Angelo Labrou's independent guide · Free virtual event · 6–13 September 2026
Build an AI-powered digital asset. Not another job.
The Side Hustle Summit brings Iman Gadzhi and Russell Brunson together to explore how an AI-assisted digital-product side hustle can be chosen, built and launched—including a complete live build. Here is why I believe the free event deserves serious attention, who it fits and what to evaluate before you act.

Free registration. Optional paid offers may be presented. No business result is guaranteed.
These describe how the official page positions the model—not guaranteed outcomes for every participant.
The essential distinction
The central question is not “Which side hustle?” It is “What kind of model?”
Many side hustles simply sell more of your finite hours. The model presented by this event is different: use AI to help create a digital product, reduce technical friction and reach buyers without making constant content or paid advertising the only path.
That does not mean automatic, effortless or guaranteed results. It means the underlying model may have something an ordinary second job does not: the structural potential for leverage.
Create an asset
Build something that can be delivered digitally instead of repeatedly selling the same hour.
Use AI as leverage
Apply AI to research, structure and execution—while keeping human judgement and responsibility.
Borrow distribution
Explore partnerships with people who already have audiences rather than assuming you must become an influencer first.
Want to see the model explained and built?
Use the free Summit to evaluate the mechanism—not to surrender your judgement.
The official five-episode blueprint
What the Summit says it will show you
The following is a concise summary of the curriculum published on the official event page—not an independent promise of results.
The Best Side Hustle to Start in 2026
The proposed AI side-hustle model, partnering with existing audiences and using AI to reduce the workload.
How to Build Your First Side Hustle With AI
Using AI for technical and repetitive tasks, choosing what to build and setting up the first version.
The Untapped Digital Goldmine
The digital-product opportunity and approaches to finding initial buyers without relying on ads or a personal following.
Russell Brunson: Offers and Funnels
Frameworks for shaping an idea into a structured digital-product offer and customer journey.
Building the Side Hustle Live
Iman and Russell intend to build a complete AI-powered side hustle from scratch, live, so viewers can see the decisions and sequence rather than only hear the theory.
Why this is worth examining
Why this has my attention
A complete AI-assisted side-hustle build is scheduled as part of the official event.
The combination of a structured five-episode sequence, a live build and two experienced digital-business educators makes this an opportunity to observe the decisions and sequence in context—not merely collect isolated tactics.
That is a reason to evaluate the event. It is not a promise that every participant will achieve the same outcome.
My experience makes me more selective—not more impressionable
I have participated in dozens of affiliate launches since 2009. My strongest campaigns worked when I treated the “side” project with main-project clarity: a clear destination, a real ideal customer, a differentiated angle and committed execution.
The opposite lesson matters just as much
I have also experienced projects and launches that consumed focus, energy and recovery margin. A project can perform financially and still be badly designed if the operator collapses—or has no compelling direction when the campaign ends.
That is why I am not presenting the Summit as a lottery ticket. I am presenting it as a serious chance to examine a potentially leveraged model.
The Side-Salad Effect
When you give a side hustle time and energy—but only leftover focus, standards and commitment—it can become a burden with negative return on both money and time.
The 5M fit filter
Do not ask only, “Can it work commercially?”
Ask whether the vehicle is worth building—and whether it can succeed without consuming the life it is supposed to improve.
This free event may fit you if…
- you are capable but capped by a model in which your output depends directly on your available hours;
- you want to understand digital products and AI-assisted execution;
- you have expertise, experience or curiosity that could become useful intellectual property;
- you are prepared to validate a market and implement—not merely collect inspiration.
Think twice if…
- you are looking for guaranteed or effortless results;
- another event would distract you from a direction that is already working;
- you are likely to purchase from urgency without protecting financial and personal Margin;
- you want AI to replace responsibility, judgement or service to a real customer.
If the “may fit” column sounds like you, attend as an investigator.
The registration is free; your judgement remains yours.
Decision questions
What you should know before registering
Is registration really free?
Yes. Registration for the Side Hustle Summit is free. Optional paid products or upgrades may be presented during or after the event.
What kind of side hustle is this event actually about?
The published curriculum points toward an AI-assisted digital-product model: create a digital asset, use AI to reduce execution friction and explore distribution through existing audiences, offers and funnels.
Do I need experience, an audience, paid ads or to show my face?
The official event page says the model is designed to be approachable without prior experience, an existing audience, ad spend or showing your face. That describes the intended model; it does not guarantee that every participant will achieve the same outcome.
Will optional paid offers be presented?
They may be. Registration for the event is free, but optional products or upgrades may be offered during or after it. Evaluate every later decision separately, based on its current terms and fit for you.
When does it take place?
The event is scheduled across five episodes on 6, 7, 8, 9 and 13 September 2026. Check the official registration page for the current session times and access details.
