Welcome to the Age of Vibe Consulting

How AI just made traditional consulting obsolete

July 19, 2025

Read Time: 5 minutes

I just witnessed the death of an entire industry.

Traditional consulting—the $300 billion industry built on expensive human labor—just became obsolete overnight.

Not because consultants aren't smart.

Because AI became smarter.

What used to require teams of analysts, researchers, and specialists can now be done by one person with the right AI tools.

That's when I realized: We're not just consultants anymore.

We're Vibe Consultants.

What Is Vibe Consulting?

Traditional consulting is expensive labor.

You pay consultants $200-500/hour to do work that AI can now do in minutes.

Vibe Consulting is different.

It's using AI to leverage both client acquisition and client delivery.

The Old Way: • Identify business issues (human) • Research solutions (human) • Create implementation plans (human) • Execute and deliver (human)

The Vibe Way: • Identify business issues (human insight + AI analysis) • Research solutions (AI-powered deep research) • Create implementation plans (AI-generated templates + human strategy) • Execute and deliver (AI automation + human oversight)

Same outcomes. Fraction of the time. Massive profit margins.

Let’s dive into some of the use cases.

The Content Creation Revolution

Here's how AI transformed my content business:

Before AI: • Research: 4 hours • Scriptwriting: 3 hours
• Video editing: 6 hours • Thumbnails: 2 hours • Social posts: 2 hours • Total: 17 hours per video

After AI: • Research: 15 minutes (Perplexity) • Scriptwriting: 10 minutes (Poppy AI) • Video editing: 20 minutes (Opus Pro) • Thumbnails: 5 minutes (AI generation) • Social posts: 5 minutes (Claude) • Total: 55 minutes per video

Same quality. 18x faster. 160x cheaper. Get the tool here.

The Business Process Revolution

But content is just the beginning. Every industry has inefficient workflows that AI can optimize.

Healthcare Administration: • Patient scheduling and follow-ups • Insurance claim processing • Medical record analysis • Treatment plan optimization

Supply Chain Management: • Inventory forecasting and optimization • Vendor communication and negotiation • Quality control and compliance • Logistics route planning

Financial Services: • Risk assessment and analysis • Compliance reporting and monitoring • Client onboarding and KYC processes • Investment research and recommendations

The Pattern: Manual processes that take hours can be automated to take minutes.

The Vibe Consulting Opportunity

Every industry expert can become a Vibe Consultant.

The Process:

  1. Identify inefficiencies in your industry (you already know these)

  2. Map AI solutions to those problems

  3. Create AI-powered workflows that solve them

  4. Sell the audit and strategy (human expertise)

  5. Deliver the implementation (AI execution + human oversight)

Who Can Become a Vibe Consultant: • Healthcare professionals who see administrative waste • Supply chain experts who know bottlenecks • Financial advisors who understand compliance pain • Marketing professionals who see repetitive tasks • Operations managers who know process inefficiencies

You don't need to learn AI development. You need to learn AI leverage.

The Rampd Case Study

At my last company, two people generated $1.5M in profit using this exact approach.

What We Automated: • Outbound campaigns and lead generation • Client document creation and templates • Sales scripts and objection handling • Competitive research and analysis • Process audits and recommendations

What Stayed Human: • Sales conversations and relationship building • Strategic thinking and problem-solving • Client interviews and discovery • High-level consulting and guidance

The Result: 80% AI execution, 20% human strategy. Massive margins.

The Tools That Enable Everything

Research and Analysis:Perplexity: Deep industry research • Claude: Document analysis and creation • ChatGPT: Process mapping and optimization

Content and Communication:Poppy AI: Personalized content generation • Opus Pro: Video editing automation • AI writing tools: Email sequences and proposals

Workflow Automation:Custom AI agents: Process automation • Template libraries: Instant document creation • Integration tools: System connectivity

The Investment: $200/month in AI tools replaces $20,000/month in human labor.

The Mindset Shift

Traditional consultants think in hours. Vibe Consultants think in outcomes.

Traditional consultants sell time. Vibe Consultants sell results.

Traditional consultants compete on expertise. Vibe Consultants compete on leverage.

The Question: Are you selling your time or your intelligence?

The Future Is Now

Traditional consultants charge $300/hour and deliver in weeks. Vibe Consultants charge $5,000-$50,000/project and deliver in days.

The entrepreneurs making millions aren't working harder. They're working smarter.

The Choice: • Stay traditional and compete on time • Become a Vibe Consultant and compete on results

Every day you wait, someone in your industry is building the AI solution that makes traditional approaches obsolete.

Next week, I'll show you exactly how to conduct your first AI audit and identify the biggest automation opportunities in any business—including the questions to ask and the red flags that signal massive AI potential.

But for now, ask yourself:

🤖 What inefficiencies in your industry could AI solve? 🤖 How much time are you wasting on tasks AI could do better?

Your answers determine whether you're building the future or getting left behind.

See you next week,
