Key Money-Making Insights
Focus on prompt engineering as a high-income skill rather than complex machine learning - it puts you in the top 10% of AI consultants. Build business wins first ($20-40k in sales) before starting content creation, and prioritize outreach and lead generation as your primary money-making activities. When offering services, avoid pure revenue-share deals and instead get setup fees upfront while delivering initial value for free.
Top Money-Making Q&As
Question 1
What should I learn to become an expert AI consultant, beyond basic automations? Should I learn machine learning and prompt engineering?
Skip the deep math. I made that mistake. Focus on prompt engineering; it's a high-income skill. Read the Anthropic prompt guide from top to bottom. That alone puts you in the top 10% of consultants. Then just use the models constantly.
Question 2
I have 24/7 free time. How should I use it to grow my business and start a monetizable YouTube channel?
Don't start a YouTube channel if you have no accomplishments. First, get a win in business. Get social proof. Sell something, make $20-40k. Then you'll have something to talk about. Focus on outreach and sales, not content.
Question 3
I'm a copywriter and funnel builder. How should I frame a revenue-share offer to get clients?
Don't do rev-share upfront if you don't have money. Get a setup fee. Deliver some value for free, then pitch and ask for money. Beginners are forced into performance deals; you need to upskill your sales to get paid before you perform.
