How to Run a Profitable One-person Internet Business Using AI - Ep. 14 with Ben Tossell

You can build and run a one-person internet business that earns half a million in annual revenue—with AI.

Ben Tossell showed me exactly how in this episode. Ben is the founder of Ben’s Bites—one of the best daily AI newsletters out there, which I love reading every day—and an investor in a number of promising early-stage AI startups. Ben is also an experienced founder whose no-code platform Makerpad was acquired by Zapier.

I think Ben is really good at starting profitable internet businesses that are sneakily big, but don’t require too many resources. Over the last couple of years, he’s assembled a war chest of AI tools including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Lex, and Supernormal to help him do this. In this episode, we get into the weeds of how Ben has integrated AI into his workflow to find new business opportunities, run them well, and evaluate their performance.

We get into:

  • How to use ChatGPT as a business strategist
  • Building your MVP with ChatGPT
  • Turning interview transcripts into compelling articles
  • Analyzing business data using AI tools
  • How to generate persuasive landing page copy with ChatGPT
  • Offload time-consuming tasks to AI

This episode is a must-watch for anyone who is curious about using AI to bootstrap a profitable internet business.
