This New AI Agent Is Basically an Entire Company
355 segments
This business used to be my entire life,
but I lost my passion for it and I
abandoned it for years. But then my X
account got banned and overnight my
business lost its main source of
traffic. So I needed to replace that
income fast. So I'm going to use AI to
revive my old business. [music] Building
it the first time took me years of
grinding, but I don't have years. So
[music] AI is going to need to build
this for me and learn how to go viral on
social media. Create and post content,
generate leads and close those leads for
me and run the whole business for me
start to finish. Okay, so the first
thing I needed to do was build my AI
dream team. But I needed an AI tool that
can reliably create entire agent teams
that I could hook different models in
and that I could connect to all of my
different tools in order to revive my
business as fast as possible. So I got
to researching and found this very cool
product called HyperAgent. The reason I
decided to use it for this test is
simple. I do not just need a chatbot. I
quit this page because it got repetitive
sourcing content, writing captions,
scheduling posts, replying to DMs every
single week. But AI doesn't get bored. I
also reached out to the team and they
love this idea so much that they were
very happy to sponsor today's video. big
shout out to the HyperAgent team. This
video literally wouldn't be possible
without them. HyperAgent is giving away
$100 in bonus credits by the way when
you sign up. So check it out now inside
the link in the description below. And
with that I got started and built five
agents. So I'm building out my team and
I have to say I really enjoy the
platform. I really enjoy how it looks
like, how it feels, even hiring the
agents one by one. So, we currently have
our team, an auditor, a researcher, a
strategist, a content creator, and a
salesperson, and we're still hiring one
more, which is the operator, right now.
And it's done a pretty good job at
understanding the page so far. I'm
giving it as much information as it
needs, and from there we'll get started
with day one. All right, and we're
wrapping up day one. It just posted its
first post literally 3 minutes ago. We
already have six likes, which is great.
And this is the first post that it
helped us spin up and make. This is the
operator agent's daily job, actually
writing out each post for the day with
their captions, media over here,
and the time slots it scheduled it out
for for the day. And yeah, we have two
posts scheduled per day. Day one, I'm
focusing on the content itself. I'm
going to let today's post run and come
back and check tomorrow. But, a couple
of things I've noticed, it's been 3
years almost since I've posted.
Literally, the post before it was 151
weeks ago. That's almost 3 years, if not
more. A lot has changed on Instagram.
The researcher has come back and was
literally like, "Dude, like I don't
think we can continue posting the things
you used to post. Policies have changed.
The Instagram has changed. The internet
has changed since then, and it wouldn't
be fair to post these today." Uh so, we
need to rework new strategy, something
I've never tried before. It will have to
come up with it, which makes this
challenge even more interesting. That's
the researcher's report. It pulled
Instagram's current policy in 2026 and
told me flat-out that the old format is
a ban risk. And that right here at the
bottom is the strategist coming up with
completely new content plan. See you in
day two. Day two here and I'm genuinely
impressed with what we've been able to
do in day one and so far. I mean, the
first post we've posted has done very
very well. Its reception was taken very
well. Just evidenced by this comment,
"Well, finally the admin is back." I do
suspect though that, as you can see, the
post after it did a little worse and we
just posted another post right now on
day two. I suspect that this was because
this was my first post in a long time.
Instagram notifies a lot of people, you
know, like, "Hey, this person has posted
for the first time in a while." I
suspect that might be why, but what I'm
more so surprised by is Hyper Agent's
ability to just work so well with a
fleet of agents. I haven't been talking
to it that much, but it's been able to
do a lot of research where needed. It's
been very spot-on, very accurate. I'm
going to be testing new angles, like
news for example, on that page. And it's
crazy that it's been able to do all of
that on its own. And what's even
crazier, something that I failed to
realize when I first started this
challenge, I thought it would be a lot
closer to posting the same type of
content I used to post before. But
thanks to Hyper Agent, it's literally
gone and done a deep dive on the state
of Instagram right now. And I didn't
even know this, but I can't post the
same type of content I used to post
anymore because Instagram has apparently
flagged that as a type of content that
if you post, you can either get banned
or you can just, you know, be
shadowbanned. Your post won't show up to
anyone, including your followers, which
we don't want that to happen. So, it
literally spun up a strategy that I
wouldn't even have thought of or had the
the time or patience to come up with,
and it's currently testing it out. This
is insane. I'm pleasantly surprised with
this. It's day four and honestly, I'm
surprised. Yesterday's post took off
absolutely that well. It did even better
than the first post that we posted
almost two times as good. Even though it
didn't get that many comments, I think
news are great thing we have to play
into for the rest of this video and it's
such a great strategy. Honestly, I've
told it to double down. We just posted
two. So, we'll see how today's posts go.
But I love how it's just learning. It's
literally taking up every single post
trying to see what does well, what
doesn't do well, monitoring competitors,
seeing how to go viral. I wouldn't have
figured this out on my own to be
completely honest or it would have taken
me months if not years to figure this
out and I would have either gotten
banned or shadow banned at that point.
The second thing I've done today so far
is start the DM replying which was just
such a headache back then to have to
find, reply, answer all the questions.
The great thing with AI is you can
literally just give it that
responsibility and it will do a 10 times
better job than you ever could. What's
nice is I can talk to specific agents
directly. This is me telling the sales
agent, "Hey, we need to start DMs and
selling. How do we get started?" It
asked me a list of questions that it
needs and then we literally started. I
set up an automation so that it sends me
an email. It replies to DMs and it will
stop before pitching a price. Oh, I'm
excited. I'll be on the lookout to see
how we do by day five. Day five and I'm
pleasantly surprised with the results
that we've had today. I mean, it decided
to double down on news which I mean,
absolutely because just look at this
post right here. We be about 11 hours
ago so in the morning, and it's
absolutely blowing up. Uh we can see the
reach on it, but on the phone it shows
that it's currently at 80,000 people.
It's crazy that it understood how to go
viral. I mean, this post right here is
doing better than posts I had around the
peak of this page's lifespan. So, this
is absolutely wild. This is update
number one. Update number two. It did
start replying to a bunch of DMs, all
the DMs we're getting, and there's no
lead yet that is looking like a
promising one, or that is looking like
they're about to pay. But, it's going to
keep going, and the great thing is we
have it up and running, and yeah, that's
literally it. I can't wait to see what
we do on day six. Day six, and oh my
god, guys, yesterday's post, let me just
refresh real quick, went absolutely
viral. I mean, look at that. 3,000
likes, over 150,000
impressions on this just one post alone.
We had other posts do well as well.
Today was a very good day in terms of
posts, and yeah, the best part is we got
to enjoy the lake. We went, we sailed,
we had fun, and I didn't have to worry
about any of this. I mean, typically it
was on Sundays, days like this, where I
would spend the day sourcing content,
creating the content, just hours of my
day spent on creating that content, and
I just got to rest, to relax, to enjoy,
to make good quality memories, which
makes me so, so happy. On the downside,
though, the DMs don't look that
promising.
>> I mean, you could see it in the pipeline
with all of these statuses, all of these
follow-ups sent, not a single reply
received.
10 active leads at the moment, zero
replies, zero objections, zero purchase
intent.
Oh god. I mean, it's been replying to
every single DM we've received and it's
gone as far as literally one guy just
deactivated this account. This is how
bad the DMs are going. I don't know if
we're going to make a sale this week.
I'm not very hopeful. We have only one
day left to this challenge, but only
time will tell. I mean, one thing I know
is even if we don't make sales this
week, I know it's going to happen this
month. I know we need to get the ball
rolling first. I mean, content is number
one. If your content sucks, your reach
sucks. If your reach sucks, your
discovery sucks. And if your discovery
sucks, then your pipeline doesn't exist.
So, content is number one and it seems
to really understand what makes good
content. I mean, we just posted this and
it's already doing well. See you in the
final day of this challenge. Oh my god,
I was getting ready to wrap up and
writing down the results for this
challenge on day seven and we just got
our first close. Finally. I honestly
didn't think that we would get a single
close during the 7-day challenge. I
mean, 7 days is insanely short to revive
an entire business. I'm shook right now.
But I mean, on a positive note, look at
this. We took a page that was completely
dead for three entire years and we
managed to bring it back to life. So,
after 1 week, here is what happened. The
page started with no posts whatsoever
for the past 3 years. However, in the
last 7 days, we've managed to post 20
content pieces this week, generate
668,000
impressions, reach 151,000
unique accounts, and receive 13,900
interactions or engagement. We did lose
242 followers in total, but that was
mostly because on day one of this
challenge, hundreds of people unfollowed
as soon as we got active again. I mean,
you can see that massive dip on our
first day of this challenge, but then
you can see we're now above break even.
We're now finally starting to gain
followers again. And that is classic for
a business that's been dormant for 3
years. We did get 18 total inbound leads
and closed one, generating a total of
$50 in revenue on week one, which isn't
a massive life-changing number, but it's
honestly more than I ever expected on
week one. But, I don't think that is the
only useful way to judge this. A dormant
page does not usually go from dead to
profitable in 7 days. The better
question is whether the system created
leading indicators that make the page
worth continuing. I mean, we did have
one post reach 179,000
views at the time of this recording,
with many others getting around 50 to
100,000 views. I am pleasantly surprised
by how well my AI agents were able to
handle autonomy and pump out much better
content than I would have ever been able
to. So, the big question is, after 7
days of trying this out, would I keep
this running? And the answer is a big
fat giant yes, absolutely. We managed to
[clears throat] turn a dead business
asset into a working pipeline again. I
mean, we got a strategy, we created
content, we replied to leads, and this
AI agent gave me a reason to keep
operating the page instead of letting it
just sit there. And that is a massive
win. If you want to try this out
yourself, I will leave a link for you to
try out HyperAgent in the description
below. You can get $100 worth of credits
when you sign up. Look, here's my advice
after what I've learned reviving my dead
business. Do not start with a giant
company-wide automation. Start with one
agent that does one useful job every
morning. Maybe it researches leads.
Maybe it prepares a content brief. Maybe
it checks your pipeline. One single
agent, one single job. That's literally
the whole starting point. And once that
agent creates a clean handoff, add the
second agent. That is when it starts
feeling less like a chatbot and more
like a team. That is the difference
between AI that gives you a reply and AI
that prepares work when you actually use
it. So, did AI revive my dead business?
I would say yes. My wife is actually the
one who suggested this whole video and
who asked me if AI could bring this
thing back to life. And I told her
probably not, but it took something I
was ignoring for years and it helped me
automate the parts that made me lose
passion for it. And that is usually
where businesses die in the first place.
Not because the opportunity is gone, but
because nobody keeps pushing the boring
parts forward. Comment HyperAgent if you
enjoyed this type of challenge video.
I'd love to know if there is interest
for me to do more of these. And if you
enjoyed this video, make sure to leave a
like and subscribe if you're new to my
channel because I have a ton more
content coming your way. Anyway, I'll
see you in the next video very, very
soon. See you later.
