3 VIDEOS. ZERO
TO BUILDING
AI AGENTS.

Skip Netflix tonight. Watch these 3 YouTube videos in order and go from total beginner to building agentic AI with Claude.

All three are from the last few months on purpose. Claude moves so fast that older tutorials teach the wrong thing. Recency is the whole point.

Quick note before the list: these 3 get you 90% of the way on your own. But if you would rather skip the learning curve and just have the AI workflows and agents built for your business, that is what I do. Reply to this email or DM me LEARN and I will point you at the fastest path for your setup.

THE 3, IN ORDER

THE ORDER MATTERS.

Use Claude (Cowork) → build with Claude Code → agentic AI. Skip a step and the next one will not click. Do them in order.

THE OPERATOR ANGLE

You do not need to become a developer. You need enough to do two things: spot where AI saves you hours, and brief a person or an agent to build it. These 3 get you there.

THAT IS THE LADDER

Watch these 3 and you are ahead of almost everyone. Or if you would rather have the agents built for your business instead of doing it yourself, reply to this email or DM me LEARN. That is the job.
