After 50+ builders packed the shop for our kickoff, one thing is clear: Jersey City is ready for more Third Space experiences focused on building.

For our next session, we’re moving from basic workflows to revenue growth: How to use AI to actually get more customers.

On Saturday, May 30th, we’re hosting Akintunde Opaleye (2x founder & mind behind SalesParrot) for a hands-on workshop to build an AI-powered growth system that finds prospects, starts real conversations, and books meetings while you sleep.

No theory. Just systems.

What to expect:
• The Growth Blueprint 🗺️ | Move from manual hustle to a repeatable sales motion.
• Live Implementation 💻 | Bring your laptop. We are building these systems live in the shop.
• Relationship-Led AI 🤝 | Learn how to automate outreach without sounding robotic or spammy.
• The Kọ Perk 🥐 | Order from the menu and unlock exclusive promo codes for the tools covered.

Whether you’re a founder, freelancer, creator, or sales lead—if your growth still relies on manual follow-ups, you need to be in the room.

No coding required. All levels are welcome. Seats are limited!

📅 DATE: Saturday, May 30th
⏰ TIME: 12:30 PM ET
📍 LOCATION: Kọ Café, Jersey City (722 Grand Street)
