How We Built a 24/7 AI Marketing Machine That Posts to 8 Platforms Every Day

A custom OpenClaw deployment for a trades marketing company. 5 AI agents, automated content across 8 platforms, AI-generated images, HighLevel integration, and zero manual posting.

The Client

Jerry Napolitano — Founder, GerardiAI

Engineering degree from Wentworth Institute of Technology · 15 years in the electrical trade + quality engineering at Intel, Lucent, Motorola

Named After His Father's Sign Business:

Signs by Gerardi — carrying the family name into the AI era.

Trades Served:

  • Electricians & HVAC
  • Plumbers & Roofers
  • Remodelers & Painters
  • Landscapers & Concrete/Masonry

The Challenge

Trade business owners don't have time to be marketers. They're on the job site, hands full of tools. Meanwhile, their competition is posting content daily across social media while they're pulling wire and fixing pipes.

The Need

A system that could generate original, on-brand content for trade businesses across 8 platforms every single day — with AI-generated images, platform-specific formatting, and human approval before publishing. No more $2-5K/month agencies delivering generic content.

The Problem

The Challenge

The traditional approach for trade businesses: hire a social media manager or agency at $2-5K/month, get generic content that doesn't understand the trades, and still have to review everything manually.

Most trade business owners are too busy running their operations to think about marketing. They're on ladders, under sinks, and on rooftops. Their phones are in their pockets, not in their hands scheduling Instagram posts.

Jerry needed something fundamentally different — a system that could generate original, on-brand content for trade businesses across 8 platforms every single day, with AI-generated images, platform-specific formatting, and human approval before publishing.
