Last weekend I built a landing page, a 60-second promo video, and sold €2,400 worth of digital products — all using AI.

No freelancers. No fancy setup. Just a laptop, Wi-Fi, and seven tools.


This post isn’t theory. It’s a full breakdown of the workflow so you can copy it step-by-step and launch your own AI-powered side hustle this weekend.


Why this post matters


We’re in a new era.

AI isn’t just for coders or big tech companies anymore.

Anyone can now use AI to create, design, market, and sell products without hiring a team.


But the problem is — most people drown in tools, prompts, and hype.

They don’t know how to combine them into something that actually makes money.


That’s what this post fixes.

You’ll see exactly how I connected 7 tools into one smooth workflow that earns real income — not just likes.


The 7-Tool Stack That Did Everything


Here’s the exact setup I used (and you can replace any with alternatives you like):


1. Perplexity.ai – to research trending topics and gather real-time data.

2. ChatGPT (GPT-5) – to outline, write, and edit all content.

3. Uizard.io – to design the landing page visually using AI.

4. Runway ML – to generate a professional 60-second promo video.

5. Zapier + AI Actions – to automate repetitive tasks like publishing and emails.

6. Ahrefs + Google Search Console – to optimize SEO and track visitors.

7. Super.so + Notion – to publish the page fast without coding.

      

      Total time: 6 hours

      Total cost: under €15

      Revenue: €2,400 in preorders


Step 1: Start with a micro-problem


Every viral AI hustle starts with one thing: solving a small, specific pain.


I didn’t try to build a “startup.”

Instead, I asked myself:


“What problem can I solve this weekend that people will actually pay for?”


I noticed creators online saying:


“I can’t afford a designer.”

“I wish someone could make me a landing page fast.”


So I made that my goal:

Build a ready-to-use AI-generated landing page template for creators.


That became my weekend product.


Step 2: Let AI do the research and writing


I opened Perplexity.ai and searched:


“Top problems faced by small creators and solopreneurs in 2025.”


It gave me data-backed answers instantly.


Then I went to ChatGPT (GPT-5) and said:


“Write high-converting landing page copy for a digital product that helps creators build pages automatically with AI.”


It delivered perfect copy in under 60 seconds — problem, benefits, call-to-action, everything.


This text became the base for the landing page.



Step 3: Turn text into design automatically


Next, I pasted that copy into Uizard.io — and in seconds, it turned into a fully designed web page.

Colors, layout, buttons, all auto-generated by AI.


I adjusted a few visuals, exported the page, and uploaded it to Super.so (which connects to Notion).

I plugged in my Stripe payment link — and the page was live.


At this point, I had a professional sales page made entirely by AI, and it looked like I paid a designer €500.



Step 4: Make a 60-second promo video


Videos are what make posts go viral in 2025.

So I opened Runway ML and used this simple script:


“What if you could build and sell a product page in one weekend — using only AI?

I just did it, and made €2,400 in pre-orders.

No team, no freelancers — just 7 AI tools.

Here’s the full step-by-step workflow at AIHustle.cc 🔥”


I generated visuals of screens, products, and text animation.

In under an hour, I had a professional short video ready to post on TikTok, LinkedIn, and X.



Step 5: Automate everything


To make it hands-off, I connected Zapier with AI Actions.

When someone visited the page → Zapier sent them a thank-you email.

When someone paid → it auto-sent a Notion file with my template.

When I published updates → it auto-posted to social media.


This is what makes the AI hustle scalable — you do the setup once, and it runs itself.



Step 6: Distribute like a creator, not a marketer


Most people build something cool and stop there.

The real money happens when you share it the right way.


Here’s exactly how I launched it:


X (Twitter):

I posted a thread:


“I built a landing page and video using 7 AI tools — in one weekend — and made €2,400. Here’s the exact process 🧵”


It went semi-viral within 24 hours.


LinkedIn:

I turned the story into a long, honest post with screenshots.

That reached 20,000+ views and brought traffic.


TikTok / Instagram Reels:

I uploaded the 60-second video natively (never just a link).

Short video boosted the post more than text ever could.


Reddit:

I posted in r/EntrepreneurRideAlong:


“I built a full product in a weekend using AI — here’s how.”

Then added the blog link later in the comments.


Email:

Subject line: “Built this in a weekend (no freelancers)”

Result: 54% open rate, 260 new subscribers.




Step 7: Track your results


The next few days I monitored analytics using Ahrefs and Search Console:

12,000+ pageviews

260 subscribers

€2,400 in preorders

Dozens of backlinks from reposts


That’s how one weekend experiment turned into a small AI-powered business.




The Free Prompt Pack (Copy These)


If you want to replicate this workflow, here are the exact prompts I used:


1. Product idea finder


“List 10 small creator problems in 2025 that people would pay to solve with AI tools.”


2. Landing page copy


“Write persuasive sales copy for a landing page that sells [YOUR PRODUCT]. Include pain, solution, and CTA.”


3. Video script


“Write a 60-second TikTok-style video script with a hook, curiosity, and call-to-action for [PRODUCT].”


4. X (Twitter) thread


“Write a 6-tweet thread summarizing my experience building [PRODUCT] with AI. Make it authentic and valuable.”


5. LinkedIn version


“Turn this case study into a conversational LinkedIn post with insights and data.”


6. Email teaser


“Write an email that promotes this story in 3 short paragraphs, using curiosity to drive clicks.”


Use these as your base, and adapt them to your own project.



Key takeaways

Specific numbers make your story believable.

Native videos triple engagement.

Automation lets you scale fast.

Authentic storytelling beats polished marketing every time.

AI isn’t replacing people — it’s replacing waiting, hiring, and overthinking.


Anyone reading this can do the same.

All it takes is focus, clear goals, and a weekend.
