Hey there,

​

So you started creating content.

But you are not sure if it would be sustainable.

You don’t know how to earn those dollars that everyone seems to be earning.

​

There are people who’d claim that you can make money in the next 7 days.

But it’s important to note that people pay for the value you bring for the skills and experience you have.

​

If you don’t have skills and you don’t have any results, it’s highly unlikely you will earn in the next 7 or 30 days.

That’s why we are taking 90 days as a buffer.

If you have skills and experience, you could get started much quicker.

​

All right so here are three ways to get started with earning money in the next 30 days.

(And I have tested all three of them.)

​

Let’s get started.

​

• Services: Businesses need services to perform different functions like research, brand strategy, marketing, sales and even recruitment.
  • If you have a skill that can help other businesses, you can offer it in exchange for money.
  • You could do Social media marketing, video editing, graphic design, content writing, logo design, and web development.
  • Take a look here to view different services:https://www.wizcase.com/blog/top-in-demand-freelance-skills-to-learn/
  • And how to get clients? Hop on to LinkedIn and start sending cold DMs to decision-makers (CEOs, CMOs, Founders etc.) of businesses in your target niche. Here’s a sample cold DM:

• Don’t stop after sending 20-30 DMs. It's about the volume. Send at least a 100 before you give up.

​

• Courses: If you have spent 90 days going deeper into a particular niche, you already know more than an average person on the internet.
  • You can also use Kajabi, Graphy, Skillshare, Thinkific etc.
  • There’s no right or wrong platform.
  • You would have to compare them and see which one fits perfectly with your needs.
  • Just know that a course will take a bit longer to shoot and edit the videos.
  • You could make a mini-course with a duration of 1-2 hours to keep it simple.
  • Alternatively, you can sell e-books on Gumroad without troubling yourself with shooting and editing videos.

​

• Consultation: If you are an expert in your niche, and your expertise can help businesses to scale, sell, market or grow on social, you can provide them with an hourly consultation and charge anywhere between $50 - $250 depending on the level of your experience.
  • I’ve seen some consultants book 4 calls per month valued at $100 each.
  • So by the end of a month, they have an additional $400 in their account.
  • You can use Razorpay to set up a landing page for free and connect it with Calendly so people can book calls with you as per mutual availability.

​

Important side notes:

• People won’t know you provide services or sell courses if you don’t tell them.
• No one would purchase your services if you have just started creating content. These things take time to compound.
• Once you start building an audience, you will see common problems and questions pop up again and again. That’s your clue to double down and solve that specific problem with your services.

​

So there you have three dead simple ways to earn money in the next 90 days.

They worked for me, they have worked for countless others and they can work for you as well.
