Hello,
Marlon here.
Did you know the same strategy that worked for a certain class of merchants in 1849 is working for a new class of sellers today — and it works even if you aren't an "AI Expert?"
Have you ever heard that you should sell a "new opportunity." But you draw a blank when you think about what that could be?
Do you see AI moving fast and want to be on the seller side of it instead of the buyer side?
It's Marlon here. And I have good news for you. No wait. Great news.
I've been doing this gig full time since 1997.
Back in 1994-1996, I was a speaker and a copywriter. And when the world wide web came along, it carried me to sales I never dreamed of.
The sales really took off.
Here's an example:
It Hit Me Like A Ton Of Bricks. Just Like In 1997, The Opportunity Isn't In Being A Consumer. The Opportunity Is In Being A Supplier Of Picks And Shovels To The "AI Gold Seekers"
The California Gold Rush started at Sutter's Mill on January 24, 1848 by James W. Marshall. Hundreds of thousands of people flooded into California chasing gold. Most of them found very little and went home.
But the people who sold the picks, the shovels, the denim jeans, the food, the maps, and the gear? Many of them built strong, lasting businesses. Because the gold seekers needed their stuff whether they found gold or not.
In fact, one of the best-known merchants in California at the time was Samuel Brannan who set up a store to sell gold prospecting supplies. And he walked through the streets of San Francisco holding up a vial of gold shouting "Gold! Gold! Gold from the American River!"
Samuel Brannan — One of the best-known merchants in California at the time
(Not an actual picture of Samuel Brannan)
As I was thinking about this and how MY CUSTOMERS could benefit from this same pattern, it hit me like a ton of bricks:
That same pattern is playing out right now — but instead of gold, the rush is for AI.
Millions of entrepreneurs, business owners, developers, consultants, and freelancers are flooding into the AI space right now.
They want to use AI to grow their businesses. They are actively looking for ways to do it. They are hungry for tools, systems, shortcuts, and guides that help them get there faster.
Not all of them will succeed with AI.
But every single one of them needs picks and shovels. And that is where you come in.
See, most everyone is on the BUYER side of the deal. They're in the AI store BUYING info and tools to help them use AI. Instead of being the OWNER of the store SELLING the info, the tools, the metaphorical picks and shovels to the AI Miners.
It's like 1997 ALL OVER AGAIN!
THE GOLD RUSH RULE: In every major technology boom, the people who built stable businesses were often not the ones chasing the gold. They were the ones supplying the chasers. You do not need to master AI.
BURN THIS IN YOUR BRAIN:
You need to master selling to the people who are trying to master AI.
The AI gold seekers are not one group. They are many different groups, each with different needs, different budgets, and different problems. The biggest mistake new sellers make is trying to sell to all of them at once. That produces nothing. Pick one group. Go deep. Own that niche.
It Sounds Good In Theory But The Devil Is In The Details:
- What kinds of picks and shovels do you sell? Where do you get them? Do you create them yourself? How?
- What are the main groups who will spend cold hard cash RIGHT NOW for picks and shovels? What are their pain points? What do they want?
- Where do you find these "AI Miners" and how do you get them into your "AI Tools Store"?
- How do you get them to buy? What do you charge?
- Is anyone else doing this? What prices are they charging? How do you get started? What can I offer if I'm just a beginner or not an expert?
Here's How I Solved This Puzzle And Brought In A Boatload Of Sales To My Own Business...
This didn't happen overnight.
I didn't just dive into AI but I dove in:
I spent too many hours researching and going down rabbit trails that led to nowhere.
NOT just about AI. But about what SELLS concerning AI. Who is buying? What are they buying? How much are they paying?
I had to dive deep to get the answers to these questions. Like my friend on the other side of the world doing well selling his AI angle to local businesses.
And I consulted with a high-end Mastermind group in St. Johns about ways AI could help "real world businesses" grow revenue.
Like a chain of newspapers, knee doctors, power supply wholesalers and many more.
And I experimented with creating and selling different products and tools about it or using AI. And even made my own software using AI. And "artifacts" that can be used as lead magnets or resold.
I pulled from my experience with the WWW Internet gold rush and the current AI gold rush and created a number of different "frameworks" of how to profit by selling picks and shovels to the AI Miners.
The one that I finally settled on applies to anyone selling to about any industry or kind of business. And even to you if you're just starting up or getting going.
After trial & error, using my 5-step AI Miner Framework, you'll also be able to help your family, friends, or colleagues who want to use AI to grow their businesses.
And now, you're about to tell the world the *Secret Sauce* that you use to finally help people of all types solve their problems using AI and get results.
Keep in mind, there's no guarantee of any specific result. Everyone is unique. What I CAN do is tell you about the Framework I developed to help you get the best results you can:
And that's why I'm so proud to present this to you:
Introducing
The AI MINER Method is a 5-step system for building a business around the AI gold rush without mining for gold yourself.
It shows you how to find the specific problems AI gold seekers are paying to solve, build a narrow digital product that solves exactly one of those problems, and sell it again and again to an audience that is growing every single day.
You don't have to be an AI expert. No code required. Just a focused product, a specific buyer, and a system that compounds as you build more — so month 3 looks nothing like month 1, and month 12 looks like a completely different business than you had when you started.
My AI MINER METHOD is different. Very different.
Here's why:
- Doesn't try to make money using AI — I don't use AI to make money. I serve everyone who is trying to use AI and can't figure it out.
- Pinpoints expensive frustration — The bigger their frustration, the more valuable the solution. The MINER Method teaches you to find the most expensive frustrations in the AI gold rush — then sell the solution.
- Upstream Positioning: In every gold rush, value flows upstream. The MINER Method puts you above the rush — where you serve every gold seeker whether they find gold or not.
- Narrow Shovel Principle: The more specific your product, the easier it is to charge a premium. MINER teaches you to build the narrowest possible shovel — and price it at the highest level buyers will support.
- The Picks and Profit Loop: Most online income is a treadmill. Stop running, stop earning. MINER builds a loop — where every product you sell generates demand for three more.
- The AI Tax Benefit: There is an invisible cost on every AI adoption attempt. MINER teaches you how to position yourself to collect it.
- Bottleneck Arbitrage: If I spend 4 hours building a tool, my buyer would spend 40 hours building the same thing. I sell them the 4-hour version for $97. That's not charity — that's arbitrage.
- The One-Wall Business: Don't build a course. Build a wall-remover. People pay urgently to get through walls. They think about journey products for weeks before buying — or never.
Here's The Secret Sauce That Makes The AI Miner Method Do Most Of The "Thinking" For You
The MINER METHOD is a 5-step business framework for building in the AI gold rush — and it is designed so that the hardest part of every step is already done for you.
Not with generic templates or vague advice, but with prompts so distinct and unusual I affectionately call them SHOVEL SELLER PROMPTS.
These amazing prompts do a lot if not most of the actual thinking: the market research, the product structure, the sales copy, the email sequence, the lead magnet, the monthly content plan.
You just show up with your niche or focus. And my SHOVEL SELLER Prompts help you with that also.
The SHOVEL SELLER prompts show up with the work. What normally takes months of trial and error — finding the right buyer, building the right product, saying the right thing to get the sale — compresses into a series of focused sessions where you fill in a few details, read what AI produces, and move to the next step.
The MINER Method does not just tell you what to do. It hands you the exact conversation to have with Claude at every step — so the business gets built whether or not you have ever built one before.
Make no mistake. These are not prompts that start a conversation. My SHOVEL SELLER prompts finish the job.
You'll Get The Complete One-Page AI-Tool Blueprint As A Fast Action Bonus
These are very cool and easy to make: A single HTML file that hooks up to Claude. It looks like a real SaaS tool. Priced in the $27-$97 range as a download or simple setup.
- Part One — Starter Tools ($7-$27): 10 specific tool ideas with target niches and price points — fishing trip planner, garden planner, pet symptom checker, stamp collection describer, ancestry story writer, and more.
- Part 2 — Premium Tools ($27-$97+): 8 higher-ticket tools — real estate listing writer, email sequence builder, eBay listing optimizer, legal document explainer, grant proposal assistant, and more. Plus the "3-filter" test for knowing when a tool can support premium pricing.
- Part 3 — Step-by-Step Build Guide: Gumroad, WarriorPlus, Etsy, and ThriveCart compared — which platform for which niche. A title formula, sample listing description, and three traffic methods (Facebook groups, YouTube demo video, email list).
- Part 4 — Marketing and Selling: The system tells you what NOT to build as clearly as it tells you what to build — which saves you from the most expensive mistake in this business, which is building the wrong thing for the wrong person.
- Part 5 — Scaling Up: The Tool Family Model, bundling, expanding niches, and the meta-product angle (selling the knowledge itself).
- The 5-day Quick Start Action Plan at the end gives you a clear on-ramp — an easy step-by-step way to get started creating and selling your own 1-page AI tools.

BONUS #5: Real Case Studies Of Scrappy Entrepreneurs Serving Everyone In The AI Rush — Illustrative Examples, Not Promises
It's one thing to say you can do this "in theory." But look at these illustrative examples (please keep in mind these are specific, non-typical cases and are NOT a promise or indication of what you will do):
— A spreadsheet creator built a well-known paternity-leave spreadsheet business targeting a specific professional niche.
— A Dutch programmer lives out of a backpack and runs a one-person "picks and shovels" business called "fire your photographer."
— Two childhood friends launched an AI-focused newsletter and had a successful acquisition after 17 months. They didn't build an AI tool. They just created a daily briefing...selling the map to the gold rush.
— Two French founders created an AI-powered tool. 18 months later they had a successful acquisition. It was about serving tool buyers in the AI rush.
— An Etsy shop sells AI prompt bundles. Another prompt seller built up steady sales over 60 days from a single prompt.
These full case studies and many others are in the bonus report to help you see what OTHERS are actually doing. They are illustrative only, not indicative of average results, and not a promise of what you will experience.
BONUS #6: How To Create And Sell Claude Code Skill Files Using AI
Claude Code is an AI tool made by Anthropic — the same company that makes Claude. It helps developers write and manage code faster. Developers use it to build software, apps, and automated systems.
A SKILL file is just a text file. Inside that file, you write out a set of instructions for how Claude Code should handle a specific task.
Think of it like a recipe card. You write down exactly what Claude Code should do, step by step, when it encounters a certain type of project or problem.
But you don't have to do this. AI will actually create the skill file for you WHEN you have the correct prompt.
Here is why this matters:
- Developers use Claude Code every day
- They need SKILL files to make Claude Code work for their specific industry
- Building good SKILL files takes time and expertise
- Many developers would rather buy a ready-made SKILL file than build one from scratch
- Very few people are selling them yet — which means the market is wide open
That's the opportunity. And you get a deep dive report explaining it very simply and showing how to create and sell Claude Skill files.
