Can I show you AI businesses that are earning people $500 a day, $1,000 a day, and sometimes even over $2,000 per day that can be started with free AI tools?
And can I show you what these tools are, including some tools you’ve probably never even heard about so that you can use them, too. Well, that’s the challenge I have set myself today. And I think your time is valuable, and I don’t want to waste even one second of it. So, let’s just jump straight into it. And we’ll start with the first free business idea, Adult AI Bedtime Stories. Okay, this one is particularly crazy because I’ve seen people earn tens of thousands of dollars a month just one month after starting this. It’s insane and frankly I find it quite interesting to see how they’re doing it. Yep. So, let me show you. The idea itself is simple. People are creating videos that are getting millions of views by using AI to generate calming story videos on niche topics such as medieval history or video games, psychology, mysteries, science, or even Spongebob lore. These are long videos aimed at adults who want something soothing to put on in the background. People often fall asleep to these videos or put them on as they do chores around the house, that sort of thing. For example, this channel here specializes in bedtime stories for adults focused on the science niche.
They uploaded this video 3 months ago sharing 100 facts about space told as a single bedtime story and it’s already had over 1.3 million views. Wow. Now, I won’t make you listen to this video.
Don’t worry. But if you do want to watch it, you can go and you can look it up for yourself. It is here on YouTube. And if you do that, you will quickly see and you will quickly hear that this video is entirely AI generated. Yep, it’s clearly an AI voiceover reading out an AI written script talking on top of AI generated images. And check this out. If we come to SocialBlade and do a search for this channel, you’ll see that as of me filming this video, it’s just 3 months old. And look, they went from zero views to over 3.8 million views in less than 30 days. And it’s not like this was just a one-off spike either. In the past 30 days, you can see that they’ve gained over 3.6 million views.
And here’s the thing, right? This many views can make a lot of money with YouTube’s monetization program since YouTube pays us creators by splitting ad revenue with us. And on average, most creators earn an RPM rate of $3 to $8, which means revenue per 1,000 views. So if we do the math, then that means on average, a channel getting this many views usually earns anywhere from $11,000 to over $29,000 per month. That is over $900 per day. But here’s where things start to get super crazy. Because you see, that’s just an average RPM rate, right? And some creators like me earn an even higher RPM than this because of the types of videos we make.
And usually the longer your videos, the more money it makes because, well, longer videos mean that YouTube can show more ads per video. And so, check this out. I found an adult bedtime story creator who shared how much his 2hour videos made him. And he revealed that YouTube has paid him over $10,000 for $472,000 views. Which means if you do the math, for every 1,000 views he’s getting, YouTube is paying him about $21. So then if they were to have a similar RPM with 3.6 6 million monthly views. At a $21 RPM, we can estimate that this would earn $77,000 per month. Wow. And it gets even crazier because you can make videos like this 100% for free using this AI tool workflow here. So, first up, you will need a script. And for that, we’ll be using this free AI tool here, Claude.
Claude is a free AI chatbot similar to Chat GPT, but the difference is that it has been trained in a unique way. CH GBT and most other chat bots are trained to prioritize keeping the user happy, whereas Claude has instead been trained to prioritize being helpful, honest, and harmless. This means it’s much better at creating natural sounding writing that a viewer will enjoy, which is why most AI YouTubers use it to generate scripts instead of chat GPT. And the process is simple. While you can’t generate a 2-hour long script at once, you can split it into segments. So, I got it to generate the first 10 minutes of the script for me. Then I copied the script and I pasted it into a Google Docs document. Then I came back to Claude and I asked it to carry on with the next 10 minutes of video script and it did just that. It carried on from where it left off and generated some new facts for me.
And so I just went and did this multiple times. And in less than 20 minutes, Claudia drafted a 2-hour video script for me for free that I could now go through and customize. So after this, you will need video pictures. And one of my favorite free AI tools to create stunning pictures is Leonardo. This is a free AI image generator that gives you daily credits that you can use to generate images. And the free account even lets you use your images for commercial purposes. So sign up for a free account. Next, once logged in, click to generate an image. Then select to generate a widescreen 16×9 image.
Then type in whatever type of image you want it to generate. By default, as part of the free version of Leonardo, it will generate multiple images for you and you can use all of them if you like in your video to vary up the visuals. Then once you have your images, we will just need AI to create a voice over for us. And to do that, we’re actually going to do it for free using Microsoft’s video editor, Clipch Champ. Yep, just sign in and then select to create a new video. Then click the record button and select text to speech. Then just come and paste in some of your script that you created with Claude. and then come and select which AI voice to use. Clip Champ has a lot of different voices you can pick from. For this video though, Tony was a good choice. Then click advanced settings.
And now you can customize the voice. So I changed Tony’s voice to have a hopeful tone. And I selected it to have a low pitch to be better for listening for sleeping. And I lowered the speed of it to be more meditative. Then I just clicked save. And that was it. Here is a quick preview of the voice. Close your eyes and let your mind wander back through the centuries to a time when the world was vast and mysterious when journeys took months instead of hours.
So yes, there you go. And you know, very few people are actually aware that you can create AI voiceovers for free with Clip Jamp. So it almost feels like I’m sharing some kind of secret. All right, let’s now move on to the next free AI business idea. start a GEO agency. And to explain what this is, let’s do a quick experiment. If I come to Chat GPT and I ask it to find me a cleaning company to help me clean a house each week in Newcastle, Australia, you will see that Chat GPT searches the web and it comes back with a specific choice.
And it also explains why it chose this company for me based on my prompt. So then the question is this, what made it take notice of this cleaning company and choose it for me? And well, the short answer is that the company website and the company’s socials were better optimized for AI compared to its competitors. This is called generative engine optimization. When you optimize a website for AI chatbots by making tweaks to it to make it more AI optimized and most of these tweaks are completely free, they largely revolve around making changes to your website copy or to the metadata in the website code. And you can learn to do GEO for free here on YouTube by just watching tutorial videos. And it’s a valuable skill to know because increasingly more and more people are using AI to search for things instead of using Google. So a lot of businesses both big and small are going to need to hire GEO professionals to help them optimize their websites for AI traffic. And so that is where you come in. You can watch these YouTube videos and you can learn how to do GEO. Then you can pitch your services of optimizing website copy and metadata to local businesses in your area and you can start your own agency selling GEO services for free. All right then. So let’s now move on to the next business idea. Free AI print on demand stores.
Yes. So here’s the thing, right? As I’ve discussed in my video case studies here on this channel, I actually have my own oneperson AI business. First, I use AI tools to help me brainstorm and create funny or clever clothing designs. Then I sell my designs onto products like shirts using automated print on demand apps like Printify. And if you’re new around here and have never heard about Printify before, it’s basically an app that lets you customize and sell products. So for me, I just upload my AI designs onto a blank product, then I list it for sale in an online store for a markup price. And each time that a customer saves buys a shirt from me, the app will automatically send the order to the print shop, which prints my design onto it. Then they ship it out to the customer, while I get to keep the difference as profit. Now, this is a super cool business and I love having it. There is just one problem. This video here is all about starting a business for free with zero dollars. And I sell my AI products on Etsy and Shopify, which while low cost are not 100% free. But there is actually a way to start a print on demand store 100% for free if you have the right workflow.
Yep. So, for example, check this out. On Instagram and Tik Tok, people are going viral by posting mock-ups of sharable print on demand products as content. So, you take this video here. It’s just a basic video that features a mockup picture of a funny shirt with trending music in the background. And yet, despite its simplicity, it’s been super popular, getting over 3.8 million views.
And check out this simple video here that was posted 3 days ago. It’s a short clip of someone filming themselves designing a Christmas sweater in the dark human niche using Canva. And look, it’s already had over 1 million views.
Wow. And as you can see from the store’s bio, they have had over 27,000 customers, which is pretty amazing. And they also include a link to their store where you can go and buy print on demand versions of their funny product designs.
So yes, you can see what this business idea basically is, right? Step one, use AI to come up with funny or clever product designs which when posted just as content online will go viral because of the fact that it’s so sharable and people will share it with their friends and their family. And then step two, create a print on demand store so that you can actually sell the designs that you create onto products and people can go and buy them and you can earn money.
And we can do both of these things for free with this workflow here. And so the first tool we will be using is Chat GPT.
Because for me when I design my products, I use Chat GPT to help me come up with funny slogans. And basically how I do this is I’ll find another print on demand product online that’s already got a lot of engagement, such as this funny t-shirt here that’s had over 600 sales in the past month. And then I’ll put it into Chat GPT to use as inspiration to create new slogans, but in an entirely different niche with an entirely different customer base. Chat GPT is absolutely amazing at coming up with slogans for me when I prompt it in this way. Then next, if you need to create any pictures for your product, you can use the free AI image generator that I used earlier, Leonardo. Once you’ve created a free account and logged in, just click to create an image and then type in an image prompt explaining what you want. Remember, Leonardo currently gives you free credits each day and you get a commercial license for your images, which is perfect for us. So yes, once you’ve generated an image that you like, you can just download it. Then next, we’ll come on over to a tool that my longtime subscribers know that I’m a huge fan of, Canva. Canva is a drag and drop design app with a bunch of great AI tools included in it. Although to access these, you will need a Canva Pro account. Luckily though, they are still giving out a huge free 30-day trial account for new pro members, which is frankly an insane deal. So, if you want to get Canva Pro for free for 30 days, I’ll include my affiliate link to it in the video description below. But yes, once you’re signed in, you can create a new project and use Canvas drag and drop text tools to create the slogan part of your funny design. And then after that, you can upload any AI images that you made with Leonardo. And then you can use Canvas AI tools to enhance them. First, select to use the Canva AI upscaler tool. This will upscale the image into high resolution so that it will print in high quality onto products. Then use the Canva AI background remover tool to get rid of the white box around the image to make it transparent. And then, well, that’s pretty much it. Once you’re finished creating your design and layout, you can click share and click download and then increase the resolution size and set the background to be transparent. And then just save your design as a PNG. Then next up, we just need to create our store and our products to sell. And we can actually do this for free because Printify, the most popular print on demand website, has a free online store builder called Printify Pop-Up Store. And it’s simple.
Just sign up for a free Printify account. Then once logged in, click to add a new store and choose to add a new pop-up store. Then give your store a name and select your country and then click next. And on this page, choose a store design that you like. Then, well, that’s pretty much it. Printify will create your store for free. And so now you can click to add new products into it. Printify has hundreds of different types of blank products that you can customize and sell. So choose a product that you like, such as a sweatshirt, and upload your image onto it. And then list it in your store for sale for a market price. And that’s it. You can now customize your store settings if you like, including adding in a store logo.
Plus, you’ll be given a free URL to your store, which you can share and put in your social media bio. And each time someone comes into your store after seeing your pictures or videos that you post and buys a product that you’ve added into it, you don’t even have to do anything because Printify will take care of all of it for you. Yep. They will collect the money that the customer paid you and deduct the product and shipping costs. And then they’ll have their print shop print the design onto the product, package it up, and ship it out to the customer, and they’ll pay you the difference as profit. This is a big reason why I love print on demand. I personally find it very passive and hands off as a way to make money. It genuinely is one of the most passive ways that I’m making money online. And so, if you are interested in learning how I do it, you can watch my case study videos on this channel. Plus, you can also check out my free ebook, The Six Steps That SixFigure Online Stores Follow to Make Over $10,000 a Month Online with Print on Demand. You can find a link to download my free ebook in the video description below. And if you want even more info, I also have a video course called The Ecom Clubhouse, which includes in-depth video tutorials on my tricks I use to get free traffic. So, I will also include a link to this in the description. But anyway, back to the video and onto the next free business idea. AI Pinterest affiliate marketing.
Yes, a lot of people are using AI to make money on Pinterest right now. And again, I find it super fascinating to see how they do it. Yep. So, for example, check this out. If we come to Pinterest and do a search for fairy gardens, you will see that this pin is ranked very highly in the search results. And if we click on the website that this pen is linking out to, you’ll see that it takes us to a blog post with images and text that is obviously AI generated. These posts also contain recommendations for different products that you can buy. And it links to these products using affiliate links. And that phrase affiliate links, if you’ve never heard that before, are basically referral links that track each time someone clicks them and buys something after doing so. And if they do, you get a commission as a thank you for the referral. Now, I also do affiliate marketing except I do it here on YouTube. So, I know through personal experience here that it is an effective strategy for monetizing content. But anyway, I digress. So, if we come back to the pin itself and open up the account that posted it, you’ll see that each month they are getting over 4 million views to their pins that link to their blog posts. And if we scroll down, you’ll see that they have lots of different pins that they’ve uploaded into different niches, all driving traffic to their blog. So you can see how this business idea works, right?
Step one, create a niche blog and use AI tools to generate blog posts and images and then have these blog posts link to affiliate products. And then step two, use AI tools to create clickable Pinterest pins which then drive traffic to your blog posts. And as I said, all of this can be done for free. So here is the AI tool workflow that we’re going to use to create this. So first up, you will need to create your blog posts. And again, as I’ve already mentioned earlier in this video, Claude is exceptionally good right now at writing natural sounding writing. So, you can see here that I asked Claude to write me an article about 15 different accessories that could be included in a British cottage garden. And I set some limitations on the accessories, mainly they should be accessories that could be bought from Amazon and that they could also be available to an American audience, too. And not only did Claude write for me the article, you can see that I did research to ensure that the article it gave me met my criteria too, which was very cool. Then next up, you’ll need to make your images to go along with your articles. And to do that, you can use this free AI image generator that I talked about already in this video, Leonardo AI. Each day, you get free credits, so you can use these to make your blog post pictures. But of course, you will need to create a blog so that people can actually read your posts. And so probably my favorite way to do this for free right now is to sign up for this website here, Medium. Medium is a blogging platform that lets you start a blog for free. And they allow affiliate links in your blog post, too.
Plus, you also need to add in affiliate links to products to promote them. And probably the most popular affiliate program I see right now on Pinterest is Amazon’s, which is called Amazon Associates. And if you want some tips, by the way, on picking good products on Amazon to promote, I actually recommend checking out Tik Tok because a lot of Pinterest affiliate marketers make videos on here sharing their tips for how they choose products. It’s quite interesting to watch. But yes, either way, next up in our workflow is, of course, Canva. Canva is another tool that I’ve talked about already in this video. It is an AI powered drag and drop graphics editor. And something that is very cool is that inside of it, there are lots of pre-made templates for Pinterest that you can use to quickly and easily create high converting Pinterest pins. And again, you can get a free 30-day trial for Canva Pro by clicking on the link in the video description below. But yes, once you’ve selected a pre-installed template for Pinterest pins that you like, you can then just customize it. So, for example, this pin here that I created, I customized this template by dragging and dropping into Canva different images that I generated for free with Leonardo and I swapped out the images in the template with these images instead. And then I came in and I modified the text and then I saved it. And that was pretty much it. In less than a minute, I’d created a pin that I could now upload to Pinterest. But we’re not quite yet done.
Nope. Because remember how that original pin we looked at was sitting at the top of the search results within Pinterest when I searched for fairy garden ideas?
Well, that’s because of something called SEO, search engine optimization.
Basically, all search engines, including Pinterest, have algorithms that they use when choosing which content they want to rank first. And so, the Pinterest SEO algorithm looks for lots of different elements such as what title you used, what keywords you used in your tags, that sort of thing. And so that is where chat GPT comes in as part of our workflow. We can now upload our pin image we created to chat GPT and tell it who our target audience is. As I said earlier, while I find Claude is often better at writing natural sounding content for humans, honestly, I find that Chat GPT is usually better at generating content like titles that is instead optimized for algorithms or AI.
And look, it was able to analyze our pin and our audience and create an SEO optimized listing for us super quickly.
Very cool. So then, if you’d like to learn more about my own one person AI business, be sure to watch my next video here on screen. and I will see you in the next
