Why it works
Small businesses lose customers because they can't respond instantly. A £400 chatbot that captures leads 24/7 pays for itself immediately while you build recurring income.
The catch
One chatbot is a project; a repeatable package is a business. If this clicks, the step up is picking one local industry and selling the same automation bundle on retainer - see the One-Niche Automation Partner blueprint.

- Document time and money saved with real numbers
- Offer free setup to first 3 clients in exchange for case studies
- Pitch setup fee (£400-1,600) plus monthly maintenance (£80-250)
Tools you'll use
- Chatbase or CustomGPT
- Zapier (for integrations)
- Google Sheets (for data collection)
Chuck's pro tip
Focus on businesses that lose money from missed calls: dentists, lawyers, contractors, restaurants. Show them how many leads they're losing by not responding instantly.
