7 EASY To Start One-Person Businesses Using Claude AI ($200+/Day)

Today, I'm going to show you seven easy to start oneperson businesses using Claude AI that can realistically make you $200 a day or more. And I know because I built my own oneperson business from absolute zero. And I've personally helped over a hundred regular people build theirs in my community as well. So, when I tell you that this works, I am not making it up. And here's why. Now is the moment. The CEO of the company that makes Claude just went on record saying that the first oneperson billiondoll company is going to arrive this year. Meanwhile, 29.8 and 8 million people are already running zero employee businesses and they're pulling in $1.7 trillion a year between them and that's over 75% of businesses in the United States. So this isn't a maybe it's already happening in your early. Now with that being said, I am going to be realistic here and I'm going to tell you the pros and cons of each one of these so that you can decide if it's best for you. So if you appreciate me making these types of videos and you want to see me make more of them in the future, then let me know by gently cheersing that like button and let's go ahead and jump into it right now. So the first business is using cloud AI to build digital products like apps, tools, dashboards, templates, PDFs, etc. that people can pay you for. So take a guy named Alec just as an example. He built three digital products with Claude in 18 minutes and he's pulling $27,000 a month. And he talked about it in this video. And then I'm going to take that over into Claude and just paste it in. We're going to do this in the default chat mode so that we can create a prompt to use in Claude design. >> And here's what's wild. He is not a coder. He doesn't write a single line of code. He just talks to Claude. He tells it what he wants and Claude builds the thing. Same story with a guy named Pavon. He made a business dashboard in 3 minutes just by describing it out loud. And that one video pulled over 700,000 views because people are hungry for this. And the reason it works is stupidly simple. Every business on Earth needs tools. Most of them are still paying developers $5,000 or duct taping spreadsheets together for stuff that Claude now builds in 5 minutes. And that's insane. And there's also a guy named Jason Lee who does exactly this as well. He builds entire apps just by talking to Claude. No coding background and he's probably making six figures with this channel. And he made this video about how he vibecoded a 400k per month app with Claude code which is pretty awesome and it scales further than you think, right? >> But I just want to show you how achievable something like this today versus 10 years ago. >> A 20-year-old named Joe Papopoulos built an AI product business that's now worth over $1 million and he started with $500. So none of these guys are special. They're just early and they're letting Claude do the heavy lifting. So, here's how you actually start. You don't need an idea that nobody's thought of. In fact, that's a terrible idea to do an idea that nobody's thought of. Now, there's two ways to do this. The first one is you pick one small annoying problem that you already understand and you describe it to Claude and you let it build a simple version that you can sell. Now, I'm going to put a Claude prompt up on the screen. You can copy and paste this Claude prompt and put it into Claude to get started on this. Additionally, there's going to be Claude skills and resources that we put down the description in the pin comment below. It should be the third link down there that you can use and follow along to this video. That will make these even better. Now, the second way of doing this is you find products that already exist and then you make them more specific for a type of business owner. So, a more advanced version of this would be Claio. Claio is an email marketing platform, but it's specifically for e-commerce business owners, aka people who sell physical products. Almost all of the other email marketing tools were trying to be a one-sizefits-all tool for everyone. But Clavio niched down and they made something that is perfect for e-commerce business owners. Now, by the way, you don't have to create an app. Apps are relatively complicated. There's lots of other different types of digital products out there and apps are just one of them. And that brings us to the second oneperson business on the list, which is a type of digital product, and that is Amazon KDP. And this is basically where you're publishing books on Amazon that Claude writes for you. So, a guy named Craig runs a whole channel documenting this. And he's making $4,000 a month selling books on Amazon. Now, I really like his channel because he's basically documenting his journey of becoming an expert, right? He's not someone who's already made millions of dollars. He's just someone who just started. He's making his first money doing it and he's documenting his journey, which I think is pretty awesome. And he's not a writer either. He picks a topic, he has AI write the book, he uploads it, and Amazon prints and ships it. He just collects the royalty. Then you've got Shawn Dolit. Now, he is an expert on Amazon KDP. And he built a business that he made lots of money from, and then he sold it for nearly a million dollars starting from zero. And then he started talking about exactly how he did it on YouTube. And for years, Sean was stuck making $30,000 a month on YouTube. But then he joined our program and we helped him scale his business to $500,000 in a single month. And then there's another community member of mine, Jenny, who pulled in $336,000 from book sales. Now, I would say that Jenny is also an expert and she talks about how she did it on YouTube as well. And by the way, this isn't some tiny niche. Amazon paid authors over $2 billion last year and none of them are special, right? They just understood that Amazon will pay you every single month for a book that you only have to make once. And that is how the royalty business works. So here's how you start. You pick a topic that people are already searching for, right? And that's going to be a reoccurring theme here. You are not trying to reinvent the wheel. You are just making a slightly better or a slightly different version of a wheel that already exists. So the analogy here would be, let's just say there's a wheel that's designed for asphalt. You could make a wheel that's designed for off-roading. That's what you're trying to do. and then you can have Claude write the book for you and it's essentially going to act as your ghostriter and then you edit the book to make sure it's good and then you upload it to Amazon and it is completely free to publish. Now, if you're interested in this, I would recommend checking out those channels like Shaun's or Jenny's for further information. With that being said, here's how you can get it started. Take this Claude prompt, which I'll put on the screen right here. Screenshot it, copy and paste it into Claude. It's going to interview you until it has enough context to give you a really good output. And that'll be a good place for you to start. All right, YouTube just got 10 times easier and nobody is talking about it. You used to need an entire film crew and it used to be a full-time job for you to just do any work at all on YouTube. But now you can get work done in as little as 15 to 30 minutes a day and you can actually grow a fulltime YouTube channel. That's exactly what I'm going to be talking about at the live training that we're doing this week. Exactly how to grow your YouTube channel. So click the link in the description, the pin comment below to check that out, guys. I will be answering questions before, during, and after the live training. It's completely free. Plus, I'll be giving away an AI that is designed to help you pick your niche if you don't have one in the first place, or if you already have a niche, it's going to help you make it 10 times better. So, really looking forward to talking with you guys. This is stuff that we never talked about before. So, click that link in the description below, and I look forward to seeing you there. All right, number three is making a YouTube channel, talking about something that you already know, and letting Claude do all the work behind the scenes. So, take Dr. Matt Baker. He runs a channel called Useful Charts where he explains history charts. He's got 2 million subscribers and he makes money from ads and sells the charts as posters as well. And he is a oneperson business. And those charts, well, those are exactly the kind of things that Claude builds for you now. And by the way, these types of charts would have taken a long time to make in the past, but Claude can make them very quickly. Or take our community member, Nurse Jen. She's a nurse, not a tech person, and she didn't have any experience on camera. And just a few months ago, she was watching a video just like you're watching right now. Then she followed my advice, joined my community, and now she went from zero to 4.5 million plus views making videos about healthcare navigation. And this is stuff that is very simple to her, right? It's common sense to her because she's been doing it for such a long time, but it is not common sense to most people out there. And this is literally just stuff that she talks about to her patients every single day, but instead of just telling one patient at a time, she talked about the same stuff, recorded it on camera, put it on YouTube, and now she's been able to help millions of people with the same exact information. And there was a day where she made $980. And overall, she's making over $10,000 a month now. And she went from zero to a full-time income in about a month or two. And she was able to quit her job as a nurse. And she's now traveling all over the United States in a camper van, recording her videos in the back of the van, living her dream life, and making her money from YouTube. And the reason this works is the bar on the floor right now. People are starving for real humans talking about stuff that they actually know. And my own brother proved it. His name is Zach. He's in his 50s and he spent 30 years in the trades. And he never recorded a video in his entire life besides just stuff that he recorded on his phone. And he was so stiff in his first video that people literally thought that he was an AI channel. But that first video that he posted got over 820,000 views. And within 29 days, he got monetized and made $214 in a single day, right? So, he went from zero to a full-time income in less than one month. And by the end of his first year, he made over $18,000 in a single month. So, here's how you start. You pick a topic that you know more about than a random stranger. Then you have Claude find proven video ideas and write the script. And you just talk to the video. So, the source of the information is you. And a lot of the time, this is going to be about something that you've already spent a lot of time doing, like your job or your hobbies or something you've been doing for a long time or problems that you've had that you've been able to overcome that you could help other people overcome faster. And you can go ahead and take this Claude prompt that I'll put on the screen right here. You can screenshot this, copy and paste it, put it into Claude, and it's going to interview you until it has enough information to give you a good output. And this will be a good place to start. With that being said, if this is something that you're interested in, I'm actually doing a free live training this week where I'm going to reveal exactly how I helped my brother go from zero to a full-time income in less than one month. And you can attend that by clicking the link in the description and the pin comment below. Additionally, I will be giving away an AI that we've literally had hundreds of people tell us is one of the best AIs they've ever used that's going to help you choose your niche if you don't have one in the first place or if you already have a niche, it's going to help you make it 10 times better. And this is called the niche validator. Now, I'm giving this away at the workshop, and I'm going to give you a step-by-step guide for exactly how you can get started on YouTube. So, definitely don't miss out on that. Click that link in the description and the pin comment below, and I look forward to seeing you there. All right, so the fourth business is turning a hobby that you love into a content brand and letting Claude run the whole thing. Now, this one's for people who think, "I'm not an expert in anything." Well, there's a girl named Carrie who makes videos about journaling, right? And she has 6,000 subscribers, and one of her videos did a 100 times better than her average from a hobby. Now, here's how the money actually works. You build a small channel around the hobby, then you sell them digital products, guides, templates, printables, one-on-one coaching, services, etc. And Claude can make all of it for you, or at least do most of the heavy lifting for you. And it's not just her. There's another creator, Frankie, who scaled the same journaling niche to over 80,000 subscribers. And this just shows that it really doesn't matter how small the hobby feels. CNBC ran a whole story on a woman who got laid off from her dream job and turned junk journaling into a real business. And she is not special. She just took something that she loved and she let it become products and content. Now, you might be thinking, "Well, Shane, there's no way that these people are actually making money. You have to have millions of subscribers to make a full-time income from YouTube." Well, actually, you don't. Just check out Carla as an example. Carla's another one of our community members. And when she had about 1.5K subscribers, she was getting about 100 to 200 views per video. She had a video that took off. She closed a $106,000 contract from one of those videos that only got 100 to 200 views. If you're serving the right niche, you have the right system, and you're selling the right thing, you absolutely can make a full-time income from a small channel because a lot of YouTubers mess up when it comes to monetization. And that is something else that I will be talking about in detail at the live training that I'm doing this week. So again, click that link in the description in the pin comment below, and I look forward to seeing you there. But here's how you'd start specifically for hobbies or passions. Go ahead and take this Claude prompt, which I'll put on the screen, screenshot it, drop it into Claude, and it's going to interview you until it has enough information to give you a really good output. And then it's going to help you build the first version of that product with you. All right. Next is niche content and services. So the fifth business is picking one evergreen niche like cars and becoming the person who helps everyone in it. So Scotty Kilmer, just as an example, has been a mechanic for over 50 years. And he just talks about cars, what to buy, what to avoid, and he built a channel of over 6 million subscribers. And it's literally just one guy in his garage. And he made over $24 million on YouTube. And he said that in just one month he made more money on YouTube than he did in his entire career as a mechanic. >> Then once I got going on YouTube in one month I would make more money than we'd saved in 40 years. In one month so it makes a big difference. >> And cards are just an example, right? Any niche that people spend real money and have real problems in works the same exact way. And there's also a guy named Nick runs Burlocker. He's got about 370,000 subscribers and he's just filming himself working on cool cars. >> Perfect. >> Man, that coloration. That is beautiful. >> And you can sell a service in this niche, not just content. So, this guy right here built a $2.3 million business just negotiating car deals for people from home. And Claude can do the pricing, research, and the negotiations for you. And if that wasn't enough, there's also Doug Demiro. He built a large YouTube channel where he reviewed cars. And then he launched a car auction website where people could buy and sell cars. And then he sold it for $80 million. And honestly, I could just go on and on and on with just the car niche alone. But I think you get the point. None of these people are special. They picked a niche that people care about and they showed up. So here's how to start. You pick a niche that you're actually into where people spend money and you have Claude build your content plan and research every topic and you show up consistently. So if you're interested in this, go ahead and screenshot this Claude prompt. Drop it into Claude. It's going to interview you until it has enough information to help you pick a profitable evergreen niche and then map out a content plan and design one service that you could sell inside that niche. All right, next is an email newsletter. And this is such a good oneperson business. So basically, you pick a topic, you build a list of subscribers, and you make money from sponsors and paid subscriptions. So a guy named Matt McCra breaks down how he writes a $50,000 a month newsletter. And here's the wildest part. The writing is the easy part now. Claude does 95% of it. For instance, there's a creator named Matt PA whose whole thing is using Claude to write newsletters better than 99% of people. Now, just to be clear here, the source information still needs to come from you. If the source information doesn't come from you, it's probably going to end up as AI slop. And you don't want to make AI slop. There's way too much of that on the internet these days. But what Claude can do is basically act like your ghostriter. So, it interviews you. And when I say talk, I mean quite literally, you talk to it, right? I almost never type to Claude. I almost always talk to it, which is quite easy to do. and then just do what I like to call a yap session and then it can write some really good content for you. And by the way, the ceiling on this is insane. The guys at My First Million broke down a newsletter business that's worth over a hundred million dollars. >> The more niche you go, I think the more clear it becomes how you can directly monetize your audience. >> So, if you're interested in this, here's how to get started. You pick a topic that people want updates on, and then you have Claude write your first issues and a growth plan, and you start collecting emails. So, you can screenshot this Claude prompt right here, put it into Claude. It's going to interview you until it has enough context to give you a good answer. And one pro tip that I'll say about newsletters is it's kind of in the name news. A lot of the time the best newsletters are going to keep you updated on what the newest news in your industry is. So it's basically curated news in whatever your topic niche or industry is. And Twitter or X is one of the best places to get news. So you definitely want to connect Claude to Twitter to help you write these newsletters and to get best results. But now let's talk about a coaching business. So the seventh business is the one that I built myself, which is coaching. So, this is basically taking what you're good at and then teaching other people how to do it. Now, I started my coaching business completely alone. Right? For the first 3 to 6 months of my coaching business, it was just me and a laptop. But now, I've helped well over a hundred regular people build their own oneperson businesses on YouTube. And these people are not geniuses. They're not people that work 100 hours a week. Most of them are just normal people that are sharing something that is common sense to them, something that they've already done with other people. So, great example of that is Antoine. He makes content helping people get into tech sales. And the reason he's able to do that is because he's very experienced in tech sales. He's made over $500,000 in a single year working as a tech sales specialist. But you might be thinking, "Well, Shane, I haven't made $500,000 a year. I guess I can't do that." Well, actually, there's lots of other people that make far less than that that have done the same thing. So just as an example, Josh Matakor, he just started making really useful videos in the IT and cyber security space, helping people get the right certifications, helping them choose whether they should get a degree or not, if they do choose to get a degree, which college they should go to, and how they can graduate from college faster and which jobs are the best to get into and in what order you should get into those jobs, etc., etc. And when he first started working with me, he had a small channel. He was making less than $1,000 a month with his channel. And what's very interesting about him is before he made a lot of money with his channel, he actually used his channel to get his dream job. and he had fang companies and Fortune50 companies reaching out to him offering him jobs. Now, just to put this in perspective, these are some of the biggest and most prestigious companies in the world. And for fame companies, for instance, it is harder to get into a fang company than it is to get into Harvard or Yale. Seriously, they have a lower acceptance rate. And usually, you have to apply to these jobs for years and you're still not going to get accepted. But these companies were reaching out to him. So, he got an offer from several different fang companies and Fortune50 companies and ended up going with one of them for his dream job where he got to travel the world. He lived in Japan and he was working a remote job making multiple six figures a year. And then after he landed that job, he made it to 5,000 a month, 10,000 a month, then $30,000 a month with his YouTube channel, even though he was still doing it part-time. And eventually scaled all the way up to $186,000 in a single month using my strategies. And of course, he quit his dream job because it just didn't make sense for him at that point. But the thing that all these people have in common is they stopped guessing and they followed a proven playbook. And the work that used to take a whole team, the content, the curriculum, the systems, Claude can do most of it now for you, right? It can do the heavy lifting. And again, this is the playbook that I'm going to be talking about in my live training that I'm doing this week. So, click that link in the description in the pin comment below. But here's how to start with this one. If you're interested in becoming a coach, you figure out the one thing that you know that other people would pay to learn. And a lot of the time it's just helping people get into the same job that you're already in or helping people use a software or a coding language that you already know how to use or helping people learn the skills so that they can increase their income or get a better job etc etc or answering the same questions that you answer for customers, clients or patients on a day-to-day basis just like nurse Jyn was doing when she was answering questions that older patients were asking her every single day. So here's the claude prompt to get started with this if you're interested. I'll put it up on the screen. You can screenshot it, put it into Claude, and it'll interview you until it has enough context to give you a good answer. Now, that's a good place to get started. But, like I said, I am giving away the niche validator AI at the live training that I'm doing this week, and it is insanely good. I can't tell you how many comments I've gotten from people that have said it's like the best AI they've ever used. So, definitely click that link in the description, the pin comment below to attend that live training, and I look forward to seeing you there. With that being said, I know that 99% of you are going to watch my free content, get a ton of value out of it. You're going to download my free resources, get a ton of value out of those, and you're going to attend my live trainings, which are also completely free, and get a ton of value out of that, and we are never going to end up working together. And that is completely okay with me. I always want to give way more value than what I receive and expect nothing in return. With that being said, there's always going to be that 1% of you, or 0.1% of you out there that want a one-on-one mentorship experience because you want to grow a YouTube channel, grow a personal brand, and get results as fast as you possibly can. And you might have noticed that all of these different oneperson businesses have one thing in common, and that is they promote whatever their product or service is with YouTube because all of these one-person businesses work, but they all need traffic. And YouTube is the best form of traffic on the internet. So, if you are that 1% or 0.1% out there that wants a one-on-one mentorship experience, or you want us to literally just do the work for you, then go ahead and book a call with us by clicking the second link in the description in the pin comment below. but only book the call if you're very serious about growing and making money on YouTube. We can only onboard a very small group of people at a time. Right now, we're accepting five people into the program and we only accept about 18% of people who apply. We're basically the Harvard of YouTube coaching at this point. With that being said, if you want to see a great example of the results that we get people, you can check out this video of Nurse Jen by clicking right here where I interview her and she tells her whole story of exactly how we helped her make a full-time income from YouTube and quit her 9 toive job and be able to travel all over the US with a oneperson business. And you can check that video out by clicking right here.
