The Details
An honest look at your options
vs. DIY Tools
ChatGPT, Zapier, and no-code builders are great starting points. But they hit a ceiling fast — generic outputs, no strategy, and you spend more time tweaking than working.
Good for
- Quick one-off tasks
- Simple automations
- Experimenting with AI
Falls short when
- Custom workflows for your business
- Anything beyond templates
- Ongoing reliability and support
vs. Freelancers
Freelancers can be talented, but finding one who truly understands AI is a gamble. Quality varies wildly, and if they disappear mid-project, you're stuck.
Good for
- Budget-friendly one-time projects
- Specific, well-defined tasks
- When you know exactly what you need
Falls short when
- Strategic AI guidance
- Consistent quality across projects
- Long-term maintenance and iteration
vs. Big Agencies
Agencies do great work — but they're built for big budgets. You'll pay for overhead, account managers, and timelines measured in months instead of weeks.
Good for
- Large-scale enterprise projects
- When budget isn't a constraint
- Multi-department rollouts
Falls short when
- Small business budgets
- Fast turnarounds
- Personal attention and flexibility
vs. Not Using AI
Waiting feels safe, but your competitors aren't waiting. Every month without AI is time spent on tasks that could be automated — and opportunities you're leaving on the table.
Good for
- Businesses with zero repetitive tasks
- Industries with strict AI regulations
- When you genuinely don't need it (rare)
Falls short when
- Staying competitive
- Scaling without hiring
- Reclaiming hours lost to busywork
