0:00Can I show you three simple AI side hustles that people are doing right now to replace their 9 toive jobs, some of them being completely free to set up? And can I also show you how to set them up in less than an hour using AI? Well, that's exactly the challenge for this video. And I promise there's something in this list for everyone, whether you're brand new to using AI or a complete introvert and never want to show your face online. And none of the ideas on this list require any coding or anything like that. You just need a laptop, a few simple AI tools, and the

0:31ability to type. And a little spoiler, the last one on the list is the one that's made me the most. So, make sure you don't skip out early. But before I show you that one, I want to start with the easiest AI side hustle, which is to create faceless language practice channels on YouTube. And these are honestly kind of genius once you see how simple they are to set up. Now, real quick before I move on to the first AI side hustle, I want to tell you about the AI tool that's actually powering today's video, which is Vit. Vit is an all-in-one AI video creation platform

1:01built for social media. With Vit, you can now create a month's worth of social media content in AI ads without sitting there manually editing it for hours. You can literally just type a prompt with a basic idea you have for your next post and it'll generate a full reel, Tik Tok or YouTube shorts in minutes, including the UGC style avatar, the script, subtitles, all done for you. Or use V's fabric 1.0 where you can upload an image of yourself. Add your script, your voice, and V creates a video of your AI twin with perfect lips sync. You can also add in AI powered edits like dynamic subtitles, AI transitions, and

1:40sound effects. And the part I can't stop thinking about is how many separate subscriptions I don't have to pay for anymore now that V has everything I need all in one place. And more importantly, all the hours I'm not wasting trying to edit everything myself. So, I'm paying less and getting a ton of my time back. So, if you want to go from idea to viral ready content faster and stop paying for a dozen different subscriptions, I'll put the link to V down in the description so you can try it out. Now, let's get back to the first AI side hustle on my list. The whole idea is

2:09that you post short videos of two AI characters having a basic conversation in whichever language you want to teach with the spoken words appearing on screen as they're said. So, people learning that language can follow along and practice while they watch. And this whole thing can be created with AI, which I'll show you in just a second. But first, I want to show you a real life example of what I'm talking about to show you proof of how popular and in demand this type of content is. And I'm also going to show you how much channels

2:37like this could potentially be making. Here's a channel I came across doing this exact side hustle that already has millions of views, which you can see right here. And the crazy part is when you look at this channel's details, you can see it was launched only a few months ago. And all of their videos get tens of thousands of views, some over a

2:56million, every single time they post. Look how simple these videos are. I'm David. And I'm Alice. Hello everyone. So Alice, can I ask you something? Of course. What is it? How long do you It's just AI generated images of characters having a conversation in the channel's chosen language using a voice over. And they're just discussing common topics that happen in real life. And the video also shows subtitles in bold right here on the screen as the characters are talking. And like I just said, you can create all of this using AI. And when I tested it out, it was a lot simpler than I thought. But before I show you how, I

3:29know you're thinking, Stacy, views are great, but how do channels like this actually make money? Well, they can actually get paid two ways. First is through the YouTube partner program, where YouTube pays channels a portion of the ad revenue they make when people watch ads on their videos. And here you can see based on this channel's YouTube data how much they could potentially be making. And the second way channels like this make money is by selling their own digital products linked in the description of every video. Things like digital language guides, online courses, digital flashcards or apps to help their viewers learn the language faster. But

4:04unlike getting paid through the YouTube partner program where you just get a percentage of the profit and you also have to wait to qualify, with digital products, you keep 100% of the profits and can monetize your channel from day one. And when you combine these two income streams together on one channel, that's how you create something long-term and sustainable. And like I said earlier, you can use AI to create everything. The video script, the images, the voices, even the digital products. You can get Claude or Chatyppt to write the scripts for you in about 60 seconds with a prompt like the one you see on my screen right here. And when

4:37you submit it, the AI will write the entire script with the translations for you as well. Then for the images in the video, you can use Clott Chat GBT again to create image generation prompts. Then take those prompts and paste them into your favorite AI image or video generator, which will create them and bring your entire script to life. Last, you can put it all together, including the images, the captions, and most importantly, generate the spoken script voice over in platforms like Microsoft Clip Champ, which is free, or 11 Labs to

5:05create your full video. Hi everyone, and welcome back to the show. I'm Abby. And I'm Tyler. Today, we're talking about something a lot of English learners feel. It's the fear of speaking English. And real quick, if you want to learn more about any of the side hustles in this video, I created a free checklist that includes more detailed steps, plus all of the AI prompts you can use to help you build these side hustles yourself. I'll explain how to get your copy of the free checklist at the end of the video. But once you're done putting the video together, all you have to do is create your YouTube

5:32channel and upload the video. Now, in full transparency, I want to be clear that I'm not in any way saying that this or any of the AI side hustles in this video are a quick or guaranteed way to make money. They all work, and I'll be sharing more proof as we go, but there's no way for me to guarantee what will happen for you. It could take some time, but what I showed you here can be done for free, which is pretty amazing. But to keep to this working longterm and you getting the channel monetized as quickly as possible is to consistently create

6:02and post new videos on a regular basis. And this might require you to upgrade to paid accounts in the future, but in the beginning you can absolutely start for free to get things going. Now, the next AI side hustle is one you might not have heard of, and it's building AI phone agents for local service-based

6:18businesses. Hi, thanks for calling Plumbing NYC. I'm their AI plumbing assistant. How can I help you today? Hi, I need help with a leaking pipe under my sink. Can you help with that? Yes, we can definitely help you with that leaking pipe. Our plumbers are available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. And we also handle emergencies on weekends, like plumbers, electricians, real estate agents, lawyers, the list is pretty much endless. And if you're thinking, Stacy,

6:39what the heck is an AI phone agent? Well, it's basically an AI chatbot, but instead of chatting in text, it answers the phone and actually talks to customers for the business, just like a real receptionist would, except it's not a real person. It's AI. And if you come over to Fiverr and search for AI phone agents or AI voice agents, you'll see a list of real freelancers offering this exact service. Here's a good example of one I found right here. Here you can see how much this freelancer charges to set up one of these. And when you look here, you can see how many reviews this

7:10freelancer has received so far. Every one of those reviews is a completed paid order. So, if you do the quick math in your head, you can get a rough idea of how much just this one freelancer has potentially brought in from this one single gig. But how do you actually build one of these if you have zero tech experience? It's honestly easier than you think. Watch. I'll show you just the basic steps now to save time and show you how it works, but I'll give you more

7:34detailed steps in the free checklist. So, all you have to do is come over to an AI voice agent tool like 11 Labs, which actually has a built-in tool specifically for building these types of super realistic sounding AI phone agents, which you can see here. From this screen, you just have to select what you want the AI phone agents voice

7:50to sound like from the list of voices. There's so many to pick from. Then paste in a prompt here that includes the specific business's information like their hours, their prices, their services, how to book an appointment, all the stuff a real human receptionist would need to know, plus how you want them to respond to people. Then 11 Labs AI takes all of that information and programs it into the talking AI agent for you. That's linked to the business's phone number. You don't have to code anything yourself. It's all done for you. And once you publish or launch the agent, it can then answer calls and respond to customers accurately in real

8:25time. It sounds just like a real conversation. But to prove this actually works and I'm not making this up, here's an AI phone agent I created for a local plumber. I'll show you how it works by calling it in real time. Watch. Hi, thanks for calling Plumbing NYC. I'm their AI plumbing assistant. How can I

8:41help you today? Hi, I need help with a leaking pipe under my sink. Can you help with that? Yes, we can definitely help you with that leaking pipe. To get a plumber out to your location, I will need your full name, your specific address in Manhattan, and a brief description of the issue. Once I have those details, we

8:57can look at scheduling a visit for you. Does that make sense? Okay. What hours do you work? Our [clears throat] plumbers are available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. And we also handle emergencies on weekends. Does that work for your schedule or do you have a preferred day and time in mind? I'm located in Manhattan. Do you service

9:15this area? Yes, we service the entire Manhattan area. So, you are all set. Since you are within our service zone, we can go ahead and book that appointment for your leaking pipe. Could you please provide your full name and specific address so I can get that started for you? Isn't that crazy? This AI phone agent can literally answer customer calls while the plumber is working away. They never have to worry about losing a new customer again because they couldn't answer the phone. And here's three ways you can get paying clients for this side hustle. First, you can create gigs on Fiverr, like I showed you earlier,

9:46promoting your AI phone agent service. Second, you can do cold outreach to businesses by phone or email, showing them an example of the agent you've already built. Or third, you can post about your business on social media, showing in real time what they can do to attract clients to you. All of these work and can lead to your first paying

10:03client if you're consistent with them. And again, this is a really highle explanation of how to set up phone agents with AI. There's obviously a few more details involved in setting this up, but the point of this video is to inspire you and show you how AI is expanding the possibilities of the types of side hustles you can now build and how much faster you can build them. But if you want me to create a full tutorial on this specific AI phone agent

10:27business, let me know in the comments. Also, if you want to copy and paste the prompts I use to build this AI phone agent, you can grab them from my free video checklist. But let's move on to the last side hustle in the list, which is my absolute favorite because it's the one that's made me the most by far. And it's completely free to set up. And not only that, it can also be monetized in a bunch of different ways. So, you're not just relying on one income stream. And when I say this one has made me the most money so far, I'm talking six figures

10:54every year since I started. What I'm talking about is to start a personal brand. Personal brand just means you build an online presence around yourself. what you've learned throughout your life, a skill you might have, or even your hobbies and passions. Then you post content about it online, whether it's Instagram, Tik Tok, YouTube, Pinterest, or even written content like X threads, Substack, or your own blog, so people can learn more about you and what you do. Then you can start monetizing that content through digital products, physical products, affiliate links, brand partnerships, or even ad revenue like YouTube. But I want you to get the idea out of your head that to

11:33build a personal brand that actually makes money, you have to become some famous influencer with a million followers or a big expert on a complicated topic. Because that's the biggest lie I need to debunk right now. I started my personal brand with zero followers and it made me over 10K by month two and people had no idea who I was. Most people still don't know who I am. I'll show you some other seven-figure personal brands on different topics than mine in just a second. But the way I monetized my personal brand when I first started was with affiliate marketing and digital products. And later on, I added in

12:07YouTube AdSense revenue and brand partnerships once it started growing. And starting a personal brand is completely free to do and incredibly fast when you use AI to help you choose your niche, create your content, and build your affiliate or digital products. And here's the exact AI workflow you can follow to put your own personal brand together. First, use this interview style prompt to get Claude or Chat GPT to help you figure out what topic you should build your personal brand around. Then the AI will ask you

12:34questions to help you decide your niche. You can then teach Claude or Chat GPT to create content ideas for you that sound just like you, including hooks, scripts, and even images. Then you can use an AI content automation app like Blot to create and post all your content for you automatically. Then once you're posting

12:52consistently, that's when you monetize. You can share products you already use and love as affiliate links. Package what you know into digital products like guides or ebooks. Offer online coaching or do paid brand partnerships. I've personally made six figures from each one of these, so I know they all work. You just need to pick one, take the first step, then keep building as you grow. Because when you build a personal brand, it's not one income stream. It's multiple all working together to build a sustainable business. And here's some examples of other successful personal brands to show you it's not just me and it's not just my niche either. For

13:27example, here's a woman who built a sevenfigure business teaching people how to paint. Here's another personal brand that helps moms and teachers make learning fun. Also 7 figures. And here's another sevenfigure personal brand teaching people how to garden. My own personal brand started as a free little side hustle sharing what I know about online business and it snowballed into a multiple six-figure brand faster than I ever thought it could. It actually

13:51replaced my 9 toive job within a year. And AI is the reason I can run this whole thing by myself without a team. So the three AI side hustles we talked about today were first faceless language practice channels on YouTube that were monetized by the YouTube partner program and digital products. Second was AI phone agents where businesses pay you as a freelancer to create and set them up for them. And third, a personal brand where you build a business around you and what you know. Then monetize it with all of the above. Digital products, affiliate products, AdSense revenue, or brand partnerships. But let me know in

14:26the comments which one of these AI side hustles you like best, or which one you want me to turn into a full step-by-step tutorial. Whichever one gets the most comments, I'll create a full tutorial for. And the last thing I need to say, if you're serious about starting one of these side hustles, I obviously can't guarantee how much money you will make,

14:42because that's impossible for me to do. The only person who can guarantee your success is you. If you want this to work, you have to put in the work to make it happen. But consistency and determination are the keys here. You never know what's going to happen. So, take action and don't give up.
