## Gary Club community

Gary Club brings together people who want to build income, systems, and businesses that give them more of their lives back. Its primary approaches are investing, leverage, AI, and entrepreneurship. The mission predates today's AI tools, and the methods can evolve.

Membership includes live sessions, member conversations, training and session recordings, a member directory, and The Herd's live audio conversations. Members can bring business questions, explore ideas, and learn from others who are building.

Monthly and lifetime membership are offered subject to availability. Both provide access to the community, live sessions, and training. Monthly membership renews monthly and can be canceled. Lifetime is a one-time payment for a Giraffe Tower membership; access follows the membership held. Card checkout is available. Current prices and availability are shown at https://gary.club/get-involved and can change. The signed-in purchase page offers the same membership at /dashboard/buy.

## Luna, the AI operator

Luna is an AI character represented by a consistent human-style face. She is already at work inside Gary Club. A custom AI operator can be built, trained, and managed around another business, with its own identity and brand voice.

Her five lanes are:
- Sales: outreach, qualification, and follow-up.
- Marketing: content and the work that keeps a business visible.
- Community: welcoming people, answering questions, and keeping conversations moving.
- Customer service: routine questions and support, with human escalation when needed.
- Executive assistance: email, meetings, notes, and follow-through.

Community membership and a custom operator for your business are separate offers. Start with the public Luna page for capabilities and next steps: https://gary.club/luna.

### Latest Luna milestones

Reviewed September 27, 2026. These milestones span Gary Club, the Austin network and custom operators. Available tools depend on the operator's setup and permissions.

- September: Learned to run an audience warm-up on her own. Plays a client's own Reels as video ads to cold, warm and hot Instagram audiences, adds each new Reel as it is posted, swaps out the ones that stop earning views and leans the budget toward the audience that responds, checking every hour and never changing the daily total.
- September: Learned to inspect the page behind the ad. Audits real mobile and desktop landing-page journeys from the ads desk or assistant chat, drafts specific improvements, and checks the report against captured evidence before marking it ready; implementation uses the client’s connected editing tools and existing approval workflow.
- September: Learned to work from your own address. Runs a mailbox on your own domain alongside her own, replies from whichever one the conversation started in, and checks who really sent each message before she acts on it.
- September: Learned to do it your way once you show her. Teach the assistant a process once and she saves it as a playbook, recognises the request next time and follows your steps; every morning she also reviews her own conversations, learns from what went badly and flags what she still cannot do to the team that builds her.
- September: Learned from every connection she makes. When she works out how to connect a tool, the way in, the documentation and what worked are shared with every operator (never a key), so the next business is connected in one press; the directory of tools she can work in grows every week.
- September: Learned to set up her own tools with you. Tell the assistant what you use and she researches the way in and connects it: one sign-in click for dozens of tools such as Beehiiv, Notion, Stripe, Canva, Calendly and Zapier, or a guided key card with the exact steps when a tool has no sign-in, checked before it is kept; that includes your own mailbox by address and password, and a live web browser on your own Browserbase account.
- September: Learned to take instructions like an assistant. Clients message their operator in the portal and it does the work, streaming each step; anything that would reach another person waits for their Approve, and what it cannot do yet is filed with our team automatically.
- September: Learned to connect new tools from a conversation. Paste a tool's address, a key or a sign-in and the operator connects it: MCP servers, sign-in based services and plain web APIs, with keys kept on the client's own server and any change to another service held for approval.
- September: Learned to read what you hand it and to listen. Files, PDFs, spreadsheets and screenshots dropped into the conversation are read; requests can be dictated or spoken hands-free, and replies read aloud in the operator's own approved voice.
- September: Learned to test new creative properly. Connected ads clients can put challengers up against the ad that already works: each challenger gets its own paused ad set with its own small budget, carrying the proven audience and every exclusion, inside the existing campaign or in a new one, named and tagged the way the client already names and tags.
- September: Learned to warm up an audience with the client's own posts. Reads the posts a client already published, ranks them by lift over their own average, and boosts the best into one paused ad set aimed at the lead audience with the people already converted excluded, so the retargeting pool keeps filling.
- September: Learned to know everyone from the owner's calls. Every meeting she attends, and every notes email the owner forwards from Gemini or another notetaker, becomes part of what she knows: who each person is, their company, what was said and what is still owed, so a question like "what's Zach's last name" is answered from the record; she only records a person by full name or email and never guesses one.
- September: Learned to do the work after the call. The owner tells her once in chat what to do after every meeting, like agenda items for next time or tasks for the team with who owns each, and she does it for each call she attends and emails it with the notes; anything addressed to someone else waits for their approval.
- September: Learned to read the client's own analytics. With PostHog connected she reads what the site recorded under each ad's tags, registrations and purchases later than the pixel can see, lets the client confirm which event is a lead, and says plainly when nothing is connected.
- September: Learned to use the automations you already built. Can start a client’s own Zaps and n8n workflows, and receive work from them in return, so one connection reaches every tool they had already wired together; with n8n she also reads which workflows are failing. Starting one is gated: off by default, then per-approval, then on its own.
- September: Learned to read the whole sales team's calls. Reads the calls a team already records in Fathom on each person's own key, since a Fathom key only reaches its owner's recordings; a call two of them were both on is counted once, and what was promised on it can become something she owes.
- September: Learned to act on an audience opening instead of only reporting it. When one age and gender slice is cheaper and starved, she builds it its own ad set inside the same campaign, copying the proven audience and every exclusion on it, created switched off until the client approves and turns it on.
- September: Learned to keep exploring ad audiences. Connected ads clients can research available targeting, review lookalike creation and bounded audience tests, and compare audience and creative combinations without mistaking early differences for proven winners.
- September: Learned to work toward measurable ads goals. Connected ads clients can define cost, scaling and delivery targets, review a strategy, track progress and permit supported actions within explicit limits; outcomes remain measured, not guaranteed.
- September: Learned to build private ads reports. Clients in the connected ads workspace can ask for custom metrics and reports, calculated and saved on their operator’s box using its OpenRouter connection; missing capabilities become review requests.
- September: Learned to find the ground nobody is standing on. Compares available placement, age and country data for lead campaigns, flags possible waste and untested audiences, and estimates opportunities with stated limits.
- September: Learned to run a desk of specialists. Thirteen analysts read a paid account every few hours, one lane each, and she arbitrates where they disagree into a single ranked plan.
- September: Learned to check whether her own changes worked. Compares eligible changes over equal reporting windows, reports observed results, and can reverse her own changes within the client’s permissions.
- September: Learned to hand over what she cannot do herself. Where the platform gives her no safe lever, she supplies the edit and a link to Meta, then checks delivery evidence when enough data is available.
- September: Learned to deliver finished documents. Turns complete meeting transcripts into checked, branded PDFs and attaches them to follow-up emails.
- September: Learned to bring her inboxes together. Handles both Luna mailboxes through one follow-up system, with replies and real file attachments.
- September: Learned to research an introduction. Checks shared websites and public sources when introduced to someone in the Austin network, so they have less to explain.
- September: Learned to show work in progress. Gives Gary a private view of active work, next steps and completion evidence across connected tools.
- September: Learned to connect over iMessage. Welcomes people into the Austin network and helps make relevant introductions, with permission before private messages.
- September: Learned to take coaching in conversation. Lets custom-operator owners update a sales call’s wording, offers and guardrails in the training workspace, and confirms what actually changed.
- September: Learned to rehearse sales calls. Lets custom operators practice against a business’s own sales process, receive scores and apply coaching before taking real calls.
