Stop “picking a niche” and start testing what resonates.

How to Sign Your First AI-Assisted Agency Client in Two Weeks – The Niche–Method That Actually Works
When I first started online, everyone told me the same thing: “Step one is picking a niche.” So beginners sit there for weeks trying to decide between coaches, dentists, SaaS, ecom… and never actually talk to a single real prospect. I see it every day with people trying to launch an AI-assisted agency. They’re obsessed with the perfect niche and completely ignore the only thing that matters at the start: who actually replies and books calls.
Here’s the reality: in the beginning, you don’t have a niche. Your niche is “any business with solid lifetime value that’s willing to talk to you.” That’s why I built an AI prompt that spits out 500+ obscure, high-LTV niches that almost nobody pitches. When you target these weird markets instead of the same overfished ponds (info, coaches, home services), your reply rates instantly jump, and signing your first client becomes a math problem instead of a miracle.
The shift for me was thinking in niche–method combinations. Niche is who you target. Method is how you contact them: direct cold DMs/emails, Dream 100 with free strategic assets, and eventually automated cold email at scale. All I do is run simple tests: 20 messages a day per niche, rotate through 5–10 niches, then double down on whatever responds best.
Once I did that, client acquisition stopped being mystical. It was just: test niches, track replies, scale what works. That’s the exact process I now hand to beginners who want their first AI-assisted agency client in ~2 weeks instead of wandering around YouTube for six months.
The Fastest Way to Land Your First AI-Assisted Agency Client (Without Guessing Niches or Spamming Generic Cold Emails)
Most beginners fail before they ever get a yes—not because AI “doesn’t work,” but because their entire client acquisition strategy is broken. They pick saturated niches, send bloated corporate-sounding emails, and quit after 40 messages because “no one replies.” They’re doing everything except the one thing that works: testing niche–method combos in a structured way.
The model I teach is simple: use AI to generate 500+ obscure, high-LTV niches and 50 proven offers, then combine that with three cold outreach methods that are built for beginners—tight, human-sounding cold DMs/email, Dream 100 free deliverables that look like weeks of work but are generated in minutes, and later, automated cold email once you’ve signed a few clients. The goal isn’t perfection; it’s signal. You only need one niche + one method to hit.
I can say this confidently because I’ve already done the hard part at scale. I’ve gone from a zeroed-out agency to a seven-figure agency, then into an eight-figure software and coaching company, and we’ve put over $25M through our processors. Inside that, I’ve watched hundreds of students sign their first AI-assisted agency clients using this exact niche–method framework.
Inside the AI-Assisted Agency system, I give you the lists, the mega prompts, the outreach templates, and the KPIs so you know exactly what “working” looks like: how many messages per day, what reply rate to aim for, when to move from direct DMs into Dream 100, and when it’s time to layer on automated cold email. You’re not guessing—you’re following a tested acquisition playbook.
If you’re serious about landing that first 2–4K/month client using AI to do most of the fulfillment—and you don’t want to burn six months stuck on “Which niche should I pick?”—this is where you plug into a system that’s already producing calls and clients for people at your stage.
