Use AI tools to mass-produce logos, brand kits, and product visuals, and take on the more systematic branding projects — priced on value, not per image.
Dan grades it B-tier, ranked below copywriting: “Copy sells money, branding sells identity — some people value it, but it lacks the longevity I want.” Long term, most people will simply ask AI themselves.
Fewer bars = easier, cheaper, or faster for an AI-assisted solo builder. Editorial judgments based on the case details.
[Video] Dan: use AI to generate logos, brand kits, and branded product mockups. The tools are Nano Banana and Manus, and you can charge for the more systematic branding projects.
The portfolio comes before the client, because the tools now let you finish the work without one. Dan Martell's own reference point is a website he designed with AI, animation and effects included, that he would previously have paid $100,000 to have built.

Data credibility: ⚠️ An opportunity direction, not a specific company; Dan calls the economics “middling” and gave no pricing. All revenue figures are founder-reported or estimated by the video creator — unaudited.
Dan's framing is that you charge what people think it is worth, which makes the client's alternative quote the actual pricing instrument. Set against an agency bill they have already been quoted, a fixed-price package delivered in days reads as cheap, and that gap is where the first payment sits.
Nobody buys a second logo, so this flywheel has to be built rather than waited for. The three turns that exist are all deliberate.
The risk in this business is erosion rather than silence. Dan's longevity objection is direct: he cannot picture a world where most people are not simply asking AI to design it themselves, telling it to make the thing look like Apple designed it.
