Passive Income for Life
No one likes to work with angry boss and when you need to travel a lot, get stuck in traffic to enjoy that one vacation per year. It’s going to be the worst nightmare! Even after all these struggle, you cannot be happy with little earnings and now you can make a lot with YouTube. I am not compelling you to quit your job but make enough money work for you. Don’t run behind money all the time just make money run to you. Enjoy time with your friends and family, when was the last time you went out for dinner? When was the last time you called your old friend?
You need to have that free mind, when I went to the tech conference and met few fresh graduates, I was devastated. Because they got no clue on how to earn money, how to get a job or how to talk to someone! Earning money should be easy and you are an entrepreneur, never be the greedy guy who always thinks of money and being stringent. Earn your friends and you can make money easily, the online world has changed our lives from tinder to Uber but some things never change. Love, friendship and gratitude never change after amount of rapid growth in technology. Earn your subscribers and you can earn enough money.
How should you start making your first dollar? I made my first dollar after 154 videos and it wasn’t easy initially. You need to get the 10k views on your videos to run ads on your videos. YouTube pays a lot of money to artists, freelance developers, news reporters, teachers and many more. You can be the next YouTube marketer and of course everyone will in 2020. You should have started earlier but there is still hope to earn that 1000$ every month. Yes it’s possible!
Every top website is a marketplace and there is a huge opportunity to make more money. Just get the ideas in your head, approach the right people and get it done. Do things on time, what I recommend most You Tubers is to post one great video each day and you will make 300 videos every year. If you plan 2 videos each day, you get 600 videos in one year that’s a lot. You can use the weekends to post 5 to 10 videos, this is going to be awesome if you follow the basics.
Your time and ideas are the investment here and I will guide you about the things you should learn. There are some courses that you should take to be successful. No one is rich overnight and it’s a long term process, it can take 3 years to 20 years depending on one’s effort and people around. You train your mind to be rich and you become rich, you put the calculated efforts and you become rich. Have a plan and that is achievable which gets you complete your long term goal.
I found YouTube or video marketing is an awesome way to make money in your free time. You should be regular and you should be the early bird. Back in 2007, no one knew about YouTube and still in 2010, you missed the opportunity. If you are skillful and disciplined, you can enjoy the richness in another 3 to 5 years. This is going to be simple and if I can then you can too!
Each one has their style and they follow their passion. We all work 9 to 5 and get paid end of the month but we are still not satisfied and sad most times. Get motivated, just keep doing and never lose that speed. Many people start with 10 videos daily but suddenly they break the chain and quit posting the videos. Some are lucky to get paid through ads and some lose their revenue.
Earn your subscribers first and that can get you going. My plan is post one video daily and share on different platforms. You should need to market more to get more followers, it’s easy with practice. Some time you will not get any idea about making the video, what is the content for my video? The goal is to keep doing things daily and you will get rewarded. Ideas would come to you, just read more and keep posting.
Look at the top 5 YouTubers in the world, how do they earn money? The early bird catches the worm; it was good earlier but now nothing. I hear this from most freelancers, photographers and almost everyone. You are just procrastinating, there are opportunities each day. You just have to be motivated and have to be skillful; you need to create a video daily, market it and rank it better. You will learn about ranking your YouTube video easily and promoting on different websites.
If someone is successful, look at his/her habits. You just need that motivation to win and earn more. It all starts in the mind; you can be that smart guy and believe you can achieve more. Each one has their own style. Someone is good at cooking, another one is good at singing, use your talents to reach more customers. The only mistake we all do is not waking up early and getting ready to work, yeah your morning rituals. You should blame your failures to yourself alone and no one else. Even if you are a freelancer, still follow your healthy habits.
If you start your day with happy mood, your day becomes wonderful. If you start your day with a sad face, you feel dull and less motivated. Look at successful people they are all motivated and energetic. It’s in the mind and body, it’s being systematic. Never do too much work nor be lazy, just go with the flow. Have a systematic plan to complete one video a day or just one video a week, learn more on how to promote it and get more views (Earning subscribers)
Each one has their favorite niche and it’s tough to tell what you like. You need to find your passion, it can be anything and you should just keep doing. In YouTube marketing, the most important thing is the name and when selecting the name, just be sure it’s easy and simple. People don’t want to remember lengthy names and it’s tough. Choose a name that makes your niche. If it’s cooking then choose 101 cooking or something with the name “cooking” then its fine. But if you are not sure to choose the right name, you can hire copywriter online who will guide you to select the right name. You can try around keyword search to find what people actually search for.
In my opinion, cooking and gaming are the top niches. Because lots of people are going to search for these things every day, it has proven in the past and so in the future there will good customer attraction for these niches. Moreover it’s easy than any other niche, people are interested in food, gaming and movie reviews. As you know YouTube is used for entertainment more and the core business is entertainment. Apart from this, you can try hands on mobile review which is fantastic. You need a mobile and you have to review it. You need to explain why a user has to purchase the mobile. It’s going to be easy when you start reviewing 10 mobiles or more. Make it a practice every month to review mobiles, you can find the mobile from the shop. Include the credits for the shop who gives you mobile each month. Another idea that most women would love is the beauty tips.
Start a channel explaining about the beauty tips and makeups for women. This can be wonderful and you will start getting more followers. The easiest and ever in demand option, start now and follow your routine to post videos daily. Lot of people love to wear new makeup and they have no clue, you need to solve those people’s demands. You can do the affiliate marketing with YouTube, which is very simple.
Add the affiliate link to each video and it’s fantastic. There will be conversion when your content is really awesome and if it’s the first product of its kind. Your customers should find it attractive and find it new, you need to keep them happy and you need to deliver more value than what they expect. Don’t skip the routine and keep posting videos, sometimes you might get negative comments but just continue to do videos each day. You are training your subscribers about the latest happening; you are making them excited to buy things. You are either selling products directly or providing service or making commission. Sell genuinely and you will be rewarded.

Laptop & Microphone
Any laptop is fine and it costs 500$ minimum to buy a laptop with 4GB RAM. You will need a private space to record videos daily. Any normal microphone will be good and sometimes buzzing sound from your laptop would make the video quality bad. So check for the clarity of sound recording every time.
