I just wrote an article with insights from AI BOT Summit 2026.. If you want to read it, please take a moment and see the article below.. BTW, these people are very hungry.. Im excited that I got to meet so many new friends and connect with old friends. 

The most interesting thing is connecting with NEW people that I never met before but that KNEW ME. 

Perry said something that struck me.. He said that if you DO NOT PUT YOURSELF OUT THERE ON CAMERA in the NEXT 24 months it will COST YOU MORE than in the NEXT DECADE. 

70% of Google searches in 2026 will result in NO CLICK (Zero-click advertising)

That means it COST YOU NOTHING but people consumed the content.. Perry Belcher was mentioning Frank Kern over and over about his OJOOY product. 

I keep seeing those ADS on Facebook over and over and over and all I see is his tattoos.. lol dont ask me why just what I notice.. 

People get their answers directly from AI or search results without clicking through

He said he is Buying 1 billion video views in 2026 - "I'm buying myself 1 billion video views this year" Litterally.. That is crazy. 

Using short-form video as sorting mechanisms - Views cost him 1-3 cents per view

Building fame in the industry - "You're buying yourself fame in the industry, and you can force that"

Retargeting based on video views - "He can retarget those people now based on the fact they watch the short video"

You become the content platform (via short-form video)

Force-feed attention through paid views (dirt cheap: 1-3 cents)

Build fame and recognition in your space

Retarget the engaged audience (they've already seen you, know you, trust you)

Make human connection first (AI handles the middle and backend)

THIS IS THE KEY.. that is why I always say 80% AI, 20% human, 100% authentic and profitable. 

Would you want to join me for the AI SUMMIT in 2027?

The 10-Question Framework to Find Million-Dollar App Ideas

Most entrepreneurs build apps nobody wants.

Here's why: They solve problems they think exist instead of problems they know exist.

I've built evyAI to 1,000+ users and scaled Ajax Union to Inc 500 by doing the opposite—listening first, building second.

Here's the exact interview framework I use:

Ask yourself (or your clients) these 10 questions:

1. Walk me through a typical workday. What 3-5 tasks do you do repeatedly?

2. What task makes you think "There HAS to be a better way"?

3. What software are you paying for that frustrates you?

4. If you could automate ONE thing in your business, what would it be?

5. What question do your clients ask you over and over?

6. What breaks in your business when you're away for a week?

7. Where do you waste money on labor that could be automated?

8. What would someone pay $50-500/month to NOT have to do anymore?

9. What do ALL your clients struggle with that they don't realize is a common problem?

10. Have 3+ people complained about the same thing in the last month?

How to use this:

→ Interview 10 people in your target market
→ Record their exact words when describing pain points
→ Look for patterns (3+ people saying the same thing = validated problem)
→ Focus on problems people already pay to solve

The best app ideas aren't clever—they're obvious once someone points them out.

Stop guessing. Start listening.

What's one problem you hear about constantly in your industry? 

Drop it in the comments—you might be sitting on your next business idea.

---

P.S. - This is how I identified the need for evyAI. LinkedIn users kept asking me 

"How do I personalize outreach at scale?"

100+ conversations later, I knew exactly what to build.

It would be wonderful to get 500 more recommendations this year on my LinkedIn profile but id be very happy with 1 new recommendation per month from a happy client.

If you have not gotten a recommendation in several years, make it a priority to get a few this year.

This is the way that I enjoy getting recommendations. I kind of make it pretty easy when you take this approach.

The first step is to have a conversation with a client and ask them what they love most about working with you.

Yes, I know. This is a leading question. Asking the question the client to think about how you're adding value to them.

 Inevitably, if you're doing a good job the client will be thrilled to tell you why you're doing such a great job.

Make sure that you're actually connected with that client on LinkedIn. So that they can technically leave you a recommendation on the platform.

If that client is not connected to you on the platform, they will not be able to leave you a recommendation.

The next step is to have them navigate to Your Profile. And teach them how to leave a recommendation.

You would be surprised how often people do not even know how to leave a recommendation on LinkedIn.

It's really not obvious. Because you have to click on the more button, which is hidden next to the message Button.

Wednesday or on your profile. You wanna ask them if they would be willing to leave you a recommendation on LinkedIn. 

Guide them through the process. This way, it makes it much easier for them to leave that recommendation...

Next make sure that you take a moment to screenshot the recommendation ans share it as a post. 

Otherwise people dont know that you got a new recommendation. 

I know this sounds very obvious. But common sense is not common Practice...

How many recommendations are you going to get in 2026???

Most products don’t fail because of bad design.
They fail because no one owns the UX decisions.

I step in when websites or web products get complex, redesigns keep happening, and clarity still doesn’t stick. My role isn’t execution or tools — it’s deciding what should exist, what shouldn’t, and what must come first.

AI can build faster. Agencies can style better.
I make the hard UX calls that prevent confusion, rework, and endless redesigns.

Execution happens under that direction, with strong designers and builders, but only after the right decisions are made.
