5 AI Agents That Can Earn You $1000 Per Day
The guys from Authority Hacker run through the five agents…
Their conclusion 
The email management for newsletters would be what I would choose because it’s high value you can sell it for $5-10K plus [per month]
They show an example of an AI agent they’ve created for their own newsletter.
With that in place, all they have to do is write some rough notes / bullet points for each edition 
An AI agent takes those notes, researches and fleshes everything out, then writes up a draft of the newsletter using previous editions as a guide to nail the voice / writing style.
Still some light human editing needed before sending, but overall the AI saves a ton of time and money (compared to hiring someone or doing it all yourself) 
The result…
30% open rate on the list to tens of thousands of people… the clickthrough rate is also very high… people actually like it. This newsletter has driven a lot of revenue over the years.
The idea is to set up and maintain agents like this for clients.
Definitely a learning curve to learn how to build AI agents, but tons of opportunity there if you’re willing to do the work

$500 Per Week From “The Perfect Side Hustle”
SarahHampr Washr $3000 monthly revenueThere’s an app called hampr that lets you outsource your laundry 
Via the app you can also get paid to do other people’s laundry…
As a hampr washr, you can expect average earnings of $500 weekly, depending on your market, all while keeping your job and family commitments intact. It’s the perfect side hustle!
Another newsletter tells the story of Sarah
a stay-at-home mom who transformed her knack for washing clothes into a $3,000/month income using hampr…
• Per Load Earnings: Assuming an average of $20 per hampr.
• Weekly Loads: Processing 35-40 hamprs…
• Monthly Income: Around $2,800-$3,200
Each load takes about 1.5 hours to process fully, so the hourly rate ain’t all that great.
But I could see someone scaling this up with multiple machines and a partner doing pick-up and delivery
Probably $10K/month potential there, similar to the $10K/mo delivery app grandparents I told you about recently.
He Built an App, Hit $44K Per Month, Then Sold It.
Steven CravottaFounder of Puff Count $44,000 monthly revenueSteven Cravotta built Puff Count, an app to help people quit vaping 
Featured him before…
$40K Per Month Helping People Quit VapingHe recently tweeted that he got the app to $44K in monthly revenue before selling it 
Steven’s advice for finding million dollar app ideas…
Go to SensorTower.com and type in any app and it will tell you exactly how much it’s making. If it’s making over $100,000 a month you know it’s a pretty good app idea.
And with all the AI tools available now, anyone can build an app in less than 30 days.
After your app is built and launched… go on TikTok and post organically or hire creators to post about your app.
The beautiful thing about mobile apps is there’s infinite scale… you only have to build it one time and you can sell it to as many people as you want without doing more work.
2 People Earning $1000’s Writing on Medium
James JulianWriter $3000 revenue in 8 days
Christina Piccoli tweeted in July 2023…
I just read a stat that only 6% of people make $1000 or more per month on Medium.
Time to get myself into that 6%.
She earned just $1.12 via Medium that month.
Since then she’s been posting regular articles and building up a 5.7K following on the platform.
And this past April she finally hit her target, earning $1008.06 for the month 
You can see all her Medium articles listed here, though you have to be a paid Medium member to read them fully.
Looks like she’s posting ~3 times per week, on various topics.
Christina says she mostly covers topics she’s genuinely curious about.
Meanwhile, James Julian writes…
He’s been at it for almost 3 years, see all his articles here.
Definitely money to be made on Medium if you enjoy writing and stick with it long enough
Copy This Website For Other Cities & Earn $10K/Month
Nicolas BoulianeFounder of All About Berlin $10,000 monthly revenueNicolas Bouliane writes
Since 2017, I run a website called All About Berlin. It hosts a large collection of detailed guides that help immigrants settle in Germany… It’s my full time job since 2020.
From a recent report…
All About Berlin generates revenue primarily through affiliate marketing and reader donations.
It partners with services like banks, insurance providers, and relocation agencies, earning commissions when users sign up. With an estimated 481,500 visits per month, the site is believed to generate around $10,000 per month.
Sounds like Nicolas was an immigrant to Berlin himself 
and his website documents everything he’s learned over the years.
I’m thinking there could be a profitable website like this for every popular migration hub.
SEO on easy mode since you’d mainly be targeting local keywords
$4000/Month Passive Income via Instagram
Esther LuvvEntrepreneur $4000 monthly revenue Esther Luvv writes…
She basically grows and monetizes Instagram accounts.
The pages continue to grow due to always outsourcing [to] quality people.
Income rolls in from story promotions, affiliate marketing deals, and even the occasional sale/flipping of an account. What started as a random, high-school hobby has turned into a passive-income stream.
Focused mostly on “comedy and model pages,” all faceless.
We curate existing content probably 75% of the time. The other 25% is either our own content or a user submission… Instagram is the king of copy and paste, but it’s nice to incorporate your own pages feel/brand.
Advice for others…
find a niche that you won’t get sick of for 3 months… that is how long you should post once a day for…
During those 3 months keep soaking up information and trying new tactics…
Jun Yuh is a good influencer to check out on YouTube. He has a lot of good videos for beginners and he’s straight to the point with everything.

Grandparents Making $10K/Month With Delivery Apps
Day and Al StefanelliDelivery Drivers $10,000 monthly revenue A paywalled article about Day and Al Stefanelli.
They started off doing food deliveries via Instacart and DoorDash.
Then
Day and Al noticed that while a fast food drop might pay $10, a Walgreens run or a package from the Apple Store (packing services) could earn 3-4x that. Then came Amazon Flex, with $90–$160 routes and heavier loads. “Instead of running 10 little gigs, you can run five bigger ones,” Day says…
Once they understood the upside of larger hauls, they didn’t hesitate. They bought a cargo van and started using Roadie…
Suddenly, they were hauling huge trees, basketball hoops and catering equipment for a bigger payout per job. But soon they realized “there’s always a bigger job around the bend.” So they bought a trailer. Gigs involving a trailer paid between $500 and $750 each — and $1,000 on their best day ever.
With the right equipment, they moved into a space where fewer drivers compete, and the rates reflect that.
Great example of taking a simple side hustle very seriously, thereby earning a good income from it

17-Year-Old’s Quirky $20K/Month Side Hustle
Michael SatterleeFounder of SoleFully $20,000 monthly revenueAn interview with Michael Satterlee
The business is SoleFully = 3D printed accessories for Crocs.
Michael says…
I started in 2023 after learning 3D printing in my design and drawing for production (DDP) class. I decided to buy a 3D printer and started researching product ideas.
I came across a story about someone making a lot of money selling snow plow attachments for crocs and realized there was a huge opportunity. I jumped on it and built an entire store around that niche…
TikTok and Instagram have been everything for me — that’s where all my marketing happens. I average around 50 million monthly impressions, and it’s 100% organic. I’ve never run paid ads, just consistent, creative content.
What niche or industry are you already familiar with?
Might 3D printed accessories work well there? 
$500-1000 Monthly Passive Income From Skillshare Courses
Dan PrizontCourse Creator $750 approximate monthly revenue Dan Prizont writes…
Content creation courses on e-learning platforms [are] 70% of my “passive” income now… they make money while I sleep. At the moment I publish 1-2 classes per year…
I just publish beginner courses about the things I know and/or are useful to me. If I try a new editing software or want to document how I do X or Y, I create a course for it.
Sounds like his main platform is Skillshare, see his classes here 
These platforms also have a monthly newsletter showing which topics are in demand or trending. Tons of courses already exist about those topics, but you can bring your own twist or… update the style/info…
Some months I make $500 with my courses, some months $1000. It fluctuates quite a bit. The more courses you publish, the higher the chances of making more money.
His average course is ~30 minutes long with ~500 students, so you don’t need big numbers to earn some nice passive income here
