How I Use ChatGPT to Create Content and Make Money Online
Introduction
When people ask how I manage to post consistently, create courses, write blogs, and still run a business—my answer is simple: ChatGPT. This tool has become my digital assistant. It helps me save time, write faster, and stay focused. In this blog, I’ll show you exactly how I use ChatGPT to make money online, even if you’re just starting out.
Step 1: Content Creation for Social Media
Social media needs constant content. But writing from scratch every day is hard. I use ChatGPT to create ideas, captions, and hooks for my TikTok, Facebook, and LinkedIn content.
How I use it:
- I type prompts like: “Write a hook for a post about freelancing mistakes in Kenya.”
- I get 3–5 angles, choose one, and then rewrite it in my voice.
- This helps me stay consistent without feeling overwhelmed.

Step 2: Writing Emails and Landing Pages
When I run a class or launch a course, I need emails, payment reminders, and thank-you pages. ChatGPT helps me create those fast.
How I use it:
- I describe the product and audience.
- I ask ChatGPT to write a short welcome email or a clear sales page.
- Then I edit it to match my tone and pricing.
This helps me sell without hiring a copywriter.

Step 3: Creating Course Outlines and Lessons
All my courses start with ChatGPT. I use it to organize ideas, write lesson titles, and even draft scripts or descriptions.
How I use it:
- I ask: “What are the top 10 things beginners should learn in social media marketing?”
- ChatGPT gives me a clean list. I rearrange it and build my slides from there.
- This keeps my courses practical and structured.

Step 4: Blogging for SEO
I use ChatGPT to help generate blog ideas, draft outlines, and speed up writing. Then I revise each blog to make it sound like me, optimize for SEO, and add internal links.
How I use it:
- I ask: “Write a 700-word blog on why every Kenyan freelancer needs a website.”
- I structure it with H1–H3s, add keywords, and link to my courses.
- This boosts my website traffic—and my authority.

- Templates
How I use it:
- I describe my target audience
- I ask ChatGPT to generate a “lead magnet” or workbook
- I tweak the format and design it using Canva
Then I sell it through my WhatsApp, Instagram, or website.
