# Unlock Passive Income: A Step-by-Step Guide to Building Your Online Store with AI
Are you looking for a new way to make money online? What if you could set it up in less than 10 minutes, with no initial investment, and generate passive income from anywhere in the world? If I told you that it's achievable because I've personally tested it, would you seize the opportunity? Or would you dismiss it as a scam?
I'm willing to bet that if you invest just a few minutes of your time, you'll reconsider letting this chance pass you by.
## The Power of AI in E-commerce
This guide will show you how to leverage AI to build an online store within minutes. This store can then bring in consistent income by selling products you don't even own. You'll act as the middleman, connecting suppliers in China directly with your customers. Your profit will be the difference between the price you charge on your website and the supplier's cost.
Yes, this is dropshipping.
Traditionally, dropshipping involved building a converting website, identifying winning products, and finding reliable suppliers in China. Now, AI simplifies this entire process.
