Locations
Build your AI automation agency in your city.
The program is delivered remotely from Seattle to operators across the United States. The work you sell, the verticals you serve, and the sales cycles you run depend on your local market — so here is a city-by-city operator brief.
We start with six anchor metros and add cities as our operator base expands. Each brief is written from real local market knowledge, not templated.
Metro briefs
6 cities. More on the way.
Seattle, Washington
AutomateNexus is based here. The Seattle metro is one of the densest concentrations of SMB owners willing to spend on AI automation — and one of the most direct cultures to sell into in the country. If you live here, this is your market.

Law firms · Behavioral health practices · Trades & field services · Real estate brokerages
Austin, Texas
Austin is the highest-density SMB-formation metro in the country and one of the most automation-receptive markets you can sell into. The talent pool is here. The capital is here. The buyers are here. If you live in Central Texas, this is the easiest market in America to launch into.
Top niches
Real estate brokerages + investor networks · Boutique law firms + professional services · Trades & home services · Healthcare-services SMBs
Phoenix, Arizona
Phoenix runs hot in two senses: weather and SMB growth. The metro added more residents than San Francisco and Los Angeles combined over the last decade, and the SMBs serving them are scaling fast — and short on operators. If you live in the Valley, this is one of the highest-leverage launch markets in the country.
Top niches
HVAC, plumbing, electrical contractors · Real estate brokerages · Dental DSOs + healthcare practices · Behavioral health practices
Atlanta, Georgia
Atlanta is the SMB anchor of the Southeast: 6 million people, the South's densest professional-services economy, and a deep trades + healthcare base spanning suburbs that many people forget are part of the metro. If you live anywhere from Marietta to Alpharetta to Decatur, you are already inside one of the most launch-friendly markets in the country.

Boutique law firms · Trades & home services · Healthcare practices + DSOs · Real estate brokerages
Chicago, Illinois
Chicago is the third-largest metro in the country and the SMB capital of the Midwest. The mix is unusually deep: industrial-services businesses, professional services, healthcare systems, real estate, and a sprawling suburban operator base. If you live in Chicagoland, you have access to one of the most stable SMB markets in America.
Top niches
Boutique + mid-size law firms · Trades & home services · Real estate brokerages · Healthcare admin + practices
New York City
New York is the largest SMB market in the United States. It is also the most demanding. Sales cycles are tight, expectations are high, and competition is real. The upside is that engagement fees here are 30–50% higher than national averages, and a single closed deal in the Tri-State pays for months of operating cost.

The program is delivered remotely.
Every weekly call, every async coaching message, every milestone review happens over Zoom and shared workspaces. You can be in any US metro and run the program. The metro briefs above exist because your local SMB market shapes the verticals and the sales cycle — not because the program is geographically limited. If your city is not listed, your operator playbook is the closest metro brief plus your own local knowledge.
