AI Video Content for Local Businesses

AI-made video ads and social content packages for local restaurants, salons, boutiques and gyms

Video published Sep 20, 2026 by Kimberly Mitchell

Startup cost: Low startup cost (an AI video tool subscription) (our estimate; the video doesn’t give figures)

What It Is

You use AI video tools to make short promo videos and social posts for local businesses that are recycling old stock images or posting nothing, and sell complete content packages, for example for a new business's launch.

The Pitch

Kimberly says small businesses spend hundreds of dollars a month on marketing, often on stale content you can now make in minutes, and calls this the opportunity 'almost nobody is talking about'.

Who It’s Best For

Creative people comfortable approaching local owners.

The Truth (as we see it)

No earnings are shown. Local owners can be wary of AI-made content, so show samples. The video is sponsored by Pollo AI, the video tool she demonstrates.
