Live, hands-on workshops where business owners, marketers, and creators make AI content, learn how to get it in front of people, and discover ways to turn those skills into revenue.
Bring a laptop — you will be building on it all weekend. We’ll bring the exercises, the prompts, and a team that helps you get the work done.
Hero VSL
Jeff’s twin sets up the problem; Chuck answers it from the garage.
This isn’t film school.
And it definitely isn’t another sit-there-all-day AI seminar.
Our promise
You won’t go home with notes about what AI might do one day. You’ll go home having done it.
In two days you’ll pick up somewhere between six and fifteen skills you have never used before:
And you’ll leave with Money Maps to point you toward $10,000 a month or more.
That last one is a path, not a promise. We’ll show you how people structure the offers, find buyers and deliver the work — but what it earns depends entirely on how much of it you actually do when you get home. Anyone who tells you otherwise is selling you something worse than a workshop.
Who’s teaching
So why should you follow either of us?
You shouldn’t.
At least, not because an AI-written sales letter tells you to.
Jeff and Ryan have each spent over 20 years selling. Between them, they’ve done over $40 million in sales.
That’s a claim. Look at the work behind it.
Jeff has been selling since 2003 — more than $25 million in products and services of his own, built across outsourcing, Facebook marketing and ecommerce, with a long run as a top-earning super affiliate along the way.
He launched the first Social Profit Academy a decade ago and held 15 events around the world. People loved those events because they made progress in the room and went home with results that might otherwise have taken weeks or months to create.
Today he runs Smairt AI and builds Facebook pages across dozens of micro-niches — one of them past 1.4 million followers. He tests everything on his own accounts first: his newest page crossed 10,000 followers as the pilot for the methods you’ll be using in this room.
AI won’t replace people. People who use AI properly will replace the people who don’t.
Ryan has spent more than twenty years on the other side of the same problem: what actually makes someone act. He learned it inside a direct-response operation turning over nine figures in profit, and then spent two decades testing it everywhere the answer might change — direct mail, affiliate, SaaS, e-commerce, paid ads, local business.
It did not change. He became a leading JVZoo vendor, launched a SaaS that took more than 10,000 subscriptions in five days, partnered with Kevin Harrington of Shark Tank, and helped build a major Amazon supplement brand.
For the last three years he has been putting AI to work inside businesses he actually operates — content, advertising, video, lead generation, follow-up, automation, software. That is the difference worth caring about: he is not going to teach you AI theory for two days. He is going to show you what he uses, and then help you build with it.
My career went from stamps and envelopes to prompts and AI agents. The technology changed. Human psychology didn’t.
Together, they’ll show you their work, explain the business behind it, answer your questions, and help you make something yourself.
Watch them teach. Then decide whether you want to keep learning from them.
AI can write a flattering bio in eight seconds. It can’t stand beside you and help you finish the exercise.

The format
Russell Brunson made Funnel Hackathons a thing. We’re doing the same kind of roll-up-your-sleeves work with AI content.
We call it a Viral Hijackathon.
You’ll find content that’s already getting attention. You’ll study the hook, pacing, visuals, and idea behind it. Then you’ll use what you learned to make something original for your business, a product, or a client.
You’re not stealing someone’s video and slapping your logo on it. You’re learning from a pattern that works—then making your own.
Don’t spend six weeks staring at a blank screen waiting for inspiration.
Find the pattern. Hijack the lesson. Make your version.
Then learn how to make money with the skill.
Why this is different
You know the routine.
Three days. Four to six speakers a day. Everybody has a breakthrough to share and something to sell.
You take notes until your hand hurts. You miss a session because you’re exhausted. You miss another because two speakers you wanted to hear are on at the same time.
Then you fly home with a notebook full of ideas.
What did you build?
What can you open on your computer and show a business owner? What can you use? What can you sell?
That’s the question behind this event.
At the Viral Hijackathon, we’ll show you what to make, demonstrate how to make it, and give you time to build your own version. Jeff, Ryan, and the team will walk the room while you work.
If you get stuck, raise your hand. If your first result isn’t right, we’ll help you improve it. We’ve built time into the schedule to help you finish.
You’ll go home with more than notes about what AI might do.
The opportunity
Your own business
Create content for your own business.
Local businesses
Walk into a local business with examples on your laptop and offer to make content for them.
Product video
Make product videos with AI characters that present without you on camera.
Ads that run
Develop ads — the angle, the creative, the copy, and the call to action.
Products & software
Sell digital or physical products, or build a simple software tool around a problem a customer needs solved.
Platform monetization
Facebook, YouTube, TikTok and Instagram all pay creators whose content performs. Your AI video is what earns it.
You could create content for your own business.
You could walk into a local business with examples on your laptop and offer to make content for them.
You could make product videos, develop ads, sell digital or physical products, or build a simple software tool around a problem a customer needs solved.
Or you could get paid by the platforms themselves. Facebook, YouTube, TikTok and Instagram all share revenue with creators whose content performs — and AI video is how you feed them without filming anything.
Throughout the workshop, we’ll talk about who buys this work, what you could deliver, and how people price it.
Want to build an AI content business toward $10,000 a month? We’ll show you how people structure the offers and do the work so you can understand the path and choose where to start.
Buying a ticket won’t make you $10,000 next month. Learning to create something useful, finding buyers, and delivering it consistently is the work. We’ll help you get started on that work.
Skill level
Yes. This workshop is built for beginners.
Maybe you’ve tried ChatGPT or Claude a few times. Maybe you’ve avoided AI because every explanation turns into a pile of technical terms. Maybe you’re still skeptical and want to see for yourself what these tools can actually do.
You don’t need to know what GPT or MCP stands for before you arrive.
In each working session, you’ll see the finished result first. We’ll show you the steps, demonstrate the important parts, and give you a tested prompt you can copy from your digital workbook. Then you’ll make your own version with help in the room.
You don’t have to learn all of AI in two days. You need to make a few useful things and learn how to make them again.
Advanced prompters, you’ve been warned: If you already make AI videos, ads, and software all the time, the early exercises will probably feel basic. This workshop is built to get beginners moving.
What you’ll be using
Every exercise over the two days runs inside Viral Hijack. So it’s worth explaining what it is and why we built it.
If you’ve tried making AI video before, you’ve probably met the alternatives. Higgsfield. OpenArt. A dozen others. You sign up, you log in, and you’re looking at fifty choices across nineteen underlying platforms, each burning credits at a different rate, most of them priced for a studio.
Most people close the tab inside a minute. Not because they couldn’t learn it — because nothing told them where to start.
Viral Hijack was built for marketers and business owners instead of for engineers. Fewer decisions, clearer paths, and a lot less money per video. You come in with an idea and leave with a finished asset, rather than spending your first hour deciding which of nineteen engines to gamble on.
That doesn’t make it a toy. There’s enough under the hood to hold the attention of people making genuinely good short-form and long-form AI work — the difference is that the depth is there when you want it, not standing in the doorway on your first day.
Almost nobody has seen this yet.
A small handful of people have been let into Viral Hijack so far. Everyone in the room gets it for both days, with 2,500 credits on the account and the people who built it standing next to you while you use it.
These two days are where we debut it properly. You’ll be among the first people outside that handful to put it to work.
The schedule
The six main teaching sessions are 90 minutes each, for nine hours of guided instruction and practice.
We’re planning roughly 30 to 45 minutes of hands-on work per session, plus a dedicated one-hour Day 1 build and catch-up clinic. That gives you an estimated four to five and a half hours to build, practice, and get help.
There’s also orientation, the 12-month roadmap session, questions, and closing time.
Here’s what you’ll work on.

Working sessions
We start by making things.
You’ll explore Viral Hijack’s Prowler to find content that’s already getting attention. You’ll pick a video, study what makes it work, and use the Hijacker to develop an original idea of your own.
Then you’ll make a short video using a master prompt, create an image in Painter, and try making music.
By the end of the session, you’ll have made something instead of watching somebody else make it.
Picture Claude wired directly into Viral Hijack, the two of you kicking an idea around until it’s good.
Then Claude writes the prompts. The video prompts, the image prompts, the lot — and builds the thing with you, inside the platform, while you talk it through.
That’s VH Connect. (The plumbing is called an MCP. You will never need to think about that again.)
No more hunting for a prompt someone posted, pasting it in, and hoping. No more pounding your head on the desk because the result came back wrong and you’ve no idea which word to change.
This is the part that makes AI fun again.
Think about the businesses near you that rarely post anything worth stopping to look at.
You’ll create content around a real business and offer. We’ll show you how to think about the customer, the message, and a repeatable service you could sell.
Instead of walking into a business and saying, “I do AI,” you’ll be able to show them what you can make.
You’ll explore AI-designed T-shirts and simple digital products, including a $27 product concept.
You’ll also create TikTok Shop-style and Amazon-find-style video concepts with AI characters that can present a product without you having to stand in front of a camera.
Jeff and Ryan will break down the T-shirt system they used to generate over $1 million in sales in under a year, then show how AI makes parts of the creative process easier today.
Making content is one job. Getting it in front of people is another.
You’ll work on the Facebook Page first. Then you’ll use AI to develop an ad around an offer: the angle, creative, copy, and call to action.
You’ll leave with assets and a campaign plan you can review and use. If your account is ready, you may be able to take the setup further during the workshop.
Two days will give you a start. Continued practice is how you get better and begin selling with confidence.
We’ll map out ways to keep creating content, developing offers, finding customers, and building on the skills that interest you most.
We’ll also explain the optional ways to continue learning and working with us after the event. You’ll see what’s included, what it costs, and decide whether it fits.
Yes, you’ll build a simple piece of software.
Jeff will take a business problem, describe the solution to AI in plain English, test what it makes, and talk it through changes. Then you’ll use a guided exercise to make a small working tool yourself.
You do not need to know how to code.
We’ll also discuss how a tool like that could be used inside your business, sold as a custom project, offered as a lead magnet, or developed into recurring revenue.
Session 7 demo
A simple business tool, from problem to working screen.
Bring your questions. Bring the thing that needs one more fix. Bring the business problem you’ve been wondering whether AI can solve.
We’ll demonstrate useful requests, help clear up blockers, and help you decide what to work on first when you get home.
Stay for the finish. Don’t book a flight that makes you miss it.
Getting paid
After the exercises, we’ll talk about ways the skill could earn money.
Who could buy it? What would you give them? Could you charge for a project, a monthly service, a license, or ongoing management?
You’ll hear different ways to earn from content, product videos, advertising assets, local-business services, and simple software. You’ll start identifying the kind of offer you want to make first.
We’ll also show you a practical virtual-assistant hiring process for when you need help delivering the work: write the job description, test whether applicants follow instructions, narrow the field, and interview your top three.
The hiring plan: post the job Friday, aim to hire the following Friday, and have your new team member start Monday.
In the room
We’ve planned time for you to work and time for you to catch up.
Jeff, Ryan, and the team will circulate during the exercises. You’ll have a printed workbook and a digital version containing prompts you can copy, paste, and customize.
You won’t need to photograph every slide or piece together half a prompt from notes after you get home.
Every attendee receives 2,500 workshop credits to make videos, images, and other assets across both days.
Use them. Try things. We’ll be there to help.
If you use them all completing the exercises, we’ll add 500 more credits.
Your credits switch on the morning of Day 1 and expire the day after the event ends. Everything you create stays accessible inside your Viral Hijack account.
These examples show what’s possible. You won’t become an expert AI filmmaker in a weekend—that takes practice. You’ll learn enough to start making useful content and discover what you want to learn next.
Plan your travel
The night before
Join us at the bar for snacks, drinks, and introductions. Meet the people you’ll be working beside. Don’t hide in your room.
Day 1 and Day 2
The workshop days. Meals during the event are included.
Night of Day 1
The optional VIP dinner. Swap Day 1 stories and successes with Jeff, Ryan, and other attendees who want more time together. The VIP dinner is priced separately.
The day after
Fly home. That way you’ll get both full days, including the software build and final demos.
A working laptop is required — not optional. Every session is hands-on, and without one there is nothing for you to build on for two days. Bring its charger, and check your charging port before you travel rather than at the venue. A tablet will not do the job.
The season
Fall finds. Halloween. Black Friday. Cyber Monday. Christmas.
This is the stretch ecommerce creators wait all year for. The feeds fill with products, buyers start shopping, and the people who are already positioned take swing after swing while the opportunity is hot.
Session 04 is where we cover it: how people find products worth selling, how an AI character presents one without you on camera, and what the offers around it look like. Session 05 is how you get it in front of buyers.
Then look at the dates on the buttons below.
Tampa is October 2nd and 3rd — the front edge of the quarter. Learn this that weekend and the entire holiday run is still in front of you.
The later stops teach exactly the same skills, and this season comes round every year. But if it’s Q4 of 2026 you want to be ready for, the October rooms are the ones that leave you the runway to use it.
The skill is the same in October and in January. The calendar is not.
Nobody can promise what your content will earn, and we won’t. You don’t need an earnings guarantee to understand that the holidays happen whether you’re ready for them or not.
Hear what they made and what it was like to do the work with help in the room.

The offer
Two-day business events regularly run $2,000 to $5,000. Most of that money buys you a seat facing a stage: six speakers a day, a notebook that fills up, and a flight home to a to-do list you never start.
We priced this at $997 because what we are selling is not stage time. It is the two days, the exercises, the prompts, the credits, and a team walking the room while you build — so the thing you take home is on your laptop, not in your notes.
Compare it to the cheaper option, too: months of watching other people make AI content while you wait to feel ready.
One seat · both days
$997
Up to 3 team seats at $497 each
Your $997 seat includes:
The value is what you can do when you get home.
You can keep watching other people make AI content and telling yourself you’ll start when things slow down.
Or you can put two days on your calendar, bring your laptop, and start with help in the room.
Before you book
No. The exercises are designed for beginners. If you’ve barely used ChatGPT or Claude, you’re in the right room.
No. We’ll explain the parts you need while you’re using them.
Probably not. If you already create AI content and software regularly, the early exercises will likely feel basic.
Yes. We’re planning roughly 30–45 minutes of hands-on work in each 90-minute teaching session, plus a one-hour Day 1 build clinic.
Raise your hand. The team will be walking the room, and there’s dedicated catch-up time built into the schedule — a full hour on Day 1 on top of the practice time in each session.
No. The software exercise starts with a business problem you describe in plain English and follows a guided process.
We can’t promise that. We’ll show you how people structure offers and work toward that goal, and you’ll practice making things you could use or sell. Your results depend on what you do afterward.
Meals during the two workshop days are included. The optional VIP dinner is priced separately.
A working laptop and its charger. This one is not negotiable — every session is hands-on, and there is nothing for you to do for two days without one. A tablet will not do the job. We’ll send an account-access checklist before the event.
Get one before you come. It does not need to be new or powerful — everything we use runs in a browser. A basic machine from Walmart or a second-hand shop, well under $500, will do everything you need in the room. If you can’t sort one out, tell us before you travel and we’ll talk it through rather than have you sit through two days unable to join in.
They switch on the morning of Day 1 and expire the day after the event ends. Your Viral Hijack account stays open — everything you created in the room stays accessible inside it.
We’ll present an optional way to keep learning and getting help after the workshop. You’ll hear the scope, price, and terms, and choose for yourself. You’ll receive the workshop training and exercises whether you join anything else or not.
