AI Summary

This video reveals a little-known AI-powered business model: creating and selling small digital products (like templates, checklists, and AI prompts) for $9-$27 each. The creator, Jillian Leslie, explains how to use free traffic strategies like Pinterest and Facebook groups to drive sales without needing an audience or technical skills. She demonstrates how to generate product ideas and content using AI, then sell them through MiloTree, a platform that creates sales pages and handles delivery.

[00:00]
The overlooked AI business

Most AI side hustles (apps, faceless YouTube, dropshipping) require skills or are saturated. This business works with zero audience, followers, or tech skills, earning $2,000-$10,000/month.

[01:12]
Digital product stack concept

Instead of a $400 course, create small $9-$27 products like template packs, email scripts, or AI prompts. These are impulse buys that don't require trust.

[02:10]
Free traffic strategy: Pinterest

Pinterest is a search engine, not social media. Create pins in Canva linking to your sales page. Pins can drive sales for years. Start free, then scale with $2/day ads.

[03:11]
Free traffic strategy: Facebook groups

Join 3-5 groups where your audience hangs out. Answer questions helpfully, then mention your product. Use promo days to drive traffic without spamming.

[03:37]
Free traffic strategy: Bundle collaborations

Partner with other sellers in your niche to cross-promote products. This gives you instant access to their audience and helps you get first customers and email subscribers.

[04:05]
Creating a product with AI

Use a 'product stack prompt' to generate 10 product ideas that solve searchable problems. Then use AI to write the content (e.g., email templates). Drop into Canva to create a PDF in 45 minutes.

[06:26]
Selling with MiloTree

MiloTree creates an AI-generated sales page, handles delivery, and supports order bumps and upsells. No website needed. You get a link to share on Pinterest and other channels.

[07:33]
Scaling with a product stack

Create multiple products for the same audience (e.g., checklist, caption pack, template). Each gets its own Pinterest pin. Use bundles and upsells to increase average order value.

The easiest path to your first $1,000 online is to create small digital products using AI, drive free traffic via Pinterest and Facebook groups, and sell through a simple platform like MiloTree. This one-person business requires no audience, no tech skills, and minimal ongoing effort.

[00:00] AI side hustles, faceless YouTube channels, AI  apps, drop shipping. But there's a AI business   almost nobody mentions. And it works even  if you have zero audience, zero followers,  

[00:14] and zero tech skills. People are making  $2,000 to $10,000 a month completely   alone. Some started with no one to sell to.  Let me show you how. I'm Jillian Leslie. I've spent seven years helping creators build  online businesses. My husband and I founded  

[00:32] MiloTree. It's a platform that lets you sell  digital products without a website and without   complicated tech. I've watched thousands of  people try to make money online and most over  

[00:44] complicated. What I'm about to show you is the  exact opposite. Here's what nobody tells you. Building an AI app, you need coding skills.  Faceless YouTube, over saturated. AI art on Etsy,  

[00:57] the market crashed. Here's the bigger lie.  Build an audience first, then sell. Well,   you know what, if you could do that,  that's great, but that takes months, years,   and most people quit before making a dollar. So  this business flips that. You create the product

[01:12] first in an afternoon and then use  free traffic strategies that bring   buyers to you. No audience required. The  business is what I like to call a digital   product stack. Most people think  digital products mean a $400 course  

[01:29] that takes months to build. What's actually  working today? Small products, a $9 to $27. product, a template pack, email  scripts, a business planner,   AI prompts for a specific niche. At that  price, these are what I like to call impulse  

[01:46] buys. People don't need to trust you yet. They  search for a solution, they find your product,   and they buy it. Nobody asks who made  the wrench. They just need the wrench.

[01:58] So one product might make $200 a month, but if you  have 10 different products for the same audience,   that's $2,000 to $5,000 a month, and you can  create each one in an afternoon. Okay, this is the  

[02:10] part though everyone skips. So you've made your  product, and now how do people find it? here are   three free strategies. The first one, Pinterest.  Pinterest is the most underrated traffic.

[02:23] Source, we made $500 from a single pin  promoting party printables and here's   why it works. Pinterest isn't social media,  it's a search engine. People type real estate   email templates or wedding planning checklists.  Those are digital products. So you make a pin in  

[02:40] Canva that takes say 10 minutes, you're gonna  link that pin to your sales page and I'm gonna   talk about your MiloTree sales page and why  that's so effective. Then when people search, Your pin shows up. I have pins from two years  ago that still drive sales. So once it's working,  

[02:58] you see it working, you can spend $2 a day  on ads to scale, but start free. The next way   to get traffic is to find Facebook groups. So  find three to five groups where your audience  

[03:11] hangs out. So for real estate agents, it might be  new real estate agents or women in real estate. Now do not drop your sales page link and run  because that'll get you banned. So be careful.  

[03:23] But you want to answer questions. You want to  be helpful. When someone asks how to follow   up with clients, you answer it. And then  you mention that you have a template pack.   Some groups even have promo days. So one good  post could drive 50 people to your page. Now,  

[03:37] third way to get people to find your  product is to find three or four other sellers in your niche selling  digital products. So you do a bundle   sale together. You bring your products,  they bring theirs, you cross promote,  

[03:52] you get instant access to their audience. And this  is how you end up getting your first customers,   your first hundred email subscribers. So  remember, you need to be where people are  

[04:05] already searching. Let me show you  how fast you can create a product. I asked ChatGPT to find me product ideas. And I'm  using something I call my product stack prompt.  

[04:17] It tells AI exactly what to look for products  people are already searching for on Pinterest and   Google. So you can grab it for free. The link is  in the description and let me walk you through it.

[04:29] Here it is. Generate 10 small digital  product ideas for, you're gonna add your   niche, priced between nine and $27. Focus on  templates and scripts, guides and checklists   that solve specific problems people actively  search for on Pinterest and Google. For each  

[04:47] product idea, include one, the product name, two,  the specific problem it solves, three, primary... that make people buy. You're going to  prioritize make money and save money.

[05:04] and higher prices. Now the other options,  these are the other triggers. Save time,   raise social status. Number four, why  someone would buy this right now versus

[05:18] figuring it out themselves. And five, a  one sentence marketing hook. Keep in mind,   these products need to target searchable problems,  things people are already looking for solutions  

[05:31] to, not ideas they need to be convinced they  need. Okay, see that last line? I'm telling   AI to think about searchability from the start.  Traffic strategy is baked right into the product.

[05:45] Now the next step, I have AI write the actual  content for my product. So here's the next prompt,   write 15 professional client follow-up email  templates for new real estate agents. So  

[05:58] include the initial meeting follow-up, after  showing a property, after an open house,   adjust checking in sequence, and a referral  request. Make them warm, but professional.   Now you're going to take the results. You're  going to drop this into an easy Canva template.

[06:14] And within 45 minutes, you've got a $17 product  that you can sell forever. And I'm going to show   you how to set this up in MiloTree because this  is truly the easiest platform to use. Here I am  

[06:26] in my MiloTree dashboard. I'm going to  click on this button that says digital   download. I'm going to give it a product  name, a price, a short description. I'm   going to upload my PDF file right here because  MiloTree is going to automatically deliver it

[06:42] to my customer. Now here is the best  part. I click this button and I have   an AI generated sales page. I can swap  in images, I can tweak texts and colors,  

[06:54] but I could have an entire sales page  ready to go optimized for selling in 10   minutes. So no website needed to use  MiloTree because I then get a link

[07:06] to my sales page that I can share  everywhere and I promise you no   tech headaches. So you're gonna make a  Pinterest pin for your product. You're   gonna link your Pinterest pin to your  MiloTree sales page. You're gonna then  

[07:21] click publish on Pinterest and you are done.  Here's what becomes a real business. That   email template pack is for new real estate  agents. That same afternoon or the next day.

[07:33] Create more products. You could  create first 90 day checklist for   $9, a social media caption pack for $12,  an open house planning template for $9,  

[07:45] a client onboarding packet, $17. Now each  one gets a separate Pinterest pin. You've   got five products showing up in five  different searches. And with MiloTree,   you can bundle your products together so you can  sell them separately or together. You can add

[08:01] order bumps on the checkout page. These are  usually small, complimentary products that   people can tick a box and purchase. You  can add upsells after someone purchases.  

[08:14] Also with the tick of a box, these are usually  more expensive products. So someone buys the   $17 email template. MiloTree offers  them the caption pack for $12 more.

[08:27] That $17 customer now becomes  a $29 customer with one click. That's the stack. That's a real business. This  is how you start creating a customer journey.  

[08:40] This is your first sales funnel.  So here's the plan. One weekend,   use AI to create those five digital  products. Make a Pinterest pin for   each one. Hang out in a few Facebook groups.  Try a bundle collab. This way you're not...

[08:57] filming videos all the time. You're not showing  up on Instagram every day. No managing clients,   no inventory. People find your products and  they buy. You wake up to sales notifications.   That's the one-person, AI business, nobody  is talking about. it is the easiest path to  

[09:15] your first thousand dollars online. So  grab the product stack AI prompt below. sign up for my MiloTree. It's simpler  and cheaper than Kajabi, Teachable,  

[09:30] all of them. It's built for people  who want to move fast. Start free,   no credit card. The link is in the description  below. And in my next video, I'm sharing the top   five digital products people are selling in  2026 and having success. I'll see you there.
