Begin with a "leveraged agency" model, unlike traditional VC-backed startups, this method starts with manual service delivery to understand edge cases. Then implement AI agents to automate processes while maintaining pricing. And finally scale through multiple tiers and content distribution. This approach allows founders to be profitable from month one, retain equity, and build based on real customer pain points.
