Hope everyone's doing good!

I'm looking for advice or ideas on a possible new direction.

History
I used to do SEO several years ago when things were much easier to rank. Made decent money via Amazon associates. Methods stopped working eventually and I moved on to deal posting / forum marketing. I've been able to make enough to buy a house outright and have savings, but that business model is starting to slow down also.

Currently
Whilst deal posting, I learned how to create bots to manage multiple accounts using BAS (Browser automation studio). I've managed to make some pretty sophisticated bots for automation and they work great (I have zero coding knowledge either). However, now I want to move on from deal posting

Previously, I've just jumped into projects because I could make them profitable, but they were always a grind and it was just about making money (SEO / Marketing / Deal posting etc). Now I feel like I'm in a better position, so I want to focus on projects that challenge me and offer variety, that ignite some type of passion in my work and force me to use my brain to problem solve - not just go through the motions.

My thoughts
I'm thinking about starting up a YouTube channel or other resources to teach people how to create advanced bots using BAS. Possibly create tools to provide services if there are any good ideas. I think there's potential there, although I've not done much market research yet. I'm gravitating towards this because I have the knowledge now and there's a lot of variety there.

I'm mostly looking to get any thoughts, advice, joint venture ideas, or any challenges to my main idea with BAS. For the first time, I've been able to stop and think about what I want to do to feel more fulfillment WHILST making money, instead of just doing any mundane work I can do to pay the bills. So I want to take the opportunity to really think and plan, instead of jumping in.
 
If you want to open a Youtube channel for educational purposes you can as well do some Udemy/any other online courses and/or selling guides and e-books with platforms like Gumroad.

Also, I honestly don't know much about BAS and automation, but maybe you can find some way and sell the bots you made/the ones you can make now that you have more knowledge to clients, so you're not the one doing marketing but you're just making bots and tools for automation for your customers.
You can use some freelance marketplace such as the usual Upwork, PeopleperHour or Fiverr (maybe doing the same gig but targeting several niches, for example a gig saying "I will do bots for automation in Instagram", and the same gig for "I will make bots for forum's automation posting" and the same with other places where you can use them: you can do up to 7 gig and target a different area with each one, this will help you and let you show up in several areas).

You can use Linkedin too or start an agency website, if you want to take to the next step, and pay for some lead generation services (or learn it by yourself, if that is something you like), in order to find some potential customers.
Anyway, good luck for your business :) (if you're searching for joint ventures you should post this in the "Joint ventures" subforum here, https://www.blackhatworld.com/forums/joint-ventures.65/)
