Most AI automation creators push the same offer: “AI receptionist to capture missed calls.”

So I tested it at scale.

I emailed 10,000 dental offices across North America with a simple permission-ask message and got **0 replies**.

In this video you’ll learn:
Why “missed calls” is usually not the real pain for local businesses
The first-principles breakdown of why this offer dies in cold email
What local businesses actually pay for (the upstream domino)
The simplest validation test before you build any AI agent

Key takeaway:
Businesses don’t buy automation. They buy booked appointments, revenue, and relief.
