I brought on Nick Vasilescu, co-founder of Orgo, and we built out the complete blueprint for a one-person managed AI agent business that can hit $50K a month in recurring revenue. The model is straightforward: charge $5K per month per client for unlimited agents, unlimited tokens, and unlimited infrastructure. You handle everything so the business owner never has to think about what a token is or how to set up Hermes. We walk through the full stack, the offer, how to find and close clients, how to onboard them using an effort versus impact matrix, and how to deploy and manage agent fleets on Orgo. Nick even sets up a Hermes agent from scratch in twenty-six seconds live on screen. If you want a business you can start this week with skills you already have, this episode gives you the whole thing.
