From idea to launch

30-day action plan

  1. Week 1

    Define the channel and character

    • •Choose one audience, content promise and repeatable format; study ten relevant channels without copying their identity.
    • •For an AI influencer, create an original fictional character sheet covering appearance, wardrobe, voice and boundaries.
    • •Use only owned or licensed photos and voices; get consent for likenesses and review platform AI disclosure requirements.

    Deliverable: A channel brief, character/style sheet and ten episode ideas.

    Check: Each idea fits the same audience and can be produced within your weekly time budget.

  2. Week 2

    Produce three pilot videos

    • •Draft three scripts with distinct hooks and verify every factual claim.
    • •Turn a licensed reference picture into short clips; maintain consistent character details and inspect faces, hands and backgrounds.
    • •Edit captions, voiceover and music; check sound, contrast and pacing on a phone.

    Deliverable: Three finished pilot videos with captions and asset-license records.

    Check: Record production time and quality problems per video.

  3. Week 3

    Publish a controlled series

    • •Publish a small batch on a sustainable schedule and follow each platform's synthetic-media rules.
    • •Test one variable at a time, such as the opening hook, rather than changing the entire format.
    • •Track watch time, completion, saves and meaningful comments; reply without pretending the fictional character is a real person.

    Deliverable: A content log with links and performance observations.

    Check: Compare retention across similar-length videos, not just raw view counts.

  4. Week 4

    Test an ethical revenue path

    • •Create one relevant offer: an affiliate review, a digital product or a sample creative pack for a brand.
    • •Disclose affiliate and sponsored relationships clearly and make no unsupported earnings claims.
    • •Prepare a media kit using actual results; check platform eligibility before relying on revenue sharing.

    Deliverable: A sample offer, disclosure wording and a next-month content calendar.

    Check: Track qualified clicks, enquiries and audience feedback, not promised income.

Example deliverable

A batch of 10 short-form videos with a consistent visual template.

Pricing & validation

Sponsorship rates depend on niche and engagement. Track your numbers before quoting.

Picture-to-video shot prompt

Using my owned or licensed reference image of [character], write three image-to-video prompts for a [duration] clip about [topic]. Preserve [identity details and wardrobe]. Specify one simple action, camera framing, lighting and background per shot. Avoid scene cuts, extra people, warped hands and changes to identity. Include a visual inspection checklist.

Retention-focused script

Write a [length]-second script for [audience] about [topic], using these verified facts: [facts]. Structure: hook, context, three useful points, payoff and one relevant CTA. Return spoken lines, on-screen text and shot suggestions in a table. Avoid fabricated facts or fake first-person experiences.

Content performance review

Review this content log: [video topic, hook, duration, views, watch time, completion, saves, comments]. Identify patterns supported by the data, note small-sample limitations, and propose five new topics plus one controlled hook test. Do not assume views equal revenue.
