Side Hustle Spark 314: $160,000 per month in passive income

April 6, 2022April 6, 2022 / TMH / Leave a comment

Graham Cochrane is 38 and bringing in some serious cash.

What launched him on his steady rise to affluence? Getting laid off in 2009.

He opted to ramp up his passion for music production and in the process he launched his blog The Recording Revolution , as well as a YouTube channel.

And now the poor guy is putting in about five hours per week on his Recording Revolution ($40,000 per month) and his online coaching ($120,000 per month in gross sales) businesses.

For more of Graham’s story…

Three tips he shares:

1. Sell your skills to earn passive income.

2. Give people a free sample of what you can offer.

3. Build automatic systems.

December 27, 2021 / TMH / Leave a comment

Check out Neil’s tips on dealing with digital marketing in 2022 and beyond.

How to differentiate yourself and your products/services?

Tip #1: There’s too much content. Use steps. Use data. Give a fresh perspective.

Tell your own stories. If you can’t offer a fresh perspective, don’t add the content.

Tip #2: Refresh/update your past content.

Tip #3: Add an influencer. ‘Influence’ is here to stay. It may cost you, but it’s worth exploring.

Tip #4: Add upsells and downsells.

Tip #5: Use multiple channels. “Take an omnichannel approach.”

Here’s hoping your bank accounts in 2022
will be saturated as well.

Best of luck!
