3 online evenings with Mark van der Eng

Build something with AI that you could sell

In 3 sessions you set up your own AI assistant, use it to build a small project (a name, a logo, a website and posts) and test it with real people. Everything happens on your own laptop, with free tools. Keep this page open during the sessions: all templates and prompts are here, with a copy button.

Before the first session

  1. Create a free account on ChatGPT (or use Gemini with your Google account).
  2. Create a free account on Canva.
  3. Think of 2 things you are good at, or 2 problems you see around you.

Session 1

Make AI work for you

Challenges with text and images. Set up an assistant that knows who you are. Pick your project.

Project ideas

Pick one in session 1. The top ones earn money fastest.

1. Service for a local business

Slănic gets visitors for the salt mine. Guesthouses, restaurants and shops need English menus, social posts, better captions or a simple website.

2. Personal service

Study material, CVs and cover letters, summaries, translations. Sell to classmates, parents and neighbours.

3. Digital product

Printable planners, colouring pages, study guides. Sell online. Slower: you need people to find it first.

4. Content page

A TikTok or Instagram page about one topic. Slowest to earn money, but you learn a lot.

See where you'll end up

This example was built with the same steps you'll follow: a service that puts local menus and Google Maps pages in good English.
