How I Cut My Editing Costs in Half and Got 90% of My Time Back With This Ai Workflow I Ep 172


Listen Later

Let’s face it… editing can feel like a never-ending time suck, but the thought of learning new tech (or letting go of control) can also be downright scary. But what if you could save 50-60% of your editing time, cut your outsourcing costs in half, and finally have space for the things that light you up? 

In this episode, I’m sharing my honest, two-year journey with Imagen AI – from total skeptic to full-on convert. I’ll break down the real numbers, the workflow tweaks, and the mindset shifts that helped me reclaim my time, energy, and joy – so you can, too.

In this week’s episode you’ll discover:

  • How I trained Imagen AI (without adding any extra editing to my plate) 

  • Why I still use a human editor alongside Imagen AI and how the combo actually saves me more time and money

  • My exact editing workflow after 2 years of using Imagen AI 

  • The mindset shifts that helped me stop procrastinating learning about AI and finally incorporate it into my outsourcing workflow 

  • Why starting NOW (even mid-season) is the smartest move for your future self 

  • The real cost of outsourcing with Imagen AI vs. doing it all yourself with exact numbers from my business (including how much I pay my human editor) 

  • How to get 1500 free edits to try Imagen AI for yourself
