in this video I'm going to write 9 passive income ideas based on how hard it is to get started and how hard it is to maintain and make money from it these days I've been averaging around 30k USC dollars to 40K monthly and by end of the year we're expecting to reach 50k USD per month a couple of years ago I used to think that only way to make a lot of money was becoming a doctor engineer or a lawyer and that's completely a myth and there's so many ways you can also make ten thousand
dollars per month with the right approach so whether you're working a nine to five and want some passive income on the side or you're looking to start a new side hustle and maybe eventually quit your nine to five job this is the perfect video before we begin I want to inform you that I recently launched my new skillshare class on how to effectively learn languages the link to my free course is included in the description and this video is sponsored by skillshare and I will provide more information about it later I wanted to promote my
own class because I believe it's genuinely helpful and enjoyable for people the class offers tips on learning a new language in your spare time now let's begin the video to make things easier to understand let's clear out what passive income is despite what people would like to think passive income is not like you're doing nothing and money grows on the trees it's more like you do a certain work up front or set a system that generates income over time with minimal ongoing effort I'm not saying no effort the key concept is that once the initial
work is done the income continues to flow without requiring constant active involvement in other words you're not exchanging your time for money directly so think about writing a book to write a book you need to spend a lot of time in the beginning but once it's published you don't necessarily need to continue writing to generate income that is called passive income investing in the stock market is an investment method that everyone needs to consider in my opinion it's super easy and much better than putting your money in a bank and waiting for it to lose
its value by investing in the stock market you have the potential to earn much higher Returns on your investment after you have your emergency fund of six to eight months aside just in case something happens start investing and make it a habit index funds are close to safer investment option as they track the performance of the overall Market rather than individual stocks but depending on your risk tolerance you may also want to consider investing in crypto by investing in the stock market you're not only earning passive income but you're also giving your money the opportunity
to grow over time this is important because inflation can cause the value of your money to decrease over time by investing in the stock market you are predicting your wealth and giving yourself the potential to earn even more affiliate programs are a popular way to earn passive income they allow you to earn a commission by promoting other people's products companies like Amazon and IQ links the keyboard that I use have affiliate programs that you can join for free once you join you can promote their products by sharing special links when someone clicks on your link
and makes a purchase you earn a commission getting started is super easy you just sign up for a program like Amazon Affiliates and it paste the links into your blog social media YouTube page newsletter or whatever platform you're using the tricky part of affiliate marketing is driving traffic to your links and convincing people to make a purchase this process can take time and effort especially if you're starting from scratch with no audience but with the right strategies such as like high quality content building community that trusts you you can attract more traffic to your links
and potentially earn a substantial income maintenance is super easy you just need to paste links every year I make like a little bit of money from my affiliate links by simply mentioning the products I use and love such as my desk setup keyboards and services creating digital products like notion templates good notes digital planners and ebooks is an effective way to generate passive income once created these products can be sold multiple times without any additional work resulting in a continuous stream of income for example Thomas Frank a famous YouTuber with almost 3 million subscribers abandoned
his main Channel and focus on his second Channel which has only like 174k subscribers to sell notion templates last year he earned over 1 million dollars in revenue from selling these templates the difficulty of starting depends on your family familiarity familiarity with creating these types of digital products if you're already tech savvy and familiar with tools like notion and good notes getting started can be relatively easy but if you're new to these platforms it might take some time to get up to speed writing an ebook requires an in-depth knowledge of your subject and the ability
to effectively communicate your ideas it can be a significant time investment especially if you're aiming for a high quality comprehensive but the challenge in making money from digital products lies in the marketing and gaining visibility in a crowded Marketplace platforms like Etsy and gumroad can help you solve your products but you will need to actively promote them to drive sales as with affiliate marketing the key here is driving traffic to your products this can be done by leveraging SEO social media email marketing or maybe paid advertising like Google ads you'll also need to keep your
product updated to ensure they remain relevant and appealing to the customers the effort required for maintenance is minimal once the product is created it doesn't require much upkeep but you may need to update your products occasionally based on customer feedback or change changes in the platform they're designed for so this option can be a profitable winter if you have the expertise and create valuable digital products and the marketing skills to promote them effectively creating online courses is a powerful way to diversify your income platforms like skillshare provide an incredible opportunity for anyone with a unique

ever showing your face or revealing your personal details making it a great platform for who value privacy starting a Twitter account is as simple as signing up choosing a handle creating your profile Begin by sharing relevant valuable content and engage with others in your industry or interest area and if you don't follow me on Twitter make sure to follow me maintaining a Twitter account can be as easy as hard as you make it it can be as simple as tweeting a few times a day or as complex as managing a Content calendar and making strategies
around trending topics to make money you'll need to build a sizable engaged audience this can take time and consistent effort once you have an audience you can monetize through various methods this can include promoting affiliate products selling your own digital products sponsor tweets or even offering paid subscriptions through Twitter's new super Fallout future where followers pay for exclusive content with the right approach and consistent effort Twitter can become a profitable side hustle or even a main source of income it's all about providing value to your followers and building a community around your content Instagram and
Tick Tock have became key players in the world of passive income both platforms have massive user base providing an excellent opportunity to reach wide audience and diversify your income starting on these platforms is obviously really easy like Twitter and other platforms but growing your following can be challenging you'll need to create unique engaging content that appeals to your target audience and the difficulty of these platforms is that due to the nature of these platforms favoring short form content it can be quite labor intensive to maintain your presence unlike long-form content like YouTube where one video
a week might suffice to make significant impact on Instagram or Tick Tock you ideally need to show up five to seven times a week it is quite time consuming and requires a solid content strategy so that you won't burn out making money on these platforms can also be challenging particularly since they don't have built-in monetization features like YouTube but if leveraged correctly Instagram tiktok can open doors for other income sources like affiliate marketing sponsored posts and selling your own products or online courses both Instagram and Tick Tock are powerful tools to build an audience and
by extension a source of passive income they allow you to establish a Personal Collection with your followers who can get to know who you are and what you stand for this familiarity can make them more willing to purchase products or Services you recommend or you create as opposed to buying from an unknown person from online even though it's hard work the potential rewards make it worth considering these Platforms in your passive income strategy remember the key to succeed on these platforms is consistent engaging content authentic interactions with your audience starting a YouTube channel is straightforward
but creating content that stands Out Among the vast amount of the videos on the platform can be quite challenging high quality videos are crucial for gaining viewership while you don't necessarily need super expensive gear to get started investing in decent lighting and ensuring good sound quality can make a significant difference in the viewer experience also creating YouTube channel isn't about just filming it's about comprehensive process involving research scripting filming editing and creating good thumbnails all of this takes quite a lot of time and effort actually consistency is key on YouTube to build and retain an
audience you need to regularly upload new videos but the potential rewards are also you know because of the long form content nature viewers on YouTube can form a deeper connection with creators which can lead to a higher engagement and potentially more Revenue compared to short form content monetizing on YouTube can come through multiple ways like ad Revenue sponsorships affiliate links and promoting your own products or Services giving coaching a lot of different things and in my own Journey YouTube has played a significant role I've been trying to become a YouTuber since 2016 but initially I
didn't gain much traction despite posting a lot of videos but everything changed in 2020 when I decided to study the platform and take my content creation seriously and thanks to that but we managed to gain 100K subscribers in just 3 months and hit the 1 million subscribers in only two years becoming a successful YouTuber isn't about luck it's about understanding the platform and creating content that your audience values although it requires consistency and time with the right approach anyone can find success on YouTube for those interested in learning more about how to grow on YouTube
