In one morning, you will build your first AI agent. And you will never run your business the same way again.
A 4 hour, hands on workshop for Springfield entrepreneurs and business professionals who are done watching the AI wave from the shore. No coding background needed. You bring a laptop. You leave with a working agent and a system you actually understand.
The shift
Something changed in March, and most people missed it.
For years, AI just talked. You asked ChatGPT a question and it told you what to do and how to do it. Then you still had to go do it yourself.
In March of this year, that flipped. AI stopped telling you what to do and started doing it for you. That is the entire ballgame. We went from advice to labor. Free labor that works while you sleep.
I now have every part of my business running through an agentic AI system.
The people who learn it now get a 6 month head start on everyone else. The people who wait get left behind. That is not hype. That is just the math of compounding.
My story
I wasted hundreds of hours so you do not have to.
When I decided to figure this out, I hit a wall immediately. The subject of AI is so loud, with so many voices, that I had no idea what applied to me, which tool to use, or where to even start.
So I just started. I paid engineers to help me. I hit a dead end because I am not a coder and I needed a basic understanding of code to keep going with what they built. I spent hundreds of hours researching, paying for tools, and setting up things that did not work.
Eventually I found the system that actually works. The one I will teach you in this room. Every other TikTok tells you a different tool is now the best. I am going to cut through all of it and hand you the logical path, so you skip the months of expensive trial and error I went through.
What you walk out with
You will not leave with notes. You will leave with a working agent.
Your first AI agent
This can be a business assistant doing tasks you do by hand, a personal assistant, a personal health assistant, a personal finance assistant… literally whatever YOU want it to do.
The mental model
A clear mental model of how agentic AI actually works, so you can make it do what you want.
The short list of tools
The short list of tools worth your time, and the ones that will waste it.
Under $50 a month
The tools that I will recommend you use are going to cost you less than $50 per month (or even less).
The confidence to keep building
The confidence to keep building after you leave, on your own… or if you don’t want to do this on your own you will have the understanding of how to use this tool and pay someone else to implement on your behalf.
What we cover
From "I have heard of this" to "I have built one." Same morning.
The tool landscape
A brief history of the AI tools you should be using for different tasks, and the ones to stay away from because they will waste your time the way they wasted mine.
The new way of thinking
The new way of thinking. Agentic AI is not chatbot AI. You have to understand how the system works so you can set the agent up to do what you want, including the things it can technically do but should not, because they will burn through your usage tokens.
Build for your goal
How to build the agent for your goal. Everyone in the room will be chasing something different. I will teach you how to build the agent to do what you specifically need.
We build, live
We build our first agent together, live, in the room. This can be for business, or it can be a personal assistant for home activities, or it can be a personal health agent, or a personal finance agent… Whatever YOU want.
Why this is a superpower
Why every entrepreneur, business professional, and busy parent will be using these tools, and why getting ahead now is a genuine superpower.
Who this is for
Is this you?
This is for you if
- You run a business or carry real responsibility
- You are tired of the noise and want a clear path
- You are willing to roll up your sleeves for one morning
- If you want to know what to do, and pay someone else to implement for you
This is not for you if
- You want a passive lecture
- You are looking for a magic button with no learning
- You are not ready to actually use this
Proof
I am not theorizing. I am living this.
Three years ago I sold a local ad agency with more than 40 in house employees, specializing in the insurance and financial services vertical. I thought I was going to retire.
What pulled me back in is exactly what I am going to teach you. I am now doing the same work I did with 40 employees, with agentic AI and zero W2 employees. I am 100x more productive, and I am finally building the business I actually enjoy.
In the workshop I will walk you through a real case study of an agent I built to accomplish a goal that simply would not have happened without it. It makes my life 1000x easier, and it is the kind of thing you will be able to build for yourself.
From a fellow entrepreneur
Hear it from someone who knows the game.
I sat there for about twenty minutes watching his system run and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
About Landon
Landon McCarter
Founder of McCarter Collective.
I am 42 and I have spent my career building and exiting marketing companies here in Springfield and beyond. I am known around town as a cutting edge entrepreneur, a digital marketing expert, and a hard charger. My last exit was a local ad agency with over 40 in house employees. I am now running everything through agentic AI with no employees at all, and I am not slowing down.
If you can honestly say that you will not get an ROI on your time with what we go over then I will give you your money back. No hassle.
If you grasp what I teach you, it will change how you run your business and likely be the most valuable investment you have made. And the ongoing tools to run all of this cost under $100 a month when you do it the way I teach.
Pay $2,500 to get 6 months ahead. If I could have paid that to skip straight to where I am now, I would have done it in a heartbeat.

FAQ
Things people ask.
Do I need to know how to code? +
No. I am not a coder either. That was the whole problem I had to solve. You need a laptop and a willingness to follow along.
What if I use a different tool than you? +
Good. I am teaching the concept of how this works, not selling you on one tool. Whatever you land on, you will know how to make it work.
Is it really worth $2,500? +
I built a new guarantee for exactly this question. If you do not think it will save or make you $2,500 in the next 12 months, I will give you your money back. I am so sure that this will add at least that value to you or your business that I will personally guarantee this event.
What is the time commitment? +
One morning. 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM on Friday, June 26. Plus a few minutes 48 hours before to install what the prep email tells you to.
