How I Made Over $6,850 With One Simple AI Video in 2025: A Step-by-Step Guide to Making Money Online

In 2025, there’s a super powerful way to make money online that I want to share with you today. Believe it or not, I made over $6,850 with a single AI-generated video. Yes, you read that correctly!

Now, you may be wondering, “How did you do that?” Let me show you how I created one video, how it garnered over 50,000 views, 892 automated comments, and most importantly, how it resulted in 72 sales that earned me that $6,850.

Step 1: Understanding the Power of AI Videos

To give you an idea of how powerful AI videos can be, let me show you some examples. If you look at my automated Instagram account, you’ll notice that I post a lot of AI-generated content. But it’s not just me – tons of other people are doing the same thing in various niches, making significant money.

Take for example this Instagram account @barioartist, who posted a video that received 88.6 million views and 75,000 comments. That’s not just luck – it’s a strategy that’s working for many people across niches.

Another example: an AI-generated video in the fitness niche with 104 million views and 14,000 comments. These numbers might seem big, but they prove a powerful point: you don’t need a ton of sales to make significant money. I made $6,850 from just 50,000 views and 72 sales, showing that even a small number of engaged viewers can lead to a substantial income.

Step 2: Niche Examples of Success

AI videos aren’t limited to one niche. Here are a few examples of other creators making money online with AI-generated content:

1. Fitness Niche: One AI-generated avatar in the fitness space has over 95,000 followers and generates millions of views.
2. Animals & Pets Niche: Another creator has a simple AI cat avatar and has amassed millions of views with content related to animals.
3. Spirituality Niche: There are creators combining spirituality and AI-generated videos, racking up millions of views with content related to divine intervention and religion.

These are just a few examples showing the diversity of niches where you can leverage AI videos to make money online.

Step 3: How to Create AI Videos for Free

Now that you understand the potential, let’s dive into how you can create these videos and start generating income.

AI Software #1: AIVA

The first software I use to create AI-generated content is AIVA. This tool allows you to create a variety of images and videos with AI. Here’s how you can get started:

1. Go to the AIVA Explore Page to see different AI-generated images and videos.
2. You can create anything from fitness avatars to cinematic videos by simply inputting a text prompt.
3. For example, I typed in a prompt like “a baby covered in tattoos counting money in a stash house,” and the AI created several unique images for me.

AIVA offers free image and video creation with limited credits, so you can start experimenting without paying. Once you’re happy with the result, download your AI video for use on platforms like Instagram, YouTube Shorts, TikTok, or Facebook.

AI Software #2: Cling AI

Once you’ve created your AI image with AIVA, you can bring it to life using Cling AI. Cling AI is an advanced AI video creation tool where you can upload your image and turn it into a moving video. Here’s how:

1. Sign up for Cling AI and upload the image created with AIVA.
2. Use a simple prompt to describe what you want the video to look like. For instance, “The baby in the middle is counting money while the other babies clap.”
3. Generate your video (you can use either the standard or professional mode, depending on your needs).
4. Once the video is generated, you can download it and upload it to your social media platforms.

Step 4: Monetizing Your AI Videos

Now that you’ve created your AI video, it’s time to monetize it. Here are a few strategies that I use to make money:

1. Affiliate Marketing: Promote affiliate products or software. For instance, after creating your AI videos, you can promote tools like Cling AI or other AI software through affiliate marketing. Platforms like ClickBank, Digistore24, and JVZoo offer a wide range of products you can promote.
2. AI Software Promotions: If you’re using tools like Cling AI and AIVA, you can also sign up to promote them as an affiliate. Many AI tools have affiliate programs where you can earn commissions.
3. Monetization Platforms: You can join platforms like YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram and monetize your videos with ads, affiliate links, or sponsorships.

Step 5: Final Thoughts – Getting Started

Remember, the key to success in this strategy is creating engaging content and promoting the right products. Don’t just rely on likes or followers; focus on producing content that gets views and engages people. In 2025, views = currency, and by leveraging AI, you can tap into a new way to generate income online.
