The "43 Ways to Make Money with AI" funnel atlas, filtered through the dual lens (revenue path, nervous-system-per-hour) and ratified by Dwad on Aug 1. Companion to The $10K MRR Route: that page names the route, this one names the menu.
Verdict: the deck's one real teaching is that every funnel ends in a retainer, and the Aug 7 pitch is now shaped accordingly. Fractional AI Officer (#16) is the MRR play: salary-like $5K/mo, milestone bonuses, "who owns this plan?" close, 3-4 client cap. Teaching (#01) enters the NOW tier by Dwad's call, first rep gated on Day 90 clearing. Community plays stay dead through The 100. First-pass judgment killed 35 of 43 on stale freeze rules; Dwad caught it, the redo below is lens-only.
| # | Model | Why now |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | Teaching Claude Code | Dwad's elevation. Projector-shaped, EO/YPO warm room, proof inventory exists. Feeds every other funnel. First rep after Aug 4. |
| 02 | AI Roadmaps | The audit's natural next step, already in the g2g ladder. |
| 03 | AI Audits | g2g core product. New: free 15-min mini-audit Loom joins GapScore as the personal top-of-funnel. |
| 08 | Company OS | The fCAIO delivery shape. Department-pilot pattern is the next VGL sale. |
| 16 | Fractional AI Officer | THE MRR play. LMS Day-90 graduation. 3 clients at $6K/mo = $216K/yr, capped at 3-4 so scarcity is honest. |
| 28 | Voice Agency | Lisa exists. The deck's ladder ($1-3K setup + $500-1.5K/mo) validates her pricing and the Plan-B decouple. |
| # | Model | Trigger |
|---|---|---|
| 05 | Appointment Setting | Lisa's booking layer ships for LMS |
| 07 | Second Brain aaS | An EO peer asks about the vault (they will) |
| 17 | Makeover Specialist | Constraint-diagnostic framing folds into g2g positioning now, offer later |
| 19 | Funnels DFY | Only as a productized audit add-on |
| 23 | AI Bootcamp | 2-3 workshop reps prove the teaching lane |
| 25 | Internal Apps | "What's on your approved backlog?" asked inside VGL/LMS |
| 29 | Enterprise OS | A 200+ person prospect appears |
| 30 | Lead Reactivation | Any client with a dormant CRM |
| 31 | Finance Tools (WuWei) | Standing trading exception; bear-market timeline governs |
| 34 | RFP Drafting | A tender-running firm surfaces (movers, Gerry's world) |
Priority on paper. First workshop (EO Forum session or paid VGL team workshop) books only after LMS Day 90 clears. One 90-minute rep answers whether it energizes or drains.
Freeze-and-name the LMS build for the movers vertical only if a second mover shows up organically. Not before.
A community is a customer-facing commitment that never sleeps. Revisit after Sep 22 with real audience data from teaching + LinkedIn.
