The speaker emphasizes the need for hands-on work in AI, like building systems and prompt engineering, and cautions against following "AI gurus" who primarily sell courses. He also differentiates between inbound and outbound marketing, highlighting the challenges of passive income for beginners without an existing audience.

and obviously there's a lot of financial potential in there

but what it certainly isn't is easy

So just because something is simple

and just because something gets a lot of attention

does not mean that it is easy

And I'm going to make that case in this video

and then I'm going to give you guys

a simple road map to avoid falling

into the trap that I'm seeing a

lot of people do right now

So to make a long story short

the make money online landscape

cuz rest assured that's what this is

It's the exact same thing

as like the social media marketing agency fad of a few years ago

the web design fad of a few years ago

the drop shipping fad

What we're seeing right now is exactly that same thing

has been super saturated with tons of misleading opportunities

Now it's true that AI has created a window for opportunities

but it's not in the way that most gurus present it

The way that most people are pitching it right now is

it's like a passive income scheme

Okay People are selling you AI businesses as if it requires no effort

It's going to make you money while you sleep

Let me tell you something

This specific business model

which people are selling you

but not totally formulating

is an agency service business model

You can't make money while you sleep with this

You need to get on sales calls with prospects

You need to hunch over laptops or MacBook screens

building dragging and dropping systems

You need to be whiteboarding flows

You need to be doing things like prompt engineering

So reality check

The vast majority of these AI gurus have never built

any successful businesses outside of just selling courses

If you want to make a determination

as to how exactly to get up and running

focus on people that have actually done the thing that you want to do

not just people that talk about it

okay And also passive income schemes rarely work for beginners without existing audiences

what you'll find is

and if you're a beginner

maybe this won't make the most sense to you

but there's a difference between inbound marketing and then outbound marketing

So inbound marketing is when a customer comes to a business

in order for a business to get some sort of inbound marketing

obviously that business needs distribution

it needs popularity

It needs some way to get the word out

right now

if you are a beginner business and you have no idea what the heck

you're doing you have no capital to invest

you have no ads to whip up

you have no idea how to position your product

you can't really do inbound marketing very well

if at all

So what most of these businesses

accelerators

and courses are pitching you is inbound

In reality

if you're a total beginner

more or less the only way that you

can actually generate outsized opportunities is through outbound

So it's not just sitting on your butt and

you know hearing the chuch-ching noises while you sleep

What you have to do is you actually have to go

and you have to hunt

you have to prospect

you have to you know

get on the phone

you have to dial

you have to record Loom videos

you have to send cold emails

you have to put yourself out there over and over and over again

And what you'll find is that's not very sexy

So very few people ultimately talk about that

But if you want to make a business uh work from scratch

especially in like a bootstrapped way

you can't focus on the inbound

Inbound just doesn't work
