Who’s sending it

We’re Jared and Julianna. We run Ninth Calico, and we started in December 2023 with about $10,000 and two jobs.

With our co-founder Daniel, who runs a custom fabrication company, our businesses do over $1.5M a year in sales.

Honestly, our first LIVE felt like talking to an empty room. On the second one, somebody bought. AI is part of how we run our store now, and each step of the guide shows one job to hand to it.

Why a community

Nobody figures this out alone. We didn’t either.

Our first LIVE sold nothing. What got us to the next one was having people to ask and a reason to show up again. Operators Workshop is that room, on Skool, with us in it.

Before you sign up

Is it really free?

Yes, all 14 pages. We’ll also send a few emails about selling online, AI and our community. Unsubscribe any time.

Do I need a product?

No. Page 5 covers selling someone else’s product for a commission. TikTok asks for 1,000 followers before you can apply for that.

Do I need to know AI?

No. Each step names one small job to hand to ChatGPT or Claude, and page 12 has a full prompt to paste.

Will this make me money?

We can’t promise that. Our first LIVE got zero sales. The guide shows what we do, what it costs and how to count a night afterward.

What’s the $9 deal?

Operators Workshop, our Skool community, is $9 a month right now, locked in for as long as you stay. It’s going up to $97 soon. You get 7 days free first, and you can cancel anytime. The guide is free whether you join or not. Take a look.

Is it current?

We checked the platform details on November 5, 2026. TikTok changes its rules and fees, so check your Seller Center too.
