Most AI Agencies Are Selling You Hype — Here’s How I Actually Onboard Clients | Connor with Honor
Description
Everybody is selling “AI solutions” right now…
But most business owners are getting sold the wrong bill of goods.
In this episode, Connor MacIvor (Connor with Honor) breaks down how AI onboarding should actually be done for real businesses — from real estate agents and lenders to roofers, electricians, salons, coaches, and local service companies.
This is not another “AI is magic” sales pitch.
This is a real-world walkthrough of the process Connor uses at Honor AI Labs to help businesses:
- stop losing leads
- stop missing calls
- build better follow-up systems
- improve local visibility
- and use AI as a tool (without breaking what already works)
If you’ve been bombarded by AI promises and don’t know who to trust, this episode is for you.
In this episode, Connor covers:
- Why most AI setups fail before they even start
- The #1 issue hurting local businesses: missed calls
- Why AI should be guided by human rules (not just turned on and left alone)
- How compliance matters (especially in industries like lending and finance)
- The right way to evaluate your current stack before adding AI
- CRM integration without forcing you to abandon what already works
- AI voice systems, AI website agents, and 24/7 booking workflows
- Automated lead capture from social media keyword triggers
- Why client nurturing and retention matter more than just “getting leads”
- How to structure websites and funnels for AEO / GEO / AI search visibility
- Why AI search (ChatGPT, Grok, Copilot, Claude, Gemini, etc.) changes everything
- The importance of schema, structured data, and local authority signals
- Why now is the time to build before the market gets saturated
Connor also explains his onboarding flow step-by-step:
- Initial call and discovery
- Zoom consultation
- Full business system audit
- AI opportunity mapping
- Build strategy and implementation plan
- Testing, deployment, and continuous updates
This episode is a must-listen for:
- Real estate agents
- Mortgage lenders
- Home service pros
- Local business owners
- Coaches and consultants
- Anyone who wants AI integrated the right way
If you want AI that actually helps your business grow — and not just another shiny object — this episode will show you what to look for and what questions to ask.
Stay honorable.
