Episode Title: Automate Video Editing for Passive Income: A Six-Figure Blueprint with AI

Ready to stop trading hours for dollars and start earning while you sleep? Welcome back to the AI Paycheck podcast! In this episode, host Raje welcomes Nathan, a true video editing wizard who has leveraged artificial intelligence to scale his business to a six-figure success and build hands-off income streams.

Nathan shares his transformative journey, revealing how he went from working 80-hour weeks as a freelance editor to using AI tools that now automate 90% of his editing tasks. Discover his "aha moment" and how he realized that AI could enable truly passive income through monetizing templates, evergreen content, and affiliate partnerships. Learn to think of AI as your tireless intern, handling the grunt work so you can focus on scaling and strategy.

Get ready for a tactical deep dive into the top AI tools you need to know. Nathan pulls back the curtain on how Pictory.ai can instantly turn your blogs or podcasts into viral video shorts, how Descript’s “Overdub” lets you clone your voice to effortlessly fix script errors, and how Runway ML can remove green screens or generate stunning, surreal visuals from text prompts. He provides pro tips, like using Pictory for LinkedIn snippets to attract corporate clients or how Runway ML helped one client gain 10K subscribers quickly.

Beyond individual tools, Nathan lays out his seamless, automated workflows. Find out how integrating tools with platforms like Zapier can automate everything from video transcription and creation to auto-posting and sending invoices. Hear how using Airtable allows you to repurpose a single piece of content into multiple formats – like turning one wedding video into a TikTok ad, a blog post, and a photo booth reel, tripling revenue.

This episode is your masterclass in monetization. Nathan clearly outlines multiple paths to generate income: offering high-value “Done-For-You” AI workflow services (charging $500/month), selling Stock Content created by upcycling old footage with AI, building recurring revenue through Affiliate Marketing for the AI tools you recommend, and selling AI-edited templates on platforms like Gumroad for ongoing passive income. He even highlights lucrative niche markets, such as charging real estate agents $200 per video for AI-edited property tours.

Of course, scaling requires smart practices. Nathan shares essential advice on avoiding pitfalls like over-automation and stresses the importance of quality control through weekly audits using tools like VidIQ or TubeBuddy. Learn why diversifying platforms is key to protecting your income streams.

Finally, get a glimpse into the exciting future of AI video editing, from real-time collaboration to personalized content generation. Nathan’s final, actionable tip? Start small. Automate just one task this week, like auto-captioning, and begin your journey to earning bigger with AI.
