Hey, it's Niall

🚨 Quick Update! I’ve just opened up a few more spots for 1-on-1 consulting calls in April.

If you’re:

  • Stuck choosing the right business idea

  • Unsure what to focus on

  • Or just want a clear, personalized plan for building your online business

This is for you.

During the 50-minute Zoom session, we’ll:

 āœ… Brainstorm ideas tailored to your skills and goals
 āœ… Choose the most promising path
 āœ… Map out a step-by-step action plan
 āœ… Work through any blocks holding you back
 āœ… And you’ll get a full recording + notes afterward

I've been building my own businesses for 15 years — and have helped 450+ people with freelancing, digital products, affiliate marketing, niche websites, and more.

All that to say: You don’t have to do this alone — and I’d love to help you get unstuck.

I also get a lot of questions about what these calls are like, so I’ve updated the consulting page with more info. There, you'll find:

  • Answers to common questions

  • Real feedback from people I’ve helped

  • And my viral 7 Years as a Digital Nomad video (1M+ views on Facebook!)

Spots are limited, as I only have time for a few more calls this month.

Let’s talk — and get you unstuck.

Alright, let’s dive into today’s ideas.

DOMAIN FLIPPING

$8000 Profit in 3 Months from 1 Domain Flip

šŸ’¬ Luc Biggs tweets…

Went on a little ā€œagenticā€ shopping spree earlier this year, registering around 283 ā€œagenticā€ .COMs - most of them for $4,95 at Spaceship.

The first one just sold [for $9,995]

He includes a screenshot as proof šŸ‘

The domain is agenticcomp dot com.

283 x $4.95 = $1,400.85

So with just one of Luc's 283 small bets paying off, he's already profited around $8000 šŸ¤‘

(Minus any fees.)

You can also try this without spending a dime…

KEYSTONE TOOLS

Used His Own Apps To Get to $2K/Month in 6 Months

Alex Derocq is the founder of CheckMySEO, which has grown to $2K MRR and 1500+ users since starting last October šŸ˜Ž

He told me via DM…

Social media has been a huge driver. Twitter and Reddit brought in a lot of traffic early on. But SEO has been just as important. 

My own tool has been a big asset, consistently pulling in organic traffic. 

I also leveraged PostWatch, another tool I built, to track and engage with people actively searching for terms like ā€œSEO auditā€ or ā€œSemrush.ā€ That helped me reach the right audience at the perfect time.

If there’s one key to growth, it’s consistency. Posting regularly, engaging with people, and most importantly, asking for feedback non-stop. Even if it annoys some, it’s the best way to refine and improve.

Here's the idea: use CheckMySEO and/or PostWatch to boost revenue for client projects šŸš€

Very inexpensive to start. 

You could even do a free trial for a couple of clients to build trust and get referrals.

PRODUCTIZED SERVICE

From $0 to $1,000,000 in 434 Days

Nick tweets that he earned $113,700 in March from Baked Design, his unlimited design service šŸ’°

Looks like he only launched it in mid-2023, after quitting his job at Meta.

Pete Codes wrote about Nick's success in his newsletter…

I'd say doing a productized service like design, ghostwriting or any other kind of marketing is one of the easier ways into entrepreneurship.

Another tweet from Nick…

$1M baby šŸ”„

Feb 04, 2023: $0
May 11, 2024: $1,000,000

434 days

House Cleaning Business → Virtual Assistants → $9 design kit → $50 landing pages → Baked, it has been a hell of a journey!

What’s stopping you? Take the plunge.

TRENDS

Recession Brunette, Tahini Lattes, Financial Advice

šŸ’¬ Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt once said…

Find a way to ride the wave and be part of it, rather than trying to create the wave yourself.

With that in mind, it's worth keeping an eye on Yelp's monthly Trend Tracker, which highlights emerging trends from hundreds of categories.

Three trends for April šŸ‘‡

A viral tahini latte is stirring up interest as Yelp users search for local cafĆ©s putting their own spin on this savory coffee…

ā€œRecession Brunetteā€ is on the rise, as Yelp users lean toward lower maintenance hair colors… and cut back on frequent salon visits… while more users opt to buy beauty supplies for a DIY alternative…

searches for wealth managers and financial advisors are rising—especially as tax season ends and many consider how to invest their refunds.

CHROME EXTENSION

Build This to Help People Find Jobs on LinkedIn

šŸ“ On Reddit…

The #1 tip šŸ‘‡

Find jobs posted on LinkedIn in the past 1 or 2 hours instead of 24 hours

1) Search for your desired job and filter by ā€œPast 24 hoursā€

2) In the URL, change from 86400 to 3600 or 7200 — 86400 represents 24 hours, 3600 is 1 hour, and 7200 is 2 hours.

It effectively increases the chances of my resume being seen, without any extra effort!

Based on that, Honey Syed would like to see a Chrome extension that shows jobs that have been posted in the last hour on LinkedIn…

Hack to getting a job:

Only apply to jobs that have been posted in the last hour to get in front of the line.

Sounds like a quick and easy extension to build, especially with AI šŸ¤–
