Audience Take-Away Summary

We have opportunities to make a decision that can change our future. On my third day at Amazon, I had one, when asked to “fix global growth.” I didn’t know how to do that. But I had a choice—step back, or step in. I chose to invent the future instead of waiting for someone else to do it. That choice shaped my entire career.

Today, with AI, you’re standing in that same moment.

The Vision

AI isn’t just another tool. It’s becoming your operating system. Soon, every person will work side-by-side with general-purpose AI (like ChatGPT) and specialist AI agents designed for their business.

  • Imagine an AI Listing Agent that drafts and optimizes listings.
  • An AI Pricing Agent that builds hyper-local comps instantly.
  • An AI Contracts Agent that preps paperwork and flags redlines.
  • An AI Closing Agent that coordinates schedules and tasks.

Every employee—and every client—will have their own AI team. The question is whether you’ll build that future, or let someone else define it for you.

How to Act (with examples)

  1. Make Work Easier with AI
    • Don’t just write emails. Use AI as a teammate for research, analysis, brainstorming, and creative work.
    • Example: Ask it to create three MLS-ready property descriptions—one for budget buyers, one for families, one for luxury buyers. And automate it using a GPT.
  2. Generate Demand with AI
    • Use AI to attract leads instead of chasing them.
    • Example: Create a Neighborhood Pulse Report for every area you serve—auto-generated monthly with sales data, livability, and local news—pushed to social and email.
  3. Eliminate Bottlenecks with AI
    • Free up your time by automating repetitive processes.
    • Example: Use an AI scheduling agent that coordinates showings by accessing calendars and emailing clients directly.
    • Example: Use of Lindy AI to create an auto-response bot for your content.
    • SPECIAL: Instructions Here to Set Up Your Own Auto Response Bot (Link: https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/66c78ce64459f842691dc77d/68c2fa75d934d8c49662b659_Lindy%20Use%20Case.pdf)
    • Demonstration of Lindy AI (Link: https://try.lindy.ai/stellis)
  4. Trailblaze and Differentiate with AI
    • Create new services your competitors don’t even imagine.
    • Example: Give each client their own “Real Estate Concierge AI”—trained on your expertise, answering questions 24/7, keeping them engaged long after the sale.

What Doesn’t Change with AI

AI can optimize, automate, and even innovate—but it can’t replace human trust. Clients still need your confidence, your reassurance, your presence. That’s your edge.

The 3 Things to Do in the Next 30 Days

  1. Use a paid AI tool daily — $30/month is the cheapest competitive edge you’ll ever buy.
  2. Identify one bottleneck in your work — then design an AI solution to automate it.
  3. Try it — launch that automation and free your time to focus on clients.

Closing Thought

Amazon’s secret was simple: empower people to innovate, then scale it with AI. You can do the same. If you act now, you’ll lead. If you wait, you’ll be left behind.

Today is your Day One.

Choose to invent the future—not wait for someone else to.
