Making Money Anywhere: Cracking the Code
So being able to make money anywhere around the world is a dream that I’m sure that you have, because it was a dream that I had for the longest time, and I’m here today to tell you that I’ve been able to crack the code, because it wasn’t too long ago that I was working a 9-to-5 job being told what to do, having to go to the same location Monday to Friday, to eventually start in various different online side hustles that has now enabled me to quit my 9-to-5 job, travel around the world to various different amazing locations, have a house in the UK, have a house in Dubai, while still earning a source of income online, and in today’s video what I want to do is go through four of the most beginner-friendly ways of starting a remote online side hustle, so that by the end of this video you’re going to be able to also put yourself in a position where you’re going to be able to make money anywhere around the world.
Starting a Newsletter Business
So jumping straight into one of the first remote side hustles that I want to talk about, which is by starting a newsletter business, now this is a method of making money online that I don’t see that many people talking about, but in my opinion is one of the most powerful ways, because if you’re able to build up an email list of people that you know are interested in a particular topic, all you need to do is send them free emails, you know, a couple times a week, maybe one time a week minimum, and as long as you’re providing that person with valuable emails, eventually you’re going to be able to now offer them various different products and services.
Building Email Lists from Anywhere
At the moment I’ve got around three different email newsletters in three different niches, and of course when it comes to building up an email list and operating these different newsletters, I’m able to do it from anywhere. You don’t need to be in a specific location, you don’t need to be in a specific country, literally all you need to do is build up the email list, and there’s certain ways that you can do that and I’m going to explain it in a moment, and as long as you’ve put in energy and you’ve been consistent when it comes to building up your list, the more and more people that you’re able to get on your list, the bigger opportunity you’re going to have when it comes to earning an online source of income.
Real-Life Email Subscriber Count
So as I already said, I’ve got a couple different email newsletters and a couple different niches. Here’s one of the ones that I’m currently running. I’ve got a total email subscriber count of 37,400. This is real life people that have signed up to the email list for them to get informative emails about whatever this topic is about, and in addition to being able to run these email newsletters anywhere that you want, this is something that you’re going to be able to own, no one is going to be able to take it away from you.
Using AWeber for Email Marketing
As you can see with this email list, I’m running it using AWeber. There’s so many different email marketing softwares that you can use, but with this particular list I’m using AWeber. I would definitely recommend it, it’s free for you to sign up. I’m going to leave a direct sign up link to AWeber in my description down below, again completely free, and the reason why I like AWeber and the reason why I recommend it is because the emails that I send out always get sent, they don’t end up in junk. Of course you need to make sure that you’re sending out valuable emails, but they don’t ever end up in junk. The people on the email list always receive the emails.
AWeber’s Template Options
In addition to that, they’ve got all of these different templates to choose from when it comes to sign up pages, it just makes every… a little bit more easier. So depending on what type of email list you’re looking to build up in a specific niche, whether it’s e-commerce, whether it’s a blog, whether it’s just a general optin page, you’ve got all of these different options.
Offering a Detailed Newsletter Business
Now of course there is a lot more that goes into building up a newsletter when it comes to the strategy that you should use in the form of using social media as well as some other platforms out there, and if you wanted me to make a detailed step-by-step.
Monetizing Your Email List
But for those of you that are still wondering, “But Sam, how exactly are you going to make money from building up an email list?” Now there’s so many different options out there, but I would say that the main ways is by doing something called affiliate marketing. To give you an idea of exactly how this works, if you build up an email list, let’s say in the pet niche, where you’re going to provide emails educating people and just giving them informative updates about the pet industry or whatever it is, from there you’re now going to be able to recommend products and services that you don’t even have to own, and again, the more and more you’re able to build up the email list, the more and more money you’re essentially going to be able to make.
Building an Affiliate Income Website
So I would say that that’s one of the main ways that you can monetize an email newsletter. There’s some other ways that you can do it, but this now brings me on to the second remote online side hustle that I want to share with you guys, which is to build an affiliate income website. Now for those of you that are completely new to the concept of being able to make money online with a website, it’s probably one of the oldest ways of doing so, and of course when it comes to building an affiliate website where you don’t need to own the products, you don’t need to ship out anything, you don’t need to deal with any customer service or anything like that, you’re going to be able to run this website anywhere that you want.
Generating Monthly Cash Flow with Websites
This is another online side hustle that I’ve been putting a lot of priority into when it comes to building up because I see it as a powerful way of being able to generate a monthly cash flow, and again I’ve got a couple different websites that I’m running at the moment. As you can see, this is one of the ones that I share on this channel. It can be found at articles ranked on the first page of Google. So when someone searches for any one of these different article titles, from there they’re going to click into the website, we’re of course going to provide that reader with the information that they’re looking for, and the main source of income from website just like this again is going to be from affiliate income.
The Remote Nature of Affiliate Websites
It goes about saying why starting a website like this can be remote because of course you can start it in one country, run it in a different country, you’re not responsible for shipping out the products, you’re not responsible for the customer service side of things or anything like that. All you need to do is build the website, make sure that it’s clear in the branding of the website, you’re going to post articles on it, you can schedule the articles to be released today, tomorrow, far into the future, and as long as you’ve made sure to build your website in the right way, making sure that it’s optimized for desktop and mobile phone, it’s simply going to come down to making sure that you’re linking to profitable affiliate products throughout your website.
Finding Affiliate Offers
And the way that you’re going to be able to find these different affiliate offers is by going onto websites like impact.com, ShareASale, you can also go onto Partner Stack, ClickBank as another option that you can use, or you can go directly onto a company’s website, scroll down to the bottom, and 90% of the time you’re going to see that they’ve got an affiliate program that you can sign up to.
Creating Your Own Digital Product
But moving on to the third remote way that you can make money online and start a side hustle, which is by building and creating your own digital product. Now a lot of beginners out there get intimidated when they hear the words “digital product.” They over-complicate it and it doesn’t need to be a complicated thing. In my opinion, I would say that it’s probably one of the most simplistic business models out there because if you’re able to build your own digital product and you put a lot of energy and effort when it comes to building it the first time, everything else after that is going to be automated.
The Benefits of Digital Products
Again, there’s no location that is necessary because once the person buys whatever digital product you sell, it’s going to be automatically emailed over to them. In addition to that, the profit margins are basically 100%, of course depending on how you sell it, and the best part about it is that there’s so many different types of digital products that you can sell and there’s so many different ways that you can sell them. You’ve got the option of using a marketplace like Udemy, Etsy if you want to, or what you can do is list the digital product for sale on a website like Thinkific or Teachable.
Types of Digital Products
And when it comes to a lot of the different types of digital products that are out there, we’ve got things like online courses, digital downloads, coaching, memberships, communities, ebooks, spreadsheets, photography, music, and audio. There’s so many different types, and just like with anything else, there is going to be a learning curve when it comes to making sure that you’ve built the best digital product possible, but as long as you’re able to build the right digital product and put it in front of a potential customer using some of the methods that I’ve spoken about earlier in this video, whether it’s through building up an email newsletter or a website, you’re going to be in a position where you’re essentially printing money 24/7.
Success with Digital Products
So again, as I just said, I’m selling various different types of digital products in various different niches throughout the entire internet, and if I just log into one of my accounts, as you can see over here, from just one digital product alone I’ve been able to make over $117,000, and I’ve got over 10 different digital products that I’m selling right now as we speak. And I’ve got another video coming out real soon that I’m working on right now that’s going to go through step by step A to Z what you need to know when it comes to selling your first digital product.
Utilizing Google Videos
But moving on to the fourth way to make money anywhere around the world as a complete beginner, which is by utilizing Google videos. Now the interesting thing is most of you are probably thinking, what exactly is Google videos and how can I use it to make money?” But you’ve probably used it yourself without even realizing. Now I’m going to quickly show you exactly how it works. So what someone will do is go onto Google just like this, and from here they’re just going to type in whatever search term. I’m going to type in a random one which is “best travel destinations.” I’m just going to click on it just like that, and from here the person that is searching for information about the best travel destinations can either stick on this page where they’re going to see all of these different websites, or what they might do and what you probably do yourself is you click on the video tab over here.
YouTube and Google Search Results
And as you can see on this page, there’s various different article sharing platforms, and of course because Google owns YouTube, YouTube is going to be the main one that’s going to be on here. So essentially what you’re going to be doing is starting a YouTube channel and you’re going to title the video and do all of the SEO stuff on the back end of the video so that it can end up in the Google search results. And the thing is, you don’t even need to make videos and publish them on YouTube where you show your face and use your voice. There’s so many different types of channels that are on here.
Earning Potential with YouTube Videos
But producing videos like this where you don’t need to be on camera and you can eventually get it ranked on the Google search results is definitely a great way to make money online anywhere around the world.
Additional Resources and Masterclass
And of course just like with anything else that I’ve shown you in this article, there’s going to be a full step-by-step method that goes into setting this up. So if you wanted to read a recent article that I made where I explained this in a little bit more detail. Make sure you watch that after this because it’s already helped out so many people and I’m going to be able to spend a little bit more time showing you the ins and outs. And if you also wanted to watch a completely free masterclass where I’m going to explain how you can get started with affiliate income that of course you’re going to be able to earn anywhere around the world, in this masterclass I’m going to explain what I needed to do as a complete beginner to go from 0 to my first $100,000 in pure profit. Make sure you stay safe out there. Peace.
