From not knowing how to make a Telegram bot to building AI automations. My TS Academy story. In February this year, I didn't know what AI automation was. Around February 20th, I came across a post from @elewachii Emmanuel. People kept asking him to explain AI automation in a way they could actually understand, so he put it all into one PDF: "AI Automation for Absolute Beginners." ₦5,000. I bought it a few days later. The email that came with the book said something I still remember. Reading it wouldn't make me an expert. Saving it to my phone and forgetting it wouldn't get me clients. The only way it works is if you read the concepts and open a canvas and start building. That was my first real exposure. And it clicked. Businesses were spending hours on work a system could do in seconds, and people were getting paid to build those systems. A few months later, a post came across my timeline. People were thanking their tutor, @errah_didit Chidera Okonkwo, and thanking TS Academy for the scholarships that got them into the program. I got curious. I went to the TS Academy page on X, then to their website, and found the scholarship page. Each scholarship was sponsored by someone, and you chose your sponsor when applying. I picked @aproko_doctor . Then I chose AI Automation from the list of courses, filled the form, and waited. About a weeks later, the email came. I'd been selected for a scholarship. All that was left was ₦26,500 for my learning platform access. I paid immediately. Classes were supposed to start in April. They moved to June. Three months later, at the end of September, we wrapped up. It wasn't easy. I was already in a virtual assistant bootcamp when TS started, so my weeks looked like this: Thursday, 6–8pm: TS Academy Friday, 6–8pm: VA bootcamp Saturday, 9–11am: TS Academy Saturday, 6–9pm: VA bootcamp Sunday, 6–9pm: VA bootcamp Plus assignments for both. Some weeks I didn't know which class I was preparing for. But this is what came out of it. When I started, I couldn't create an ordinary Telegram bot. I didn't know what a workflow was, or a webhook, or an API. Now I've built: → A voice assistant on Telegram. I send a voice note, it books, checks or cancels events on my Google Calendar → An AI inbox assistant that labels every email, drafts replies, and pings my phone when something is urgent → A Monday briefing that summarizes my inbox and my week, and lands in Telegram at 8am → An AI lead qualifier that scores leads Hot, Warm or Cold and updates HubSpot. Last week it was picked as the #1 AI agent use case of the day on Ideabot I won't call myself an expert. I still hit errors every week. But I build things that work, and when they break, I know how to find out why and fix it. Funny enough, the two courses ended up fitting together. In the VA bootcamp, I learned to do admin work by hand: inboxes, calendars, CRM, reports. At TS Academy, I learned to automate that same work. On October 28th, I graduate. @errah_didit Mr Chidera, thank you for your patience and for teaching in a way that made sense to someone starting from zero. @aproko_doctor , thank you for sponsoring my scholarship. You opened a door I couldn't have opened on my own. @TechSphereAcad TS Academy, thank you for the platform, the structure, and the push. @elewachii , your ₦5,000 PDF started all of this. What's next: landing my first clients and building more in public. Every workflow I build, I'll share here. If you're where I was in February, curious but confused, just start. Apply for the scholarship. Open the canvas and build something small. #MyTSAcademyStory #GraduatingWithTS #AIAutomation #n8n

Alright seems like today is the day me and System prompt go battle am.

Every time I sit down to build, and I add a node, connect everything, and finally execute it successfully, I can’t help but feel so happy and proud. At that moment, one person always comes to mind, my tutor. Thank you so much @errah_didit

God, I need $4,000k

The worst part of every project is if you need Meta API.
