[00:01] using artificial intelligence? In today's video, we're going to do an awesome challenge. I'll be using one of the most popular AI tools for creating apps and websites, and I'll try to push myself to the limit, attract clients, and earn my first 500 Saudi Riyals. Everything will be real, and I'll show you all

[00:16] the steps I took to reach this goal. But you have to subscribe to the channel! If you want a second part, let me know in the comments below. The tool we'll be using in this video is Ripplet, one of the biggest companies and tools in the field of vBulletin, or app and website development

[00:29] using AI. You can use it to create websites, apps, and games. We've talked about it and tried it more than once on the channel, and many people asked us to do a challenge to try and make money with it. Finally, the day has come! According to my research, many people have managed to make millions

[00:44] using it. For example, this person built the initial version of his idea using Ripplet and received a $20 million investment. Of course, you can't take him as an example alone because many others failed, but we're going to do a small-scale experiment with this, and I want to see for myself if... We can't even get 20

[00:59] I want to see for myself if... We can't even get 20 million, we can only get 500 Saudi Riyals. Where are the 20 million? first day was for planning. I started planning the plan that will enable us to accomplish this challenge, God willing. We have to plan well because the time is very short and you don't have many options. Of course, the first thing we have to do is

[01:14] participate in the performance, and since this clip is sponsored by Rebelt, they gave me a free subscription, may God reward them. But we'll count it as part of the costs so that the experience is realistic for you. Its price is $20, which is about 75 Riyals a month. It gives you enough to create many websites and

[01:28] applications, and so on, and use the most powerful models they have. So, in the name of God, we're at -75 Riyals. Everyone has to start somewhere, of course, and this will be our first goal, God willing, to try to cover the basic cost of the project. So we have to earn 75 Riyals first,

[01:42] then we'll see how much more we can earn and whether we can reach 500 Riyals or not. Thank God, on the second day I earned 750 riyals, I sold my laptop (just kidding!). I opened Reblit and

[01:54] made a simple website for myself called The Queue. some of my work so that when I contact someone, I can send them the website and they can see it. This will obviously give me a much more professional look because, ultimately, in the challenge, we'll be dealing with real clients, so

[02:09] our presentation needs to be professional. Honestly, I really like the design. The backlog section is here; how do I present the projects? Then, here, put the workflow steps, or what you need to do to submit your idea so I can create it for you. Finally, put the form where you

[02:23] write your name and phone number so we can contact you, and of course, the type of project so we know what we'll do for you. Write your website idea, then sign up, and you can choose how much money you have, if you have a specific price in mind. But we have to keep it in riyals because it won't work in

[02:37] dollars. At the same time, we need to adjust the website to be in Arabic in the dark mode. Mod, oh nice, no, nice, nice. The colors are honestly good, so let me finish it and refine it, and then I'll show you the final version. So now our first weapon is ready, but there's a small problem. Honestly, I really don't know

[02:53] clients. Should I post on social media platforms like Twitter and look for work there, or should I approach shops and people who do n't have websites and present the idea to them? What's the fastest way to get work? We literally only have seven days. It's a bit confusing,

[03:08] and this is our first problem, but we'll probably do everything we can. So let's see what everything we can. So let's see what we do on the third day. The exams, so I couldn't do much, but the third day is the beginning of the launch. I updated my

[03:24] website and put my real work on it instead of the fake work that was there. All you can see on the channel, are there so I can send them to clients and have real work that we did with artificial intelligence. And so I started contacting clients. Of course, at first, I tried

[03:37] something I'd wanted to do for a long time. I went to Google Maps and started searching for shops and places that might need a website. Any business that might need to showcase its products and services, we could create a simple website for them. The first thing that came to mind was hotels. Of course, every hotel needs a website to display its rooms, services,

[03:52] contact information, location, what distinguishes it from others, and so on. This way, as a potential customer, you can see everything. And with the prices I offered, they would probably be very open to the idea, or at least that's what I expected. So I gathered some

[04:06] hotels and started contacting them one by one. I told them briefly that I was a web developer and explained the idea and why they needed a website. While I was searching, I found several hotels that already had websites and that I could create similar ones. I compiled these and sent them to the main email as examples

[04:20] so they could see what we could do and get examples of our idea. I waited and waited and waited, and get examples of our idea. I waited and waited and waited, but unfortunately, no one replied. He replied, and I said, "I can't end the day without finding a solution to get clients. I need to

[04:32] wake up tomorrow with clients already in place, or at least start with one." So I decided to talk to some people I know and those around me and present the idea to them, whether they're relatives, friends, or acquaintances—anyone who needs a website or knows someone who does. I sent you a message to someone who might be

[04:47] interested. Some of them replied, honestly, and directed me to other people, while others said they weren't interested or didn't need a website. But overall, it seems like this will take a long time, and I only have four days left, which has already become three with the waiting. So we need to find a solution to this tomorrow,

[05:01] waiting. So we need to find a solution to this tomorrow, or we'll mess up the challenge. [Music] one from the hotels or the people I contacted has replied. If you notice, this is the difficult part of the

[05:13] job. Usually, it's doing the work itself, if you understand it, that's not the hard part—it's easier to get work done. But getting the work in the first place—finding someone interested in paying you for the work—is the real challenge. No one will pay money for something worthless, you have to keep that in mind. But I think I haven't

[05:28] reached the right client yet. Anyway, I used my last resort, which was posting on social media platforms. As an individual, that should be your first solution because it's the ideal place to reach your desired clients. But I didn't want to use my accounts or my fame for this challenge.

[05:41] Oh, you famous person, you're making things worse! Seriously, I wanted to get as close as possible to your experience. I mean, someone who could watch the video and apply what I'm doing, not someone who'd use the excuse, "Oh, he's famous, no, I won't do that." I even thought about creating a new account and all that, but I felt

[05:55] I'd be straying a bit from the experience, so I decided to post on my existing accounts. But hey, let's not forget, we're down 75 riyals so far, and I don't think the challenge is going well. So, I tweeted as quickly as possible on my Twitter account that I have a challenge I need to finish within the next two hours, and that anyone who wants to create a

[06:10] website, I'll create one for them. 100 riyals only! That's it, I'm done with this. I've ruined the website price. 100 riyals only! Come on, let me do it for you. The most important thing is that I don't care. I posted the tweet, and within minutes, even though my Twitter account isn't that strong, I was shocked to get my first order! Wow, guys! My first client! My

[06:26] first client! We explained the idea to him, and he got his first real order and interested customer after four days of work and research. Honestly, the whole thing is amazing, and he feels so important. But let's not get carried away because we haven't won the customer yet. We need to convince him of our idea,

[06:41] talk to him, and find out more about it. He might just say no, or he might be lying, or he might just want me to talk to him because I'm a big shot and all that. I mean, the legend! But honestly, guys, I'm not joking. This is all real, and I'm not planning anything. This is all a real experience. So

[06:54] I explained why the price is cheap and that it's a challenge, and I really will make the website for him. I even found out if he wants a custom name or domain; I'll connect it for him and everything. And during the I was discussing things with him, back and forth, when another request arrived! The second client! Wow, that's exciting!

[07:10] Now we have two. One is already finalized, and the other is working on the agreement. Hopefully, more will come. I agreed with the first client that he would transfer the money the next day because he couldn't transfer it at the time. But the second client came, and after I understood what he wanted,

[07:22] I told him, "Okay, transfer it, I'll start working for you and you can reserve your spot." With so many requests, you need to reserve your spot; there are other people who want to work with you. No one was looking, and I'm happy to tell you, the transfer went through! The looking, and I'm happy to tell you, the transfer went through! The first 100 riyals from

[07:37] the challenge! Just a few seconds! The first 100 riyals from the challenge! The first customer transferred, and there are still more to come, but he wanted to reserve his spot. So, with the first transfer, we covered the expenses for the tool

[07:49] itself, which were about 75 riyals, and we started profiting from the second client. The first client said he'd transfer tomorrow, God willing, so that's the second client. Now we have two clients, and I'm happy for them. The place and tomorrow, God willing, we'll start working on the websites for them. But there are still people contacting me saying they want to

[08:04] do it because the price is a bit low. Honestly, it's almost price is a bit low. Honestly, it's almost impossible to make money from performance. I

[08:19] because I got actual requests that I can work on. That person who referred me before I went to sleep literally changed my mood completely. But before I start working, I wanted to check if more people had requested from us while I was asleep. Peace be upon you, brothers. I just woke up. Let's see the

[08:33] requests we have. Yesterday we had about three requests, these three. Two responded and one is still pending. So let's look at the requests. The most important thing is the requests. We have two. This one is old, from a week ago. It's good if we accept both of them. I think that way we'll be able to

[08:48] close the amount or the final goal. I started working on the websites that were requested from us directly, and the work on Replete is amazing. I remember back when this artificial intelligence started and how it could create websites for you. It was amazing. It was silly or primitive, but now it's literally on another level, and

[09:03] you can turn it into a real way to make money, like we're trying in this video. I made the first website for the person who transferred the money to us. It was a website for someone else, and thankfully, he liked it and said we'd continue working on it when he was free. So, officially, we finished the first website, and it was a personal website, and

[09:17] we earned 100 Saudi Riyals. Now, when we subtract the initial investment for our project, we're making a profit of 25 Riyals. Some of you might say that's not a large amount, but guys, this is the start of the project. We covered the initial investment and even made a profit on

[09:29] top of it, so I decided to celebrate and bought a cake for 25 Riyals. After that, I launched the second project and created it, but I felt that at this pace, I wouldn't be able to reach 500 Riyals. It's okay, I'm very satisfied because I was able to make money, but let's try a little harder since that's the

[09:44] goal. So, I posted on an Instagram account with the same idea, but thankfully, I following me on Instagram? What The benefit is that I put a lot of effort into it and I don't know what else. You should join our group there, we'll bring you ideas for videos,

[09:56] challenges and everything. Welcome, the link will be below in the description. I posted a simple story there, the same idea as on Twitter, and after I posted it I got so many requests, maybe more than that, and there were people I couldn't even reply to. But there's another small problem, unfortunately, not everyone who sent a message was serious about the

[10:11] matter. Maybe only two of them continued with me for a little while, while the rest said it was for money, no way, even though I literally wrote in the story 100 riyals, which is impossible, my brother, but it's okay, the difficulty of work, what can we do? The important thing is that I finished the website for the first client, if you remember him,

[10:24] and sent it to him, but he didn't reply. So we'll wait a bit until the end of the challenge and see what happens. After that, I continued contacting people on Instagram to confirm if anyone was interested. It's really tiring, and you'll probably get tired too, but if you want to make money, you have to put in some effort. And it wasn't just a little effort, it was a lot.

[10:38] There were many people I talked to and discussed things with, but in the end, it turned out they did n't want the website, and you wasted all your time. Yes, you'll encounter these things while working; it's perfectly normal. Out of boredom, I started making quick, fully functional pre-built websites. Pre-built websites are very simple, guys.

[10:52] type of product you want to create, and then you write down the website idea you want or that the client requested. As planning what he's going to do. Okay, as you can see now We finished the website, and you can immediately

[11:08] see its preview or how it works on the same site or in the same rebate. You can change everything with it, and that's it, literally. Someone replied to me on Instagram; I know him, and he decided to reserve his spot. I know him personally, so I'm sure he'll transfer the money to me, God willing. I'll record him as

[11:22] extra profit in this video because I'll be setting it up for him. I didn't say I'd be setting up the websites during the challenge period; the most important thing is that we close the deals. So, we have 125 riyals in profit, and God willing, if the first person we set up the website for transfers, we'll have 225. Okay, we have

[11:37] n't reached 500 yet, but God willing, there's one more day left in the challenge. Yes, there's one more day left in the challenge because I spent a whole day trying to reply to people and set up this person's website since I had exams. So, tomorrow will be our last day. On the seventh day,

[11:50] we reached the end of the challenge, and on the seventh day, I tried to get more clients, but honestly, I couldn't. It takes time. I finished everything I had, and that concludes the challenge. We spent 75 riyals on the Reblech subscription and, thank God, we earned 200 Saudi riyals. But, Ahmed, there's a

[12:05] third client, and the profit should be 300 riyals. Look, I created the website for him, so it counts as a yes, but he hasn't transferred the money. I don't know if I was robbed or what, God knows best. I don't know when he'll transfer it, so I decided not to count it. But if you want to count it, we earned 300 riyals out of our goal of 500 riyals, and

[12:21] I'm very satisfied, thank God. If you want to see more challenges like this and you liked them, write to us in the comments below. Finally, would I recommend this work? Yes, but it requires a lot of effort in promotion, not in creating the websites themselves, because the hardest part is reaching the client. Don't forget to

[12:34] try Reblech from the link below in the description, and we'll see you in the next video, God willing. and we'll see you in the next video, God willing. Goodbye. M.
