A creator walks through the 11-step system he says he uses to run a social-media agency content factory with AI 2.0 and its Cue agent, using his own VGC brand from setup to reporting. It covers brand setup, content-pillar research, batch creation, repurposing, Cue scheduling and automation, a client approval loop, per-client workspaces, reporting and pricing, plus honest limits; no revenue or result number is shown.
Working from a machine an agent had never run well, the AI set up his home server stack over Telegram voice messages: SSH, Docker, Traefik, certificates, split horizon DNS and local models. It also runs his house watching through Frigate and a solar dashboard he can check from his phone.
Clinton Stark had his AI Musey research skin cream for his wife Loni, recommend alternatives, and buy one on Amazon using his account on September 19. It was the first time an agent had purchased anything for the household — and it landed the night before Amazon began blocking the AI from its store.

Builder Omar Villalobos says a client was losing 70% of its quotes because everything lived in scattered WhatsApp chats, so he built three parts with AI: a WhatsApp-linked form that auto-updates a CRM instead of manual copying, a pipeline dashboard showing $1.28M at stake with follow-ups due and won deals, and an ROI calculator showing a client their investment, monthly gain and payback. No recovery of the lost quotes is claimed yet.
Jack created a recurring daily website-check goal by chat in about a minute, then deleted it by chat. The Goals tab itself was slow to load (once 25 seconds, once stuck on placeholders).
