Are templates dead?


Most people don’t need another template.

They need a shortcut.

Not another PDF with 12 steps they won’t follow.

A tool that does the job for them.

That’s what AI agents are.

They’re not content. They’re interactive assets.

They replace the downloads, checklists, and PDFs that used to sit at the front of your funnel... and they actually get used.

Here’s what I mean:

→ Instead of a “Perfect Cold Email Template”...
…create an AI agent that asks 5 questions and writes the email for them (I've done tonnes of these)

→ Instead of a language pronunciation sheet...
... create an accent coach who breaks pasted in text down to the phonetic pronunciation.

→ Instead of 5 weight loss recipes...
…build a diet advisor that asks about weight goals, preferences, allergies, budget, then delivers 3 meal ideas with recipes and macros.

More useful. More valuable. And way more likely to get shared.

And yeah... more likely to build the trust that leads to buyers.

Because if your AI tool saves someone time or makes their life easier…

They’re not just going to opt-in. They’re going to buy.

That’s what we’re doing inside GM+ next month.

Building AI agents that:

  • Save time
  • Attract buyers
  • Sell your services (or become the product)

And we’re doing it fast... so you’ve got an asset up and live before the hype wave rolls on.

Want to build yours?

Most people put their lack of growth down to one thing... a lack of time. Butt most of the time, that's BS. It's not time they lack, but leverage. If you’re spending all day making content, answering the same questions, or chasing leads… And you’re not creating assets that free you from that… You’re just keeping yourself stuck. Here’s the thing... You don’t need to build something new from scratch. You already have the raw materials... your frameworks, your scripts, your plans, your answers....

Most people overcomplicate it. They think building a Custom GPT means messing around with APIs, coding, or some mad tech stack. But in reality? There are only three things you need to create a GPT that prints cash and saves you hours and can even be sold to bring in buyers. Those are.. A template or asset you already use (e.g. an ad, script, plan, framework) A process for how you normally use it A ChatGPT Plus account ($20/month) That’s it. If you’ve already got those first two (and most...

Just did a count this morning… In the last 18 months, I’ve built 44 Custom GPTs. Custom bots that handle entire jobs for me... faster, easier, and more profitably. Here are 3 I use all the time: Customer Research GPTFeed it reviews from your competitors. It pulls pain points, benefits, and tells you how to stand out. Ad Copy GPTAnswer 5 questions. Get ads in my proven formats. (My current ads get a 4% CTR, which is better than 90% of advertisers.) Sales Sequence GPTInput your offer. It writes...
