How to Go From 0 to $5K With YouTube Automation [Part 4]
How to scale.
alright, final piece of the puzzle:
scaling and making real money
by now you've got the niche…
you know what goes viral…
and you can create videos with AI
now let's talk about actually making $5K, $10K, $20K+ per month
because that's the whole point of this, right?
so here's how you scale:
step 1: focus on ad revenue first
this is your foundation
ad revenue is predictable, scalable, and passive
you don't need to sell anything, negotiate with brands, or create any digital products (yet)
you just need to do one thing:
post consistently
your strategy should look something like this:
post 4-6 videos per week
get monetized (you need 1K subs + 4K watch hours)
keep posting so youtube keeps pushing your content
that's it
repeat that process over and over until you're consistently getting 100K-500K+ views per month
step 2: add digital products once you have momentum
once you're consistently posting and getting views, you can layer on additional revenue
for example if you’re running an educational channel (finance, health, self-improvement, etc.)
the easiest thing to add is digital products
why?
cuz youtube is already paying you to put other people's products in front of your audience (ads)
so why not show them YOUR products too?
plus with AI it's super easy to create these
one of my students matyas did exactly this
he was already making money from ad revenue
then he added a simple digital product
and made an extra $28K on top of his ad revenue
here's how he did it:
build trust first
keep posting helpful content consistently
the more value you provide upfront, the more your audience trusts you
and when people trust you, they buy from you
create a simple digital product
if you're making health content, create a simple ebook or guide about health
use AI + your knowledge
doesn't need to be complicated
just solve a specific problem your audience has
soft promote it in your videos
mention it twice per video:
once in the middle
once at the end
keep it natural, don't be pushy
if you do this consistently, you'll be making thousands on top of your ad revenue
other ways to scale:
once you've mastered ad revenue + digital products, you can also add:
affiliate marketing - promote other people's products and get a commission
but don't overcomplicate this
most people try to monetize in 10 different ways before they even hit $1K/month
focus on ad revenue first
get that to $5K/month
then add digital products
then layer on affiliates if you want
that's how channels scale from $5K to $10K to $50K+ per month
you now have the complete blueprint:
how to pick a niche
how to know what goes viral
how to create videos with AI
how to scale and make real money
if you actually implement this and stay consistent, there's no reason you can't hit $5K/month in the next 90 days

P.S. as a reminder, we're running a black friday discount through the 28th - $1K off + special bonuses
when you join, you get your own dedicated coach who guides you through everything
finding your niche, showing you which videos to make, helping you get the most out of your channel
tomorrow I'm sending the full breakdown with all the details
but heads up spots are almost gone
we've had way more people book calls than I expected and we're close to filling up
discount runs through the 28th but realistically it'll probably end before that once spots are filled
if not, no worries
but don't wait and then hit me up after spots are gone, asking if there's still room
there won't be
