How to make money online.
When I read about making money on most sites it always seems to be a
little cheesy or some type of link hacking system that is to good to be
true.
There are, however, some great individuals who do it right. In the
video below I’ll mention who some of them are and give you my top 10
ways to make money online in an authentic, inspiring, educating and
entertaining way.
A way that leaves you full not by the amount of money in your bank account (because it can be A LOT if you do it right)
but by the emails you receive by customers on how you changed their
life, or when you meet an online client in person with tears rolling
down their face expressing how their dreams have been achieved because
of YOU!
It’s a powerful feeling, and I want you to experience that.
But it takes knowing
how to do it the right way that both serves
your vision
and supports others.
1. Teaching and Training
This is my number one way, and I been doing this for the last 5
years. This is something that almost every major University has been
doing (taking their classes online) due to the huge success they saw
from University of Phoenix which set the tone for online education.
It’s easier now more than ever for companies and entrepreneurs to
launch online schools, and my good friend
Marie Forleo is a prime example with her mega success,
B-School.
2. Offering a Service
Providing a service may be the easiest way to start is you don’t need any investment to get this going. My podcast editor
Ian Robinson
is helping podcast creators edit their shows to increase production
value. There are many different ways to provide a service and it’s just
about realizing where your talent lies and what solution you can
provide for others.
3. Creating and Selling Products
If you have an expertise in ANYTHING then you can package it into a
book, course, software, audio program, DVD, and so on. The best way to
get the word out and sell these products is with
webinars.
4. Membership Sites and Continuity Programs
Another champion that I have a lot of respect for in this arena is
Ramit Sethi. He has an amazing continuity program (
Ramit’s Brain Trust)
and each month provides useful and specific information for his
passionate community. The community thrives off of his wise direction
and pay him monthly to continue getting access to the community and
resources. The beauty of this model is you sell something once and get
paid each month for it.
5. Affiliate Marketing
Nick Reese has done an incredible job of building websites,
developing outstanding searchable content and selling other peoples
products on his sites. He gets a commission on every sale or lead he
sends to the company. So he never had to create his own product in
order to build his business (he has since branched out into other areas
that you can check out on his
new site).
Pat Flynn also does an amazing job at this and he actually shows how much he generates on a monthly basis from his affiliates
here.
6. Building a Site and Selling Ads
Derek Halpern is a BEAST at this. The legend behind
SocialTriggers
started a celebrity gossip site years ago and had millions of visitors
every month that he leveraged to sell advertising on the site. Another
example is Tina Su of
ThinkSimpleNow.com who does an amazing job with this while sharing inspiring personal development content.
7. Selling Sponsorships for Branded Content
John Lee Dumas, generates over $50K monthly selling sponsorships on his podcast and writes about how he does this
here.
This can be done via podcast, developing a niched website or even a
video show. Create branded content around your passion and find sponsors
that will be attracted to your audience.
8. Events
Creating and promoting events, either online or offline can be very profitable as well.
Michael Stelzner does
both online summits and in person events with thousands of attendees,
all while starting out from a simple blog a few years ago.
9. Masterminds and Coaching
An inspiring change maker part of the
Integrity Podcast Network is
Jonathan Fields. He runs the
Good Life Project
and has ongoing coaching and retreats in exotic locations all year long
that sells for a high ticket price. This can be done either online or
offline, as Jonathan has mastered the art of doing both.
10. Getting Creative
Jason Sadler (now known as Jason SurfrApp) is one creative entrepreneur. He used his online platform to make money wearing companies shirts with
Iwearyourshirt.com. Now he sells his last name for nearly $50,000 a year, sells sponsors pages in his
new book, and continues to push the envelop with what you can earn by being creative.
