She Earned $9491 From This YouTube Video
A recent video from Mary Spender…
Mary is a musician and YouTuber who posts videos of her original songs, guitar playing, and music-related commentary 🎶
Per the video, she reveals how her…
66 videos of original music [with about] 4.7 million views
… earned her $5969 🤑
Whereas…
1 video of a guitar [review] with about 5.3 million views
… earned her $9491 💰
Mary says of the review video…
It's a 13-minute video, so it has plenty of time for ad breaks, and YouTube likes it when you make people stick around.
This is much harder to do with a single song that's just three and a half minutes long.
She adds…
If you're putting your original music on YouTube, try out different ways of building a video around your song.
You could try breaking down the stems for those making their own music, or teaching the guitar parts, talking about the writing process, or giving some background to the lyrics…
It's all promotion for you and your music, but it's a new and different type of promotion.
Also, it seems ads aren't the only way Mary monetizes her videos 😎
Checking the description on her review video you can see that she's also monetizing via…
Touring
Online courses
Patreon
CD sales
Streaming
Affiliate Marketing
(Checking out her Patreon: Mary currently has 640 paid members, each paying her at least $5/month. So she's likely earning at least $3,200 per month there.)
My main takeaway from Mary is that it's hard to make money purely from entertainment content.
Generally it’s easier to make money from informational content that helps people in some way.
In the case of Mary's review video, she's helping viewers make a buying decision 🤔
That said, the holy grail seems to be informational content that's also entertaining.
Someone like Kat Norton strikes that balance well, teaching Excel in a fun way, to the point where she was able to earn $100,000+ in one day 🤯
An Encyclopedia for Making Money Online
Today's email is brought to you by Proven Amazon Course 👈
That's the top-rated Amazon course on my site, with 30+ glowing reviews from students 🤩
One student calls it…
An encyclopedia on making money by using the internet creatively… The wealth of information and kindness in that group is next to none. I had my account for about 5 months and ended the year at $64k.
Lots of Amazon courses are super-expensive and underwhelming. Proven Amazon Course is the opposite, with the price set at only $39/month and offering a ridiculous amount of value.
Productized Service Ideas for 2024
Joe Davis is the co-founder of FATJOE, self-described as…
one of the world’s largest providers of outsourced Link Building, Digital PR, SEO Services, Content Creation and Design and Video services.
Joe has apparently “sold over $70m agency services” 😎
In a recent video, he shares his insights on 10 productized services you could offer.
For example…
🔗 Link building for businesses
📝 Content creation services
🌐 Digital PR that offers value beyond just link building.
🤖 AI services like setting up public and internal chatbots.
📈 Lead generation services which are in demand and easy to demonstrate value.
🎨 Design services like DesignJoy but maybe with a different focus point.
You could get started with this kind of thing by going local first.
Try this approach…
Get that working on a small scale, as a side-hustle, then build it bigger.
Another idea here 👇
While I was researching this story, I saw that FATJOE has a reseller program.
You could sign up for that and sell under your own brand. They fulfill services such as link building, SEO, digital PR, etc.
Ideal if you like selling but not fulfillment 👍
(To be clear: I have no affiliation with the FATJOE reseller program, not even sure if they do good work. Just something that might be worth checking out. There are surely many alternatives out there too.)
🗂 $96,800 Last Year Selling SEO Services on Fiverr
From the archive, published May 2023…
That’s Terry O’Connor, see his Fiverr profile here 👈
Terry is a friend of mine and he kindly shared some details of his Fiverr journey via DM…
Started on Fiverr midway through 2020
$1760 earned the first 6 months
$23,900 earned in 2021
Qualified for Fiverr Pro Jan 2022
$96,800 earned in 2022
Last August alone he pulled in more than $14,000 from his Fiverr gigs 💰
And he did all that on the side while working a full-time job.
Terry has been doing web design and SEO work for many years, but often struggled to find clients. He told me that Fiverr has solved his “foot traffic” issue.
Now, instead of trying to find clients to offer his services to, the clients come to him via Fiverr: Terry’s profile has 200,000+ impressions to date and 56% of clients have left reviews 👍
To get started, Terry modeled his Fiverr job listings and thumbnails after other successful Fiverr sellers, such as…
It’s a simple hack: find someone who’s achieved what you want to achieve, and emulate their approach 🧐
The hard part is sticking with it long enough to get good and see results.
