For the past few days, I’ve been promoting a webinar in which a guy named Josh Rosenberg — previously a big-time ClickBank seller, then a fractional CMO for direct response businesses — lays out his new offer, “AI Super Agent,” which builds out entire info product funnels, all the research, production creation, and copy included.
Lots of people have clicked through to Josh’s offer. A fair number have signed up for the webinar. Some have bought the “AI Super Agent.”
But a good number of people are also skeptical. Here’s a comment I got from a reader:

Yeah I had the same reaction to his offer. Sounds way too biz oppy. Like every other offer in the “AI gold rush” … seems like only the shovel sellers are making any money.

There’s no doubt that Josh’s “AI Super Agent” is presented as a business opportunity, starting with the fact it’s sold via webinar, and then continuing to how it’s positioned, argumented, and priced.
Maybe you’ve been burned by a biz opp before, and have simply decided that anything that looks like that is not for you. Fair enough, and I certainly won’t try to change your mind if that’s the case.
If you’re a little less decided, I can repeat what I wrote in an email back in May.
On the one hand, jumping from biz opp to biz opp, in a chase after “passive income” or “almost passive income,” is a sure recipe for staying broke, stressed, and working too hard.
On the other hand, legitimate business opportunities do exist. You won’t know one for sure until you try it and succeed with it.
I’ve personally been sold on biz opps like copywriting, revshare deals with clients, and starting and writing an email list. Each one has ended up making me lots of money and making my life significantly more free.
How to decide if a biz opp has a chance to win you money and freedom, or is likely to keep you further away from them?
In that email back in May, I gave three questions to help you evaluate business opportunities. Let me repeat those now with Josh’s “AI Super Agent” in mind:
#1. “Is this a 5-month plan or are you ok if it turns into a 5-year plan?”
#2. “Are you building up some kind of asset regardless?”
#3. “What happens if the opportunity disappears?”
The only of those questions I can answer for you is #2.
Josh’s gizmo definitely builds up assets for you as long as you keep using it. It gives you info products you can sell that in smart ways, by partnering with clients or audience owners, the way I’ve been talking about the last few days.
But even if you don’t do that, you can sell these info products by running ads to them, or simply publishing them on Amazon and seeing which ones sell on their own.
As for the other two questions, they are yours to decide on.
Will info products as a business opportunity disappear?
Weirder things have happened, and the very tech (AI) that’s making this biz opp possible might in the end also kill it.
(My personal feeling is that people will still be paying for information for at least a few years to come.)
But even if info products do stick around for years, are you ok sticking around info products for years?
Do topics like email lists and sales pages and traffic interest you, or are you hoping to run away from them as soon as possible so you can jump into another biz opp, or into something else entirely?
I cannot answer that for you.
But if you believe that info products have a future, and if you decide it’s a future you are interested in being part of, then Josh’s thing is worth a look, in spite of its “gold rush” biz opp marketing style. For more info:
