Updates, ideas, and practical notes from Lumina Sales on building and selling AI software.

Ask after the client has seen a number they like, not after the build ships. Here is the timing, the wording, why cash bounties backfire, and what a German bank study says referred customers are worth.
Run the audit on the prospect's own domain, pick one finding they can verify in thirty seconds, and open with that. Here is how the website audit node works, how to use it, and where it stops helping.
The catch is the limits: one published demo, 100 voice minutes, a five-minute call cap, and client builds priced separately at wholesale. Here is every limit, what happens at the cap, and who should skip it.
Lumina Sales tracks demo opens, calls and website audits. Here is which of those signals mean something, how to read them together, when to follow up, and where the tracking stops.
n8n's license lets you build and run workflows for clients on your own instance, but not host it for them or white-label it. Here is what n8n covers, what it leaves out, and when a white-label stack fits.

A first white-label AI demo takes about ten minutes, most of it spent choosing a subdomain and uploading a logo. Here is the setup order, what to have ready beforehand, and the limits to know before you start.
Nothing gets deleted. Your published demo unpublishes, every draft stays, and usage drops to zero until you resubscribe. Here is the full answer, including the part about client builds that nobody thinks to ask on the pricing call.

Here are five filters for picking a trade, what the AI adoption data says about which ones are open, and when staying a generalist is the right call.
