Hey, Joey here.

You know what’s wild?

Your clients — the people you love but secretly want to throttle when they send “just following up!” emails at 7am — are the source of most of your headaches.

But also… your income.

So the goal?

Keep them happy, without losing your sanity.

Good news: AI is finally good enough to actually help with that.

8 Client Problems AI Can Solve Instantly

Let’s be honest.

Most of your biggest headaches?

They come with a client name attached to them.

(No shade — they pay the bills.)

But if you can keep your clients happy without drowning in admin, inbox tag, and endless follow-ups…

You win. They win. Everyone wins.

This is where AI starts feeling less like a buzzword and more like a secret weapon for us service providers.

Here’s a rapid-fire list of client problems AI can solve right now — with way less effort than you think. 👇

Problem #1: Email Time Vampire

You ever wish Gmail had a “Screen Time” tracker?

Mine would be 3 hours a day and at least 35 “pickups.”

Good news: AI has your back on this one.

Set up an automation to pre-draft your email replies.

No, I don’t recommend letting ChatGPT send them without you reviewing (we’re not animals).

But when AI does the heavy lifting, you just tweak and hit send.

Inbox zero is here.

Problem #2: Proposal Generation (Now Automated)

I’m not going to go super-techy on you here.

But here’s the play:

  1. AI listens to your sales call

  2. Fills in your proposal template

  3. Sends it to you for approval

  4. Emails the final proposal to the client

What used to take me an hour now takes minutes.

Templates are good. AI filling these templates? Chef’s kiss.

Problem #3: Client Onboarding, But Make It Sexy

Client onboarding forms are boring for you and them.

But what if you let AI handle it like a smooth-talking assistant?

  • Set up a CustomGPT to collect onboarding info conversationally.

  • Let clients answer with voice notes instead of typing out essays.

  • Get better data, make onboarding painless, and impress your clients from day one.

Win-win.

Problem #4: Invoicing Without the Drama

Invoicing isn’t hard, it’s just annoying.

AI can draft the invoice, fill in the details (assuming you’ve got client info handy), and prep it for you to send.

Not the biggest time saver, but it’s the small wins that add up.

Problem #5: Never Answer FAQs Again

Your clients mean well.

But man, they love asking the same things over and over.

Instead of sending them another Loom, set up a CustomGPT as your 24/7 FAQ assistant.

It’s like giving them your brain on demand — and it becomes a huge value-add for your service.

Problem #6: Visuals

Need to explain a funnel or workflow but don’t speak Canva?

AI image generation has your back.

Use it to whip up quick visuals to explain concepts or show your designer exactly what you’re imagining.

Here’s one I made to explain a webinar funnel:

Good enough to get the point across.

And saves you 30 minutes Googling “workflow diagram template.”

Problem #7: Reporting & Data Without the Snooze Fest

Who has time to dig through dashboards? Not you.

AI will pull reports, summarize the important bits, and even tell you what the data means.

It’s like having a junior analyst on speed dial (minus the finance degree).

Bonus: it leaves you more time to AI-generate studio Ghibli style profile pics.

Problem #8: Market Research Without the Rabbit Holes

New client? Unfamiliar industry? Time to do some digging.

AI tools like ChatGPT or Perplexity can do the “deep search”.

  • Competitors

  • Market trends

  • What the cool kids are doing

It cuts your research time way down and saves you from drowning in tabs.

That’s a wrap! 8 annoying client problems, solved by AI.

No excuses left. Go try one. 😉
