15:17[00:02] highest earners won't be programmers, marketers, or even salespeople. The people at the top will be professional AI power users—those
[00:14] who understood the new game before it became mainstream and capitalized on it before the market saturated. In this video, I'll tell you about nine AI skills you can start learning today, even if you're just starting from scratch. Each skill has the potential to generate
[00:30] real money, and the income increases with each one. The last skill is the most profitable. This isn't just a tutorial video about Charge BT; it's a blueprint for mastering AI in business and life. Let's begin. The first skill is Prompt Engineer, which
[00:46] means engineering AI instruction sets. The expected income here is $50 to $100 per hour. Working with AI systems now has the same value that learning programming did in the early 2000s. People today do n't People are looking for someone who knows how to write code, but what they really need is someone who
[01:01] knows how to communicate with AI, who knows what to tell it to extract valuable insights. For example, if someone tells AI to create a marketing plan, that's like asking a question on an Arabic exam. The AI will give a generic, unhelpful response because you haven't provided anything specific,
[01:17] so it will get nothing back. Personally, in all my companies, I have strict rules for AI usage. Everyone who works with me must know how to write professional prompts. That's why I'm going to share with you now the structure I use internally in each of my companies, which must be applied exactly as described. The
[01:33] first step is defining the role. The first thing you must tell the AI is to act as if you are [someone else] or [someone else]. Tell it you are a marketer, a lawyer, a financial analyst, or an HR expert. For example, today I was
[01:48] reviewing a legal contract, so in the prompt I wrote to act as if I were a lawyer specializing in commercial contracts. Why? Because you need to define the angle from which the AI will view the problem. The angle from which he will approach his request is that he won't invent anything. The second step is to provide the data. The more examples you give, the more accurate and
[02:03] second step is to provide the data. The more examples you give, the more accurate and example, to copy an advertisement, I give him a successful copy from before and ask him to analyze the
[02:15] previous data as a model. This way, he will get a result similar to the previous one, and I can be sure that I have obtained a result that will actually succeed. The third step is to explain what is required clearly. third step is to explain what is required clearly. Most people are very vague in their requests; they are not
[02:30] clear or specific. So, you can't just tell him to solve the market problem. The market is very broad—which market, which country, which category? You must specify exactly what you want a report about. If you are asking him for something like market analysis, for example, do you want a SWOT analysis, a comparison between you and the competitors, or what
[02:46] exactly? The more specific you are, the more brilliant the EA will be in responding. The fourth step is to define the final form of what you want, which is your request. The format you want the output or result to be from the AI is crucial. Simply put, I can't tell it to
[03:01] do something without specifying the desired output format. For example, do I want the result in an Excel spreadsheet, a PDF, an image, points, a comparison table, and so on? Once, I asked it to compare three AI design tools, and I forgot to specify a
[03:16] table format. It returned a very long document, so I had to start over to get the second skill is AI-assisted software development. The
[03:31] 100 to $200 per hour. Most people aren't aware of this fact today. Almost anyone can build a custom program or small application, even without any programming background. Yes, really! How? Simply because tools like Crozier and WriteTool allow you to interact with the AI,
[03:48] and it writes the code. The heavyweight in your place means you come up with the crazy idea and artificial intelligence (AI) will create the application for you. Personally, in my companies, I've had mobile programmers use these tools in their work to achieve much better and faster results, and this has truly yielded amazing and very rapid results. The
[04:04] first step to mastering this is to use AI to teach you how to use it. I know it sounds strange, but just go to the GPT chat and write, "I want you to explain to me step by step how to build an application using AI or
[04:19] using a specific tool like Cruz." It will start giving you a detailed explanation for beginners on how to do something like this. It will give you everything from logging in to the website, setting up the tools, writing the prompts, running the application, and testing it. This is in addition to watching YouTube videos
[04:34] and tutorials for any tool, as well as paid courses. The second step is to find a real problem. The best way to start is to talk to small business owners, talk to small business owners, consultants, or even marketers. Ask them what the most common
[04:48] problem customers ask for a solution to is. This will allow you to develop a real idea for software that the market actually needs. Take their problem, and now you have the tools and knowledge to build a solution—a software application that solves that problem. The advantage here is that once you build the application,
[05:04] you can sell it repeatedly to many people who have the same problem, and your software can solve it efficiently. The goal here is to build an initial version of the application idea using artificial intelligence tools. After that, if the idea proves successful, you can then hire experienced programmers.
[05:20] the idea proves successful, you can then hire experienced programmers. will use it more effectively and produce better results. The third step is to actually build the solution. Don't stay in this learning phase forever. Some people just watch videos, listen to
[05:35] podcasts, read books, and take courses, and they never take any action. I call this type of learning "shelf-help" instead of... Self-help, you know the shelf, the desk shelf, that's what it means. You put your education on the shelf. If you want to be successful, apply, try, build prototypes. The ones who really win are the
[05:50] people who implement solutions and apply them in the real world, not those who just learn them for the sake of learning . Well, if you are an artist and designer who thinks in a more creative way than a programming way, don't be afraid, artificial intelligence is not a danger to your field at all, on the contrary, it is the biggest opportunity for you. The
[06:06] third skill is AI design or AI design. The expected income here is from $100 to $200 per hour. Honestly, what's happening in the field of design is becoming magical. I remember just six months ago we were asking artificial intelligence for a picture and it would give you one with six fingers or one with three eyes.
[06:21] Images are now so realistic they can fool the human eye. The key isn't your artistic skill; it's your ideas. It's not about being a graphic designer anymore; it's about knowing how to
[06:33] give AI intelligent instructions to unleash creativity. Let me explain further: companies always need graphic designers and video editors to create content and advertisements—the creative tools they use to market their products or services. Now, these tasks are done with
[06:49] AI, producing impressive, fast, and inexpensive results. You can easily learn to use these tools in days, or even hours. And if you're already a graphic designer, video editor, or creative, these tools won't take away your work; on the contrary, they're
[07:05] there to help you. All you need to do is be flexible and start using them to their fullest potential to accomplish your work, instead of relying on old methods and programs. Learn to use tools like Learn to use tools like FreeBeak for creating images and tools like Vue3
[07:20] or KillingAI for creating videos. And the tool, like Soda Marketing AI, is distinguished by features specifically designed for this purpose: creating content and ads for businesses in general. This is achieved through unique and very powerful features, such as the AI Product Model feature, which
[07:36] AI Product Model feature, which allows you to upload images of any product and click on "Train AI Model." This way, the AI in Soda Marketing AI trains on and learns about the product. Afterward, you can generate amazing images, videos, and ads for the product very quickly, impressively, cheaply, and
[07:50] easily. You can also create designs for social media posts and ads, similar to the designs created by graphic designers, and you can do this in minutes without needing any other programs like Photoshop or Canva. The
[08:04] fifth skill is writing using artificial intelligence (AI Writer or Copy Writer). The expected income here is $100 to $200 per hour. If there is one skill that is considered the most important in the business world today, it is not writing words, but communicating ideas. For example, a
[08:20] writing team... I have an AI system that transforms recordings of my meetings—whether training sessions, consultations, or even casual chats—into stories, lessons, and quotes. All of this is then turned into articles, email newsletters, or even video scripts. The point isn't that the
[08:35] AI writes for me; the idea is that it extracts the treasures within the content I've shared and uses them intelligently to reach people effectively, naturally, and not robotically. These are all the skills a modern content writer or creator needs to master to work with AI
[08:51] effectively, earn high salaries, and complete projects quickly. Number one is the ability to extract information. This is the first and most important skill. Take a long video or podcast, transcribe it, and let the AI extract the main ideas, stories, lessons, highlights, and
[09:08] key points. You can then cut these and use them as content in various forms: social media posts, videos, advertisements, and so on. Number two is the ability to generate ideas or edit content. This is where you start creating the best content. Work well and feed it to the
[09:25] AI, letting it generate new ideas based on this successful content. For example, you could ask it to find 15 new ideas that have the same impact as this article, and then provide it with a truly successful article. This way, you ensure that every idea is built on a strong foundation, with a high probability of becoming a huge success. The
[09:42] third stage is writing creation, and this is where the real magic lies. You take your client's style, tone of voice, and the content they are truly proud of, and feed this into the AI. From there, it starts generating customized versions that feel as if the client wrote them themselves. This way, you'll be giving your client,
[09:59] who requested your content writing services, incredibly powerful content that you created very easily. For the client, the content feels as if they created it themselves because it's written in the same style they use,
[10:11] specifically their successful style. But wait, if your idea of AI is simply that it writes, then you have n't seen the next skill yet. Skill number seven is AI content creation, and here the expected income is between $200 and $300 per piece. You've probably seen
[10:27] many AI trends, like the current one with monkeys flooding social media, and many other AI-generated content trends. These things are literally taking over the world, and consequently, they're in high demand. Anyone skilled in
[10:41] AI content creation will be in great demand these days and in the future. There are many sub-topics to this topic because this skill requires mastery of several areas. First, there's the Prompt Engineer, which we discussed earlier, as it
[10:57] allows you to use AI to generate amazing content ideas and powerful scripts for your videos. Second, there's AI-powered image and design, which we also talked about earlier, as it's an integral part of any content – visuals. Third, there's
[11:14] AI-powered video production, which we also discussed earlier. So, you need to have all three skills. These skills combine to become a
[11:27] can create with AI are: Number one, advertising content in video or image format, as we discussed in skill number three; Number two, creating content using human-talking avatars (a specific character, which could be a digital version of a real person or a
[11:43] completely fictional character, all created by AI, but this character speaks and creates AI, but this character speaks and creates very powerful and engaging videos and content); Number three, creating video content consisting of scenes with voiceovers (scenes
[11:58] generated entirely by AI, along with AI-generated voiceovers and strange videos we see all the time on social media, such as
[12:13] mini-videos, videos that create imaginative or breathtaking scenery, or powerful science fiction content, and so on. By the way, this is something from The Founder AI training program explains in detail, step by step, how to create highly
[12:29] by step, how to create highly engaging content that generates significant views and interaction using AI. It also teaches you how to transform this content into a profitable digital business. This comprehensive training program is specifically designed to help people who want to start an
[12:44] online business and generate income professionally and easily using artificial intelligence. You'll learn clear, step-by-step instructions on how to build your digital project from scratch until it's operational and profitable, God willing. You'll also learn how to

Check out The Foundry AI course; it
[13:35] will greatly help you on your journey. You'll find the link in the video description. Skill number 8: Automation video description. Skill number 8: Automation using artificial intelligence (No Code AI Automation). The expected income here is $300 to $400 per hour. One day, we had a
[13:47] $400 per hour. One day, we had a Each task required 15 steps and involved more
[13:59] than four people. We brought in an AI automation expert who streamlined all those steps into just one for us, and the rest of the AI work was handled by the AI team. Imagine the time and money we were able to save! That's why people who understand AI automation command high salaries; they literally
[14:14] increase productivity tenfold. This is a very important philosophy. We no longer pay based on the number of hours worked; we pay based on the results our work delivers. And of course, one of the things that our work delivers. And of course, one of the things that produces amazing results in any business is
[14:28] automation. To succeed in the AI automation field, you must focus on AI automation services that will do one of the things I'm about to tell you: either significantly increase sales, drastically reduce costs, or save the company a huge amount of time. For example, automation of
[14:45] sales follow-ups, automation of invoicing, automated customer management, or automated customer service using artificial intelligence. Today, those who understand tools like Noonzim.com or N8N and use them to build
[15:01] flexible systems that connect all parts of the business and work with AI automation are paid in dollars and earn a lot of money because they save companies thousands a month. The skill level is data analysis using AI (AI Data Analysis).
[15:17] Expected income here It's between $300 and $400 per hour. A company like Amazon, for example, makes every decision, every modification to a product, service, or feature on the website or application, every test. All of this is based on very accurate data analysis, never on
[15:34] personal opinions. With the spread of artificial intelligence tools that can analyze data professionally and with impressive capabilities, businesses are now stopping relying on a person who analyzes data, or the person who used to
[15:46] analyze data, and are using artificial intelligence. So how can you benefit and enter this field and earn thousands of dollars from it? Let me tell you about three real ways you can start and solve the problems of many people or companies, and consequently earn a lot of money from
[16:02] these services. Number one is data cleanup services. Most companies have a huge problem: their data is a mess. Everything is scattered across Google Sheets, or their CRM system isn't integrated, or they have different files on employees' devices. Because of this, their decisions are always
[16:18] weak; they can't analyze or see the big picture. Here, you use artificial intelligence tools to build a data warehouse, meaning you gather all this jumbled data into warehouse, meaning you gather all this jumbled data into one organized place. The data becomes clean and organized, and
[16:34] therefore, the different departments in any company can make smart decisions based on it. Number two is data enrichment. I've seen this firsthand: companies have thousands of email addresses for leads, but they don't know anything about them—no name, location, income, or type of business. Because of this, they
[16:51] can't effectively market these leads. Here we're talking about sales leads, of course, but your turn might come when you go in and tell them, "I'll use AI tools to add information to this data. I'll get you the phone number, city, business, and purchasing power of
[17:07] these customers." They'll think you're a magician, but in reality, you'll be using or mastering AI tools like 6Sense or FullStory, which perform this task perfectly and excellently. At that point, many companies will pay you a lot of money to provide this service, especially if
[17:23] these companies have large datasets or sell expensive services or products. In that case, the value of the lead to them will be very high. Third, extracting insights and analytics: Data Insights. This is the stage where the money is high. Here, you don't just clean and organize the data or add to it; you
[17:40] extract real insights that change the company's strategy. For example, a company that sells a certain product can significantly improve the performance of its paid advertising. This company uses artificial intelligence to analyze customer data and identify
[17:56] similar customers they can target. For example, a company might be concentrated in a specific region, and through this technology, they can discover another region where they can offer the same product or service
[18:08] and where there's a huge demand. A simple thing like this can multiply a company's profits many times over, and consequently, the person providing this service will earn a lot of money from these companies. These were the top nine AI skills that will generate the most money in 2025.
