The AI Tools I Used To Go From Overwhelmed to More Profitable – In Less Than 30 Days
When I first launched my online business, I thought hard work was all it would take. I burned hours writing blog posts, tweaking landing pages, and watching endless “how-to” videos. But despite all the effort, my business wasn’t moving forward.
Eventually I started to make money but I still worked too many hours. It didn’t look like the “internet lifestyle” I heard so much about. I wasn’t traveling all over the world or driving exotic cars. It wasn’t because of lack of money (well maybe not having the cars) it was still from lack of time. Just like when I had a job. Something wasn’t right.
That’s why, about 3 years ago, when AI first came on scene, I was right there. I started using it and saw pretty much instant improvement. I like to write, so I never wanted AI to replace me, I just wanted a helping hand.
Using AI to brainstorm, set milestones, create content calendars and even create content outlines reduced my work day by about 70%.
Since then, I’ve never looked back. I keep finding, and creating, new AI tools to shorten my workday and my workload.
Now, I’m truly living the internet lifestyle. Free time to go places, hang out with family (still no exotic car though 🙂 )
The Reality of Online Business Overload
Running an online business means juggling:
- Content creation
- Funnel building
- Email marketing
- SEO
- Social media
Individually, each task seems manageable. But together, they can crush even the most motivated entrepreneur. I reached the point where I realized: working harder wasn’t the answer. There are only so many hours in a day and only so much bandwidth we can give to our business.
My Turning Point: The Power of Leveraging AI Tools
Shortly after seeing the power of these AI tools in building, scaling and running an online business, I thought others would benefit too. That’s when I created, and use, the Marie Grove Method—a system that combines smart strategy with AI-powered GPT tools that I created. Instead of trying to do everything manually, I put AI to work in three core areas:
- Niche Finder GPT – This tool helped me cut through the noise and choose a profitable niche aligned with both my interests and market demand.
- Funnel Builder GPT – In less than an hour, I had a complete funnel blueprint mapped out, ready to launch.
- Email Assistant GPT – Instead of agonizing over copy, I had a full nurture sequence written and scheduled in minutes.
What Changed in Just 30 Days
With those tools in place, the results came fast:
- Clarity: No more second-guessing what to write or where to focus.
- Consistency: I built a publishing schedule across Medium, Blogger, and YouTube—and stuck to it.
- Traffic: My AI-optimized articles started ranking, pulling in organic visitors.
- Leads: My funnel captured subscribers daily.
- Sales: My first affiliate commissions came through from emails I didn’t even have to write myself.
To be honest, I had been online for a long time when AI came out. I had many of these systems in place already. Even so, these AI tools (I created some GPTs just for certain tasks. If you don’t know what a GPT is, you can read about it here) still made everything faster and they allowed me to build new income streams. Something I never had the time for before.
Why This Worked
Here’s the big shift: a good system is more important than just hustle.
AI tools gave me leverage. Instead of reinventing the wheel every day, I finally had a repeatable system for:
- Generating content ideas
- Publishing consistently
- Driving traffic into a funnel that converts
This combination – AI + the Marie Grove Method framework, was the bridge between working too hard and not having the time to expand, and seeing my profit explode as I had more time to create and grow new income streams. I made more, created more income streams and worked fewer hours!
For those just starting out, or who have been at it for a little while but aren’t getting anywhere, these tools really are groundbreaking.
Final Thoughts
If you’re in that place where your to-do list is endless but your progress is invisible, don’t quit. You don’t need to double your hours, you need smarter tools.
The Marie Grove Method is built to help beginners escape overwhelm and fast-track to profitability using exclusive GPT tools designed for content, funnels, and email marketing.
