Hand Claude Code a website and an ad budget to run on its own
A web developer gave Claude Code a baseline site, ad accounts with a budget, and scraping tools, and lets it make marketing decisions every four hours.

Who it’s for
People who build or maintain software, and non-developers who want a small tool made for them.
Adapt it to your industry
- Shop owner: a small script that exports orders to a spreadsheet every night
- Agency: a reusable starter template for client websites
- Healthcare or legal office: a simple internal form that saves to a shared sheet
Step by step
- Install Cursor (cursor.com) or Claude Code, and open an empty folder for this project.
- Write a one-paragraph description of what you want in a file called README.md: who uses it, what goes in, what comes out.
- Open the AI chat panel and paste the prompt below, then let it propose a plan before it writes any code.
- Ask it to build the smallest working version first and run it. Paste any error message straight back into the chat.
- Test it with one real example from your work and write down what is wrong.
- Ask for one fix at a time. After each working change, save a copy (for example with “git commit”).
- When it works, ask the AI to write short instructions so a teammate can run it.

How to make money from it
Pricing idea: Sell it as a small tool: a one-time setup fee plus a low monthly price for hosting and fixes, or a self-serve plan from about $10–50 a month.
Finding your first 10 customers
- Fix a real problem for 3 people you already know, for free, in exchange for honest feedback.
- Post a short demo video where your audience hangs out (X, LinkedIn, Reddit, a Slack or Discord group).
- Ask each happy user for one introduction to someone with the same problem.
