7 Ways to make money online: How I make money online using my skills, God given gifts and my story

7 ways I make money online using my skills, God given gifts and my story

• My first online sales came from creating my own branded products that I sold on Amazon FBA.

• I loved the way I had grown as a person in starting my business and wanted to share that so I started creating printables, planners and sharing my story and content. I opened my Etsy shop itstartswiththedream and remember how nervous I was, then getting my first sale.

• I then sold my printables on my website, then physical planners. I relaised I had to make my own traffic. I built my 100 or so subscribers by sharing free printables in Facebook groups. I created blog posts, used instagram and Pinterest. I then started making Youtube videos which I post on my blog, and use the audio on my podcast.

• Next I took a course called Passive Income Planner Girl by Michelle Rohr and this was the best $99 I ever spent in my business! I became an affiliate which means you get paid if people buy a product through a link. This is my affiliate link if you love planners and want to check it out. https://www.secretowlsociety.org/piwp-sales-page?affiliate=sos2020

• I went on to create a course about how I make my physical planners as I had a lot of people asking me how I go about it. I offered a low price to buy the course before I’d made it to the people who had said they were interested. I then taught the content live in a FB group and they gave me some feedback. https://itstartswiththedream.com/plannersondemand/

• Some of my students in my course became my affiliates. They promote my course and get a commission. That’s one of my favourite ways to make an income. You have people who like what you do, simply share it with their people who it could be a great fit for! It’s a win win situation.

• As I had these creative skills I had people ask me if I could design their printables. I started to offer creative service doing all the creative things I do for myself in my business. I have space for 2 retainer clients if you’re a course creator or run a membership or program.

• Finally the 8th way I’ve made money online is by coaching or mentoring. I’ve run a membership where I coach women through goal setting. I also offered one to one sessions with my planner students as some wanted more help or accountability. I love sharing what I know and find this a really fulfilling way to make an income.
