0:00:00.041,0:00:02.252 Thanks[br]to HubSpot for sponsoring this video. 0:00:02.252,0:00:04.129 So naturally,[br]a lot of people think that to get 0:00:04.129,0:00:06.631 a high income job,[br]you need to go to university. 0:00:06.673,0:00:09.300 Now, there is nothing wrong[br]with going to university. 0:00:09.551,0:00:12.053 I think if you're doing something[br]that requires 0:00:12.053,0:00:14.139 university degree, then of course[br]you have to go to university. 0:00:14.139,0:00:15.015 Like it makes a lot of sense. 0:00:15.015,0:00:18.184 But I also like to make the case[br]that you can make money 0:00:18.184,0:00:19.602 without having to go to university. 0:00:19.602,0:00:21.021 And I'm the prime example. 0:00:21.021,0:00:23.606 I'm someone who is not going to[br]university, is not going to college. 0:00:23.898,0:00:26.109 And I've been able to build income[br]streams. 0:00:26.109,0:00:28.737 I've been able to build businesses[br]that can make me serious money, 0:00:28.737,0:00:30.864 more money than most, 9 to 5 jobs. 0:00:30.905,0:00:34.492 I feel like we're also very lucky[br]where we live in this digital age, 0:00:34.492,0:00:37.746 where you can make a business[br]just by sitting behind your computer. 0:00:37.871,0:00:41.291 It blows my mind and it's exactly[br]the type of businesses I've built. 0:00:41.416,0:00:43.918 So in this video,[br]I wanted to share some business ideas 0:00:44.085,0:00:46.337 that you can start[br]their actual proper businesses. 0:00:46.337,0:00:47.922 They don't have to just be side[br]hustles 0:00:47.922,0:00:49.007 that make a little bit of money. 0:00:49.007,0:00:51.593 They can be grown[br]into fully fledged businesses. 0:00:51.634,0:00:53.053 The other great thing[br]about the businesses 0:00:53.053,0:00:55.388 that I'm going to be covering[br]is that they don't require 0:00:55.388,0:00:56.890 a ton of money to get started. 0:00:56.890,0:00:59.350 You can easily get started[br]with what you already have, 0:00:59.559,0:01:00.518 and they also provide 0:01:00.518,0:01:03.021 a lot of flexibility and freedom,[br]which is important to me. 0:01:03.229,0:01:06.024 The whole idea, the whole point of me[br]starting online 0:01:06.024,0:01:09.027 businesses and doing online[br]businesses is so that I have freedom. 0:01:09.069,0:01:11.237 So number one is of course,[br]content creation. 0:01:11.237,0:01:14.074 So I have turned content creation[br]into a full time basis. 0:01:14.324,0:01:17.494 A lot of you that are watching[br]this channel may not already know 0:01:17.702,0:01:19.537 that I actually have another YouTube[br]channel. 0:01:19.537,0:01:21.122 I have a tech YouTube channel. 0:01:21.122,0:01:23.291 I also make content[br]for Instagram and TikTok. 0:01:23.500,0:01:24.626 I make content for all sorts, 0:01:24.626,0:01:27.003 and I'll be making content for five[br]or ten years now. 0:01:27.045,0:01:30.381 Content creation for me has unlocked[br]so many different opportunities. 0:01:30.507,0:01:34.010 And now with the position that I'm in,[br]I want a couple of YouTube channels. 0:01:34.177,0:01:36.513 I'm starting new YouTube channels,[br]I have Instagram, 0:01:36.513,0:01:38.598 I have Tik Tok, I'm making content[br]for brands. 0:01:38.890,0:01:41.017 There's just so many different ways[br]that content creation 0:01:41.017,0:01:43.103 has helped me make a lot of money. 0:01:43.103,0:01:46.356 I think the best thing about content[br]creation is that you can turn things 0:01:46.356,0:01:48.274 that you already love[br]doing into content. 0:01:48.274,0:01:50.276 It is very easy to get started now. 0:01:50.276,0:01:52.237 Of course, it's not easy to grow, 0:01:52.237,0:01:54.531 but I think with the way[br]the Internet is right 0:01:54.531,0:01:56.658 now, you can make content[br]really about anything. 0:01:56.658,0:01:58.409 You can find niches everywhere. 0:01:58.409,0:02:01.037 If you love doing something,[br]if you love showing something, 0:02:01.287,0:02:04.541 there will be other people out there[br]who also love that same thing. 0:02:04.582,0:02:07.335 For me, it was tech,[br]it was gadgets, it was design. 0:02:07.335,0:02:09.754 So all those things mixed together,[br]especially product design 0:02:09.754,0:02:12.006 and things like that,[br]all of that mixed together. 0:02:12.298,0:02:15.343 That's what I loved and that's what[br]I made a YouTube channel about. 0:02:15.343,0:02:16.803 And it's going really well. 0:02:16.803,0:02:17.720 It's doing incredibly well. 0:02:17.720,0:02:19.764 I was making[br]an incredible amount of money for me 0:02:20.056,0:02:21.766 and it's just been such a great way 0:02:21.766,0:02:24.394 for me to turn something[br]that I love into a business. 0:02:24.435,0:02:26.729 The other great thing about content[br]creation and social media 0:02:26.729,0:02:28.898 is that it's not just about you. 0:02:28.940,0:02:30.900 Like, I think a lot of people fall[br]into the trap of thinking 0:02:30.900,0:02:32.819 that they have to make content[br]where they're in it, 0:02:32.819,0:02:35.530 when they're doing the voice overs,[br]where their faces on camera, 0:02:35.530,0:02:36.239 stuff like that. 0:02:36.239,0:02:37.031 Not at all. 0:02:37.031,0:02:38.741 You can really do all sorts of stuff. 0:02:38.741,0:02:40.743 You don't even have to do[br]content creation, free stuff 0:02:40.743,0:02:42.245 you can do for other businesses[br]as well. 0:02:42.245,0:02:44.831 If you are interested in social media[br]trends, HubSpot 0:02:44.831,0:02:48.334 have put together a social media[br]trends report and expert panel. 0:02:48.376,0:02:50.003 If you want to follow in my footsteps 0:02:50.003,0:02:52.297 of making a business[br]out of content creation. 0:02:52.463,0:02:54.424 One thing I would highly recommend 0:02:54.424,0:02:57.177 is just keeping up with social media[br]trends and seeing what's trending. 0:02:57.218,0:03:00.221 Of course, the one issue is how[br]do we know what's actually trending? 0:03:00.346,0:03:02.974 Because things are moving very,[br]very fast in social media world. 0:03:03.016,0:03:05.018 But I have just the right resource 0:03:05.018,0:03:07.729 here to help[br]stay on top of this year's trends. 0:03:07.937,0:03:09.814 How to Spot Social Media Trends[br]Report.

marketing, content creation 0:03:17.655,0:03:19.949 and platform specific strategies. 0:03:19.991,0:03:20.742 There's a whopping 0:03:20.742,0:03:24.204 40 pages of insanely[br]valuable information in this e-book. 0:03:24.204,0:03:27.498 It's a vital resource for anyone who[br]wants to take social media seriously. 0:03:27.540,0:03:30.877 It covers important metrics, goals[br]and challenges faced by social media 0:03:30.877,0:03:34.339 marketers, providing benchmarks[br]and insights to measure success. 0:03:34.339,0:03:37.634 Understanding user behaviour trends[br]highlighted in the report

0:03:45.058,0:03:48.144 future trends and staying informed[br]about competitors strategies. 0:03:48.186,0:03:51.314 Those who take social media[br]seriously can maintain relevance, 0:03:51.522,0:03:53.441 optimise advertising campaigns, 0:03:53.441,0:03:56.444 and can stay ahead in the landscape[br]of social media marketing. 0:03:56.444,0:03:59.781 Content creation for me has been[br]the biggest driver for my business. 0:03:59.822,0:04:01.532 It's how I've been able to give myself 0:04:01.532,0:04:03.534 the freedom, freedom[br]to grow my business. 0:04:03.576,0:04:06.913 This e-book does a great job[br]of demonstrating that content creation 0:04:06.996,0:04:09.123 can be a huge driver of new customers 0:04:09.123,0:04:11.501 and revenue[br]for pretty much any type of business. 0:04:11.626,0:04:13.002 So make sure to check out. 0:04:13.002,0:04:14.629 It's completely free to download. 0:04:14.629,0:04:17.423 Next up is short[br]form content and repurposing. 0:04:17.715,0:04:21.135 So if you have any sort of skill[br]when it comes to video editing, 0:04:21.135,0:04:23.054 which I think is actually fairly easy 0:04:23.054,0:04:25.014 to pick up[br]this is such a great business. 0:04:25.014,0:04:27.433 This is such an easy way[br]to make some money. 0:04:27.433,0:04:30.895 But growing a business like this for[br]a lot of people can be quite difficult 0:04:30.895,0:04:33.106 and it's because they go about it[br]in the wrong way. 0:04:33.106,0:04:36.025 What I've noticed is that a lot[br]of editors that are making shorts 0:04:36.401,0:04:37.944 don't really have a style,[br]and they're also 0:04:37.944,0:04:39.821 not really seeing what's trending 0:04:39.821,0:04:41.531 on the social media landscape. 0:04:41.531,0:04:44.075 You could say they're not seeing[br]what other types of clips 0:04:44.409,0:04:46.202 people actually want to see. 0:04:46.202,0:04:49.414 So I find a lot of these short[br]formats says they're just trying 0:04:49.414,0:04:51.833 to make as many clips as possible[br]just to get the job done. 0:04:51.874,0:04:54.043 However, if you want to make[br]big money, proper money 0:04:54.043,0:04:56.504 when it comes to making short form[br]content editing, short form 0:04:56.504,0:04:59.841 content for businesses, for creators,[br]whatever it might be, 0:04:59.841,0:05:02.802 it's all about coming up with clips[br]that will either go viral 0:05:02.802,0:05:05.555 or can actually make money[br]for the end client. 0:05:05.763,0:05:08.057 A lot of people don't[br]seem to really be focusing on that. 0:05:08.057,0:05:10.184 Like I said, they just want to make[br]as many clips as possible. 0:05:10.476,0:05:12.103 But if you can prove 0:05:12.103,0:05:13.938 that your clips are either going viral 0:05:13.938,0:05:16.899 or they're bringing conversions,[br]you can charge a lot more money. 0:05:17.066,0:05:18.943 I would happily pay for a short 0:05:18.943,0:05:21.446 film editor who I know[br]can regularly get me 0:05:21.446,0:05:23.489 hundreds of thousands of years[br]or millions of views 0:05:23.489,0:05:25.783 or who can sort of figure out 0:05:25.950,0:05:27.702 what's trending was not trending. 0:05:27.702,0:05:29.078 Look at my videos and stuff. 0:05:29.078,0:05:30.955 See where they could see a clip 0:05:30.955,0:05:34.334 maybe potentially going viral[br]or maybe for other parts 0:05:34.334,0:05:36.419 of my business[br]that I helped drive over. 0:05:36.419,0:05:38.379 If they can prove[br]all those sorts of things, 0:05:38.379,0:05:40.715 I'm happy to pay them big money[br]like that. 0:05:40.715,0:05:42.675 Obviously,[br]being able to deliver the results, 0:05:42.675,0:05:44.802 I want to be able to reward them[br]for those results. 0:05:44.802,0:05:46.679 And I know there are short form[br]editors out there 0:05:46.679,0:05:48.890 who are making well over[br]five figures a month. 0:05:48.890,0:05:51.100 They have a few clients[br]that don't have that many clients, 0:05:51.100,0:05:54.270 maybe three or four clients,[br]but they're regularly churning out 0:05:54.270,0:05:56.314 good quality repurposed videos 0:05:56.564,0:05:58.274 that are doing well for their clients. 0:05:58.274,0:05:59.400 And that's the most important thing. 0:05:59.400,0:05:59.692 Instead of 0:05:59.692,0:06:02.862 just trying to figure out I'm going[br]to make ten clips for like $1,000. 0:06:03.029,0:06:03.404 No, no, no. 0:06:03.404,0:06:05.573 And I think it's actually better[br]to make sure 0:06:05.573,0:06:08.117 that the clips you're making[br]are actually going to do well. 0:06:08.159,0:06:10.745 Another thing that I've noticed[br]when it comes to short form content 0:06:10.995,0:06:14.624 is that a lot of people[br]try to overdo this or flashy ideas, 0:06:14.624,0:06:17.126 try to do crazy captions[br]of sound effects and things like that. 0:06:17.335,0:06:20.797 But some of the most viral clips[br]that I've seen online 0:06:21.130,0:06:23.216 don't have any flashy editing at all. 0:06:23.216,0:06:24.884 The person has just found 0:06:24.884,0:06:27.845 a clip from a video[br]or from a podcast or something 0:06:27.845,0:06:29.806 like that,[br]which they know will go viral. 0:06:29.806,0:06:31.766 They've gone through the effort[br]of figuring out 0:06:31.766,0:06:35.645 what can work on places[br]like Instagram and TikTok tutoring. 0:06:35.645,0:06:37.021 So this is a perfect mind 0:06:37.021,0:06:39.690 for anyone who is also a student,[br]because I've always said 0:06:40.024,0:06:43.444 that the best person to teach[br]another person is another person 0:06:43.444,0:06:46.531 who's also learning that same thing,[br]but only a few steps ahead. 0:06:46.572,0:06:48.491 I found that people who are already[br]very, 0:06:48.491,0:06:52.412 very knowledgeable in a subject,[br]I'm actually great teachers 0:06:52.662,0:06:55.748 because they're already way too far[br]and maybe they learn the basics 0:06:55.748,0:06:56.666 or something. 0:06:56.666,0:06:59.377 Years ago, decades ago,[br]and now teaching someone 0:06:59.544,0:07:02.588 who is completely new to the subject[br]can actually be very, very difficult 0:07:02.630,0:07:05.091 because they're thinking years ahead[br]whilst this new beginner, 0:07:05.091,0:07:07.301 this person is just starting to learn[br]the subject 0:07:07.301,0:07:09.303 is trying to just learn[br]the fundamentals and the basics 0:07:09.345,0:07:12.348 so it can be quite hard[br]for those two people to really learn 0:07:12.348,0:07:12.890 from each other. 0:07:12.890,0:07:16.102 The best person to learn from[br]is someone who's just a few steps 0:07:16.102,0:07:16.686 ahead of you. 0:07:16.686,0:07:17.228 And the great thing 0:07:17.228,0:07:20.148 about something like this is[br]that you don't need to be an expert. 0:07:20.148,0:07:23.943 Like you don't need to know everything[br]about a certain subject to teach it. 0:07:24.277,0:07:27.405 And I think that's why tutoring[br]is actually such a great way 0:07:27.405,0:07:28.364 to make money, 0:07:28.364,0:07:30.658 because a lot of people fall[br]into the trap of thinking 0:07:30.783,0:07:32.326 that they need[br]to be an expert in a subject 0:07:32.326,0:07:33.286 and they need to know everything 0:07:33.286,0:07:35.621 about this certain subject[br]to teach it to someone else. 0:07:35.913,0:07:37.748 And yeah,[br]it just really isn't the case. 0:07:37.748,0:07:39.625 So if you're someone who's[br]also a beginner 0:07:39.625,0:07:41.919 who wants to make some money,[br]he wants to be able to 0:07:42.336,0:07:44.213 you can make a lot of money[br]doing this. 0:07:44.213,0:07:46.966 You're in the perfect position[br]to also teach someone else. 0:07:46.966,0:07:49.927 The great thing about this[br]is that if you want someone 0:07:49.927,0:07:52.638 who happens to be at university[br]and you're watching this video, 0:07:52.930,0:07:55.266 you can be someone who's teaching[br]multiple people. 0:07:55.433,0:07:57.226 So you can have your own class. 0:07:57.226,0:07:59.645 You can teach multiple students[br]most people at the same time, 0:07:59.645,0:08:02.356 and you can charge them[br]all the same way, really. 0:08:02.356,0:08:04.650 So maximising your income,[br]scaling your income, 0:08:04.775,0:08:06.819 this is such a great way[br]to scaling income, 0:08:07.069,0:08:09.280 having lots of people[br]that you can teach at the same time. 0:08:09.280,0:08:10.573 And then if you want to take it 0:08:10.573,0:08:12.492 up a notch,[br]you want to take it to the next level. 0:08:12.492,0:08:13.784 You can make courses. 0:08:13.784,0:08:16.120 Digital courses especially are such 0:08:16.245,0:08:18.247 great businesses and so many people 0:08:18.247,0:08:20.833 who have digital courses[br]that are teaching stuff online. 0:08:21.083,0:08:22.793 They put a curriculum together 0:08:22.793,0:08:24.795 and they're making absolute bank 0:08:25.046,0:08:27.256 because it's such a scalable business 0:08:27.256,0:08:30.218 and you're not necessarily limited[br]to a number of students in a class. 0:08:30.384,0:08:32.595 You can really just sell it[br]to as many people as you like. 0:08:32.803,0:08:34.805 I have my own course video credit,[br]of course dot com, 0:08:35.056,0:08:35.890 and it makes great money. 0:08:35.890,0:08:37.433 I still just have it[br]sitting in the background. 0:08:37.433,0:08:37.892 It's all about 0:08:37.892,0:08:40.895 how to make high quality videos,[br]not necessarily for YouTube, 0:08:41.145,0:08:43.231 but just making high quality[br]videos in general. 0:08:43.231,0:08:45.316 And yeah, the great thing about it is[br]that it's 0:08:45.316,0:08:47.443 all just making money[br]passively in the background. 0:08:47.443,0:08:49.028 But there are creators out there 0:08:49.028,0:08:51.656 who have turned courses[br]into fully fledged businesses 0:08:51.656,0:08:54.283 that are just making millions,[br]like making millions. 0:08:54.283,0:08:58.621 It's absolutely insane because people[br]are willing to pay for knowledge. 0:08:58.621,0:09:00.414 That's the most valuable thing[br]about courses. 0:09:00.414,0:09:02.875 If you can teach something[br]that's valuable to other people 0:09:03.125,0:09:06.337 where they can use it to[br]maybe make their life better, 0:09:06.546,0:09:08.256 maybe make relationships, love 0:09:08.256,0:09:10.299 whatever might better make them money. 0:09:10.299,0:09:13.219 So those three things happiness,[br]love, money. 0:09:13.261,0:09:14.262 If you can take something 0:09:14.262,0:09:16.430 that takes advantage[br]of one of those three things, 0:09:16.430,0:09:17.765 you can make a lot of money. 0:09:17.765,0:09:18.808 I found with courses 0:09:18.808,0:09:21.185 the people who are looking to[br]buy, courses 0:09:21.185,0:09:24.772 that are looking to learn stuff[br]from courses they're looking for, 0:09:24.814,0:09:28.067 the money details are looking[br]for the fun in details and things 0:09:28.276,0:09:30.861 because they want to see[br]how other people are doing it. 0:09:30.861,0:09:32.780 They want to see systems and processes 0:09:32.780,0:09:34.991 in place[br]that has worked for someone else 0:09:34.991,0:09:37.660 and they want to see if they can apply[br]the same systems and processes 0:09:38.077,0:09:41.080 to their own sort of way of life,[br]their own way of doing things. 0:09:41.080,0:09:43.332 Gym workouts[br]are a perfect example of this. 0:09:43.583,0:09:46.752 If you see someone who you think, Wow,[br]they look incredible, 0:09:46.752,0:09:49.547 you might also be interested in[br]How can I look like that? 0:09:49.797,0:09:52.675 So if that person had a course,[br]if they shared their gym routine, 0:09:52.967,0:09:56.095 you're obviously going to look at it[br]and you're going to think, okay, let's 0:09:56.095,0:09:58.806 see what they're doing and maybe I'm[br]missing out on something. 0:09:58.806,0:10:00.683 Maybe I'm not doing something right[br]because clearly 0:10:00.683,0:10:02.852 they're doing something right[br]that I'm not doing right now. 0:10:02.893,0:10:04.145 Social media management. 0:10:04.145,0:10:06.230 So this is one[br]I've covered in the channel before, 0:10:06.230,0:10:08.232 but there are so many businesses[br]out there, 0:10:08.232,0:10:11.485 especially businesses[br]run by older people who you could say 0:10:11.777,0:10:13.696 who just have no clue[br]about social media. 0:10:13.696,0:10:15.489 They don't know anything[br]about his found TikTok 0:10:15.489,0:10:17.533 YouTube[br]or any of these social platforms. 0:10:17.533,0:10:19.910 They don't know what it takes[br]to make content. 0:10:20.036,0:10:21.370 They don't know how to publish content 0:10:21.370,0:10:23.497 that I know[br]what type of content to make. 0:10:23.497,0:10:24.790 And it's not just older people. 0:10:24.790,0:10:25.833 They're also people, 0:10:25.833,0:10:28.836 young people who don't really have[br]any idea of social media. 0:10:29.295,0:10:31.297 These businesses,[br]these sorts of people, 0:10:31.297,0:10:34.508 they are usually willing[br]to pay someone else to do it for them. 0:10:34.717,0:10:35.676 And that's the whole point. 0:10:35.676,0:10:37.637 If you can take the pain away[br]from someone else 0:10:37.637,0:10:40.264 and also make their lives better,[br]make them more money, 0:10:40.514,0:10:42.975 you can charge big money[br]for social media management. 0:10:43.059,0:10:46.187 The great thing about this business[br]is that it is somewhat scalable. 0:10:46.395,0:10:48.606 So if you have systems[br]and processes in place, 0:10:48.606,0:10:50.232 there's no reason[br]why you can have three 0:10:50.232,0:10:52.151 or four or five businesses[br]where you're charging 0:10:52.151,0:10:54.528 maybe,[br]you know, between 2 to $5000 a month, 0:10:54.528,0:10:57.490 maybe even $10,000 a month, depending[br]on how much you're doing for them. 0:10:57.698,0:11:00.743 You can also hire other people to come[br]in and help you with those things. 0:11:00.743,0:11:02.370 It's such a great way[br]to build a business 0:11:02.370,0:11:04.580 that can make quite a lot of money[br]quite quickly. 0:11:04.872,0:11:06.707 If you're someone[br]who is social media savvy, 0:11:06.707,0:11:07.958 I think it makes a lot of sense. 0:11:07.958,0:11:11.045 One angle that I would take with this,[br]which is what I mentioned earlier 0:11:11.045,0:11:12.880 on in the video,[br]if you can show a client 0:11:12.880,0:11:15.424 or a business,[br]whoever you're selling your skills to, 0:11:15.675,0:11:18.135 that you're either bringing in fees[br]or you're making them money. 0:11:18.761,0:11:21.681 Them going to be more[br]than willing to pay for your services. 0:11:21.722,0:11:24.975 Next up, we have you want us[br]design and website creation. 0:11:24.975,0:11:27.603 So well before I started doing YouTube[br]and so making money 0:11:27.603,0:11:29.855 from YouTube, my main source of income 0:11:30.022,0:11:32.983 was UI, UX design[br]and making websites for clients. 0:11:33.401,0:11:36.153 And let me tell you,[br]I made a lot of money doing that. 0:11:36.153,0:11:38.572 It was just[br]one of the best things that I ever did 0:11:38.572,0:11:40.241 is one of the best skills[br]I ever learned. 0:11:40.241,0:11:43.035 I made a lot of money and very,[br]very quickly, a few years 0:11:43.035,0:11:44.954 into my career, I was charging 0:11:44.954,0:11:47.248 $500 to $1000 a day 0:11:47.248,0:11:49.208 for my services,[br]depending on the client, 0:11:49.208,0:11:51.460 depending on the business,[br]depending on what they needed. 0:11:51.460,0:11:54.463 And I remember thinking[br]at the time, like, holy moly, 0:11:54.463,0:11:58.509 I can't believe I'm charging[br]$1,000 a day for my time. 0:11:58.843,0:12:01.804 Obviously I'm selling my time,[br]but still it's $1,000 0:12:01.804,0:12:03.848 like I was in my early twenties,[br]mid twenties. 0:12:03.848,0:12:05.683 And I think to myself,[br]this is outrageous. 0:12:05.683,0:12:06.851 Like $1,000 today. 0:12:06.851,0:12:08.853 I did have some imposter[br]syndrome back then. 0:12:08.853,0:12:11.605 So I was thinking to myself, I can't[br]believe I'm charging $1,000 a day. 0:12:11.605,0:12:15.025 But now when I think back, the reason[br]why I was charging $1,000 0:12:15.025,0:12:19.071 a day was because those sorts[br]of skills just wasn't that common. 0:12:19.280,0:12:20.781 Not a lot of people had those skills. 0:12:20.781,0:12:23.367 Not a lot of people had the style[br]that I had when it came to 0:12:23.534,0:12:25.327 UI UX design and making websites. 0:12:25.327,0:12:26.620 And that's the one thing I realised 0:12:26.620,0:12:28.748 from nearly all of the clients[br]that hired me. 0:12:28.914,0:12:31.333 They were looking[br]for my specific style 0:12:31.667,0:12:34.044 and that's[br]what's so important about you, 0:12:34.044,0:12:37.173 why you design a website creation,[br]having a style that's pretty unique 0:12:37.173,0:12:39.967 but also very refined[br]and can deliver results. 0:12:39.967,0:12:42.845 The other thing is most people[br]just aren't that technical. 0:12:42.845,0:12:45.097 They don't want to be messing around,[br]spending time 0:12:45.306,0:12:48.309 learning how to use figma,[br]which is what I use to design 0:12:48.517,0:12:52.271 and using things like framer or[br]learning how to code to make websites. 0:12:52.271,0:12:54.982 Just like with social media[br]management, mice, businesses, 0:12:55.149,0:12:57.318 they don't want to be focusing[br]on making a website. 0:12:57.318,0:12:59.111 They don't want to be running[br]a website, nothing like that. 0:12:59.111,0:13:00.946 They would much rather pay[br]someone else to do it. 0:13:00.946,0:13:03.908 And the great thing about websites[br]is that we know they make money 0:13:04.033,0:13:04.784 like that. 0:13:04.784,0:13:07.369 A good face for a business,[br]whether it's like a restaurant, 0:13:07.369,0:13:09.288 whether it's an e-commerce site[br]or whatever it might be. 0:13:09.288,0:13:11.248 We know it's a way for people to look 0:13:11.248,0:13:14.168 for that business online[br]and for that business to make money. 0:13:14.543,0:13:16.921 And you could even take it[br]a step further. 0:13:16.921,0:13:18.881 You can go to the business[br]and be like, Look, 0:13:18.881,0:13:20.800 I will make your website for free. 0:13:20.800,0:13:23.177 However, any clients I get for you,[br]any customers 0:13:23.385,0:13:25.721 I get for you through the website,[br]I take a cut. 0:13:25.721,0:13:28.974 Maybe it's 5%, 10%, 20%,[br]whatever it might be. 0:13:29.225,0:13:31.602 That's such a good way[br]to make a lot of money. 0:13:31.644,0:13:33.521 This is also a very scalable business 0:13:33.521,0:13:36.732 because once you've made a website,[br]you could just charge a retainer fee. 0:13:36.816,0:13:39.777 You can also hire other people[br]to come in to manage websites, 0:13:39.777,0:13:42.071 to make websites with you,[br]to make websites for your clients. 0:13:42.279,0:13:43.864 It's just a very scalable business. 0:13:43.864,0:13:46.033 And there are so many companies,[br]so many agencies out there 0:13:46.033,0:13:48.369 that we already know[br]are making millions doing this. 0:13:48.369,0:13:50.579 Another thing[br]that's become very popular is just 0:13:50.579,0:13:53.999 charging businesses on a monthly basis[br]a retainer, essentially. 0:13:54.250,0:13:57.586 And Darrel, a designer[br]who shares his work on Twitter, 0:13:57.878,0:14:00.798 he runs a design[br]agency called Endless Dot 0:14:00.798,0:14:04.426 Design,[br]where he charges $8,000 a month. 0:14:04.718,0:14:07.930 And he's doing incredibly[br]well from the information on Twitter. 0:14:08.055,0:14:10.307 And it's a simple retainer package[br]that gives 0:14:10.558,0:14:12.685 you basically a one design lead. 0:14:12.685,0:14:16.230 One seeing the design on five days[br]a week, one request at a time, 0:14:16.230,0:14:19.483 you get an unlimited amount[br]of design work in that time. 0:14:19.692,0:14:22.027 Dedicated Slack[br]Channel Unlimited revisions 0:14:22.236,0:14:25.155 and a 40 hour delivery,[br]and he's charging $8,000 a month. 0:14:25.155,0:14:27.157 And you can see[br]he only has one spot left already. 0:14:27.366,0:14:30.494 So people are clearly paying for this[br]and he's making a lot of money. 0:14:30.494,0:14:32.705 And like I said, if you have[br]other people in the business, 0:14:32.872,0:14:35.791 you can have more and more spots,[br]you can have more availability 0:14:35.791,0:14:36.792 for clients. 0:14:36.792,0:14:38.878 This is a fantastic way to make money. 0:14:38.878,0:14:41.922 And like I said, it's[br]how I used to make money 0:14:41.922,0:14:44.508 before I made YouTube videos[br]and I made a lot of money doing it. 0:14:44.508,0:14:47.052 I made a couple of million[br]doing this whole thing. 0:14:47.094,0:14:48.178 That's for this video. 0:14:48.178,0:14:49.763 Hopefully you guys enjoyed it. 0:14:49.763,0:14:52.558 As you can see, I am in a new setup. 0:14:52.558,0:14:53.684 I have a completely new setup. 0:14:53.684,0:14:56.061 This is in my new office in Dubai. 0:14:56.562,0:14:58.230 I still have a few things[br]I enjoy, said. 0:14:58.230,0:15:01.317 I still have a few things[br]I sought out like my microphone. 0:15:01.317,0:15:03.694 I'm using this lava lamp[br]like most DJI, 0:15:03.694,0:15:06.322 like instead of my podcast, my[br]I made my podcast. 0:15:06.322,0:15:07.406 Like I need it to come on. 0:15:07.406,0:15:09.283 So I'm just waiting for things[br]to set up. 0:15:09.283,0:15:11.994 I'm shipping a lot of things[br]from the UK to Dubai, 0:15:11.994,0:15:13.662 so I'm waiting for things to arrive. 0:15:13.662,0:15:15.998 So yeah, things will go back[br]to normal, 0:15:15.998,0:15:18.083 the high quality[br]order will go back to normal. 0:15:18.375,0:15:19.793 Hopefully you guys enjoyed it. 0:15:19.793,0:15:21.670 Follow me on Instagram and Twitter[br]where I'll be sharing a lot 0:15:21.670,0:15:23.756 more updates and subscribe for more.
