Are you ready to transform your side hustle dreams into a thriving passive income stream? Join us on the AI Paycheck podcast as host Raje sits down with the incredible Marcus Reed, who leveraged artificial intelligence to generate over $40,000 in passive income last year—almost entirely from AI-designed coloring books sold through Amazon KDP!
Marcus pulls back the curtain on this straightforward yet powerful online business model. Discover how Amazon KDP’s print-on-demand service allows you to publish books without ever touching a physical product, earning royalties while Amazon handles printing, shipping, and customer service.
In this engaging episode, you’ll learn:
  • Why coloring books are a goldmine for passive income: High demand for stress relief (adults) and kids' activities, plus the visual nature perfectly suited for AI generation, eliminating the need to be an artist.
  • The complete step-by-step process: From identifying profitable niches and performing essential keyword research directly on Amazon, to mastering AI tools like MidJourney for stunning image creation.
  • Crafting irresistible coloring pages: Get Marcus's expert tips on using precise MidJourney prompts for "line art drawing," "simple outlines," and "no shading" to produce professional-quality, clean images perfect for coloring.
  • Beyond AI generation: Learn crucial post-production steps including image cleanup, resolution enhancement with tools like Upscale.media, and vector conversion using Inkscape for truly professional results.
  • Assembling your masterpiece: How to use tools like Canva to lay out your book, including the non-negotiable tip of making every other page blank to prevent marker bleed-through—a vital Amazon KDP requirement.
  • SEO secrets for KDP success: Optimize your listings with powerful keywords, captivating titles, and compelling descriptions to make your books stand out in a crowded market.
  • Strategic pricing and scaling your business: Understand the sweet spot for pricing, how royalties add up (potentially $3 per book!), and Marcus's blueprint for building a catalog of books that generates consistent income.
  • Driving traffic to your books: Effective strategies including Amazon advertising and leveraging your existing catalog for cross-promotion.
  • Your first step to success: Marcus’s practical advice for getting started, emphasizing action over perfection and the power of momentum to build your AI side hustle.

If you're looking for a tangible way to harness AI for a genuine side hustle or expand your online business, this episode is a must-listen! Marcus's insights provide a clear roadmap to create and sell AI-generated coloring books on Amazon KDP, turning your creativity into consistent royalties.
