Today, I'm going to show you how to use the new features in Notebook LM to put tons of money in your pocket. This is based on a strategy that I've been using for many years to make lots of money. Back in the days when I started, you had to be on camera; you had to have your voice; you had to do all this research—it was insane.
Now, with Notebook LM, things are way easier, and we're going to take a look at some of the new updates to Notebook LM. Like over here in the Notebook LM Studio, before we were able to come here to Notebook and put a bunch of different topics, videos, websites, or whatever it is. Over here, you could even put PDFs or text files or whatever, and it would generate its own little ecosystem AI that we could ask questions to and create content about.
One of the biggest features back in the day, like a couple of months ago, was the ability to actually load a conversation about this topic. So, what the AI is going to do is go through all of the stuff that I feed it. It is going to come up with a podcast-style conversation, and just that quickly, it is going to talk about—you ready to see?
—the different nine YouTube channel ideas to make money, which is really cool because now we're getting audio that sounds real. It's like an actual podcast, right? I mean, it's tempting, but figuring out actual two people talking back and forth, which is really cool.
It's a 13-minute podcast, and it's looking pretty good. Now, we can also download this podcast; we can share it; we can do whatever we want. What I'm going to do is actually download it right like this because I want to test something in the ability to make money.
This is something that is unparalleled before, and it is the interactive mode beta. We're going to get to this in just a minute. First of all, what I want you to look at here with this interactive mode beta is the fact that you can actually ask questions of the AI in your microphone and get a response.
So, if I come in here and I say something like, "Okay, let's interact," we're going to go ahead and say allow while visiting this site, or allow this time; that way, it doesn't always do it by default. Now, I can actually play the conversation here. Okay, so, are you ready to see if YouTube can be that income stream, right?
I could say something like this: let's go ahead and hit join, and it should load it here. Let's try to get it to load right like this. I mean, it's tempting to try.
Oh, hey there! What's up? Hey there!
I want to know about some of the scams that are going on with YouTube automation and some of the niches that people say will work but actually don't. Okay, so you're asking about some of the less legitimate stuff going on, right? Yeah, like the dark.
. . Oh, yeah, uh-huh, yeah, exactly.
So, as you can see, I'm interacting. So it sounds like you're wanting to delve into the more deceptive practices. Yeah, like the leading claims and stuff that doesn't really work.
And we were actually just about to get into that, right? We were talking about the hype and unrealistic expectations. So, see how this is actually going through?
I can have a conversation with the AI in this ecosystem. This is where this gets really important. I'm going to get ahead of myself here because I'm really excited about this.
This is where this gets really, really important because what's happening is you are taking something like, let's say, ChatGPT. Okay, ChatGPT is trained on everything—it's like a one-size-fits-all, jack of all trades. I know everything.
Whereas what we're doing with Notebook LM is we are feeding it specific stuff that I want. So if I say, "Hey, I only want to feed it reports from this financial guru or that financial guru, or these YouTube videos or this news outlet," then I could get a custom output based on that ecosystem. It is only going to give me information in that contained ecosystem.
Now, the reason this is important, even with the new podcast update, is this is going to make us smarter and it's going to make us learn a lot faster. What I can do is take a bunch of different videos, throw them in here, have a 10-minute conversation, learn what they're about, ask the specific questions I have, and bada boom, bada bang, we are off to the races. Now, as we go through here, I'm curious to see one important thing with this because up until now, yes, we could get a podcast, yes, we could get notes, and yes, we could ask questions, but we actually want to go through and see if we could take it a step further and have us in the podcast.
More about that in just a minute. So first of all, Notebook LM is going to make you smarter; it's going to help you learn fast if you do this properly. Let's say you're in a niche market and you want to talk about dog training and you don't know about dog training or you don't know about this, that, or the other.
What we can do is actually go in, throw in our competitors' info, and get information on what's going on. We can create an FAQ; we can create a podcast; we can create a blog post; we can make pretty much anything—again, within that ecosystem. the ecosystem of the information that we give it.
Specifically, it's not going to go outside and look for other stuff unless you tell it or unless you give it something else. That is where this tool is unparalleled from anything else we've ever seen. This is almost like training your own AI on the topics that you want, which is super important.
Now, in addition to learning fast, we are also going to be able to create content. So, going here like this, I can create content with Notebook LM. All I need to do is add my sources.
You can see here I can have Google Docs, Google Slides, websites, YouTube, copied text, or more; or I could quite simply just upload files, images, pretty much the whole nine yards. So, if I go through and I'm like, "Okay, let's just give it a bunch of Word doc files," boom! It'll put those in there and it'll be ready to go.
Okay, some files it'll allow; some it will not. Now, this example actually went through and got a bunch of YouTube links, and boom! They're ready to go.
Now here, what we're seeing is it actually gives us an audio overview, a briefing doc, notes; we can say, "Make an FAQ," something like that. And then with the podcast example, I'm curious to see if it'll do one thing, but let me get to that in just a minute. Next, what we want to do is say, "Okay, what kind of content can we make and how would this work?
" Well, I want you to think, "Okay, instead of just static blog posts, we can now create two people talking and actually have the words on the screen showing them what we're talking about, maybe have some b-roll images and videos where we can actually make a full video from this podcast. " Really, really cool! But I want to see if we can actually take it a step further and include me in the podcast.
Okay, so we could see here it is generating a list of all the different niches and FAQs and different things like that. Again, it is citing the resources of where it got the info and which video it's from. So, this could be something where you can go through and do a video very fast on, "I watched 100 Guru videos about niches; here's what I learned.
" I listened to a thousand psychologists, or let's say 100 or 10 just to make it easy; here's what I learned. I read these books on this topic; here's what I learned. This is where this is going to get really, really important because once we're able to create content with voices, even including our own voice, again, if you don't want to use your voice, you could use AI.
However, I think using your own voice in this is going to give you an edge, and I'll talk about that in a minute. So, creating content, what we're going to do is we're going to look for things that people are interested in. You can look at different podcasts; you can go out there and say, "Well, maybe there's book reviews people want.
" This is actually a way that I've gotten a lot of traffic by having book review discussions. Like let's say you want to promote a book or a course or whatever it is; you would just talk about all the other stuff in your niche and point to the things that make you money. It's very simple, right?
We could go through and say, "Okay, here's 100 different psychologists," and now point to my thing. "Here's a hundred different finance gurus talking about stocks; now here's my thing talking about stocks. " Going through and looking at this is an absolute game changer.
When you look at something like "book review" with 50,000 different keywords and about a half a million searches a month, what we also want to do is look at the specifics. If I were to go through and say, "Well, let's do something like 'Don't Eat the Marshmallow' book or something like that," right, what you're going to see is people actually search for these books. Now, let's do this a little bit better.
Let's say we went to Chat GPT or something like that and we say, "Okay, let's find, you know, list 100 top finance books, just the title please. " What we can do is we can actually generate discussions about these books, right? So here's some finance books, and what you'll see is if we have the titles like this, let's just take 20 of them to show you how this works.
So, we'll go like this and copy these into our keyword tool. Right like this, you're going to see that a lot of people look these up. This is a method that I've used that actually made my addiction channel very popular.
If you were to go through and look at Talk So, which is my addiction channel over here, you're going to see that some of the videos we did were actually about book reviews. Like over here, we have, I think this one was a book review, and then we had one about "Control Alcohol: The Body Keeps the Score" and different things like that, where we're actually talking about the book and we're able to get traffic about that book. What we want to do is just make a good discussion about it, which is what Notebook LM is allowing us to do, which is really cool.
Now, if we go through here, we can see it'll do the podcast again. Are you ready to see if YouTube can be that income stream? Right?
I mean, it's tempting! Yeah, but figuring out where to. .
. Even start? See, let's see if we could join here.
It could be overwhelming, you know? You've sent it! Whoa, did someone just break the fourth wall?
Let's hear it. Yeah, so I wanted to know some of the scammy YouTube niche stuff where they might be teaching things that don't work. Can you tell me a little bit about those?
Yeah, that's a good point. It's important to be aware of that. So, what I want to see here is I could actually go through, and here's a cool thing: I could read a bunch of books, and I can have a dialogue podcast about them.
What I want to see here is if the download includes me; that's what I want to see. Let's see if this includes. Okay, so, uh, you're ready to see if YouTube can be that income stream, right?
I mean, it's tempting, but figuring out where to even start—it could be overwhelming. You know, you sent in a ton of sources—YouTubers talking about their strategies and a deep dive. I'm not hearing it there.
Let's see what happens when we reload. Okay, download. Let's see; so that is the same—37.
1 megs. Let's see info. You can now input and ask here.
Are some tips? The voice and transcribe will not be stored. Okay, so I kind of don't like that.
Clicking on "share" will share download your original. Other users will not be able to interact. This may be a slight delay.
So what I could do and what I—here's what I would do, right? Let's say I wanted to do a topic about this, and I wanted to keep my voice in it so that I'm part of it. What I would do is I would actually record it in something like Camtasia over here, all right?
And I would record the entire thing with my talking, and then I would edit it in Camtasia. That would probably work well. I mean, it might take a while, but you can have an editor do that in seconds, and you'll see the differences in how to edit that through.
I'm guessing they will allow that in the future where we could actually download where we could actually download the talk with us in it, which I think would be key. Until now, I mean, the audio is there, so if I go through and I record this, it should work really well. Let's try a little example, and I'll show you while I'm here.
It's going to be a little difficult because I am going to do this while we are on the recording, but let's go through and let's do join. Actually, let's reload it here. I think we're going to have to reload.
All right, it's getting a little slow, but let's see how this does. So going through here, let's go load, and then we'll go to interactive mode right over here. Okay, so interactive.
Now, what I would do is I would start. Right here, I have the recording in Camtasia; that is there recording. I just click the record button, and we're good to go.
Or you could use something like Voice Recorder or whatever. Let's say you wanted a voice recorder or something like this. It should allow us to record both me and the computer, I believe.
If not, we can splice them together. Let me show you how. What I would do to splice them together is I would hit record here, and you can see it's actually recording me.
Then, when I go through, okay, so, uh, you're ready to see if YouTube can be that income stream? It's tempting, but figuring out where to even start—oh, yeah, it could be overwhelming. Oh, hey, welcome!
What's up? Hey, thanks for having me on. Can you tell me a little bit about the scams and the niches that don't work and some of the dark side of YouTube automation?
Okay, yeah, that's a good point. I mean, we've been talking about the potential, but it's important to be aware of the downsides too. Yeah, like we were planning to talk about some of the pitfalls later, but we can definitely shift gears and talk about the scams, the niches that don't work, and some of that dark side.
Exactly! And some of these sources inside—that's something that's really important. And going through.
. . Let me stop this recording so you can see how it works.
Okay, so looking at it here, what we would do to edit is you would just patch in your audio. If you wanted your face on there, it's fine. If you wanted to have the screen share, you could do that as well, or you can have b-roll or whatever you want.
B-roll is just footage that would explain what we're talking about. Now, what you can see here is that recording the screen and recording the audio from me on the microphone, you can see how this works here. Then, when I go through, okay, so, uh, let me patch it back.
A little bit of an echo, so let's see. Okay, so, uh, you're ready to see if YouTube can be that? I would just patch it in, so I would get rid of the error, so I could just mute me there, and then it seems like it's doing pretty good.
Welcome—what's up? Hey, thanks for having me on! Can you tell me a little bit about SC inter niches that don't work and some of the dark side of YouTube automation?
And then you can go through and clean it up, so like watch here, I'll clean this up, and it'll sound like they're just talking to me of YouTube automation. Okay, yeah, that's a. .
. Good point! I mean, we've been talking about the potential, but it's good to be aware of the downsides too.
Yeah, we’re planning to talk; it's like I am literally talking to these two people about my podcast stuff—or about the topic, rather. So, this is something that we can use in a really easy way. If you record it until they have the capabilities, I think you can make your own podcast with AI.
I mean, if you wanted to do this in a simple way, you could make a channel called "Conversations with AI. " You can have conversations with AI about anything; just be transparent about the fact that it's AI, and bada bing, bada boom, you're off to the races! This is something where you can say, "Okay, conversations with my AI host about X, Y, or Z.
" Creating content with this is an absolute game changer, and the cool thing about it is that it's actually going to give you the notes alongside it. So, as we go through and use this, we're going to see some huge, huge opportunities. What we're looking at here is we can actually use this to create videos.
Okay, we could create podcasts if you just want the MP3 or whatever it is. You can go through, create notes, and make pages for a blog post to promote your site, which talks about this stuff. You can use this for sales, where I go through and say, "Hey, we're going to have a discussion about a ClickBank product or an affiliate offer or this software or that software.
" This is something where, like, I used to have to pay people to be here in the office; we had to coordinate it. I mean, just last week, I got back from the ClickBank headquarters where we recorded a podcast live in the studio. It took four days; I had to fly there, we had to sit down, and have cameramen in the whole nine yards.
Now, you could create a podcast with three people, and you're the only person that's actually present. This is something that we've never seen before, and what this is about is repurposing content. Now, sometimes this will work in niches, and sometimes it won't; so I wanted to give you some notes on niches that will actually work.
Going through what I thought this would be good for is like finance, book reviews, and again, remember: if I could go through and give it some old finance books, maybe I go through and find some out-of-copyright books or something like that, which is cool, because then I can give them the links on my website, which gives them an excuse to go from the video to my website. Then I get some SEO from the website, and I can make a Pinterest about the top points of the book, and the whole thing just comes together beautifully in a way that will make you money. This is insane!
So, if we were to do finance book reviews, what we want to do is think about, "Okay, if I talk about all these finance books, or copywriting books, or maybe health books, or whatever it is, what is it that is going to make me money? " All right, finance stuff; obviously, you go into investing and safety and, you know, different products and refinancing and things like that, which pay a lot of money. We want to go through and look at that broader market and the affiliate opportunities, like M platforms and budgeting apps—the whole nine yards.
This is giving you the ability to make top-level content without having any other people. You could literally just have your microphone, your voice, and some information from the internet and make this work in a simple way. We can do news about AI job security; this is going to get huge!
Here are companies that are hiring people; here’s this company that's hiring, and this stuff, here’s news in the AI world, and the whole nine yards. This is crazy easy: government money websites, maybe there are different grants and things like that, freelance gig reviews, best credit cards for rewards, budget meal prep ideas, RV living, college survival tips, crypto for beginners, fitness over 50. We can see here that there are a lot of micro niches that lead to things that pay huge money.
The idea of being able to go into here with something like Notebook LM, join the conversation, record it, and actually get a three-person podcast where I can ask the questions—what I'm doing is I'm being the advocate of the listener. I'm saying, "Hey, guys, this is what I want to talk about; hey, what about that? What about this?
" This is insane, and it's on a closed ecosystem. So, the odds of the AI running amok and telling us crazy stuff are only if we feed it crazy stuff, like we give it what we want it to talk about. Boom, there we go!
So, we can get some really, really good output here and understanding about how things work. Going through and looking at these, I'll have this list of niches available over at airofitscoop. com, and you can start with these right away.
We'll have some more information over there as well, but when looking at how to promote this, it's actually very simple. I could promote these on YouTube; I can promote these on my blog; I can post the conversation in places where people have questions. Maybe they're talking about an Amazon product—did you know that right now, Amazon pays you to talk about products when people buy them on the Amazon platform?
Yeah, that's right! When you go over there and you look at an Amazon product, let's say. .
. We have, um, an Elgato product for, uh, streaming equipment. Right?
Let's say we have this one here. You're actually going to have videos and reviews where people are just showing how things work. So, let's say you have, you know, products in your house, and you can try them out.
You can actually make videos and images, and some of the ones with videos will actually pay you when people buy them based on the video. This is something that is getting us into a market that didn't exist before, and it's going to get better and better and better. Knowing how to use these tools now is key.
We can also promote this in other places—maybe a press release, maybe doing systematic video content, or Pinterest or Instagram. This is the kind of thing where, you know, you can make content fairly easily and get paid like crazy. The way you're going to get paid is with affiliate offers such as ClickBank, Offervault, MaxBounty, or even paid ad networks if you can put this content out there, and they allow monetization.
If you want to use your own voice, you can do that. AI voices—some of them do monetize, if done correctly. Now we can create some really, really good stuff and get paid through these platforms in a super simple way.
If you want to learn more about this awesome new tool, leave a comment below, and we'll talk more about how to use Notebook LM and the new podcast feature. I just wanted to come out here and show you how this works in a real-world way and how to use it to get content right now using this interactive mode over here and recording and different things like that. So, this is a game changer when it comes to making money online.
