Full write-up & sources

What they did: Jaxon Poulton makes short AI videos to promote his habit-quitting app. One Instagram Reel, a ridiculous before-and-after of "quitting", reached 30M views but converted poorly because the app was not in it. He kept iterating so the app is part of the story, and now a 100,000-view video can outsell the 30M one. He makes everything in Higgsfield instead of paying for many separate tools.

Results: He reports a 30M-view Reel that brought in about $3,000 to $4,000, and about $7,000 in the last month on the side. The video has 69,429 views (YouTube, Oct 16, 2026).

Worth knowing: Views without your product in the story are wasted. Build the offer into the joke.
