00:00:00.000 These are five genius ways to make money with AI.
00:00:03.280 I'm Dan Martell, founder of Martell Ventures,
00:00:05.360 a portfolio of AI companies on track to be worth a billion dollars
00:00:09.000 in less than three years,
00:00:10.420 where we launch and scale a new AI company every single month.
00:00:14.200 And in this video, I'm going to break down
00:00:15.880 how you can start using these five methods to make money with AI today.
00:00:19.820 Because with how far AI has come,
00:00:21.800 you don't need to be an expert to make thousands,
00:00:24.080 if not millions with AI.
00:00:25.680 Number five, personalized GPT ecosystem.
00:00:28.840 them. For the nerds out there, this is how you make a lot of money selling to rich people. Every
00:00:34.240 business owner I know is trying to figure out this AI stuff and they're confused. They hear about
00:00:39.100 projects, they hear about custom GPTs, they hear about system prompts, master prompts, custom
00:00:43.860 instructions, all this stuff that you might know that they have no clue about and they would pay
00:00:48.300 somebody to come in and set it up. Last month, I hosted this AI Accelerator Summit and I had some
00:00:53.600 of the top CEOs from around the world fly in. These are guys doing like seven, eight, nine,
00:00:57.800 and 10 million a year in revenue.
00:00:59.160 And when I showed them how I use AI, blew their minds.
00:01:03.200 Everyone asked me the same question.
00:01:04.900 Who can I pay to set this up for me?
00:01:07.220 So how does a busy exec
00:01:08.620 actually get this set up for them?
00:01:10.040 That's where you come in.
00:01:11.140 So how do we put this into action?
00:01:13.000 It's pretty simple, there's only four parts.
00:01:14.800 First, we need to have an intake form.
00:01:16.760 That essentially collects all the information you need
00:01:19.460 about your customer.
00:01:20.460 I'm talking preferences, workflows, the tone, their goals.
00:01:23.700 Gather as much context as possible
00:01:25.440 because that becomes the input to set everything up.
00:01:27.860 The second step is you use that specific information
00:01:30.940 to build some key pieces,
00:01:32.540 a master prompt for the different contexts in their life,
00:01:35.060 system prompts for the specific outputs
00:01:37.200 they're trying to generate,
00:01:38.240 custom GPTs from the system prompts,
00:01:40.920 organize their world into project folders,
00:01:43.300 teach them how to update the context
00:01:45.120 in those projects, et cetera.
00:01:46.620 Now, if what I just shared with you sounds foreign,
00:01:49.080 don't worry about it
00:01:50.000 because I'm gonna link up in the description,
00:01:52.340 a video where I teach how to set this up for yourself
00:01:56.060 and for your clients.
00:01:57.080 I'll also make sure that it's a video
00:01:58.400 that's recommended at the end of this one.
00:01:59.820 So you watch this whole thing
00:02:01.180 and then you get into setting this up.
00:02:02.640 So once you do that,
00:02:03.680 I want you to load all those documents
00:02:05.520 that you've created into ChatGPT
00:02:07.220 and ask it to write an SOP,
00:02:09.500 Standard Operating Procedure or Playbook
00:02:11.500 for how it can use all that AI you've created
00:02:14.860 inside of ChatGPT.
00:02:16.040 So I'm talking like how the client should use projects,
00:02:18.840 custom GPTs, custom instructions,
00:02:21.000 master prompt system prompts step number four is you getting access to their chat gpt and setting
00:02:26.580 this all up so that it is easy it is clear it is labeled and they don't need to wonder where do
00:02:32.360 they find the projects and what custom gpt is this and how would i use this for my work it's already
00:02:37.060 analyzed all that created it you've installed it and now they can use it now the pro tip is to
00:02:42.980 charge them a monthly subscription-based maintenance fee so that if they need updates especially in
00:02:48.000 today's world. I don't know if you've seen like literally every two months, there's a big update
00:02:51.600 from Chad GPT. You can come in and tweak and fix things as they have questions. And this works for
00:02:56.600 any platform, Gemini, Claude, et cetera. Here's the truth. Intellectual property of the future
00:03:02.620 is your system prompts. A business is going to pay you top dollar because they want to increase
00:03:07.760 the value of their business, which means the quality of their system prompts. They don't
00:03:11.860 know how to do that. You do, and they'll pay you for that. And by the way, if you're one of those
00:03:16.160 busy CEOs who wants to implement all of this, but doesn't have the time to figure it out from
00:03:20.540 scratch, I've got you. I've spent months building an internal AI company operating system. The same
00:03:26.100 frameworks I use to integrate AI across every department and all my companies. It walks you
00:03:30.860 through everything step by step. Click the link below to get the full detailed document for free.
00:03:36.340 Now this next way to make money with AI is blowing up and you can take advantage of it.
00:03:41.440 Number four, content multiplying.
00:03:43.960 So this is an opportunity for you to reach out
00:03:46.020 to all these businesses, create long form content
00:03:48.560 and repurpose the exact stuff that they've already put out
00:03:51.500 and publish it on other platforms
00:03:53.680 so that they can generate leads on TikTok, Snapchat,
00:03:56.600 they're probably not using that,
00:03:57.660 and Instagram and all these other platforms.
00:03:59.340 See, they already have it in their long form
00:04:01.400 and with generative words and video and creative strategies,
00:04:04.920 you can get paid top dollar
00:04:06.680 to repurpose that content for those businesses.
00:04:09.040 So if this sounds like something you wanna try,
00:04:10.740 here's what you need to do.
00:04:11.780 First, reach out to the companies
00:04:13.580 that have a portfolio of existing content.
00:04:15.680 That's the pre-qualifier.
00:04:17.040 If you find a business
00:04:18.160 that has no existing long form content,
00:04:20.320 this strategy doesn't work.
00:04:21.520 You can actually ask AI to do a deep research project
00:04:25.620 to find companies that have a lot of long form content
00:04:28.740 and no short form posting, no deep LinkedIn profile.
00:04:32.860 Now that you've got one of those clients as a customer,
00:04:34.960 I want you to take their top performing content,
00:04:37.500 the most views, the most engagement, then transcribe it.
00:04:40.140 Once you have the transcription,
00:04:41.900 you can then ask ChatGPT or any AI
00:04:44.200 to pull out the most impactful sections out of the long form
00:04:48.280 and then format it differently for different platforms.
00:04:51.000 I'm talking like clips, carousels, memorable tweets.
00:04:54.760 That long form content becomes the foundation
00:04:57.340 for you to generate all the short form content
00:04:59.460 that those companies are gonna pay you top dollar for.
00:05:01.980 And here's one of my favorite tips.
00:05:04.080 If you have a long piece of content,
00:05:05.560 just ask ChatGPT to package it into a PSL framework,
00:05:09.320 which stands for point, story, lesson.
00:05:11.160 This is how I create all my content.
00:05:12.560 Make a point, tell a story, and then pull out the lessons.
00:05:15.960 And you can make it do that
00:05:17.220 from a long form piece of content.
00:05:18.880 You might pull out five or six PSLs.
00:05:21.320 That PSL is gonna perform incredibly well on social,
00:05:24.460 making you look like a king.
00:05:25.800 So here's the key, is we wanna repurpose
00:05:28.220 stuff that's performed really well
00:05:29.860 so that you don't have to reinvent the wheel
00:05:31.640 every time you start.
00:05:32.780 Number three is AI Website Studio.
00:05:35.300 The whole point is to build beautiful websites
00:05:38.360 without needing to know how to code.
00:05:40.120 Back in the day, I actually taught myself HTML.
00:05:42.560 That was like the first programming language,
00:05:44.380 that and JavaScript.
00:05:45.560 And it was fun because I was building these websites
00:05:47.800 and everybody thought I had like magic skills.
00:05:49.900 Now you can create literally designed perfect,
00:05:54.160 pixel perfect, responsive perfect,
00:05:56.800 everything perfect websites automagically using AI.
00:06:00.360 So if you have a keen eye for design,
00:06:02.360 and honestly, even if you don't,
00:06:03.640 this might be perfect for you.
00:06:05.260 Tools like Lovable or Framer.com
00:06:07.920 makes it possible to spin up sites in literally seconds
00:06:12.040 with no coding experience.
00:06:14.380 I have 18 year old interns on my team,
00:06:17.620 building, launching, landing pages, websites, apps,
00:06:22.320 taking information, visualizing it, using lovable.
00:06:25.680 They don't even understand like golden ratio,
00:06:28.040 the rule of thirds or visual hierarchies,
00:06:29.960 but it looks awesome every time they do it.
00:06:31.980 For example, one of my companies at Martell Ventures,
00:06:34.400 it's called Hero Hire that lets you hire people using AI.
00:06:37.840 literally finds people interviews them and just schedules final interviews with you we built our
00:06:42.720 whole website using lovable with an intern it took less than four hours needed no coding at all
00:06:48.800 and looks beautiful so if you want to implement this and get paid for it just follow these steps
00:06:53.520 first we have to use chat gpt to create an intake form that collects everything you're going to need
00:06:58.320 from the client i'm talking brand details goals copy tonality second we use that information and
00:07:04.800 plug it into ChatGPT to write the prompts
00:07:07.560 to generate the website in Lovable or Framer,
00:07:11.220 and then let AI create the rest of it.
00:07:13.840 Then I need you to just tinker a bit with it
00:07:16.040 to get the details and the polish then.
00:07:17.880 And finally, send it back to the client for feedback.
00:07:20.780 But the key is, is have them fill out the feedback
00:07:23.100 in a form, and then that information
00:07:25.500 sent back to Lovable updates the website
00:07:28.060 and then sends them back the link.
00:07:29.500 I know people making $10 million a year
00:07:32.100 building websites for businesses, for anybody,
00:07:34.440 landing pages and it's all automated the person pays they fill out the form it goes over to
00:07:40.200 lovable using an api it runs it it comes back it sends a link to the client they provide feedback
00:07:46.040 it goes back three iterations and then the client gets a final website nobody involved that's the
00:07:51.560 future of what i'm talking about for this opportunity and you don't need any kind of
00:07:55.400 experience or know how the ai can take care of it for you and the same pro tip is last time you can
00:08:01.320 charge them a monthly fee for website maintenance upkeep tweaks creating landing pages helping them
00:08:07.160 with their email automation again those emails can be written by ai i'm telling you right now
00:08:11.960 this opportunity is massive so getting paid to build websites that one's super simple but there's
00:08:17.960 another level for people that know things expertise insights they actually can get a result and those
00:08:23.240 people always ask me if i know how to get a result for somebody how do i actually make money this
00:08:27.720 next thing if you do it right will make you you money number two is an ai workshop builder see
00:08:33.360 this is where you can get paid for what you know how to do but the way to do that is you have to
00:08:37.300 package your knowledge into a workshop see people don't just want to listen to you ramble they want
00:08:42.220 you to actually deliver training that gets them results the cool part is that even if you've never
00:08:47.680 created curriculum or a training or workshop ai can build the whole thing it can write the scripts
00:08:53.140 it can do the outlines it can break up things into multiple days it can even produce the
00:08:57.520 content. What stops most people is their fear of not being an expert. I remember the other day I
00:09:02.500 was hiking on my founder's hike. This woman was sharing with me that she had quit her job a year 0.99
00:09:06.840 ago. She had started her business and she has a lot of people that want to ask her how she did
00:09:11.220 it, but she doesn't feel qualified. And I said, here's the deal. You quit your job, started your
00:09:16.380 business. So that means you're a few steps ahead of other people. You don't have to be an expert
00:09:20.720 in starting a business. You need to be an expert in quitting their job, which you've done and
00:09:25.500 you've already shown success. That's why people want to learn from you. So don't worry about not
00:09:29.460 being a certified expert. Just know that if you've gotten a result in your life and you just teach
00:09:34.020 people, here's a result I got in my life. I'll teach you how I did it. It's worked for these
00:09:37.440 people I've helped. Then you are an expert to help people get that result. And doing this and setting
00:09:42.560 it up is way easier than you think. It really comes down to three steps. The first step is you
00:09:47.280 want to ask ChadGBT to interview you like it was a beginner in your area. So for example, when I
00:09:53.420 started my King's Club program and I wanted to create a curriculum for these young men that I
00:09:57.220 mentor, I just had it interview me to try to ask me the questions that it would have if it was a
00:10:02.680 young man wanting to get advice from me. The second step is you use those questions and answers to ask
00:10:08.120 it to build a step-by-step workshop. After that, I then had the AI write every lesson, every outline,
00:10:14.680 every model so that I didn't have to think. And when the King's Club event came up, I just went
00:10:20.240 back to what i'd already outlined because it created all the material for me my favorite thing
00:10:24.400 is to ask it to come up with like exercises that are relevant to a teenager because i'm teaching
00:10:30.000 these kids that are 13 to 18 and i don't know what's relevant to them so it comes up with like
00:10:34.080 all these examples of youtubers and streamers i've never heard of but the stories reinforce the point
00:10:38.800 that i'm teaching about being successful and finally number four is you just have to record
00:10:42.960 yourself you just follow the slides they created for you that's all i do i go on teach for 20 30
00:10:48.560 minutes record it that becomes saved that's my king's club content now i don't charge for that
00:10:53.520 program but you can charge top dollar especially if you're selling to other business owners
00:10:57.600 they want to get a result that you're world class at now my favorite pro tip though is asking it to
00:11:03.280 use the format mat structure that's based on adult learning theory to break up your information in a
00:11:10.480 way that is so easy to learn from see most people just try to overwhelm people with knowledge and
00:11:16.560 information but the format structure really keeps it simple and easy for anybody to learn from
00:11:20.960 the truth is is you don't have to be the expert but you do need to be the guide ai makes you the
00:11:26.640 best guide and gets you paid the most money okay those workshops they're freaking amazing and you
00:11:31.520 can make a ton of money but if you already have a business and you want to make more money with ai
00:11:36.240 this last one is going to blow your mind number one hidden network finder your net worth is your
00:11:43.280 network you already know the people that you need to know to make more money but unfortunately for
00:11:49.200 most people it's hidden it's like standing on top of a gold mine and not realizing there's gold
00:11:55.680 under the ground because you don't have the tool to go mine for it see within your follower base
00:12:00.720 people that follow you on linkedin that you don't even know or tick tock or instagram or twitter
00:12:05.440 there might be billionaires there might be media opportunities there might be customers just
00:12:10.880 sitting there, but you don't even know they're watching. The cool part is AI can scan your
00:12:16.280 followers, augment that information, analyze and do research on all those contexts for you
00:12:21.160 to figure out where the biggest opportunities are for you to connect the dots. Think about your
00:12:25.980 email. If you go back over 10 years, how many emails have you had with people? Over 1,000,
00:12:31.340 over 2,000, maybe 10,000, maybe 20,000 conversations. What if you knew everything
00:12:35.980 about those people, those emails, their current job positions, what they're doing,
00:12:39.420 and it could find opportunities as you travel
00:12:41.720 to meet up with them,
00:12:42.720 find opportunities to do partnerships with,
00:12:44.520 find potential customers, it's all there.
00:12:47.320 That's why I built this tool called SocialSweep.
00:12:49.300 I've personally used it to analyze my network
00:12:52.260 to find opportunities to do media interviews,
00:12:55.180 podcast tours, partnerships, founder dinners,
00:12:59.160 literally augment my life through relationships
00:13:01.760 in a way that was never possible before.
00:13:04.600 So how does this work?
00:13:05.780 First, you create a SocialSweep AI account
00:13:07.620 and you connect your social account.
00:13:09.060 So I connected my Instagram, my X account,
00:13:11.980 my emails, my LinkedIn, all of it.
00:13:13.860 So now what it does is it enriches your contacts
00:13:16.340 using public data and appends to it,
00:13:19.080 and then also does an AI analysis
00:13:20.960 to figure out who they are, where they live.
00:13:23.480 I mean, it'll even look at photos on Instagram
00:13:25.540 and update their location
00:13:26.680 if it can't find that publicly.
00:13:28.120 It's wild.
00:13:29.200 So then you wanna ask it questions.
00:13:30.720 So for example, one of them is,
00:13:32.320 who do I know that has a podcast
00:13:33.520 that shoots in Austin in person?
00:13:35.920 So then it creates a list of contacts.
00:13:37.300 the cool part is that once you've got that list you can ask it to write the snippet dynamically
00:13:42.260 based on who you are who that person is and what you should say when you reach out to them over
00:13:47.460 instagram or email depending on which platform it tells you is the best for that person this is how
00:13:52.580 you find new clients strategic partnerships suppliers or just even find somebody at a
00:13:57.860 company could solve a problem for you have you ever had your like facebook account locked down
00:14:01.380 and you're like does anybody know anybody that works at facebook i guarantee you already know
