What It Is
You sell companies automation of their ERP and inventory-management work, the routine data entry, reconciliation and reporting staff do inside those systems, using AI tools and integrations. Projects are sold as one-off builds or ongoing contracts, usually through direct outreach to business owners.
The Pitch
Dang's client Allison quit an assistant job to sell AI automations, focusing on ERP and inventory systems. With no testimonials, she connected with about 200 business owners in Canada each week on LinkedIn and followed his messaging framework. Dang says she then closed deals of $23,000 and $28,000 in a single month, around $50,000 in total.
Who It’s Best For
People who have worked with ERP, inventory or operations systems and understand how a business's data flows, ideally with some technical or integration skills.
The Truth (as we see it)
ERP and inventory work is a real pain point and deals in this area can be large, so the prices are believable. Delivery is the hard part: ERP systems are business-critical, and a faulty automation can cause costly errors, so this suits people with real systems knowledge rather than complete beginners. The figures come from one client story told by her coach. The video is sponsored by Base44 and promotes Dang's free skill pack, live training and coaching calls.
