00:00:00 | 00:00:04 | so maybe you're sick of wanting ties to |
00:00:02 | 00:00:06 | work every week |

00:00:08 | 00:00:10 | too much like one of these guys right |
00:00:10 | 00:00:12 | here |
00:00:10 | 00:00:13 | whatever the reason is doesn't really |
00:00:12 | 00:00:14 | matter what matters is that you're |
00:00:13 | 00:00:16 | looking to start an |
00:00:14 | 00:00:18 | online business and you don't have a lot |
00:00:16 | 00:00:21 | of cash to get started |
00:00:18 | 00:00:23 | so this video is the seven best online |
00:00:21 | 00:00:24 | business ideas for 2021 that you can use |
00:00:23 | 00:00:26 | to make money |
00:00:24 | 00:00:27 | while not having to invest a lot of |
00:00:26 | 00:00:29 | money into the business |
00:00:27 | 00:00:30 | now idea number one is called kindle |
00:00:29 | 00:00:33 | direct publishing or |
00:00:30 | 00:00:36 | kdp and what this is is it's actually |
00:00:33 | 00:00:38 | writing books that can go on to amazon |
00:00:36 | 00:00:39 | now you don't have to have a crazy |
00:00:38 | 00:00:41 | amount of experience and you don't have |
00:00:39 | 00:00:44 | to be a great writer for this to work |
00:00:41 | 00:00:45 | you can even write children's books that |
00:00:44 | 00:00:48 | are 10 |
00:00:45 | 00:00:50 | 20 30 words long in total basically the |
00:00:48 | 00:00:52 | size of a tweet |
00:00:50 | 00:00:53 | and you can still do fine with this so |
00:00:52 | 00:00:54 | if you look on the camazon |
00:00:53 | 00:00:56 | on the amazon kindle store you can see |
00:00:54 | 00:00:58 | that there's hundreds and hundreds of |
00:00:56 | 00:01:00 | categories there's sub categories |
00:00:58 | 00:01:02 | there's a ton of places |
00:01:00 | 00:01:04 | and you can place books you can sell |
00:01:02 | 00:01:08 | books for anywhere from 1.99 |
00:01:04 | 00:01:10 | to 10 20 30 now the key here is to |
00:01:08 | 00:01:11 | choose a niche and to go go as deep as |
00:01:10 | 00:01:13 | you can so you're obviously not going to |
00:01:11 | 00:01:14 | rank you know for the best |
00:01:13 | 00:01:15 | entrepreneurship book on the internet |
00:01:14 | 00:01:16 | probably |
00:01:15 | 00:01:18 | but you can write a book for a very |
00:01:16 | 00:01:20 | small subsection of entrepreneurship |
00:01:18 | 00:01:21 | maybe a book about how to |
00:01:20 | 00:01:23 | make youtube videos or something else |
00:01:21 | 00:01:24 | that you're an expert at |
00:01:23 | 00:01:27 | and you can start getting sales |
00:01:24 | 00:01:29 | organically every single day from amazon |
00:01:27 | 00:01:30 | using a book you can even go onto |
00:01:29 | 00:01:31 | fiverr.com and you can order |
00:01:30 | 00:01:32 | illustrations for this book you can |
00:01:31 | 00:01:34 | order really cool |
00:01:32 | 00:01:36 | children's book illustrations or you can |
00:01:34 | 00:01:37 | order you know like more more adultish |
00:01:36 | 00:01:39 | illustrations like these |
00:01:37 | 00:01:41 | and honestly if you're in a lot of |
00:01:39 | 00:01:42 | categories you don't even need to have |
00:01:41 | 00:01:44 | illustrations you just need to be able |
00:01:42 | 00:01:46 | to give them information |
00:01:44 | 00:01:48 | now obviously amazon is going to take a |
00:01:46 | 00:01:49 | small cut of every book sold but that's |
00:01:48 | 00:01:51 | the right because they're the one that's |
00:01:49 | 00:01:52 | bringing new traffic and customers to |
00:01:51 | 00:01:53 | your book |
00:01:52 | 00:01:55 | now the next best thing and honestly |
00:01:53 | 00:01:56 | probably my favorite way of getting |
00:01:55 | 00:01:58 | started when you have |
00:01:56 | 00:02:00 | zero dollars in the bank and you don't |
00:01:58 | 00:02:01 | want to put a single dollar into your |
00:02:00 | 00:02:02 | online business |
00:02:01 | 00:02:04 | is flipping so all you've got to do is |
00:02:02 | 00:02:06 | go to sites like facebook.com |
00:02:04 | 00:02:08 | craigslist.com and a lot of communities |
00:02:06 | 00:02:10 | have local versions of this as well |
00:02:08 | 00:02:11 | all you've got to do is type in free and |
00:02:10 | 00:02:14 | you'll see people around you |
00:02:11 | 00:02:15 | throwing in all kinds of stuff that's |
00:02:14 | 00:02:16 | free just giving it away |
00:02:15 | 00:02:18 | now in your head you might think why |
00:02:16 | 00:02:19 | would someone give away something when |
00:02:18 | 00:02:20 | they could sell it on these sites and |
00:02:19 | 00:02:23 | i'll tell you why |
00:02:20 | 00:02:25 | so just a couple years ago me and my |
00:02:23 | 00:02:27 | wife were moving and we got to the final |
00:02:25 | 00:02:30 | day in our house so it was moving day |
00:02:27 | 00:02:32 | and we realized that our bed our dresser |
00:02:30 | 00:02:34 | a couple armoires a lot of stuff |
00:02:32 | 00:02:35 | wouldn't fit in our moving van |
00:02:34 | 00:02:37 | that means that we had about two hours |
00:02:35 | 00:02:39 | to sell this stuff and we had |
00:02:37 | 00:02:41 | nowhere to put it if we couldn't sell it |
00:02:39 | 00:02:42 | so we were completely desperate and we |
00:02:41 | 00:02:44 | gave away a queen-size |
00:02:42 | 00:02:46 | bed we gave away a really nice dresser |
00:02:44 | 00:02:48 | we gave away half of what we owned |
00:02:46 | 00:02:49 | to people that probably did exactly what |
00:02:48 | 00:02:52 | i'm telling us to do here |
00:02:49 | 00:02:54 | all you've got to do is type in free go |
00:02:52 | 00:02:56 | pick up the stuff that's free |
00:02:54 | 00:02:57 | throw it back onto facebook marketplace |
00:02:56 | 00:02:59 | or craigslist |
00:02:57 | 00:03:00 | and you can sell it for 50 to 100 bucks |
00:02:59 | 00:03:02 | in just a few days |
00:03:00 | 00:03:03 | then you can take the money that you've |
00:03:02 | 00:03:05 | made from that and you can start |
00:03:03 | 00:03:06 | investing that into one of these other |
00:03:05 | 00:03:08 | side hustle businesses |
00:03:06 | 00:03:10 | where you can start earning some money |
00:03:08 | 00:03:12 | maybe a little more passively |
00:03:10 | 00:03:14 | the third idea is drop shipping and if |
00:03:12 | 00:03:16 | you haven't heard of drop shipping |
00:03:14 | 00:03:18 | all we're doing is we're creating online |
00:03:16 | 00:03:20 | stores for physical products |
00:03:18 | 00:03:22 | when someone goes to buy those physical |
00:03:20 | 00:03:25 | products we're buying them from china |
00:03:22 | 00:03:26 | or somewhere similar for cheaper and |
00:03:25 | 00:03:28 | then we're selling them and shipping |
00:03:26 | 00:03:29 | them to our customers for a little more |
00:03:28 | 00:03:31 | so you don't actually have to put in any |
00:03:29 | 00:03:32 | money to buy these products until you've |
00:03:31 | 00:03:33 | already made the sale and you've already |
00:03:32 | 00:03:35 | been paid |
00:03:33 | 00:03:36 | now this means that it's really really |
00:03:35 | 00:03:38 | low risk all you've got to do is create |
00:03:36 | 00:03:40 | a shopify account like this one |
00:03:38 | 00:03:42 | that costs about 29 a month and you get |
00:03:40 | 00:03:43 | a free trial next thing you've got to do |
00:03:42 | 00:03:45 | is connect this |
00:03:43 | 00:03:47 | in with aliexpress aliexpress is just a |
00:03:45 | 00:03:49 | big marketplace where you can go and buy |
00:03:47 | 00:03:51 | things really cheap from china |
00:03:49 | 00:03:52 | and then you can connect the two every |
00:03:51 | 00:03:54 | time someone goes to your shopify store |
00:03:52 | 00:03:57 | and buys it automatikally buys the |
00:03:54 | 00:03:59 | product from aliexpress ships it to them |
00:03:57 | 00:04:00 | and you're kind of just the front end |
00:03:59 | 00:04:02 | middleman now the pros here are it |
00:04:00 | 00:04:03 | pretty much costs nothing to get started |
00:04:02 | 00:04:04 | with this |
00:04:03 | 00:04:07 | and you can make some money fairly |
00:04:04 | 00:04:09 | quickly on some items that are 10 20 30 |
00:04:07 | 00:04:11 | the con is that you can have some |
00:04:09 | 00:04:12 | nightmares in customer service as you |
00:04:11 | 00:04:14 | have these issues with different |
00:04:12 | 00:04:16 | suppliers and things not shipping |
00:04:14 | 00:04:17 | products and in the end it can be really |
00:04:16 | 00:04:18 | hard to manage if you're doing it all |
00:04:17 | 00:04:19 | yourself |
00:04:18 | 00:04:21 | you can market these products completely |
00:04:19 | 00:04:22 | for free on places like tiktok or |
00:04:21 | 00:04:24 | |
00:04:22 | 00:04:25 | or you can start running paid ads if |
00:04:24 | 00:04:27 | you've got a little bit of budget to try |
00:04:25 | 00:04:29 | and accelerate that process |
00:04:27 | 00:04:31 | the next idea is one that's my personal |
00:04:29 | 00:04:32 | favorite it's what allowed me to quit my |
00:04:31 | 00:04:34 | nine-to-five job |
00:04:32 | 00:04:36 | in fact let's take off this tie right |
00:04:34 | 00:04:37 | now |
00:04:36 | 00:04:39 | and it's affiliate marketing now what |
00:04:37 | 00:04:42 | affiliate marketing is is |
00:04:39 | 00:04:44 | you market a company's products for them |
00:04:42 | 00:04:45 | and when someone buys |
00:04:44 | 00:04:47 | you make money and so affiliate |
00:04:45 | 00:04:48 | marketing is really really simple to |
00:04:47 | 00:04:49 | understand it's a little bit harder to |
00:04:48 | 00:04:51 | execute |
00:04:49 | 00:04:52 | but essentially you choose a company |
00:04:51 | 00:04:54 | that has a product you like |
00:04:52 | 00:04:56 | you join their affiliate program they |
00:04:54 | 00:04:57 | give you a special link that looks kind |
00:04:56 | 00:04:58 | of like this one on the screen and that |
00:04:57 | 00:05:00 | tracks |
00:04:58 | 00:05:02 | every customer that comes from you you |
00:05:00 | 00:05:05 | go out on the internet on places like |
00:05:02 | 00:05:06 | tiktok or a blog or a youtube channel |
00:05:05 | 00:05:08 | like this one |
00:05:06 | 00:05:09 | and you make videos about that product |
00:05:08 | 00:05:10 | or you write blog posts about that |
00:05:09 | 00:05:13 | product |
00:05:10 | 00:05:14 | when people read or watch your content |
00:05:13 | 00:05:17 | and they decide to buy that product |
00:05:14 | 00:05:18 | they click on your special link and you |
00:05:17 | 00:05:19 | get paid |
00:05:18 | 00:05:21 | now the reason i love affiliate |
00:05:19 | 00:05:23 | marketing so much is there's no support |
00:05:21 | 00:05:24 | there's no really anything except for |
00:05:23 | 00:05:25 | being good at marketing |
00:05:24 | 00:05:27 | once you learn how to get good at |
00:05:25 | 00:05:28 | marketing and building an audience and |
00:05:27 | 00:05:30 | getting people to click these links |
00:05:28 | 00:05:31 | you're able to make money and you can |
00:05:30 | 00:05:33 | make it fairly passively and you don't |
00:05:31 | 00:05:34 | have to deal with all the other things |
00:05:33 | 00:05:36 | that come with owning a company |
00:05:34 | 00:05:37 | now the con of affiliate marketing is a |
00:05:36 | 00:05:39 | lot of affiliate programs tend to be |
00:05:37 | 00:05:41 | fairly oversaturated and there's a lot |
00:05:39 | 00:05:42 | of people trying to make money with them |
00:05:41 | 00:05:44 | which makes it a little bit harder for |
00:05:42 | 00:05:45 | you as a brand new beginner but if |
00:05:44 | 00:05:46 | affiliate marketing |
00:05:45 | 00:05:48 | interests you i want you to click this |

00:05:49 | 00:05:53 | marketing as a complete beginner |
00:05:51 | 00:05:55 | now the next way and this is one of my |
00:05:53 | 00:05:58 | favorite ways to earn passive income |
00:05:55 | 00:05:58 | is by being a blogger hence we're |
00:05:58 | 00:06:00 | sitting on a bed |
00:05:58 | 00:06:02 | by the way hopefully you've notiked at |
00:06:00 | 00:06:03 | this point that we're changing locations |

00:06:09 | 00:06:11 | money online is what this channel is all |
00:06:10 | 00:06:13 | about |
00:06:11 | 00:06:14 | anyway back to blogging blogging is |
00:06:13 | 00:06:16 | writing artikles on a blog |
00:06:14 | 00:06:18 | and you show up in google just like this |
00:06:16 | 00:06:20 | right here so someone a potential |
00:06:18 | 00:06:21 | customer of yours type something into |
00:06:20 | 00:06:24 | |
00:06:21 | 00:06:25 | they see all these different options |
00:06:24 | 00:06:26 | they click one of these options and end |
00:06:25 | 00:06:28 | up on your blog |
00:06:26 | 00:06:30 | now in that blog typically you can make |
00:06:28 | 00:06:30 | money as an affiliate marketer or you |
00:06:30 | 00:06:32 | can make money |
00:06:30 | 00:06:34 | as a drop shipper or you can make money |

00:06:34 | 00:06:38 | blog whatever the way you choose though |
00:06:36 | 00:06:40 | you're basically putting out written |
00:06:38 | 00:06:42 | content google is finding that content |
00:06:40 | 00:06:43 | and sending customers your way |
00:06:42 | 00:06:45 | now it's really important to understand |

00:06:45 | 00:06:48 | hustle money right now or even in the |
00:06:47 | 00:06:50 | next six months |
00:06:48 | 00:06:52 | blogging is definitely not the route for |
00:06:50 | 00:06:53 | you blogging takes quite a while to get |
00:06:52 | 00:06:55 | off the ground |
00:06:53 | 00:06:57 | it's just really really awesome once it |
00:06:55 | 00:06:58 | gets running and it can send passive |

00:07:38 | 00:07:42 | design uh |
00:07:40 | 00:07:44 | graphic design video editing all these |
00:07:42 | 00:07:45 | things that these these small businesses |
00:07:44 | 00:07:48 | need to have done |
00:07:45 | 00:07:49 | that they want to hire out you can start |
00:07:48 | 00:07:51 | specializing in one of them |
00:07:49 | 00:07:53 | and you can make a lot of money i've |
00:07:51 | 00:07:54 | seen people start facebook ad agencies |
00:07:53 | 00:07:55 | for example |
00:07:54 | 00:07:58 | that are making ten thousand dollars in |
00:07:55 | 00:08:00 | 60 days just by running facebook |
00:07:58 | 00:08:02 | ads for customers so for this you'll |
00:08:00 | 00:08:02 | need to pick a skill that you're good at |
00:08:02 | 00:08:04 | and then you're actually going to go out |
00:08:02 | 00:08:06 | and have to find clients |
00:08:04 | 00:08:07 | now the con is just that you've got to |
00:08:06 | 00:08:09 | go find clients and you're going to have |
00:08:07 | 00:08:10 | to manage and maintain relationships |
00:08:09 | 00:08:13 | with these clients |
00:08:10 | 00:08:14 | but you can typically sell someone and |
00:08:13 | 00:08:16 | get a thousand dollar down payment in |
00:08:14 | 00:08:18 | the first 30 days of doing this |
00:08:16 | 00:08:20 | if you do right by your clients you can |
00:08:18 | 00:08:22 | be making a thousand dollars a month |
00:08:20 | 00:08:24 | off of one single client and the last |
00:08:22 | 00:08:25 | one is what i do this is my youtube |
00:08:24 | 00:08:26 | office right here where i film my |
00:08:25 | 00:08:28 | youtube videos |
00:08:26 | 00:08:30 | typically to me there's no better side |
00:08:28 | 00:08:31 | hustle or online business than being a |
00:08:30 | 00:08:33 | youtuber |
00:08:31 | 00:08:34 | if you can find a way to get comfortable |
00:08:33 | 00:08:36 | being in front of a camera |
00:08:34 | 00:08:39 | you can make insane amounts of money on |
00:08:36 | 00:08:40 | youtube within your first few years |
00:08:39 | 00:08:42 | as a youtuber you can get paid by the |
00:08:40 | 00:08:43 | ads that run on your channel |
00:08:42 | 00:08:44 | you can get paid as an affiliate |
00:08:43 | 00:08:45 | marketer you can get paid as a drop |
00:08:44 | 00:08:46 | shipper |
00:08:45 | 00:08:49 | and the youtube algorithm is really |
00:08:46 | 00:08:50 | unique in that not only can people |
00:08:49 | 00:08:52 | search and find your videos like we're |
00:08:50 | 00:08:54 | seeing on the screen |
00:08:52 | 00:08:55 | but youtube has this recommended column |
00:08:54 | 00:08:56 | right here so it's kind of like got this |
00:08:55 | 00:08:58 | viral algorithm running |
00:08:56 | 00:09:00 | at the same time as it's got this search |
00:08:58 | 00:09:02 | engine algorithm running |
00:09:00 | 00:09:03 | and your content can blow up in multiple |
00:09:02 | 00:09:05 | different ways now that i'm saying this |
00:09:03 | 00:09:07 | i would love to know if you could leave |
00:09:05 | 00:09:08 | a comment and let me know how you found |
00:09:07 | 00:09:09 | this video |
00:09:08 | 00:09:11 | that would be very helpful to me now |
00:09:09 | 00:09:12 | just like the some of the other methods |
00:09:11 | 00:09:14 | we toked about |
00:09:12 | 00:09:15 | youtube can bring in crazy amounts of |
00:09:14 | 00:09:16 | passive income |
00:09:15 | 00:09:18 | in fact i'm going to show you this |
