A content clipping service takes long-form videos from influencers, edits them into viral shorts, and charges only for guaranteed views. Send 100 DMs daily to land clients, deliver a few million-view clips, then scale fees and retainers on the back of proven results.
After making millions of dollars on the internet, if I had to start over from scratch, this is exactly what I would do. Content clipping is the future for marketers, especially people that are just getting started. All you have to do is take a bigger influencer, someone that's dumping a lot of resources into marketing. Usually they'll have big YouTube channels or whatever the case is. Take their long-form content, make it short-form, and then prove that you can consistently go viral. The beauty of this strategy is that they don't have to shoot any videos, meaning if you're clipping from their long-form, they don't have to spend any time at all with you. All they need to do is pay you. Pay you for results. That's it. And this is so beautiful for the entrepreneur because 9 times out of 10, they already have a marketing system. They're already making content. So when it comes to clipping the content, you're not spending any of their time. Rich people, they don't care as much about money as they do their time, right? So if they're like, you know, you got to sit there and you got to make 10 pieces of content and they got to spend 3 hours doing that, or whatever the case is, it's a headache to them. Now, if you don't have an actual, you know, person to do that with and you want to get paid instantly, it's very simple. This is what you do. You send out 100 DMs a day, nonstop, to different influencers, different business leaders, until somebody gives you a shot, okay? Once they pay you interest or whatever the case is, you know, they're actually listening to what you say. You make some reels for them and you guarantee the end result. You tell them something like, I will not get paid until I get you this many views. And if you could do that, you can start building your portfolio. As you build your portfolio, let's say you brought this guy to a million followers or a million views or whatever the case is, then you can start asking for more, right? You have leverage. You can ask them for money ahead of time. You could ask them for higher pay on the views. You could ask them to pay you a consistent retainer. What you need to do is get paid for the results that you produce. And if you do that, then you can start slowly but building your credibility in the industry.
