AI video tools promise you lightning speed. Create anything, fast, with just a prompt. And a lot of the time, you get in there and find out that’s simply not true. I’ve made $1,650 in three months creating AI film ads as a beginner, and hit 200 watch hours on YouTube in my very first month of publishing faceless videos. AND I’m still at the beginning and learning a lot every day. Here’s what I think actually makes the difference, because it’s not the tools. It’s what you bring to them. Here are 4 steps to get started, and step 4 is the one that actually changes everything. 1️⃣ Be intentional about who you learn from. This space moves fast and anyone can position themselves as an expert. Before you commit your time to someone’s method, do a little digging. Are they actually making things? Do they have real results? You don’t need to audit them, just a basic gut check goes a long way. (I think you can tell a lot from a sales or about page usually!) 2️⃣ One method for one outcome at a time. The biggest trap in this space is learning a little of everything, from everyone, all at once. It creates the feeling of progress without any real traction. Pick one specific outcome, YouTube content, AI short films, ads, and find one method for that. Follow it all the way through before you add anything else. 3️⃣ Practice it until it’s yours. Walking through a tutorial once isn’t learning it. You have to try it, fail at parts of it, try it again, test it, tweak it, and keep going until something shifts. That shift is when it stops being someone else’s method and starts becoming your process. 4️⃣ Build your own workflow. This is the real game changer! Everyone works differently. The way you think, the way you create, the pace you move at, that’s yours. No method you learn will be a perfect fit straight out of the box. The goal is to take what you learn, practice it enough that it becomes familiar, and then shape it into something that actually works for you. Your workflow is what makes this sustainable. It’s what makes you keep showing up and not having to start from 0 every time and figure it out while you’re creating.

How is AI changing your business & offers?

I’m currently subscribed to ChatGPT and using it as a tool in my business, but I’m wondering if I should cancel and move over to Claude instead. I’ve heard it can be better for thinking through ideas, which is mainly what I use AI for. 👉 Has anyone here switched between the two? Would love to hear what made you do it and how it’s going.

Greetings everyone I am so grateful for this community. My curiosity is, I see a lot of beautiful videos of shirt movies, story telling movies and the like. Please guide me on the best ones to use for say 3 to 10 minutes. Also how can I monetise AI? That’s another word I hear thrown around, please enlighten me. Many thanks

OpenAI shutting down Sora feels like another reminder that the AI space is moving fast, but not every shiny tool makes it into the long game. It also raises a good question for the rest of us: as AI tools come and go, what are we actually building into our stack for the long term? 📊 What are you replacing Sora with in your AI suite, or are you skipping video AI altogether for now?
