## What does an AI consultant do for a business in San Marcos?

An AI consultant in San Marcos reviews your business's tasks, separates the ones AI can do well from the ones best left to a person, and builds agents connected to GoHighLevel and Google. With Anthony Hunt · SHAART the consultation costs $99, builds have a fixed, written price and training is in English or Spanish.

The system
- 1 Consulting: where AI saves time
- 2 Agent built on your rules
- 3 Connected to GoHighLevel and Google
- 4 Human review where it matters
- 5 Team trained in English and Spanish

## How does a San Marcos business invest in AI without overspending?

The median household income in San Marcos ($51,281) is the lowest of the six corridor cities we serve. That cuts both ways: customers compare prices before they call, and businesses watch every expense. Paying a high monthly fee for an AI platform nobody on the team uses isn't an option.

So the question isn't which tool to buy, but which task costs you the most hours: answering the same questions, putting quotes together, moving notes from every call into the CRM. And if you hire Texas State students and your team changes every semester, each new person also has to learn from scratch how the business works.

That's where AI earns its keep: one agent that answers customer questions with your approved prices, and another that answers staff questions from your documents. We start with a $99 consultation, build a single task and train your people in English or Spanish so they use it from day one.

## San Marcos by the numbers: who you're selling to

San Marcos has about 77,800 residents and is home to Texas State University. More than 42% of the population is Latino and almost a quarter speaks Spanish at home.

The university renews the market every semester and many people compare on their phone before calling. The median household income ($51,281) is the lowest of the 6 corridor cities I serve, so customers compare: the business that answers fast, explains clearly and follows up wins. San Marcos had about 1,200 employer businesses in the latest city-level count.

The Texas State SBDC has an office in San Marcos and the local chamber of commerce has more than 600 members. San Marcos sits between Kyle and New Braunfels on I-35.

- 77,830 residents (2025 est.)
- 42.2% Hispanic or Latino
- 23.3% speak Spanish at home
- 1,196 employer businesses

Share of residents who speak Spanish at home, I-35 corridor
- San Antonio 36.4 %
- Seguin 30.1 %
- Kyle 27.3 %
- San Marcos 23.3 %
- Austin 20.2 %
- New Braunfels 17.6 %

## How we work, step by step

- 1 ### 15-minute call, free You tell me which tasks take up most of your time and I tell you whether AI can help or isn't worth it.
- 2 ### Consulting and a fixed-price plan In the consultation we pick one or two tasks, and I send you in writing what gets built, with which tools, by what date and at what price.
- 3 ### Build with rules and human review We set up the agent with your documents and rules, connect it to GoHighLevel and Google, and test it with real cases from your business.
- 4 ### Training and tuning We train your team in English or Spanish, review what the agent does in its first weeks and adjust it.

## A typical AI agency vs. our approach

| | Typical AI agency | Anthony Hunt · SHAART |

| Language | Pages and service in English only | Consulting, agents and training in English and Spanish |

| Pricing | Minimum budget or a high monthly fee, no published price | Consulting from $99; builds at a fixed, written price |

| Starting point | A platform or a generic package | Your processes: first we find where AI saves time or makes money |

| Connection | A tool separate from your CRM | Connected to GoHighLevel, Google and the tools you already use |

| Control | Unclear what the AI decides | Written rules and human review where it matters |

| Experience | New agencies or national template pages | 3+ years with GoHighLevel and 26+ clients and projects between April and October 2026 |

Based on our review of AI and automation agencies in San Antonio and Austin in October 2026: most are national template pages or new agencies with few reviews, and they publish in English only.

Verified reviews

## What my clients say

Real reviews from businesses that trusted the system.

## Industries we focus on in San Marcos

### Contractors and home services

When a customer asks for three quotes, the one that arrives first and is easy to understand wins. An agent takes the request, asks for photos and measurements, and drafts the quote from your price list so you can approve it from your phone. Then it follows up if the customer goes quiet. You set the price; AI makes sure the quote doesn't wait until tomorrow.

### Clinics, med spas and salons

In San Marcos, clients compare prices and reviews on their phone before booking. AI instantly answers prices, packages and availability with information you approve, books on your calendar and hands any medical question to a person. It also works as an internal guide for your front desk: how each service is booked and which policies apply.

## How much does it cost?

In Austin we saw an AI agency with a minimum budget of $1,000 to $10,000, and a national agency with a San Antonio page charges $3,000 to $15,000 per month. We publish where you start:

- ### Strategy consultation $ 99 one-time per 1-hour session [See plan →](https://www.anthonyhunts.com/consultoria)
- ### Custom agent or build After the consultation I send you in writing what gets built, with which tools, by what date and at a fixed price. [Book a free 15-min call →](https://www.anthonyhunts.com/en/agenda)

## Frequently asked questions

The 1-hour consultation costs $99 and you leave with a plan: which task to automate first, with which tools and what it costs to build. If you move forward, the build has a fixed, written price. If the task isn't worth it, we tell you and nothing gets built.

Yes. We train owners and teams, in English or Spanish, on everyday use of Claude and ChatGPT, how to review what an agent does and how to write good instructions. It happens over video call, with examples from your own business instead of generic cases.

Yes. The Texas State SBDC has an office in San Marcos and serves small businesses across Hays County. It's a good resource for business plans and financing; we focus on the hands-on side of AI: agents, automation and training.

It's the idea of an AI that outperforms people at almost everything. People search for it because of Nick Bostrom's book and the news, but it isn't a product a small business can buy. What's real today for a Texas small business is agents and automations that do specific tasks: answer, quote, summarize, sort. That's what we build; we don't sell hype.

That's not the goal. The agent does the repetitive part, like sorting requests, summarizing calls or writing the first draft, and a person reviews what matters before it goes out: prices, quotes and sensitive replies. We define in writing what the agent decides and what always goes through someone on your team.

We agree with you, in writing, which documents and data the agent can use, which it never touches and who has access. Sensitive information is left out or goes through human review. In training we also teach your team what information should never be pasted into an AI tool.

No. We hand you a working agent and train your team in English or Spanish: how to use Claude and ChatGPT day to day, how to review what the agent does and how to ask for changes. The goal is for you to use it without depending on us for every tweak.
