Use Claude to rewrite an old resume into an ATS-beating, job-tailored version — $200-500 each, bundled with a LinkedIn rewrite as a package
The 2026 job market is brutal, huge numbers of people need a resume, but most have no idea how to write one that gets past AI screening systems — Claude takes an old resume + a job description and produces, in 20 minutes, an ATS-tailored version that beats 95% of the people in line.
Fewer bars = easier, cheaper, or faster for an AI-assisted solo builder. Editorial judgments based on the case details.
Shane admits this is the most boring entry in the whole episode, the one nobody likes to talk about, but the numbers are brutal. Resume and LinkedIn-profile optimization — and career coaching more broadly — is one of the most profitable niches he's ever seen. He can't even count how many of his own clients and students have made absurd money in this niche. The real name he cites is Davis — an entire management-consulting business started right here: Davis initially just helped people fix their resumes, then turned it into a YouTube channel, then built out a complete system that could both fix resumes and genuinely help people land management-consulting offers, and today most of that business runs on autopilot. The path itself is a template: enter through an extremely plain service (fixing resumes), amplify with content, then upgrade into a higher-value, systematized business.
Davis is the one documented path here, and the order he went in matters: he fixed people's resumes first, one at a time, and only turned that into a YouTube channel afterwards. Nobody starts with an audience.

Data credibility: The video cites Davis — who started with resume optimization and built it into a management-consulting business — as proof of the model; the $28K/mo is the creator's arithmetic projection from $200-500 each x 10 a week, not proven for this side hustle, so it's logged as potential. All revenue figures are founder-reported or estimated by the video creator — unaudited.
The first payment in a service like this is usually $200 for a single resume from somebody one degree away: a friend who just got cut, a commenter whose free teardown landed, a bootcamp graduate sent over by a career office.
Growth stops depending on outreach at the point where the work itself produces the marketing. Davis shows the shape: resume fixes became a YouTube channel, the channel became a full system for landing management-consulting offers, and most of it now runs on autopilot.
The structural problem with this niche is that the result being sold arrives late. A client gets the rewritten resume on Tuesday, applies across the following week, and learns whether it worked four to eight weeks later.
