Introduction:
Welcome to our step-by-step guide on how to create short marketing videos quickly/easily and make online profits using an AI software product called Pictory.ai. This tutorial will walk you through the entire process, from selecting a product or service to market to promoting your videos and earning commissions. Let’s get started!
Step 1:
Define the Product or Service You Want to Promote: Start by identifying a product or service that you are passionate about or that has a high demand in the market. I market Amazon Best Seller products, my business coaching skills and the Pictory.ai affiliate program (more on that later).
Identify Your Target Audience: Determine who your potential customers are and what they are looking for. This will help you tailor your marketing efforts effectively. This was easy for me because everyone shops at Amazon, and everyone wants to earn extra money!
Research Popular Niches: Look for trending products or services in various niches such as technology, beauty, fitness, and more.
Analyze Market Demand: Use tools like Google Trends, Amazon Best Sellers, and social media platforms to gauge the demand for different products or services.
Consider Your Interests: Choose something that you are genuinely interested in or have knowledge about. This will make it easier to create engaging content.
Step 2:
Use AI Applications to Write Your Video Script. There are several AI chatbots that can help you generate engaging scripts for your videos. Some popular options include Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, Meta.ai, and OpenAI ChatGPT. I use the Microsoft Edge browser which comes with Copilot but any of the chatbots listed above can work.
Here is a prompt I used to get Microsoft Copilot to write a script I could key into Pictory.ai to create a video to promote the MALLRACE Gaming Laptop:
On screen is the MALLRACE Gaming Laptop. It is on sale at 73% off. The current price is $399. Write a script for a Pictory.ai video to promote that gaming laptop. At the end have a call to action to visit amazon to learn more about the product at: https://amzn.to/3EeIdSI
Here is the script Microsoft Copilot wrote for me:

Here’s the Video that Pictory.ai produced from that script:
I have to admit I spent more than few minutes on this video. It was the first video I created and there is a learning curve. Plus, I spent quite a bit of time finding and resizing photographs as well. You may not be as picky as I am and I am already getting faster at creating these videos.
Here is another video from an article I wrote on my blog. I simply entered the article address in Pictory.ai (Guarding Secrets: The Art of Confidentiality in Workplace Coaching is the article) and clicked the Generate Video button. I then downloaded the video and posted it here. Pictory.ai wrote the words, found the pictures, and added the voice over and background music and I made zero changes to it.
It really can be that simple! Now if I were going to post that video online, I would change some of the pictures, delete a few of the scenes, modify some of the voice overs, and add some advertising slides. I mostly promote Amazon products AND of course the Pictory.ai software affiliate program. That would take me some time but once you get used to doing this you can turn out some pretty impressive videos rather quickly.
Pictory.ai has an affiliate program where you can earn from 20% to 50%, depending on the plan and the number of referrals. The beauty of this is once a referral is making money with Pictory.ai videos they will never stop paying the membership price and you will continue to earn for the life of their membership.
Pictory also has a free trial where you can create videos to see the product in action. You can even post those short videos on your social sites. Most of my videos are less than 2 minutes so that allowed me to make one short marketing video and one longer video. And post them. Then I upgraded!!
The Pictory.ai Starter Plan is $25/month that comes with 200 video minutes per month, access to 2 million royalty-free videos, and basic AI tools.
I prefer the Pictory.ai Professional Plan which costs $49/month. This plan includes 600 video minutes per month, access to 12 million videos, advanced AI tools, and 5 brand kits.
Step 3:
Type your Script/Story into Pictory.ai. Pictory.ai is an AI-powered platform that can transform a text script into a complete video with visuals, background music, and voiceovers. Here’s how it works:
Content Creation: Input your script into Pictory.ai, and the platform will generate the visuals, background music, and voiceovers for your video automatically.
Customization: Customize the video themes and topics according to your interests or business needs.
Automation: Pictory.ai handles everything from writing to editing to posting, allowing you to grow your online presence without spending hours making videos.
Here is a video that explains how to use Pictory.ai to create stunning marketing videos quickly and easily:
Posting Videos:
Once you have downloaded your video you will want to post it to as many social media sites as possible. I post videos to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X (Twitter), Pinterest, and Vimeo. I use a tool called Sensible to auto post to some of these sites. The Sensible single user price is $29/month currently, and they too have an affiliate program which will give you a second source of passive income.
