Automations are capital improvements 2. If capital improvements need regular updates, then a rental or lease model is often superior to ownership - doubly so if the capital improvements are not tax deductible as is sometimes the case with digital 3. Automations have a very low cost of duplication and maintenance, this makes them ideal for a SaaS with support service model 4. The cost of an automation should be priced around $1/10th to $1/50th the cost of doing it yourself with human labor. 5. Like any rental model, there should be a simple buyout for any automation. Likely 1/2 to 1x the annual cost. <table> <tr> <td><strong>Minimum Spend</strong></td> <td><strong>Minimum Time To Implement</strong></td> <td><strong>Maintenance Response Time</strong></td> <td><strong>Outsourcing</strong></td> <td><strong>Point of Contact</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>$300/month</strong></td> <td>30 Days</td> <td>2 Days</td> <td>No Outsourcing Help</td> <td>Client Portal</td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>$1000/month</strong></td> <td>10 Days</td> <td>Next Day </td> <td>No Outsourcing Help</td> <td>Slack Channel & Client Portal</td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>$3000/month</strong></td> <td> 5 Days</td> <td> Same Day </td> <td>Process Specific Freelancers</td> <td>Account Manager & Slack Channel</td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>$10,000/month</strong></td> <td>Same Day</td> <td>Same Day </td> <td>Outsourced Global Talent Manager</td> <td>Account Manager & Slack Channel</td> </tr> </table> AI Notes from 6/1 Calls - Digital operations and rented digital infrastructure refer to providing consulting services to help small businesses with operational areas like marketing, sales, HR, and accounting through automated processes and outsourcing. - The services aim to address the pain points small businesses face in having to spend significant time on non-core activities. The services provide a "playbook and processes" to handle these areas. - The services could generate $500,000 to $1 million in revenue for the consulting business by the end of the year through a cold email outreach strategy. - The services are scalable due to their simplicity and package-based solution. However, the business needs to focus on this idea and give it proper resources to succeed. - The services could be niche-focused for specific industries like restaurants or hospitals. The business plans to talk to 10 to 20 prospects to refine the model and value proposition. - The key to success will be the ability to execute and progress the idea by getting a landing page up quickly to capture interest. The advice is to fully execute this idea rather than seeking new ideas.
