There's a free tool that tells you exactly which businesses need a freelancer right now. Not job boards. Not Upwork. Most freelancers have heard of it but dont use it... Here's how to use it to land clients this week 👇

@NoahEpstein_ Holiday

if i had 10 days off over the holidays and wanted to make my first $1k, here's exactly what i'd do: step 1: stop treating this like a vacation everyone's watching netflix and drinking eggnog. you're about to build something that prints money in january while they're making resolutions. step 2: pick one boring niche dentists. accountants. real estate agents. law firms. these people are closed for the holidays but their problems aren't. their inbox is piling up. their leads are going cold. their follow-ups aren't happening. you're going to fix one of those problems. step 3: learn enough to be dangerous spend day 1-2 playing with n8n. don't master it. just understand the basics. trigger → action → output. that's 80% of what you need. step 4: build something that solves an obvious problem lead follow-up automation. appointment reminders. invoice chasing. email sorting. use Synta(.)io to go from idea to working workflow in under an hour. plain english → automation. no debugging rabbit holes. step 5: reach out before jan 1 "hey, noticed you probably have leads going cold over the holidays. i built something that follows up automatically while you're out of office. want me to show you?" send 20 of these. linkedin, email, doesn't matter. you need ONE yes. step 6: charge what it's worth $500-$1,500 for a simple automation that saves them 10+ hours/week. they'll pay. because their alternative is doing it themselves in january when they're already behind. --- the math: 10 days of focused work 1 client at $1K january starts with money in the bank instead of just resolutions while everyone's "planning to start" in the new year, you already did. comment "HOLIDAY" and i'll send you: - the exact outreach templates that work - 5 boring automations that sell fastest - how to price without feeling weird (must be following so i can dm)

@keananbrown @nova_lane_media @scaling_shields It actual emails from LinkedIn profiles. So yeah. I'd say they're quality. I can't say much about the conversion yet. I've not ran an extensive email campaign using emails from there as I've not yet figured out a way to export all the emails from there. Still working on that tho

@August_in_Tech @nova_lane_media @scaling_shields Quality emails? Real conversion?

i want $80k in January so i work backwards: $80k ÷ 30 days = $2.6k/day $2.6k ÷ $3k deal = 0.9 deals/day 0.9 deals ÷ 25% close = 3.6 calls needed 3.6 calls ÷ 70% show = 5 booked calls/day 5 calls ÷ 0.12% book rate = 4,166 emails/day my setup: • 280 inboxes • 4,500 emails/day capacity • short one-liner script • warm call every positive reply that's it most people pick a number and "try harder" i pick a number and build infrastructure to make it inevitable it's math simples

@nova_lane_media @scaling_shields Use Apollo. You can get as much as 200k depending on what you're looking for

@scaling_shields How do u even find 4500 emails to email man

@NoahEpstein_ 2026

if i had zero skills and needed to make $2k/month in 2026, here's exactly what i'd do: step 1: learn n8n at a basic level not master it. just play around. understand what it does. enough to speak about it when someone asks. that's it. step 2: go sell something find a niche. doesn't need to be sexy. doesn't need to be "money twitter" approved. i reached out to my 12 linkedin followers. twelve. found one guy. a crypto lawyer of all people. that's where my entire journey started. sell first. figure it out after. step 3: use the cheat code once you've sold the automation, you need to build it. Synta(.)io takes you from 0 to 95% complete workflow in under an hour. plain english → working automation. no nodes. no debugging for days. no stack overflow rabbit holes. step 4: deliver and show them how cracked you are implement it. walk them through it. make the value visible. they won't just pay you - they'll refer you. even a simple lovable website for the user to interact with the workflow. step 5: do NOT undervalue yourself one client. one week and a bit. $3k-$10k is reasonable for real business automation. only thing i regret when starting out? charging $500 when the work was worth $5,000. the intelligence gap is real. don't leave money on the table because of imposter syndrome. --- want the full breakdown? i wrote a 3-pager explaining each step in detail: - how to find your first client - what to say in outreach - the tool i use to build 10x faster - how to price without feeling weird comment "2026" and i'll send it over. (must be following so i can dm)

@NoahEpstein_ GAP

the intelligence gap in AI automation just hit $4 trillion businesses think they need: - PhD's in machine learning - 6-month implementation roadmaps - enterprise consulting firms - $200K budgets what they actually need: - someone who can describe the problem clearly - AI to build the workflow - 2 hours to test it - $5K to make it worth your time the gap between perception and reality is the entire opportunity McKinsey charges $4M for 20 weeks of "AI strategy" you can build the actual solution in 2 days for $10K courses sell you on becoming an "expert" clients pay you for solving their problem corporate thinks AI requires transformation you know it just requires connection that's the game: they're lost in complexity you understand it's mostly simple the companies still hiring "AI transformation consultants" for $300K projects don't know you can ship the same outcome in a week and the solo operators charging $10-20K per automation build? they figured this out 6 months ago comment "GAP" and i'll break down the 3 industries where this gap is widest right now

@EdwardA_Johnson @TheJobfather__ This is something I can execute. Can I get the dataset to do just that?

@TheJobfather__ As a hiring manager if I give a Data Analyst candidate a Toronto parking tickets dataset, then I want to see initiative to combine it with school location data and show that parking inspectors around 0730 - 0830 a.m. prefer to check near schools in poorer rather than richer areas

I see a lot of Data Analyst portfolios...more than I'd like to admit. Most people show dashboards. Great. But hiring managers want to see that you can think through the data not just visualize it. Here are three projects that’ll make you stand out:

@MayboyOG @thedennisobaro1 How much

@thedennisobaro1 I want to sell my own oo, I need that other one for gaming

For me, this is the best ergonomic chair, I’ve used it for almost 3 years, and even after hours of sitting, I’ve never experienced back pain.

@omoalhajaabiola @omoalhajaabiola. Are the IG reels their own content or other people's content?

Who can do this?

@AscentTechHub I can always get my caffeine from other sources.

You can only keep 3, which one’s getting kicked out? 👀   • Fast Wi-Fi   • Smartphone   • Cloud Storage   • Coffee ☕ Be honest 👇 We’ll know if you lie about coffee 😂 #Ascent #TechFunFriday #DigitalTransformation #AscentLearn #FutureOfWork #Innovation #TechCommunity

@AscentTechHub Def Coffee

@NoahEpstein_ REASONING

Everyone's losing their shit over OpenAI o1 while I just built an AI reasoning agent that thinks 10x deeper for $7/month. The $200 ChatGPT Pro suckers are paying for "advanced reasoning" that my n8n workflow beats using free models chained together. Here's the kicker - it doesn't just think longer. It thinks SMARTER. What this reasoning beast actually does: → Breaks complex problems into 15+ reasoning steps automatically → Cross-validates its own logic using multiple AI models → Challenges its assumptions before giving final answers → Documents entire thought process for transparency → Costs less than your Netflix subscription to run 24/7 Built this for a Fortune 500 consultant who was burning $2K/month on AI tools. Now they're running circles around teams using ChatGPT Pro. The workflow uses: - Claude for initial analysis - GPT-4 for devil's advocate challenges - Gemini for fact-checking - Custom logic nodes that force deeper thinking - All orchestrated in n8n like a beautiful symphony While everyone's fighting for ChatGPT Pro access, you could build something 10x more powerful this weekend. Follow + Like + Comment "REASONING" and I'll DM you: - Complete n8n workflow JSON (import and run) - Setup video showing every connection - Prompt chains that force AI to think deeper - My consulting framework for charging $10K for this Stop paying tech giants for half-baked "reasoning" when you can build a reasoning MONSTER that actually delivers. (Need all 3 actions or my automation won't catch your handle)

@rhymeside @NwaduhuJnr @omoalhajaabiola Matplotlib*

@NwaduhuJnr @omoalhajaabiola Matplotlab*

@omoalhajaabiola I'm currently studying AI in one of the European universities here sef. Python is everything for Machine Learning and data science. The likes of Pandas, NumpY and metaplotlab for data virtualization.

"statistical packages like Python..." Okay....

@benefit2cryp @ibn_wittig @omoalhajaabiola Congratulations and goodluck to you...

Hey #datafam My internship journey commence today. Real world dataset will increase the way you think. Wish me luck @ibn_wittig @omoalhajaabiola
