How To Make Money With ChatGPT (7 Ways To Make $100 Per Day)

A viewer asked me a simple question: “Alston, have you tried ChatGPT? Can you show us how to make money with it?” That question kicked off one of the most practical sessions I have ever recorded, because the answer is yes, and there are at least seven real ways to turn this AI writing tool into income today.

Before ChatGPT, I was already paying a freelancer around forty dollars every month or two just to come up with Pinterest pin ideas. When I opened ChatGPT and typed a single prompt, it handed me five strong headlines in seconds. That moment made everything click. This tool is not about replacing your brain. It is about eliminating the blank-page problem so you can move faster on every platform that pays.

Why ChatGPT Changes the Game Right Now

Before this video I was a regular user of Jasper.ai. Jasper works, but it asks you a series of questions and requires you to give it direction at every step. ChatGPT is different. You describe what you want in plain language, and it runs with the idea. It is also more current. Jasper was often three to four years behind on information, which matters when you are writing about prices, products, or current events.

The most important thing to understand before we go through each method: ChatGPT is a starting point, not a finished product. Every output needs to be read, massaged, and verified before it goes anywhere public. If you paste raw AI output directly into an email to your list, they will notice it does not sound like you. The goal is to eliminate writer’s block and the blank page, not to outsource your entire voice to a machine.

Way 1: Pinterest Pins for Affiliate Marketing and Fiverr Income

Pinterest is a search engine in the form of a social network, and it runs on visual headlines called pins. For a long time I paid someone about forty dollars every couple of months to come up with fresh pin ideas for my affiliate content. The problem was not the cost. The problem was the wait. I had to brief them, review drafts, and go back and forth before anything was ready to publish.

With ChatGPT the prompt is straightforward. Type “write Pinterest pin headlines for affiliate marketing” and it returns five ready-to-use options immediately. You can follow up with “keep writing” and it will generate another batch. If you have a niche in mind, get specific: “write Pinterest pin headlines for budget meal prep affiliate products” or “write Pinterest pin headlines for beginner photography equipment.” The more specific your prompt, the more usable the output.

On Fiverr there are sellers charging forty dollars for 200 custom Pinterest pin ideas. With ChatGPT you could generate 200 pin headlines in under thirty minutes. That is not a bad hourly rate for someone who is willing to learn the prompts and deliver clean, niche-specific results to clients. On top of the Fiverr angle, you can put those pins to work yourself, using them to drive traffic to digital products, affiliate links, or your own landing pages through a free Canva-designed pin graphic.

Way 2: TikTok Scripts Using answerthepublic.com

TikTok is where attention lives right now. The challenge with TikTok is that you need a constant stream of ideas that actually resonate with your audience. Writing scripts from scratch every single day drains creative energy fast, especially once you feel like you have covered every angle on your topic.

The workflow that makes this method click combines two free tools. Go to answerthepublic.com and type in your niche. If you focus on digital products, search that term. Under the data view you will see real questions people are typing into search engines, things like “are digital products taxable?” Copy one of those questions, paste it into ChatGPT with a simple prefix: “write TikTok script on are digital products taxable.” ChatGPT will generate a complete script with an intro, talking points, and a close.

The output for the relationship advice example in the video came back with a two-person dialogue format, complete with character names, humor, and a structured format ready to film. That is not a rough outline. That is a workable first draft. You edit it to match your voice, add your own specific experience or angle, and you have a script in under ten minutes instead of an hour. Monetization works the same way as Pinterest: digital products, affiliate links, or a coaching offer at the end of each video.

Way 3: Email Marketing with the AIDA Method

Email marketing consistently returns more revenue per contact than almost any social platform. The problem most people run into is not having a list. It is not knowing what to write once they have one. Writer’s block hits hard when you are staring at a blank email editor knowing thousands of people are on the other end.

ChatGPT handles the AIDA method well. AIDA stands for Attention, Interest, Desire, and Action. It is a proven structure for emails that convert. Type “email using the AIDA method on how to start affiliate marketing for beginners” and ChatGPT builds the structure for you, writing each section in order. The output may not be perfect out of the box. In the example from the video, the email mixed up the definition slightly, calling it Attention and Desire instead of all four stages correctly. That is the kind of thing you catch when you read through it, fix the framing, and reword any section that feels off.

You can also work in layers. Ask for the full email first, then ask for a call to action separately (“write call to action to start affiliate marketing”), then ask for a subject line (“write effective email subject line for affiliate marketing”). Piece the three sections together and you have a complete, structured email in the time it used to take just to decide on a topic. You can use this same approach to write emails for Fiverr clients. Search “email marketing” on Fiverr and you will find sellers charging solid rates for email copy. With ChatGPT doing the heavy lifting, you can fulfill those orders faster and take on more clients.

Way 4: YouTube Scripts for Affiliate Comparison Videos

YouTube scripts are one of the most powerful uses because a well-structured script is the foundation of a monetized video. Most people avoid scripting because it takes time. If it normally takes you thirty minutes to write an email, writing a two-thousand-word YouTube script from scratch can eat an entire afternoon.

The prompt to try first: “write a 2000 word YouTube script on 10 ways to make money online.” ChatGPT will begin generating immediately. It may not hit 2,000 words in a single pass, but you can follow up with “write more about dropshipping” or “write more about e-commerce” to expand each section until the total is where you need it.

The affiliate angle is especially strong with comparison videos. In the video I demonstrated this with a Bluehost versus HostGator script. The prompt: “write YouTube script for Bluehost versus HostGator where Bluehost is the better option.” ChatGPT built the script with background on both platforms, a comparison of key features, and a conclusion that favored Bluehost. That kind of framing is exactly what affiliate marketers need: a script that reviews the product honestly but puts the promoted option in the best light based on real advantages.

One critical warning that came up in the video: always verify prices before publishing. ChatGPT can pull outdated pricing information, especially around sales events like Black Friday. Fact-check every number before the video goes live. The structure is good, but the data needs your review.

Way 5: Facebook Posts That Add Value to Groups

Facebook groups are underrated. There are massive communities around every niche imaginable, from fitness to personal finance to home cooking. If you join those groups and spam your affiliate link, you get removed. If you join those groups and consistently add valuable content, people start paying attention to you.

ChatGPT makes the valuable content part easy. Type “write Facebook post about common weight loss myths” and it returns a structured post with myth number one, myth number two, and so on. Each myth is explained clearly and is the kind of information that stops people scrolling. It solves a real problem without asking for anything in return.

The workflow I showed in the video pairs ChatGPT with Canva. Open Canva, search for the Facebook post template, and paste the ChatGPT output into a visual design. Add an image related to your niche, format the text, and drop your domain at the bottom in small print. It will not be clickable inside Facebook, but people who find your post valuable will leave the app, type your domain into a browser, and land on your website. That is how you convert group engagement into traffic without violating the group’s rules about direct promotional links.

The whole process for one post took about three minutes in the video. If you batch this once a week and create seven posts at once, you have a full week of group content ready to schedule or drop manually each day. Monetize those posts by directing people to affiliate products, digital downloads, or a free lead magnet that builds your email list.

Way 6: Facebook Ads Copy

Writing Facebook ad copy that passes the platform’s review and actually converts is a skill that takes time to develop. Most beginners write ads that are either too salesy and get flagged, or too vague and get ignored. ChatGPT gives you a working first draft that you can shape into something compliant and effective.

The prompt in the video was simple: “write Facebook ad to help people make money.” The output started with “Attention: are you struggling to make ends meet and ready to take control of your income?” That is a solid hook. The body copy laid out the value proposition and included a general call to action. Following that with a second prompt, “write Facebook ad headline,” produced options like “Make money from home with our proven online business system.”

You still need to verify that your ad copy follows Facebook’s advertising policies, particularly around income claims. Do not let ChatGPT write claims you cannot back up with real results. Use the generated copy as a structure and swap in accurate numbers and honest language. The monetization options for Facebook ads are wide: coaching offers, digital products, affiliate landing pages, webinar registrations, and lead magnet opt-ins all work as conversion goals for this type of ad.

Way 7: Blog Posts for Affiliate Marketing and Ad Revenue

Blog posts are the slowest and most nuanced of the seven methods because of how Google handles AI-written content. That said, they are still valuable when used correctly.

The prompt from the video: “write 2000 word blog post about five best kitchen knives for beginners.” ChatGPT returns a structured article with an intro, individual sections for each knife, and a conclusion. You can pull the Amazon affiliate links for each product mentioned, verify the specifications and prices yourself, and embed those links throughout the post. You can also turn the same blog post into a YouTube video and embed that video back into the article, so you are earning from YouTube ad revenue, blog display ads, and affiliate commissions all from a single piece of content.

The honest caveat, which I raised directly in the video: Google uses AI tools to detect AI-generated content, and their position on it has been evolving. In my view, the blogging landscape is going to shift over the next few years as AI becomes more widespread. Use ChatGPT to break through writer’s block and generate your structure, but rewrite the output in your own voice before publishing. That human layer is what protects you from potential ranking penalties and keeps your content sounding like a person, not a machine.

Honest Drawbacks to Using ChatGPT for Income

This tool is genuinely powerful, but it is not a passive income machine on its own. Here are the real limitations to keep in mind before you build a business strategy around it.

Outdated information: ChatGPT can reference prices, statistics, and platform features that are months or years out of date. Always verify any number before publishing or sending.
It does not sound like you: If you send raw ChatGPT output to an email list that knows your voice, they will notice. Every output needs to be rewritten with your personality, examples, and perspective.
Unpredictable outputs: The tool can go off-track. In the video it started generating an ESPN email when I asked it to write for my own site, because it had more data about ESPN than about a personal brand. The output reflects the training data, not your specific business context.
Google scrutiny: AI-generated blog content faces increasing detection and potential ranking issues. The blog method carries more long-term risk than the social and email methods.
Not a complete business: ChatGPT accelerates content creation. It does not replace the need for a traffic strategy, an offer, and a conversion path. You still need to know what you are selling and who you are selling it to.

A Real-Numbers Breakdown: What Each Method Can Earn

Here is a grounded look at the earning range for each method based on what was discussed in the video and how these platforms typically work.

Pinterest pins on Fiverr: $40 per 200-pin order. If you can complete two to three orders per week, that is $80 to $120 per week before Fiverr’s cut. Add affiliate income from your own pins on top.
TikTok scripts: Revenue depends on your niche and whether you are building an affiliate audience or selling scripts as a service. Script-writing gigs on Fiverr range from $10 to $50 per script.
Email marketing: Email marketing services on Fiverr range widely, but a solid email copywriter can charge $25 to $100 per email. With ChatGPT speed, volume is more achievable.
YouTube scripts: Scriptwriting gigs exist on Fiverr starting around $50 for a 1,000-word script. Affiliate income from your own videos scales with view count and conversion rate.
Facebook posts and ads: Group-based content is free to post and builds warm audiences over time. Ad copy services on Fiverr range from $20 to $75 per ad.
Blog posts: Affiliate blog income is passive once it ranks, but it takes months to build. AI-assisted blog posts are best used to build volume quickly while you refine for quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is ChatGPT free to use for making money online?

ChatGPT has a free tier that gives you access to the base model. The free version is capable enough for all seven methods discussed in this video. There is a paid tier that offers faster response times and access to newer model versions, but you do not need to pay to get started generating Pinterest pins, TikTok scripts, or email copy.

Can I sell ChatGPT-generated content on Fiverr without disclosing it?

Fiverr’s terms of service and the terms of most content platforms allow AI assistance but require you to disclose it in some contexts. More practically, the best protection is to always edit and rewrite the output so the final product genuinely reflects your skill and effort. Submitting raw unedited AI output is both ethically questionable and likely to produce mediocre results that hurt your reviews.

How do I avoid giving clients or my email list inaccurate information?

Verify every fact, price, and statistic before it goes anywhere public. ChatGPT can confidently state outdated numbers or even fabricate plausible-sounding details. Treat the output like a first draft from an intern who is smart but has not checked their sources. You are the editor, and the final verification is always your responsibility.

Is ChatGPT better than Jasper.ai for these tasks?

In the video I said ChatGPT felt more intuitive for conversational prompts. Jasper requires more structured input at each step, while ChatGPT lets you describe what you want in plain language and generates the full output. Jasper has strengths for long-form structured writing with templates, but for the quick-turn use cases covered here, ChatGPT is faster to get started with. Both tools have their place.

Will Google penalize my blog for using AI-written content?

Google has stated that their focus is on helpful, high-quality content regardless of how it was produced. In practice, thin or unedited AI content that does not add real value tends to rank poorly. If you use ChatGPT to generate a structure and then rewrite it with your own expertise, real examples, and human perspective, you are producing something genuinely useful. That is what Google rewards, not the source of the first draft.

What is answerthepublic.com and why does it matter for TikTok?

answerthepublic.com is a free keyword research tool that visualizes the questions people are searching for around any topic. When you combine those real search queries with ChatGPT-generated scripts, you are creating content that matches what your audience is already looking for. That combination of demand-driven topics and fast production is a powerful workflow for building a consistent TikTok presence.

How long does it take to write a 200-pin Pinterest batch with ChatGPT?

In practical terms, you can generate a large batch of headlines in under an hour. ChatGPT returns several ideas per prompt, and you can continue the conversation by typing “keep writing” to get more. You do need to review, remove duplicates, and edit awkward phrasings, but even with that review time, producing 200 Pinterest pin ideas in one session is realistic for anyone willing to work through the prompts systematically.

Do I need my own website to make money with ChatGPT?

No. Several of the methods in this video do not require a website at all. Selling scripts or copy on Fiverr, creating TikTok content, and posting in Facebook groups can all be done without owning a domain. That said, having a website gives you a destination to drive traffic to, which expands your monetization options significantly over time. The blog post and YouTube script methods particularly benefit from having a site where you can place affiliate links and collect email subscribers.
