Market Opportunity
Small businesses lose leads because nobody answers after hours. AI chatbots handle FAQs, book appointments, and qualify leads 24/7. Most business owners don't know how to set them up — you fill that gap.
The Idea
Build and deploy AI chatbots for local businesses using no-code platforms. The bot answers common questions, collects contact info, and books appointments. Charge a setup fee ($500–1,500) plus monthly maintenance ($99–299). Target real estate agents, clinics, salons, and service businesses.
Key to Success
- Start with ONE niche (e.g., dental clinics) and perfect the chatbot template for that vertical
- Use the business's existing FAQ page to train the bot — minimal data entry needed
- Offer a free 7-day trial bot with limited features to prove the value before charging
