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