Mark Tilbury pitches AI-built Shopify stores and automated fulfillment as an easy path to a $10,000-a-month side hustle. That figure treats revenue as profit and assumes a 1% conversion rate roughly 5-10x higher than typical cold-traffic benchmarks.
channel: jordan-welch
Jordan Welch says a 17-year-old used Claude AI, Shopify, and Facebook ads to turn under $100 into $102,000 in sales in 90 days. That figure is gross sales, not profit, and the margins, ad spend, and starting capital that made it possible go unstated.
channel: meg-heckman
Meg Heckman says a repetitive five-step loop of design testing, paid ads, and email campaigns generated $861,000 in 30 days across two print-on-demand brands. Her 15-16% margins don't specify if ad spend is included, and the capital needed to survive the unprofitable testing phase goes unstated.
channel: tim-richard
Tim Richard says eight e-commerce brands — including a $600K/month pillow business and a $100M waterproof shoe brand — were built on low-competition keyword targeting. His revenue figures are largely unsourced estimates, and the capital and SEO timeline the strategy requires go unaddressed.
channel: codie-sanchez
Codie Sanchez builds an AI-powered dog-leash store in 24 hours, replacing weeks of work and $3,000+ in dev costs with mostly-free tools. But she never accounts for customer acquisition cost, or the million-subscriber audience quietly supplying her traffic.
channel: richard-yu
Richard Yu says he made $32.7 million selling other people's digital products via AI-built affiliate storefronts and faceless AI videos. The process is well known, but the income math is hypothetical and he never addresses Instagram's suppression of AI link-farming content.
channel: fayefilms
fayefilms pitches five student income streams — freelancing, print-on-demand, tutoring, note-selling, and YouTube — as "non-scammy" alternatives. The $10,000/month headline is never substantiated, and the Etsy math ignores costs entirely.
channel: wendy-nolan
Wendy Nolan's master resell rights pitch promising 100% profit on an $800 digital marketing course, backed by a $123,000-in-80-days income claim. What's missing is how a newcomer actually gets people to see the funnel.
channel: apprentice-diary
A first-year Amazon FBA seller reaches $200K in revenue while working full-time and caring for a newborn. The gross numbers are real. The net profit, the credit prerequisites, and the 3 AM work sessions deserve more attention than they get.
channel: wholesale-ted
Five AI-enabled business models — from children's books to affiliate sites — are pitched as overlooked opportunities. The math behind the headline revenue example puts the author in the top 0.1% of self-publishers, and the video itself guarantees these "ignored" niches won't stay that way.
channel: hannah-gardner
Hannah Gardner demonstrates building high-priced Etsy digital downloads using Claude's spreadsheet generation. The AI demo is real. The mandatory $39-99/month tool subscription and the prompt-engineering skill gap are not part of the pitch.
