Don't listen to anyone telling you to make faceless youtube channels that are 100% automated using AI.
It doesnt matter if they show you tons of examples of "successful" youtubers or how much they earn each month...because what they're not disclosing will hurt you.
Definitely keep posting until the algorithm understands your niche and which audience to serve it to BUT also make sure your content is not considered "repetitive, mass-produced, lacking originality". If there are 100 videos out there similar to yours, pivot in how you present it.
This is how much cloning your voice can make you (other voice artists have made MUCH more) on Elevenlabs.
But it's not as simple or as easy as it was 2 years ago.
1. You need multiple hours of voice over recording to ensure you receive a high-quality badge.
2. Custom rate is now $0.03 per 1,000 characters for newly created professional voice clones. It used to be $0.2.
3. You will need to market/advertise your PVC to make substantial profit.
So yes, it's still possible to make passive income with your voice, but it's gotta be a VERY unique voice due to oversaturation AND Elevenlab's Voice Design tool that allows us to create any voice with 1 prompt.
@SkintDad Yes. Nurse to Entrepreneur. I started small; an online side hustle, freelancing... then leveraging AI tools for my business and self-led education. Until eventually, I matched my FT nursing job. Then I quit and went all in. Nursing remains as a casual/backup choice ๐
@samueljmcd I would say, learn a high paying skilled trade(s) to ensure availability of JOBS that can fuel your BUSINESS start up. Let your business be your interests and passions. Diversify your income so you dont become a dependent slave to just 1.
We tend to push certain realities out of our conscious awareness...trauma, abandonement, poverty, despair, dependency, mental illness... and overall the human capacity to deteriorate. Then, when those realities appear visibly on a street corner, we may respond with disgust or distance: That is them. That could never be me!
If you gave every human on Earth their own AI tutor, personalized to their learning style, available 24 hours a day in their native language, completely free, it would perhaps be the single greatest equalizer in the history of civilization.
The 1st time this year that I've taken 3 consecutive days off. Feeling blessed, but also experiencing lots of mental resistance to simply being present without bringing my laptop, opening a notebook, or finding something productive to do.
Apparently resting is a skill too.
My in-laws are visiting, so Iโm giving myself something Iโm usually terrible at giving myself: an actual Sunday offโฆ and a slower week.
Iโm learning that not every week has to be maximized and sometimes you have to actually enjoy the life youโve been working so hard to create.
I wish I had started using X earlier.
Didn't realize how efficient it was for finding the right people to collab with and hire for work.
Would have made my freelancing days 100x better.
@classic_dawn Yeah it sucks, but if it eases your frustration - even people from America and Asia are doing this, influenced by whoever their gurus are. But at least YOU can be a pioneer/leader in authentic automation coming out of the country ;)
