When I started making money online, Twitter was full of choir boys and motivational quotes.
And making money was all about owning and running a WordPress blog. Ohhhh how things have changed, hey?
But I made most of my money in the last few years, and I’m surrounded by up-and-comers who’ve gone from $0 to 6 figures in this past year.
If I was trying to make 7 figures online again, here’s exactly what I’d do.
I spent the first 5 years of my journey thinking my butt was delicious.
I didn’t engage with anyone. I just posed as if I was strutting down Hollywood Boulevard. That meant it took a long time to learn the basics.
I had no clue about copywriting and was afraid to be “too salesy.” Then a kind fellow invited me to his mastermind. I said no then a few months later I changed my mind.
I got 5 years of progress in a year.
Finally I was surrounded by other smart people who had a similar goal to me. When I figured out some big online problem, I’d share it. When they had similar discoveries they’d do the same.
Instead of “OMG it’s an algorithm apocalypse,” the conversation changed to “Hey ya’ll, anyone having issues reaching people with your content?”
Often I’d learn the algorithm didn’t nuke anyone’s dreams. It was either a temporary issue or some over-exaggerated problem a clickbait jerk decided to write about to make $2 off.
Don’t go solo. When things get hard you will get frustrated and likely give up. If you’re serious about making money online, it’s crucial to see it as a team sport. Find your tribe.
I’ll cut to the chase here.
Every 7-figure guy/gal that’s made some cash on the internet has done it with content that leads to an email list.
