Vince Lauro
AI Agent Expert & Educator
Hey, I'm Vince š
I help professionals build and deploy executive AI agents. No PhD requiredājust curiosity and a willingness to learn.
But I wasn't always confident about AI. In fact, I was pretty sure it was just hype that "regular people" couldn't actually make money from.
My Journey
The Skeptic Phase
Two years ago, I was like most peopleācurious about AI but convinced it was either too complicated or just marketing hype. Every article I read made it seem like you needed a computer science degree to do anything meaningful.
I'd tried a few AI tools, played with ChatGPT, but I couldn't see how any of it translated into actual income. "This is cool," I thought, "but how does anyone actually make money from this?"
Discovering OpenClaw
Everything changed when I discovered OpenClaw. Here was a platform that let you build AI agentsālike little autonomous assistantsāwithout being a developer. You could create something that actually runs 24/7 and does useful work.
I was skeptical at first. But I built my first agent in a weekend: a simple email responder for a friend's small business. It worked. Really worked. And suddenly I saw the business potential.
First Paying Clients
Within a month, I had my first paying clientā$500 to build an email agent for a local real estate agent. The project took me maybe 4 hours. That's when I realized: this could actually be a business.
I started reaching out to more small businesses. Some said no. But enough said yes. Within three months, I was making $3,000/month on the side. Not "quit your job" money yet, but real, tangible income from a skill I'd learned in weeks.
Sharing What I Learned
People started asking how I did it. Friends, then strangers online. I started documenting my process, sharing tips on Twitter, eventually creating guides and tutorials.
That's when I realized my real passion: not just building agents for clients, but teaching others how to do it. Showing regular peopleānot just techiesāthat this opportunity is accessible to anyone willing to learn.
Today
Now I teach others how to start their own AI agent businesses. Some do it part-time for extra income. Others are building toward replacing full-time jobs. A few are on their way to building proper agencies.
The common thread? You don't need to be a "tech person." Whether you're an accountant, teacher, marketer, or stay-at-home parentāif you have the curiosity to try something new and the persistence to stick with it, you can do this.
What I Believe
AI Should Be Accessible
You don't need a CS degree to benefit from AI. The tools exist now for anyone to build useful, profitable things.
Skills Over Credentials
Nobody cares about your certifications. Clients care if you can solve their problems. Focus on building real skills.
Action Over Perfection
The best way to learn is by doing. Build something messy, get feedback, improve. Don't wait until you feel "ready."
