Google Veo 3, launched at Google I/O 2025, creates professional videos from text prompts in minutes. These videos boast sharp images, perfectly matched sound, realistic dialogue, and believable physics (YugaTech, 2025). For your business, it’s a cost-saver that delivers polished content fast. I tested it, and it’s like having a production studio on speed dial.
Your VA can use AI video tools like Veo 3 to produce a product demo or client testimonial video in under 60 minutes, with AI handling visuals and audio, while the VA ensures brand alignment. According to industry analysis, AI-generated video can reduce production costs by up to 50% and speed up delivery by as much as 70% compared to traditional video methods (ZebraCat, 2025). It’s still in the process of being perfect; complex scenes may need minor edits, but the savings are real and the results are undeniably more than we’d expect.
Here’s the value for you:
Marketing boost: Create ads for X or LinkedIn that rival big-budget campaigns, driving 20% higher click-through rates (Meetcody.ai, 2025).
Streamlined training: Produce onboarding videos without scheduling shoots, saving 10 hours per project.
Client wins: Craft custom pitch videos to showcase products, increasing close rates by 15%.
Rapid testing: Generate multiple video versions fast, with VAs refining prompts for perfect messaging.

AI AS YOUR GROWTH CO-PILOT WITH DAVID MELTZER
In Episode 3 of the Beyond Virtual Podcast, we talked with David Meltzer, serial entrepreneur and Napoleon Hill Institute Chairman, about using AI to grow your business without losing focus.
Key insights:
Using AI to move from “negative one to zero” and “zero to one” in business, tackling the toughest early stages of growth.
Capturing your unique essence through content to stay ahead in an AI-driven world.
Balancing AI efficiency with human connection to scale with authenticity.
Why faith and prioritization are key to thriving in the AI era.
David’s take? “AI makes humans more human.” It gets the boring jobs done, letting you focus on strategy and relationships. He advises embracing AI, reading for creativity, and building grit. Maybe not knocking on 150 doors daily, but close.
He also emphasized that in five years, those who consistently document their journey will have a “15-year head start” in leveraging AI to amplify their impact. I tried his daily note-taking tip, and it immediately helped me clarify my priorities, working wonders! Perfect for busy entrepreneurs aiming to scale smart.

Real-time collaboration: AI tools like Google’s Gemini Live enable instant team coordination, speeding project delivery by 30% (Meetcody.ai, 2025).
Generative AI expansion: Beyond video, AI now creates 3D models and audio, enhancing product design and pitches.
AI-driven insights: Advanced analytics uncover customer patterns, increasing sales leads by 15% (TechInsights, 2025).
Secure AI adoption: Data security and regulatory compliance are top priorities for organizations adopting AI, with most businesses relying on advanced encryption and security protocols to protect sensitive information and ensure compliance with industry standards (IBM, 2024).
With our co-pilot model, we can automate most daily tasks that take up 60% to 70% of an employee's time. Companies that do this well can save up to 30% on costs and boost productivity by 20% to 30% (McKinsey & Company, 2023). I thought AI might overcomplicate things, but with VAs, it’s streamlined and effective.
Adopt these trends and start dominating your market.
