900 segmentsSo guys, Google Gemini and Notebook LM
just dropped some new insane features
and hardly anyone is talking about them.
So in today's video, I'm gonna show you exactly
how they could potentially help you build up
a one-person side hustle from scratch.
So make sure that you stick around
to the end of this video
so that you can see exactly how it works.
So as you guys can see right here,
I'm already on the Gemini interface.
It's completely free to use
as I'm sure that you guys already know.
And if you don't know,
you're gonna be able to access it at gemini.google.com.
And the different features that I'm gonna show you
in today's video can help you
when it comes to driving traffic
to any type of product that you're thinking about
selling on the internet, whether physical or digital.
So I'm gonna start off with this first prompt that says,
give me a list of 10 active Shopify stores
that get free traffic by posting blog articles
within the pet niche.
And the reason why I'm going with this particular type
of one-person business is because,
as you guys can see over here,
this is a dropshipping store that I was able to build
using a AI store builder.
So all of these different products
that have been loaded onto the site,
I don't need to buy the inventory.
I didn't need to buy anything in bulk.
And there's also digital products available
for sale on this website as well.
So again, all of the features that I'm gonna show you
with Google Gemini and Notebook LM
can be applied to whatever type of one-person business
you're thinking about building up.
So we're gonna go with this prompt for now.
And this brings me onto one of the features
that you may or may not know.
If you just click into tools,
you're gonna see deep research over here.
And when you select this,
essentially you're telling Gemini
to scan the internet in detail
and come back with a full report on what you've entered.
So I wanted to come back with 10 Shopify stores
that are currently getting traffic
using Shopify blog articles
so that I know exactly what they're doing
for them to be successful
so that I can replicate it for myself.
But stick with me
because all of this is going to make sense.
So once I've selected deep research,
I'm just gonna click on submit.
And it should then come back
with this summary of what it's going to do.
So it's gonna tell you
that it's going to research the website,
it's going to analyze the results,
and then it's going to create the report.
And it could take a few minutes for it to do it.
So you're just gonna click on start research
when you're happy with anything that it's come back with.
Okay guys, so that took maybe two, three minutes.
But as you can see,
these are the different sites
that are currently getting free organic traffic.
So what I'm now gonna be able to do
is read through this report,
see exactly which stores it's listed,
the type of products they sell,
and just a lot of information.
But the thing is,
you don't need to spend time
going through every single company.
What you can do is just pick any one of them.
So let me pick this one over here.
And from here, what I tend to do
is just go through the site,
take a look at it,
see exactly how they've structured things,
look at their best sellers,
you know, look at their items.
We can see that they're selling products
from AliExpress, AutoDS,
and they're also selling
print-on-demand items as well.
And if I just go over to their blog page,
we can see that they're posting
all of these different Shopify blog articles
that Google Gemini has been able to identify,
is currently doing well on Google search.
And the reason why I'm able to confirm that
is because if I just click into SimilarWeb,
first and foremost,
we can see that the monthly visits
that this website is getting is over 180,000,
which is pretty decent.
And if we just scroll down over here,
we can see the main traffic source
is 58% through search.
And the majority of the traffic that they're getting
is with top-tier countries
like the US, UK, Canada, New Zealand, and France.
So yeah, that's one of the first initial steps
throughout this entire process,
which is to get this detailed report
to find all of these different sites
that are getting through organic traffic.
But once you get to this point,
what you want to do is click on share and export.
And then what you want to do
is just export it to documents.
What Gemini is then going to do
is send the document directly
to your Google Docs folder.
So this is it right here.
Again, you can get a better look,
but the whole point of this
isn't to read through all of this
because that's going to be pretty boring.
So what you need to do
is just click on file
and then click on download
and then click on PDF.
And once you've now got that PDF document,
the next step of this process
when it comes to being able to apply
all of these different winning blog articles
to your own site
so that you can get free organic traffic as well
is to go back onto Google Gemini.
You're going to click
into these three lines at the top.
From here,
what you're going to do
is see Explore Gems
and you're going to need to click into it.
And then from there,
this is the next page
that you're going to see.
Now, for those of you
that's not really sure
of exactly what a Google Gem is,
I've spoken about it
on a couple recent videos,
but I get a lot of messages
from people asking me to expand on it.
And it's basically a way
for you to create your own AI bot.
The way that Gemini works,
the way that ChatGPT works,
Claude, Perplexity,
all of these different AI tools
is that they're scanning the internet
and they're coming back
with answers to your prompts.
But when you build
your own Google Gemini gem,
essentially what you're doing
is creating your own AI assistant
that's always going to refer back
to the initial source document
you gave it.
And you're going to be able
to upload your source documents
in the section over here
that says knowledge.
And this is going to be really powerful
when it comes to producing
the best blog articles
that have the highest chance
of being ranked
in the Google search results.
So one of the first knowledge sources
that you're going to upload
is the PDF document
that we just got
with all of the competitors
that are posting
Shopify blog articles
that are getting ranked on Google.
So I'm just going to click
into add files.
Okay, so that's now been added,
but there's going to be
two other files
that you need to add
to make sure that
it's going to have
all the information it needs
when it comes to producing
the best quality articles.
The first thing that you need to get
is a full summary
of the store that you're running.
So of course,
in today's example,
I'm using this store over here.
And this is where
Notebook LM is going to come in
because what you can do
is copy the URL of your store
and then go over to Notebook LM.
You can find it
at notebooklm.google.
That's the URL.
You're going to click
on this button over here.
It's completely free to use,
by the way.
From there,
what you need to do
is click on create new.
And again,
this is going to work
in a very similar way
to the gem
that were created in Gemini
in the sense that we need
to upload a source reference
for it to refer to.
So you can either use
a PDF document,
audio file,
you can paste text,
you can use your Google Drive,
or what you can do
is paste a URL
from a website
or YouTube channel.
So I'm going to click
into this one
because I'm using
a Shopify dropshipping store.
And I'm going to paste
the URL in there
just like that
for the page
that has all of the products.
And I'm going to do
the exact same thing
for the homepage
and then I'm going to click
on insert.
Okay, perfect.
So for me to get
a detailed report
of the store
that I've built
in terms of all of the products
and everything like that
when it comes to the prices
so that the gem
has all of the details
of my store.
The way that I can do that
and the way that you can do that
once you're in Notebook LM
is click on reports
on the right hand side.
And then you're going
to come over here
to create your own
and then just click on
this one
and paste in this prompt.
So what I'm going to say
is give me a full report
on my store
including the products
I am selling with prices.
Of course you can be
a lot more detailed than this
but I'm just showing you
how all of this works.
So once you've entered this in
you're just going to click
on generate
and right there
as you can see
it's now generating the report
and this again
should take maybe
two to five minutes
but as soon as it's done
I'm going to be back ASAP.
Okay guys, so I'm back
and I talk about
five minutes as I said
and here we go
I've now got the full report
on my store
it's breaking down everything
it's breaking down
the type of store
the type of customers
I'm going to get
the payment methods
the total products I have
the ones that are in stock
the ones that are out of stock
the highest price
the full list
of different products
and just everything
that the gem needs to know
when it comes to
helping me get traffic
in the best possible way.
So what you need to do
from this point
is just copy
the entire report
just like this
and go over to
a blank Google document
and you're just going to
paste everything in there
just like that
and again you don't need
to bother yourself
too much with reading
everything word for word
because Notebook LM
does a good job
of making sure
that everything is included
but if there's anything
extra that you might
want to include
this is the point
that you're going to do it.
So I'm just going to
do the exact same thing
I'm going to click on file
and I'm going to click
on download as a PDF
and then I'm going to go
back to the gem
that we're working on
and I'm going to come over
to the knowledge section
I'm going to click on
add files
and then upload it
just like that
so that's two out of three
files that you need
to give your Google gem
the next thing
that you need to do
is now get the URLs
for all of the different
products that's been
added to your site
and before I forget guys
when it comes to
building your own store
that you can load
digital products
physical products
items that you don't
need to ship out yourself
that you can automate
when it comes to
traffic methods
with the help of AI
you're going to be able
to get your store built
with this AI store builder
and I'm also going to
leave a completely
free course down below
this free course
took me two months
for me to build
I would say I was
working on it
at least a couple hours
every single day
so even though
it's a free course
it doesn't mean
that the information
in it isn't good
you know I made sure
to give you all of the steps
all of the clicks
that you need to take
when it comes to
building up your own
online brand
so be sure to check
the out top link
in the description
so that you can get
your own store built
in the most effective
way possible
so when it comes
to getting all of
the different products
that's been added
onto my site
in terms of the URLs
the way that I can do
that is by going
onto the back end
of my Shopify account
and you can copy
exactly what I'm
about to do
if you've already
got your Shopify
account as well
and the tab that you
need to click on
is products
on the left hand side
and as you can see
these are all of
the different products
on my store
so a lot of these
I didn't need to add
myself
AutoDS is the software
that automatically
added them
and connected them
to drop shipping
suppliers
so what I can do
from here
and what you need
to do
when it comes to
getting all of
your different products
URLs
is just click
on export
then what you need
to do is click
on all products
export it as a CSV
and then click
on export products
once again
and then simply
go to the gem
that you're building
upload the export
file that you
would have received
and as you can see
I've just done
that right now
so I've got these
three different
sources
and all of this
is going to be
really powerful
when it comes to
again helping you
get traffic
onto your store
so you just need
to complete
the rest of this
just insert the
name description
and the instructions
so for the name
and the description
I'm just going
to enter
pet store blog
AI assistant
and I'm going
to do the exact
same thing
for the description
and for the instructions
this is where you're
going to enter
the prompt
and I've just told
it something along
the lines of
its job is to
research and produce
high quality blog
articles that have
a high chance of
being ranked in
the Google search
results and I've
told it which
documents I've
attached to it
so that it knows
and from there
all you need to
do once you've
tailored it to
whatever store
you're running
is to click on
save
okay perfect
so that's been
successful
it's been created
I'm just going
to click on
start chat
and as you can
see we've now
got our own
customized Google
Gemini
that's going to
refer back to
all of the
details of the
store that you're
running so that
you can get
accurate answers
but for me to
make sure that
it's working as
it should
I'm just going
to enter in
this prompt
I'm just going
to say give
me a full list
of the products
on my store
and URLs
the only reason
why I'm typing
this in is
because I want
to make sure
that it actually
knows what
products I'm
selling
and it has
the correct
URLs as well
because this is
going to play a
big role when it
comes to us
generating traffic
so I'm just
going to click
on submit
all right so
it seems to
have done a
really good job
of getting
all of the
data making
sure that it's
giving me the
right product
title as well
as the URL
from my store
so I can now
click into any
one of these
different links
let me just
click into a
random product
to make sure
that it's
actually working
okay so it's
definitely working
as it should
because as you
can see it's
taking me
directly to my
website
so now that I
know that it's
working the next
prompt I'm going
to enter is this
one that says
which products on
my store will
perform best using
Shopify blog
articles give me
the top 10
products that will
do well on
Google search
it's going to
enter this in
because I want it
to let me know
out of all of the
products that I'm
selling which one
has a high chance
of being purchased
when people are
searching for
information about it
within Google search
I'm just going to
click on submit
okay so once
again it's now
come back with
the top 10
products for me
to get organic
traffic and the
top product is
this one let's
just click into
the link so that
you guys can take
a look and see
exactly what
product it is
okay so this is
the product right
here this is what
it looks like and
this is the one that
Gemini believes will
perform well and
what's really
interesting for those
of you that don't
know that hasn't
enrolled into my
free course yet this
was actually the main
product that it
came back with that I
should focus on
selling based on the
search data at the
moment there's a lot
of people searching
for information about
this product and that
opens up a good
opportunity when it
comes to producing
Shopify blog articles
because the more
articles I'm able to
produce for this
product I'm going to
be able to drive a
bunch of traffic to
this landing page but
now that I've got an
idea of which product
is going to do well
within the search
results when it comes
to producing blog
articles I'm just
going to enter this
prompt over here that
says what are the top
10 articles that will
do well for this
product I'm just
going to copy the
name of it paste it
in there so that it
knows exactly what I'm
talking about and
then click on submit
okay guys so that took
a little bit longer
than what I expected
but it's now come back
with a range of the
top best articles that
I should generally
produce for the range
of different products
on my store so from
this list I'm now
going to be able to
pick whichever one I
want to go with so
let's just go with the
first one in the list
which is this one I'm
going to copy the
title just like this and
I'm going to paste it
in there just like
that and I'm also
going to enter in this
prompt where I'm
basically going to tell
it to write out the
entire article word for
word I want it to give
me 1000 words I've
given it a lot of
details in terms of
make sure to use the
correct headings the
correct formatting the
correct color coding
color scheme make sure
that it's HTML as well
and you're going to see
exactly how powerful this
is going to be in a
moment so you can tailor
this prompt in any way
that you want depending
on what products you're
selling so I'm just
going to enter in one
other thing I'm just
going to say make sure
that it's educational so
this is the prompt I'm
going to use and I'm
just going to click on
submit and as we can
see it's already writing
out the entire article
so again it's going to
come back as HTML don't
worry about that you
don't need to code or
anything all you need to
do is wait for it to
finish shouldn't take
more than a few seconds
and once it has
finished all you need to
do is just copy the code
just like that then
you're going to go to the
back end of your
Shopify account and come
over to add new blog
post you're going to
find it on the content
on the left hand side
and then blog post over
here so all you need to
do is click on show
HTML paste the code in
there just like this
insert the title of the
article as well you then
need to get a main cover
image using the gem that
you've created and the way
that you can do that is by
clicking on tools come
over here to create
images and just enter in
this prompt which is now
give me a main cover image
for this blog to upload
directly to Shopify that
relates to this article
let me just click on
submit once again okay
so let's come back with
this image you know just
as an example I'm going
to use it it looks pretty
decent so what I'm going
to do is just download it
I'm then going to upload
the image just like that
and click on save and
there we go guys just
like that as you can see
on the website the blog
article is now ready for
people to read it's been
formatted in an amazing
way you know everything is
structured it's got all of
these different sections
all of these different
color codes you know
everything looks pretty
decent and it's going to
be placeholders where you
can also upload an image
that you can generate
directly from your Gemini
gem as well and the best
part about all of this is
that this article that has
been produced by Google is
going to link directly to
the product that is
promoting when someone
clicks into the link it's
going to take them
directly to the product
page so yeah I'll
definitely say that this is
a interesting way of being
able to use Google Gemini
to help you with a one
person side hustle once
you've got your business
set up which you can do
fairly easily again free
course link down below

able to use all of these
organic articles to help

not saying that it's going
to happen overnight and
I'm not saying that this
is the only form of
traffic that you should
use but because we're
using a Google AI product
to research the article
and even write the
article there's a high
chance that these
different articles are
going to do well in the
