7 BEST AI Businesses To Start BEFORE 2027 — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00What is the best way to make money with
- 0:02AI as a beginner? It is to start a
- 0:03business. But I always seem to be late
- 0:05to the party. Look, I got into drop
- 0:07shipping way too late. I got into crypto
- 0:09when it was already popping and very
- 0:11expensive, but I'm not going to be late
- 0:13this time. I promise. Because I found
- 0:15seven AI businesses that you and I
- 0:17should start before 2027. Now, why 2027?
- 0:21Because I say so and I'm the facts. No,
- 0:23but okay, look, we all know what works
- 0:25this year. We don't know what's going to
- 0:27work next year with AI and how
- 0:29everything is changing. So, let's begin.
- 0:31Okay, first up, if you're building
- 0:33websites or thinking about starting to
- 0:35build websites, give up completely.
- 0:37Forget about it. It's too saturated and
- 0:39you're fighting for scraps. Nobody gives
- 0:41a In 2026 and 2027, businesses
- 0:45need something far more valuable. They
- 0:47need to stop answering the same stupid
- 0:49questions every single day. And you can
- 0:51build them an AI customer support bot
- 0:54that handles everything for them. And
- 0:56you charge a setup fee and a monthly
- 0:58retainer for keeping the bot up to date
- 1:01and fixing any issues. That's called an
- 1:03AI chatbot and it's literally the best
- 1:05business model just sitting there and
- 1:07waiting around. But okay, I hear your
- 1:09complaints and suspicions already. Yes,
- 1:12these support bots are really annoying
- 1:14when you're trying to contact support.
- 1:16And all you get is a bot that keeps
- 1:17saying, "Can you please repeat that? Can
- 1:19you repeat that?" And when you finally
- 1:21get to a real person that can actually
- 1:22help you, you're very happy. But these
- 1:25customer support bots and other bots are
- 1:27very good for companies because they
- 1:28basically save them money. They handle
- 1:30basic questions that just waste the time
- 1:32of their support staff. And there are so
- 1:34many free online courses like this one
- 1:37on building these for free. Even without
- 1:40programming skills at all. So look, of
- 1:41course it's a little bit tricky getting
- 1:43started building chatbots, but you don't
- 1:45need programming skills to do this. You
- 1:47don't need tech skills. But still, I get
- 1:49it. It's a little bit tricky. And the
- 1:51next business is actually extremely
- 1:53simple. So, I'll give AI chatbots a
- 1:56solid 7.5 out of 10 final score. Next up
- 1:59is going to be AI publishing. So, this
- 2:01is not about spamming out AI slop, which
- 2:04seems to be taking over the internet as
- 2:05we speak. It's literally impossible to
- 2:07watch reels or YouTube shorts without
- 2:09AI, and it's just a lot of modified crap
- 2:11nowadays. This is actually about selling
- 2:14books. It's about making simple books
- 2:16that people already buy every single day
- 2:18on Amazon. Now, Amazon has something
- 2:20called Amazon KDP, which I'm very
- 2:22familiar with, and lets anybody
- 2:24basically publish books and sell them on
- 2:26the Amazon platform. Now, full
- 2:28disclaimer, this is not about trying to
- 2:30write the next Harry Potter book with
- 2:32AI. We're not going to write real long
- 2:34books, even if you could do that. And
- 2:36the great thing is, you just upload a
- 2:38digital version of your book, and Amazon
- 2:40then handles literally everything for
- 2:42you. It prints it when somebody buys it,
- 2:44they ship it, they handle customer
- 2:46service, complaints, everything. They
- 2:48literally do everything for you. And
- 2:50millions of people are already using
- 2:52Amazon looking to buy books, and they
- 2:54will literally bring the customers to
- 2:56you as well. And then you split the
- 2:58profits with Amazon, and just enjoy,
- 3:00which I think is pretty fair. So, the
- 3:02books we're going to create are called
- 3:03low-content books. Now, these are
- 3:05basically journals, they're planners,
- 3:07they're workbooks, beginner guides, all
- 3:09that type of stuff that are not regular
- 3:12novels. And there are AI tools out there
- 3:14now which can basically create these for
- 3:16free. It can help you with research, it
- 3:18can help you basically figure out
- 3:19everything. So, I also made a full guide
- 3:21on KDP for free on the channel, so check
- 3:23that out if you're interested. I'll put
- 3:25a link down below as well. KDP is free
- 3:27to start and very scalable, because once
- 3:29the engine is up and you publish a book,
- 3:31it kind of does its own thing. But I do
- 3:33want to be really clear, you need to get
- 3:35really good at this, and it takes some
- 3:36time to do it. So, I don't recommend
- 3:38these types of businesses if you're
- 3:39broke and you need money right this
- 3:41week. It's not going to work by next
- 3:43week, that's just how it is. That would
- 3:44be completely stressful and just
- 3:46unrealistic. In that case, it's better
- 3:48to get a job and start doing this on the
- 3:49side, or start with one of the quicker
- 3:52businesses up next. Eight out of 10. So,
- 3:55next up is going to be AI repurposing.
- 3:57Now, whether you love or hate it, AI is
- 3:59becoming an increasingly big player in
- 4:01the short-form content space. Not just
- 4:04to create AI slop, but actually create
- 4:05real videos. And creators and businesses
- 4:08need these clips non-stop. We see it
- 4:10with streamers who literally have people
- 4:12that just sit and watch their streams
- 4:14all the time, making clips of anything
- 4:16that's interesting. But nowadays, there
- 4:19are also tools that help you do this.
- 4:20And they basically scan everything in
- 4:22your video, and then you can use these
- 4:24AI softwares to turn one long video
- 4:27into, let's say, 20 short-form content
- 4:29videos. Now, I'm not sponsored by any of
- 4:31these, but they include, for example,
- 4:33Opus Clip, Sub Magic, and other tools
- 4:35like that. And basically, what you do is
- 4:37just throw it in the video, and AI is
- 4:39going to find the best moments. It will
- 4:40really quickly find these things, and
- 4:42then you can pick and choose yourself,
- 4:44and AI will create the clips as you
- 4:46request them. Now, of course, only clip
- 4:48videos that you have permission to use,
- 4:50but there are literally people running
- 4:51empires with this. Either they're
- 4:54working alone using AI, or they're
- 4:56building in giant teams that everybody
- 4:58in the team uses AI to clip content for
- 5:01other people. Because there's literally
- 5:03no cost to this, except maybe a software
- 5:05and a subscription, but the barrier to
- 5:07entry is literally so low. Eight out of
- 5:1010.
- 5:11All right, next up is going to be AI
- 5:12apps. And there are actually now AI
- 5:14tools allowing you to build applications
- 5:16and websites and software really quickly
- 5:19with no coding skills whatsoever. Take
- 5:22lovable, for example. Just open up the
- 5:24lovable website, and they're going to
- 5:25ask you for a prompt. You can then say,
- 5:28"I want this. I want this." And within
- 5:30seconds, they will literally generate
- 5:33the first draft of a software, a
- 5:35prototype ready for you. And then you
- 5:37can customize it and just adjust it as
- 5:39you want to, of course. But just a few
- 5:41years ago, this would literally seem
- 5:42impossible. Like, I think this company
- 5:44was launched in 2023, and it's a billion
- 5:47dollar business now. So, it's just been
- 5:49exploding over the past few years and it
- 5:51doesn't take any investment either
- 5:53because they literally have a free plan.
- 5:55And you can see some examples here on
- 5:56the website. We have an exam grading
- 5:58app, we have a fitness app, sports app,
- 6:00marketing app, all these types of things
- 6:03literally built using artificial
- 6:05intelligence. And if you get really good
- 6:06at this, you can certainly offer it as a
- 6:08service to people where you build it for
- 6:10them or you can just build an awesome
- 6:12app yourself which you start to make
- 6:14money from and monetize somehow. Eight
- 6:17out of 10 final score. The next step is
- 6:19going to be AI education and there is a
- 6:21huge market of people wanting to learn
- 6:23AI skills like regular people you and I,
- 6:26which means there is an opportunity for
- 6:27somebody to teach it. Schools clearly
- 6:30aren't teaching this properly and
- 6:32there's a lot of untapped niches. We're
- 6:33talking for example AI for lawyers, you
- 6:36could be teaching that. You could be
- 6:37teaching AI to architects or engineers,
- 6:40AI for whatever. These guys don't want
- 6:43the techy AI stuff. They want practical
- 6:46insights and ways to help with
- 6:48implementing AI into their work or their
- 6:50business, making AI really useful for
- 6:52them. And this is literally the place to
- 6:54start a business. Like you can start
- 6:55consulting people, you can start
- 6:57consulting businesses, helping people
- 6:59with AI for a particular niche and you
- 7:01can start an education company offering
- 7:03trainings, courses, all that good stuff.
- 7:05You learn it, you teach it. But yeah, I
- 7:07understand Lucas that sounds a little
- 7:09bit vague and that's because I can't
- 7:10really tell you what to teach. There's
- 7:12so many different niches. 8.5 out of 10.
- 7:15Next step is something way more concrete
- 7:17and simple and that is AI client
- 7:20acquisition systems. Now, before you say
- 7:22Lucas, what is this BS? Client
- 7:24acquisition is about helping businesses
- 7:27bring in new customers, new clients.
- 7:30Usually by sending out emails,
- 7:32scheduling meetings, pitching things and
- 7:34companies actually hire and pay people
- 7:36to do this either on a commission for
- 7:38each customer you bring or on a set
- 7:41salary. So, there are many different
- 7:42options. But, nowadays, AI can help you
- 7:44with a do a lot of these things, and you
- 7:46can build an AI client acquisition
- 7:48system, long name, that does much of the
- 7:51work on autopilot. You can then sell
- 7:53these systems over to the companies and
- 7:56get paid for it. Because AI can help you
- 7:58pretty much automatically find ideal
- 8:00customers. They can scout for them on
- 8:02the internet, and once you find them, AI
- 8:05can even contact, reach out, follow up,
- 8:08send emails, schedule calls, and go
- 8:10through the entire sequence themselves.
- 8:13But, I get it. It sounds difficult. And
- 8:14yeah, it's a little bit more difficult.
- 8:16You do need to deal with clients, a lot
- 8:17of moving pieces. So, next up is a much
- 8:20simpler AI business. I'll give it a
- 8:23score of seven out of 10 because I don't
- 8:24think for most people it's the easiest
- 8:26version to start. Next up, we can't talk
- 8:29about AI while leaving out AI agents.
- 8:32So, I'm going to keep it real, okay? No
- 8:34crap about how the robots are here to
- 8:36take over and how the AI agents are
- 8:37killing us. AI agent sounds just very
- 8:41futuristic and fancy, but really it's
- 8:43just an automated bot that does whatever
- 8:46they're told. If you train it to set
- 8:47appointments, it can do that. If you
- 8:49train it to be your assistant, it can do
- 8:51that. If you train it to sing a song, it
- 8:53could probably do that, too. Whatever
- 8:55you want to do. But, most people have no
- 8:56clue how AI agents really work, how to
- 8:59build them, and it's a really valuable
- 9:01skill. You basically automate things and
- 9:04remove painful tasks. You create value.
- 9:08Coursera has some really neat courses on
- 9:10AI agents, not sponsored, but I'll
- 9:12always throw in a little shameless plug
- 9:14for our long-term partner. And that's
- 9:16it. Good luck, my friend. Business is
- 9:18hard, but I believe in you. I really do.
