Let’s be honest, everyone knows that the AI industry is growing exponentially.

We all can see tons of AI tools being released every day, the insane development going on in the field of AI, and the massive investments that are flowing from Nvidia to OpenAI.

And most of us know that each AI tool can be used for multiple use cases, like ChatGPT, Claude, and more.

But in contrast, I see that most people have no idea about how to use AI tools in their everyday work.

And that’s the reason — I’ve started my AI newsletter “AI Made Simple,” and it’s free to subscribe.

Yes, it’s mainly a side hustle for me.

Why this AI newsletter

If you follow me, you may know I’ve been writing about AI on Medium for over 1.5 years now.

And I’ve seen people wanting to know how they can use AI to their benefit.

The truth is, AI has massive potential to change how we work, earn, and even live our lives. Many people are even worried that AI could take their jobs so they want to learn AI.

But if you’re not in tech or already knee-deep in this world, AI might seem like a buzzword.

Sure, I’ve seen countless newsletters pop up, promising to “keep you updated on AI.” Great, but 95% of those just regurgitate headlines and trends.

They tell you what’s happening but never get into the real questions:

  • How can I use AI to make my job easier?
  • How can I use AI to make money?
  • How do I apply AI in ways that actually work for me, without a Ph.D. in machine learning?

And that’s why most people are clueless, and tech guys are making money from it. They have the tools, the know-how, and the budgets.

They don’t need another hyped newsletter. But regular people need a guide on how to use AI tools.

What you’ll actually learn from my AI newsletter

First of all, my AI newsletter isn’t about trending AI news.

Sorry.

There are multiple websites and newsletters out there that will give you news faster than you can expect.

And I don’t want to compete with them.

My AI newsletter is all about simple, detailed posts where I show you how to use AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and other lesser-known tools to solve real problems.

I’ll explain what these tools do and how they can make your life easier, help you get more done, and open up ways to make money.

No jargon, just simple & straight-up, easy-to-follow actions.

For instance, recently, I tried Raena AI (one of the best AI tools to boost your learning) and wrote a post about it.

The goal? Get past the daily AI buzz and show regular people how to actually use AI tools in helpful ways.

Why this will work (and why it’ll make $100k)

I didn’t just wake up one day and decide to teach people about AI.

I’ve been writing about AI on Medium for over a year.

I know people are craving such info. I got thousands of comments asking for more posts like this.

And that’s why I think my AI newsletter will work.

Also, I realized that people are willing to pay for it.

Sure, my subscription is free for everyone — because I want to reach a huge audience of real, engaged readers.

But I’ve seen that most of my audience subscribes and pays at least $1 to $5 every month because they see insane value in it.

I’ve also added different pricing options so readers can easily choose the plan they want.

With this simple approach, within a month, I’ve made close to $1,000 just from subscriptions.

And I believe that, with time, more and more people will subscribe to my newsletter, and I will earn way more.

That’s all for now.

Hope you like it.
