Some guy messaged me just now, disappointed that hiring an AI Builder for his firm wasn’t just a few clicks.
I told him that when it comes to finding people, it’s more like dating than Uber Eats.
You have to screen people properly– not just take their word for it.
You need to have a process to hire someone into–otherwise, how will you keep them accountable?
What SOPs will they be following daily?
Who will they go to if they run into trouble or need someone to talk to?
An AI Builder is not a ChatGPT bot with a flesh exterior– they’re humans with families, hopes, and dreams– just like you and me.
If you have a project– something with a defined end goal– hire a freelancer on UpWork.
But if you have an ongoing function, hire an AI Builder to fill that process.
Free up your time to make high-impact moves– not low-value, repetitive activities.
We have a step-by-step guide on the AI Builder hiring process that hundreds of founders have used to hire their first AI Builder— or first 20 AI Builders.
