How a $297 Video Outsold $10K Coaching Funnels

She had burnout, $297, and one shot. Here’s what worked — and why it sold out in 2 days.

Let’s be honest: most small business video ads don’t sell.
They ramble. They beg. They use fancy transitions, throw in some royalty-free music — and nothing happens.

No leads. No DMs. No “sold out.” Just silence.

Here’s what actually works.

👩‍💻 The Client

A coach came to me mid-launch. She’d spent weeks prepping an offer — but was out of energy, money, and hope.
All she had left? $297 and a hunch that AI could help.

“Can you make something that actually connects?”
I said, “Absolutely. But it won’t look like an ad.”

🧪 What We Built (With AI)

We used just four tools:

  • ChatGPT – To write the script

  • ElevenLabs – For a warm, personal voiceover

  • Kling – To build the visual scenes (use link for 50% bonus credits your first month)

  • LALAL.ai – To strip music stems for cinematic mood

Here’s the 4-part structure we used:

1. Open with Truth

“You’re not lazy. You’re just exhausted.”

2. Show the Struggle
Quick cuts of burnout moments: unopened emails, cold coffee, mental fog

3. Flip the Script
Reframe: “It’s not your fault. But it is your time.”

4. Invite With Clarity

“Join the reset. 6 spots left.”

📈 The Result?

  • 23,000 views

  • 300+ comments

  • 43 coaching seats sold

  • Just 1 revision

  • $297 ad cost

That’s a 34X return.
From one 59-second video.
