Go-to-market motion
Cold outbound to B2B service businesses (agencies, SaaS, home services) via LinkedIn + email → free trial → $49-99/mo paid, targeting 3-5 closes/week at steady state.
Key risks
- Intercom, Drift, Tidio, and Crisp already ship AI engagement features - the differentiation window is nearly closed and buyers default to incumbents
- The 'slow site response' headline conflates page speed (a CDN/dev problem) with lead follow-up speed - buyers may misunderstand what they're buying and churn after onboarding
- AI response quality requires per-customer tuning; without it, hallucinations or generic replies actively hurt client conversion rates and generate refund demands
