Sean Dollwet · 5 'Boring' Claude AI Businesses That Can Make You Rich In 2026 ↗

One of 5 ideas covered in this video

You write search-optimized blog posts for local businesses such as plumbers, dentists, roofers and HVAC companies so they show up on Google for searches in their town. Claude drafts the posts, you edit them so they don't read like generic AI content, and the business owner pays a monthly fee for a set number of posts.

The presenter argues local business owners know they need content to rank on Google but never have time to write it. He cites a writer, Travis Nicholson, who reported landing two clients in his first month at $300 and $500 per month, about $800 in recurring income from one weekend of outreach. His suggested start: pick one business type in your city, use Claude to write three free sample posts, find 20 to 30 businesses on Google Maps, and email them a package such as four posts a month for $400. He says the posts can be written with Claude in a couple of hours and calls this the fastest of his five ideas for beginners to learn.

Beginners who can write and edit clearly and are willing to do cold email outreach to local businesses.

Selling content to local businesses is a long-established service, and Claude can genuinely cut drafting time. The income example is a third party's self-reported result, not audited, and the presenter's mention of a friend earning a full-time income is anecdotal. Many agencies and freelancers already sell cheap AI-written blog content, and ranking depends on more than blog posts, so you need some real SEO knowledge to keep clients who expect results. The presenter himself notes it is a time-for-money service where lost clients must be replaced. He does not sell anything for this idea, though the video as a whole promotes his paid KDP mentorship.
