Grok Bot just autonomously made me $10,000
Yesterday I gave Grok Bot access to my business email. I get tons of business inquiries and sponsorship requests there
The problem is I HATE reading email
I told Grok to respond to and negotiate with any legit companies that email me
Within 4 hours Grok closed it's first deal. A deal it 100% negotiated on its own.
Did market research, found appropriate rates, and negotiated a final price
Paid for 33 months of itself
We live in the greatest time ever to be a solopreneur
How to do it wasn't too crazy
Connect your gmail via the gmail plugin. Add all accounts you want to use
I told it to watch my business inbox. Every day at 8am, check it, research the senders to see if they are legit, and if they are asking about sponsorships, negotiate a deal
