## Summary

Yu, an office employee with no AI background, signed up for Claude Pro at $20 a month (about 3,000 yen) and used the free Note platform to create a side‑hustle article. He spent roughly three hours total, starting with a vague idea about diversifying income, consulting Claude for research, structuring the piece, generating a header image, polishing his profile, and publishing.

The workflow involved eight steps: 1) ask Claude what to do, 2) have Claude research demand and side‑hustle types, 3) create Google and Note accounts (about 10 minutes), 4) decide article structure, 5) write the draft, 6) generate a header image and icon, 7) polish the profile, and 8) publish. Yu found Claude helpful for organizing ideas and directly inserting content into Note, though he struggled with many ideas and image cropping issues that required manual fixes.

He concluded that while Claude cannot replace all work, it cut his solo brainstorming time dramatically, making the side‑hustle experiment feel worthwhile. Future posts will detail what succeeded and what fell short after delegating more tasks to the AI.

## Key points

- Claude Pro costs $20 a month (about 3,000 yen)
- Yu completed the entire side‑hustle article in about three hours
- Claude helped research, outline, write, and generate images for the Note post

## Why it matters

Shows how non‑technical workers can quickly produce publishable content using an LLM, lowering the barrier for side‑hustles and small‑business marketing.
