00:00Can I show you 10 ways that people are earning $700 a day, $2,000 a day, and sometimes even
00:06over $3,000 per day
00:08using Google's insanely powerful Nano Banana AI image generator that you can get for free?
00:15And can I show you the prompts and tricks that they are using, including the prompts and tricks that I'm
00:19using
00:20in my own one-person AI business that makes money with Nano Banana?
00:24Well, that's the challenge I've set myself today.
00:27And since your time is valuable, I don't want to waste any of it, so let's just jump straight into
00:31it.
00:32And we'll start out with the first way that people are making money, learn to draw books.
00:36So people are self-publishing these with the help of AI, and these can make a lot of money.
00:41For example, check it out.
00:43This book was published just two months ago as of me filming this video, and it's a cool concept.
00:48You can see that it features popular pictures kids like to draw, then breaks it down into different shapes needed
00:53to make the picture.
00:55And check this out.
00:55If we come and take the bestseller's rank for this book and then pop it into an Amazon sales estimator
01:01tool,
01:01you'll see that it estimates that this book is selling between 23 to 29 copies a day,
01:07which means we can estimate that this book is bringing in anywhere from $250 to over $300 in sales per
01:14day.
01:15And that's not all, because this creator also launched two other books on the same day too, releasing three books
01:20in total.
01:21And so if we take their bestseller's ranking and calculate their sales and add them into the mix,
01:26it comes out in total to anywhere from $711 to over $800 in sales per day.
01:34Wow.
01:34And, you know, these days, of course, it's never been easier to self-publish a book like this thanks to
01:40Amazon's self-publishing service, KDP.
01:42You just upload a PDF of the book that you want to sell, and Amazon will turn it into a
01:47listing.
01:47And then each time a customer buys one of your books, their print-on-demand service will print your book
01:52and ship it out to the customer.
01:54They'll remove their printing and shipping costs from the money paid and pay you the rest of the profit as
01:58a commission.
01:59So it's quite a passive, hands-off business model.
02:02And as I said, creators these days are using AI to help them create books like this.
02:07And in particular, Nano Banana Pro, which is Google's AI image generator, is especially useful as it can help you
02:13create these learn-to-draw images.
02:15And so if you want to get this for free, currently you can.
02:18Because it is included in the Pro version of Google's AI Gemini, which right now is giving away a one
02:24-month subscription for free.
02:25So if you don't have it already, you can sign up to access it for free.
02:29Then come inside of Gemini and select Nano Banana.
02:32Then explain what you want it to draw.
02:34So for me, I uploaded a reference image of the style I wanted, and I got it to draw for
02:38me a smiling goldfish.
02:40Next, I explained that I wanted it to turn this image into a six-step learn-to-draw style image.
02:46And it's kind of crazy, but in just a few seconds, it made it for me.
02:50And so, of course, you could ask Nano Banana to now make any changes to it that you want.
02:55For example, I realized that the original circle didn't include the section where the tail fins attach to.
03:02For someone to follow these instructions, they would have had to have rubbed out an opening to the circle, which
03:08is not what we want.
03:09We want the child to be able to draw the goldfish in one go.
03:12So I asked Nano Banana to change the first circle to add it in.
03:15Although, as you can see, I accidentally asked it to add it on the left instead of the right.
03:21So I just fixed it by asking it to switch it to the right, and it did it no problem.
03:26That's how simple it is to edit images.
03:29You just ask for exactly what you want.
03:31I also find it helps if I explain why I want the change to, since Nano Banana can use that
03:37to add context to what it draws.
03:39And so, of course, once you have your images the way that you want them, you can just download them
03:43and pop them into a PDF creator like Canva, and then upload your PDF directly to Amazon KDP.
03:49And I'll tell you something, right?
03:51Nano Banana is also amazing at creating scavenger hunt books, which can be very popular on Amazon as well.
03:57So, for example, take this book here that was also independently published.
04:01Well, as you can see, the premise is simple.
04:04These are pages packed with objects and monster trucks that are hidden inside of it for kids to spot and
04:09find.
04:10And, well, if we go ahead and take its bestseller rank number and pop it into an Amazon sales estimator
04:15tool,
04:15you'll see it estimates it's selling anywhere from 5,000 to over 9,000 copies per month,
04:22which is kind of crazy when you consider that this is just one of over 30 books that this author
04:27has independently published in the past few years.
04:30Now, I have no idea if this creator is using AI or not to make these,
04:34but I wouldn't be surprised if they are, given that they were able to create and publish so many so
04:40quickly.
04:41But, yes, let me now show you how I would use Nano Banana myself to make my own scavenger hunt
04:46book.
04:46So, first of all, I got it to create for me a large, bright, colorful picture that could be printed
04:51across two book pages.
04:53Then I just came and made a few tweaks to it.
04:55Sometimes Nano Banana will get the image perfect on the first go.
04:58Other times, you have to tweak it, but since you can just tell it what you want, making these tweaks,
05:03I find is pretty simple.
05:05Then, once I had the image I wanted, I just downloaded it and then uploaded it into my favorite graphics
05:11editing app, which is Canva.
05:12And I added a rectangle where I wanted to add in my, can you spot this panel?
05:17And then I just came and uploaded this image back into Nano Banana and asked it to replace this rectangle
05:23with that panel
05:23and told it which animals I wanted it to add into the panel.
05:28And then that was it.
05:29Nano Banana went and added the panel for me, which is super cool.
05:33And, you know, speaking of creating and selling books, this leads me on to the next way that people are
05:38making money.
05:39Because, you see, here's the thing, right?
05:41When you publish a book, it's not just the book content that you need to create, is it?
05:46Nope, it's the book cover, too.
05:48And, you know, people are paying a lot of money to design agencies and freelancers that specialize in designing book
05:55covers.
05:55For example, I checked out this digital design agency that's been selling custom KDP book covers for a few months
06:02on Fiverr.
06:03And look, they have 14 orders in the queue, with their average gig price being $225 US.
06:10Well, if you do the math, if you calculate the sales and remove Fiverr's service fee, it still comes out
06:16to over $2,500.
06:19Wow.
06:19And the really cool thing about Nano Banana is that it is amazing at helping you create book covers.
06:25Yet, very few people seem to know that they can use it for this purpose.
06:28So, it almost feels like a bit of a secret.
06:31For example, I gave it an example book title, author, and some details about what I wanted my book cover
06:37to include.
06:37And then, let it go ahead and generate a cover for me.
06:40And it's kind of crazy, but in just a few seconds, it generated a cover for me.
06:45And then, once you've got your cover looking the way that you want, you can even start a new chat
06:50and ask the AI to turn it into a 3D mock-up for you as well.
06:54Nano Banana is really good at taking a 2D image of a product and turning it into a full 3D
07:00mock-up.
07:01And actually, speaking of being able to generate 3D mock-ups, this brings me on to another Nano Banana trick
07:07that very few people seem to know about, which is this.
07:11You can use it to create and draw a brand identity kit for you.
07:14Tell it what business you need to create a brand identity for and tell it what the kit should contain,
07:20such as logos, favicons, and a color palette.
07:22And then, let it do its magic.
07:24And here's the thing, right?
07:26Not only is this helpful for anyone who is starting their own new business or launching a new product and
07:31needs help creating their branding,
07:34but right now, branding is actually pretty popular, especially if you combine branding kits with 3D mock-ups.
07:41For example, you take this design agency here on Fiverr.
07:43Their top-selling gig combines a brand identity kit with 3D mock-ups, which they are selling for $150 US
07:50dollars.
07:51And look, they have 58 orders in the queue.
07:55Wow.
07:56But yes, let's now discuss the next way people are making money with Nano Banana, and that is with trendy
08:01AI animation videos.
08:03So, for example, you take this channel here on YouTube.
08:05It specializes in making AI animated YouTube shorts that are cool time lapses.
08:10These videos are super trendy and popular right now.
08:13For example, this video was posted just nine days ago, and it's already had over 59 million views.
08:20And as you can see on their social blade, this channel as a whole has had 300 million views in
08:26the past 30 days.
08:28Wow.
08:29That's kind of crazy, especially when you consider YouTube has a monetization program, the partner program,
08:34which lets us creators earn money from our videos.
08:36And here's a quick tip.
08:37An easy way to tell if a channel is in the partner program is if they have a membership.
08:42So, if you click join on this channel, for example, you can sign up for a paid fan membership.
08:47Now, not all channels turn it on.
08:49For example, I haven't turned it on.
08:51But if a channel has, then since it's a partner program-only feature, you know they have to be in
08:57the program.
08:58So, I went on to Reddit to see what YouTube Shorts creators these days are reporting to be earning for
09:02their videos.
09:03And the most common rate I saw posted was a 20 cent RPM, which means revenue per 1,000 views.
09:09Which means if we do the math, if they have a similar RPM, we could estimate that they could have
09:13earned over $60,000 for the month.
09:16Wow, that is absolutely crazy, especially when you see that with the right AI tools, these can be surprisingly simple
09:23to make.
09:24And for us, we will be using two AI tools.
09:26And obviously, one of those tools is going to be NanoBanana AI.
09:31And the second tool we'll be using is Clank, the most popular frame-to-frame AI animator that's currently available.
09:36And we will be using both of these tools to create mini clips, which we can then combine together.
09:41Because, you see, take this video here, right?
09:43It's had over 7 million views in the past three days.
09:46And, well, if you watch it closely, you will notice that it is actually five mini clips that have been
09:53combined together in a video editor and then sped up.
09:56And so, now that we know how these are made, let's try it out for ourselves.
10:00So, first, I asked NanoBanana to create a picture of an empty room and then I downloaded it to my
10:06computer and I started a new chat and uploaded the first image it made and asked it to change the
10:11floor and make it look like it had black stones added to it.
10:15And then I downloaded this image and I opened up that AI animator Clank and I used the first NanoBanana
10:21image as the first frame and the second image as the final frame.
10:26And I told it to add an animation in between these two frames showing a time-lapse of workers coming
10:32in and adding these stones.
10:34And then that was it.
10:36Clank made a time-lapse for me showing workers coming in and adding in the black stones to the floor.
10:41So, next up, I opened a new chat again with NanoBanana and asked it to edit the picture that we
10:46made with the black stones and to add epoxing to the flooring.
10:49And I uploaded this image and I came back to Clank and I changed it so that the black stone
10:54image now was the first frame and put our new image as the final frame.
10:59And I told Clank to add a smooth time-lapse, this time showing workers coming in and adding the epoxy
11:04to the flooring and then drying in place.
11:06And guess what?
11:08It made this time-lapse for me no problem.
11:10So, now we have just one more mini clip to add into this video.
11:13So, again, I came back to NanoBanana and uploaded the epoxy flooring image and then I got it to add
11:19furniture to the scene.
11:20And once it had made that image for me, I then downloaded it.
11:23And then finally, I came back to Clank and again switched it so that the epoxy flooring image was the
11:28first frame and our new image was the final frame.
11:30And I prompted it, telling Clank to add an animation showing a smooth time-lapse of workers coming in and
11:36adding the furniture.
11:37And that's it.
11:38Clank made it for me.
11:39So, here's the final animation with all of our mini clips combined and sped up in a video editor.
11:44And to make this, I used 75 credits.
11:47And something to keep in mind is that while you can try Clank for free, to use it commercially, you
11:52do need to upgrade to a paid plan.
11:54Luckily, though, they are still running a promo here where if you sign up using a referral code, you can
11:59get 50% free extra credits for the first month.
12:02So, you do the math, right?
12:03The $7 plan would give you 990 credits, which means you could make up to 13 videos like this, meaning
12:09each video would cost just 54 cents.
12:12Wow.
12:13That's insanely cheap, especially when you consider that you'd have to pay a human animator anywhere from $200 to $500
12:20to make a video like this for you.
12:22It's just insane, isn't it?
12:24How AI has made so many previously expensive business ideas finally affordable.
12:29So, if you need to access a referral code, I'll include a link to mine in the description of this
12:34video.
12:34And here's the thing.
12:35This isn't the only way that people are making money from these animated time lapses.
12:39I've also noticed a trend of people posting them to Instagram, such as this account here.
12:44They post these time lapses as reels, with several going viral.
12:47For example, this one was posted just one month ago, and it's already had over 4.8 million views.
12:52And it's interesting, because if you click their Instagram story, they have posted a clip which contains a phone number
12:59that you can call to get help for home renovations.
13:02So, my guess is that they are collecting phone numbers of people who are looking for luxury home renovations, and
13:08then selling them as leads to renovation companies in the client's local area.
13:13Plus, there is another way that people are making money with these Nano Banana frame-to-frame animations.
13:18And it's by starting an animation industry that focuses on a specialized customer.
13:23So, basically, I wouldn't just open a general animation agency.
13:27Instead, I would pick a niche customer and then create specialized animation services directly for them.
13:34Yep.
13:34For example, take this animation agency here on Fiverr.
13:37They specialize in creating animations for musicians that want their Spotify covers animated.
13:43By niching down, you can see they've been successful and have four orders in the queue today.
13:47And given their average standard price gig is $60, that means we can estimate that they've made about $200, which
13:53is very cool.
13:54Okay.
13:55I think it is time to shift gears and talk about the method that I am personally using to make
14:00money in my own AI business using Nano Banana AI.
14:04Which, as my longtime subscribers know, is actually quite simple.
14:07Well, I generate pictures that I then sell onto print-on-demand products for a profit by selling them with
14:13both Etsy and Shopify.
14:14Because, seriously, print-on-demand products can be very popular.
14:17For example, take this T-shirt here on Etsy.
14:20In the past 24 hours, 11 people have bought this.
14:23And take this print-on-demand mug here on Etsy.
14:25In the past 24 hours, 23 people have bought it.
14:29But here's the thing, right?
14:30They don't just sell well on Etsy.
14:31They are also popular on Amazon, too.
14:33So, for example, this print-on-demand T-shirt here has had over 2,000 sales in the past month.
14:39And check out this T-shirt here, which features a picture of a cat eating a bowl of Japanese ramen.
14:45If you take a look, you can see it's had 3,000 sales this month.
14:48And check out this T-shirt here.
14:50Again, it's the same trend, a cat eating a bowl of noodles.
14:54And look, it has also had over 4,000 sales in the past month.
14:59Which, if you do the math, means that this one single T-shirt design has made anywhere from $79,000
15:05to over $99,000 in sales.
15:08Wow.
15:09That's on average anywhere from $2,500 to over $3,000 a day, which is just bonkers.
15:15And here's the thing, right?
15:16If you come up with the idea and concept for a design, NanoBanana is, in my experience, incredible at turning
15:23it into a reality for you.
15:24So, what I do is I use NanoBanana to help me create my images that I want to sell as
15:29product designs.
15:30And then I come to print-on-demand apps like Printify and Printful, which contain a huge range of blank
15:35products that you can customize and sell.
15:37So, I just pick a product that I want to sell, such as a T-shirt, and upload my design
15:41onto it.
15:41And then I list it for sale online for a markup price.
15:45And Printify and Printful have direct connections with all of the biggest marketplaces and e-commerce platforms, like Amazon, eBay,
15:51and my personal favorites, Shopify and Etsy.
15:53And then each time a customer buys a product from me, my print-on-demand app prints my design onto
15:59the product and ships it out to the customer.
16:01I pay the base wholesale product price, and I keep the rest as profit.
16:05And, by the way, if you'd like to learn about how I combine three AI tools together, Perplexity, ChatGPT, and
16:11Claude, to get free traffic and customers to my product listings, you can watch my video I uploaded last week
16:17about this.
16:17And if you want even more information, you can download a copy of my free print-on-demand e-book,
16:23The Six Steps to Six Figure Online Stores Follow, to make over $10,000 a month.
16:27In it, you will find my personal tricks and strategies that I use to come up with winning design ideas
16:34and also the AI tools and strategies that I use to create my designs and then to market them.
16:40So, if you would like to get a copy of my free e-book, you can find a link to
16:44download it in the video description below.
16:46And if you want even more info, I also have a video course called The Ecom Clubhouse, which includes in
16:52-depth video tutorials on the AI tools I use and my strategies to research, design, create, and advertise my print
16:59-on-demand products for a profit.
17:00So, if you're interested in seeing if my video course is right for you, I will also include a link
17:05to this in the description below.
17:07Plus, another way you can make money is by creating custom print-on-demand products for people, too.
17:12And these can be insanely popular on Etsy.
17:15For example, this custom t-shirt has had 259 sales in the past 24 hours.
17:21Wow.
17:22And so, with an average product price of $26, we can estimate that the sales for this shirt today are
17:27around $6,700.
17:30That is crazy.
17:31The flip side, though, of course, to this incredible demand for custom products is that when you compare them to
17:36the sorts of products that I make, these are definitely a lot more work.
17:40Because you have to create each design individually for each customer.
17:45That's why, I'll be honest, I personally prefer making one-off designs like this in my AI Etsy store.
17:51I just create one image, upload it onto a shirt, and that is it.
17:55It is set and forget.
17:57But, on the flip side, custom products have more sales potential.
18:01So, I don't think either one-off products or custom products are better than the other.
18:06They each just have their own pros and cons.
18:08Either way, Nano Banana is also amazing at creating custom products.
18:12So, for example, let's use another type of popular custom product, themed pet posters, such as turning your pet into
18:19a king or a queen.
18:21And, well, we can absolutely use Nano Banana to help us create something like this.
18:25The first thing we want to do is use it to create a reference image.
18:29You can ask it to create any style of image that you want.
18:32Then, when you've got the image you want, just download it.
18:35Then, at any time, you can create a new chat and upload this reference image along with the photos that
18:40your customer gives you and get it to customize the design with them.
18:44And so, as an example, I uploaded a photo of my dog, Starbuck, and check it out, Nano Banana swapped
18:51the heads for me in less than a minute.
18:53Plus, another way that you can make money with these is selling them as custom digital printable downloads so that
18:59people can print them themselves.
19:01For example, right now, custom anime portraits are popular.
19:04You can see six people have bought this in the past 24 hours.
19:08Plus, another popular style right now is Pixar-inspired images.
19:11So, for example, you take this listing here.
19:14You can see that in the past 24 hours that 25 people have bought this custom digital download.
19:20And, again, Nano Banana is great at taking photos and then customizing them for you.
19:25So, I uploaded a photo of myself, and I asked Nano Banana to turn it into a particular type of
19:30anime style, the cute chippy style.
19:33And it did it, no problem.
19:34And here's the thing, right?
19:36When it comes to AI products, the only limitation you really have now is your imagination.
19:42And so, rather than just trying to, say, copy the most popular listings like these, I think the key to
19:47success is to get creative and to try to come up with new design ideas for niches which other people
19:53are currently not targeting.
19:55That's exactly what this store here did.
19:57It's been open for less than a year, but it has already scaled massively and had over 8,800 sales.
20:03And it's all because they came up with their own unique niche custom AI pet portrait ideas, such as turning
20:09people's dogs and cats into hockey players, chefs, cowboys, and even astronauts.
20:14It is super cool.
20:16So then, if you'd like to learn more about how I am making money in my one-person AI business
20:21with Nano Banana, be sure to watch my next video here on screen.
20:24And I will see you in the next video.
