search on
Google Maps for franchises and sell them
the system I just told you about, you
can build a six-figure AI agency in 2026
potentially even a seven-figure agency,
but this window won't stay open forever.
So, if you're going to do this, the time
is to start right now and I can help you
do it a lot faster, not with a shitty
course or a coaching program or a
useless community. I've made over $25
million in sales for my agency, so I
really don't need your money. The way
that I'll help you is to give you
everything that I use in my agency, so
you can apply to the franchise you want
to work [music] with. Then I'll scale
you to seven figures per year and the
way I benefit is by acquiring a partner
who I can add to my portfolio of
companies. Every person I help gets me
closer to my goal of selling for a very
large multiple. So, if you want to take
this opportunity while the window is
still open, the application link is in
the description below under this video.
You and I will hop on a one-to-one call
where we'll be able to discuss how I can
help you out and if I think you'd be a
good fit and if so, great. If not, I'll
keep giving you the free value. Thank
you for watching. I'll see you in the
next one.
