This is Ep 143 of Amplify Ai - Integrating Intelligence, Preserving Identity presented by Ronsley Vaz.Watch Me Build This Into a Complete AI-Powered Framework - "Good Marketing Makes Sales Easy”Picture this: You're at an event, you scribble down one brilliant idea, and then... it sits in your notebook collecting dust. Sound familiar?Not this time. I had one simple note from Los Cabo: "Persuasion Marketing makes sales easy." Instead of letting it die in my notebook, I decided to do something radical - turn that single insight into a complete business strategy using AI, and film the ENTIRE process so you could watch over my shoulder.This isn't some polished, after-the-fact tutorial. This is raw, authentic AI usage in action. You'll literally watch me go from idea → research → framework → actionable strategy in real-time.

It's going to become a complete video series where I show you how to create every single asset mentioned. You're getting the blueprint AND watching the construction in real-time.📋 The AI Arsenal I Used:- Perplexity AI (the research powerhouse)- Edith (our custom AI assistant - yes, I'll show you how to build your own)- The foundational principles that actually make AI work⏰ TIMESTAMPS:[00:00] The Mexico revelation that changed everything[01:00] Why AI isn't just "fancy autocomplete" (the 8 fields breakdown)[03:00] Live framework creation using AI[12:00] Behind-the-scenes: Exact prompts and process[17:00] What's coming next (spoiler: it gets better)🚨 Fair Warning: If you're looking for another "AI will do everything for you" fantasy, keep scrolling.
