Introduction: A Transparent Journey from Scratch to Success
Just a short while ago, I had no idea what "text-to-video" meant or how to automate blog posts. All I knew was that I wanted to create content, share ideas, and maybe make some income doing something meaningful. When I discovered powerful AI tools like ChatGPT-4o, VideoGen.io, and Make.com, everything changed.
In this article, I'll walk you through my honest and practical experience—how I started from zero and managed to build a system that earns me income, even when I'm sleeping or binge-watching cat videos.
Step 1: Building a Blog Foundation with Automation
The first milestone was launching my blog: CreateVideoAI.tech. I used:
- ChatGPT-4o to write all blog content and optimize it for SEO
- Make.com to automate article scheduling, image generation, and social media distribution
- Blogger as my publishing platform
- HTML + CSS to integrate visual elements like CTA buttons, GIFs, and affiliate widgets
My blog now posts fresh content several times per week automatically. Each blog post is also a scriptable asset for video creation.
Step 2: Creating Videos in Minutes with AI Tools
Next came the videos. I needed a fast, scalable way to turn blog content into visual media—and VideoGen.io became my secret weapon.
Here's my step-by-step video creation process:
- I generate an article using ChatGPT-4o
- I convert it into a video using VideoGen (text, voice, visuals, music)
- I publish it on YouTube and Rumble
Each video takes less than 10 minutes to create—and thanks to VideoGen's Pro plan, I can make unlimited videos without burning out.
Step 3: Publishing Across Multiple Platforms
I chose both YouTube and Rumble for distribution:
- YouTube offers long-term visibility and SEO benefits
- Rumble is faster to monetize and has less competition
To level up, I invested in Matt Parr's Tube Mastery Program. It helped me:
- Choose the right video formats for my niche
- Craft engaging thumbnails, titles, and descriptions
- Understand the YouTube algorithm and posting frequency
I also used IFTTT and Make.com to auto-share my content to platforms like Twitter, Threads, Pinterest, and LinkedIn.
Step 4: The First Earnings—and the Power of Momentum
Surprisingly, my first affiliate sale came just 7 days after I launched my content system. It wasn't life-changing money at first, but it proved one thing: this works.
Since then, I've been earning daily income from:
- Affiliate commissions via blog and video links
- Rumble ad revenue
- Growing YouTube monetization
And the best part? Everything is now automated. I can take days off, and my blog still publishes content, my videos go live, and links are shared across social media—all without me lifting a finger.
What Made This Possible?
- AI Powerhouse – ChatGPT-4o and VideoGen.io
- Smart Automation – Make.com and IFTTT
- Strategic Education – Matt Parr's YouTube course
- Consistent Effort Upfront – I spent the first 7–10 days building the machine, and now it runs on autopilot
Advice for Beginners: How You Can Do the Same
If you're starting from scratch, here's what I recommend:
- Start with a blog – it's your content hub and your affiliate engine
- Use ChatGPT-4o to write quality, SEO-optimized content fast
- Automate posting with Make.com and distribute it using IFTTT
- Repurpose your blog content into videos with VideoGen.io
- Post to multiple platforms – especially YouTube and Rumble
- Invest in proper strategy with Matt Parr's course
- Track performance and tweak what works
You don't need to be an expert or have a big budget. You need a system, consistency, and the right tools.
Scaling Up: The Bigger Picture
Once your system is running, the next step is scaling:
- Build a newsletter and grow your list
- Create and sell your own digital products (courses, eBooks, GPTs)
- Build niche-specific content channels
- Cross-promote using Pinterest, Reddit, Medium, and more
Eventually, this turns from a side hustle into a fully automated content business.
Final Thoughts
Combining AI, automation, and your creativity is a game-changer. I've gone from uncertain and overwhelmed to building a growing content empire—without burning out or breaking the bank.
If I could do this in a few days, with no prior experience, so can you.
