How AI Turns Cold Leads Into Ready Buyers Automatically
2025/12/22 | 15 mins.
Hey! This is Ep 152 of Amplify Ai - Integrating Intelligence, Preserving Identity presented by Ronsley Vaz.Hey, AI geeks. It's Ronsley!Most businesses don't have a leads problem. They have a value gaps problem. That gap between "I've heard of you" and "I'm ready to buy" is where most founders lose their audience. And honestly? It's fixable. Today I'm showing you exactly how to close that gap using AI—live on screen.In this episode, I walk you through building three specific assets that keep your audience engaged, build trust, and move them toward buying without feeling salesy:📚 What you'll learn in this episode:- 🎯 The Presuasion Framework explained (and where your audience sits on the trust/intent matrix)- 🎬 How to create a 3-part mini-series that delivers real value using AI prompts- 📧 Turning video scripts into automated email sequences and social hooks- 🗓️ Designing an Office Hours invite flow that qualifies leads before they even show up- 📊 Building a simple ROI calculator in Google Sheets (with AI doing the heavy lifting)- 🚫 Four mistakes I wanted to avoid (and you should too)This matters because every new subscriber who comes into your world should arrive as a high-trust, pre-sold lead. These assets compound over time. They work while you sleep. And they de-risk your business by keeping you top of mind with people who will buy—just not today.Coming up next: I'll show you how to orchestrate the yes—building assets for audiences who ARE ready to buy and already trust you can deliver.P.S. If you build these assets after watching this episode, screenshot them and tag me. I'm a builder just like you—and I genuinely want to see what you create.TIMESTAMPS0:00 - The real problem: Value gaps, not lead gaps0:24 - Welcome to Amplify AI0:38 - What we're building today: 3 assets1:05 - The Presuasion Framework explained1:52 - Understanding the trust/intent matrix2:35 - What is value continuity?3:18 - Why these assets matter for your business4:05 - Four mistakes to avoid4:45 - Creating the mini-lesson series with AI5:30 - Setting the AI system prompt for content6:15 - Designing your 3-part miniseries structure7:20 - Lesson 1: Why you're leaking value between touchpoints8:00 - Turning video scripts into email sequences8:35 - Creating social hooks for LinkedIn, TikTok & Reels9:10 - Building the Office Hours invite flow10:05 - Naming your session and writing the copy10:50 - Creating confirmation and reminder emails11:30 - The qualifying question that filters your audience12:00 - Building the ROI calculator12:45 - Designing formulas and layout in Google Sheets13:30 - Linking Google Forms to your ROI calculator14:00 - Your three action steps after this episode14:45 - What's coming next: Orchestrating the Yes15:15 - Join the AI geeks community#AmplifyAI #AIforBusiness #FounderTips #ValueContinuity #PresuasionFramework #AIPrompts #LeadGeneration #BusinessAutomation #RonsleyVaz #AIGeeksFind out more at:- https://amplifyais.com/academy- https://wearepodcast.com/- https://amplifyais.com/podcastMuch love,Ronsley

Using AI to work faster feat. Derek Coburn
2025/12/08 | 20 mins.
Hey! This is Ep151 of Amplify Ai - Integrating Intelligence, Preserving Identity presented by Ronsley Vaz.Ever spent weeks trying to cross-reference your own work? Or felt completely stumped when someone asks "How can I help you?" — and you've got nothing useful to say?That was me. Until this conversation with Derek Coburn changed how I think about both.Derek just released his book "Let's Talk About Retiring Retirement" and shared this brilliant "Two Tonys" story that I've now turned into a framework for how we explain AI value. Plus, I'm showing you exactly how I used Gemini's massive context window to scan my entire book manuscript and 25+ podcast transcripts to find connections I never could have done manually.What you'll pick up from this episode:🔹 The Two Tonys retirement story that shifts everything about how you present value🔹 How to answer "How can I help you?" without sounding like a deer in headlights🔹 Using long-context AI (Gemini) to scan entire books and find relationships🔹 My Ship 15 system: ideate, record, edit and publish a video in 15 minutes🔹 Why AI won't write your book — but will make you a better author🔹 Derek's take on working longer, living better, and spending less time stressedHere's the thing — AI didn't write my book. But it helped me find every podcast episode I referenced, where they appeared, and how to link them together. That's the kind of AI use that actually matters in business.Timestamps:0:00 - The retirement quote that started it all0:25 - Introducing Derek Coburn and why this conversation matters1:05 - The Two Tonys: A retirement story that changes everything4:45 - Why picking 65 as your retirement age might be the worst decision6:30 - How I used ChatGPT to analyse our pre-call conversation8:15 - Creating your own "Two Tonys" demo for your business9:40 - Derek's 7-year book writing process (and what he learned)12:50 - Using Gemini to scan my entire book manuscript14:30 - How I linked 25+ podcast transcripts to my book using AI16:45 - Derek's story about working out with his son19:20 - Ship 15: System for creating videos in 15 minutes21:00 - Repeatable reps in business (and why they matter)22:30 - Education, AI, and what this means for our kids25:00 - Final thoughts and where to find Derek's book#AmplifyAI #AIforBusiness #RetireRetirement #DerekCoburn #AIBookWriting #FounderTools #BusinessAutomationFind out more at:- https://amplifyais.com/academy- https://wearepodcast.com/- https://amplifyais.com/podcastMuch love,Ronsley

Build Trust With Borrowed Authority Using AI
2025/11/24 | 14 mins.
Hey! This is Ep#149 of Amplify Ai - Integrating Intelligence, Preserving Identity presented by Ronsley Vaz.In this episode of Amplify AI, I show you how to build one of the most important parts of your marketing system. Borrowed Authority. You have buyers who are active, ready and credit card in hand, but they still doubt whether you can actually deliver. They want the result, they have the budget, but they hesitate at the final step because they don’t yet trust your ability to get them there.That’s why Borrowed Authority exists. It fills the trust gap fast. Today I walk you through exactly how I use AI to build credibility assets at speed. You will see how I take testimonials, case studies, workshop feedback, written reviews, and real client outcomes and turn them into high trust proof that moves people from maybe to yes.I break down how to store your testimonials in project memory, how to use AI as a case study assembler, how to build 90 second case clips in Descript, how to create before and after dashboards, how to turn video testimonials into clean story driven social assets, and how to extract one liners that go straight onto your website, pitch deck, or landing pages.If you want your audience to stop asking “can you really deliver?” and start saying “when can we start?” Borrowed Authority is the system you need. And with AI, you can build it 10x faster.Timestamps00:00 Latent buyers, active buyers and the trust gap00:21 Why people with budget still don’t buy00:38 The 50k deal lost from low proof01:05 How AI helps build trust assets fast01:28 The Borrowed Authority System explained01:52 Welcome to Amplify AI02:06 Pre Suasion framework recap02:22 Understanding the four buyer states02:58 Why Borrowed Authority closes deals03:20 Your goal neutralize risk with proof that travels03:45 Assets we are creating today case clips and dashboards04:18 KPIs for trust replies, consumption and demos04:54 Why you need an AI case study assembler05:23 Collecting testimonials text, workshop, video06:02 Big names who have given testimonials06:35 Storing testimonials inside project knowledge07:05 How I use project knowledge to build assets07:36 Building 90 second case clips with Descript08:20 How I merge client footage with my explanation08:48 Before and after dashboards for credibility09:22 Showing the pain state and the desired outcome09:54 Using Gemini to create before after visuals10:18 Meeting memory AI before after example11:02 Saving 15 hours a month with AI teammates11:36 Using these assets in websites and sales funnels12:12 Testimonials, credibility, and my own background12:52 Why project knowledge boosts your entire content engine13:20 Turning testimonials into one liners for your website14:10 Why AI makes Borrowed Authority simple14:48 Outro and invite to the AI Geek community#amplifyai #presuation #borrowedauthority #aigeek #aiteammates #aiforbusiness #aiautomation #testimonials #casestudies #descript #beforeafter #credibilitybuilding #digitalmarketing #businessgrowth #trustbuildingFind out more at:- https://amplifyais.com/podcastMuch love,Ronsley
