I used this strategy when I was just getting started in online business. I wanted to make enough to:
1. Live a comfortable life
2. Not have to work for somebody else.
$9,000/month can change your life π Especially if you are looking to step into entrepreneurship full-time.
You are going to create and sell a high-value digital product.
Why a digital product? Why not SAAS or Ecom?
π Faster To Build
π Easier To Sell
π Simpler To Operate
π No Cost of Goods
This means you can go from making $0 to $9,000/month in 60 days or less.
First, you need VALUE π
Digital products are designed to do ONE THING.
Take a customer from Point A (painful problem) to Point B (enjoyable solution).
It doesn't really matter what you talk about.
It could be running profitable facebook ads or baking the perfect muffin.
Your primary goal is to understand the problem a group of people is experiencing and create a ROADMAP to their desired outcome.
Example: This 30 Day Blueprint Helps Unemployed Full-Stack Developers Land Their Dream Job in Silicon Valley.
Clear πPoint A --> πPoint B.
Second, you need a PRODUCT π¦
What is the vehicle through which you deliver the ROADMAP? You have a few options:
π₯ Video Courses like
@PaikCapital &
@blackhatwizardd π₯ Masterclasses like
@SaaSWiz &
@ecomchasedimond π₯ Templates like
@JanelSGM &
@OneJKMolina Pick one.
Your goal is to build a product that you can sell for $100.
Why $100?
β
Affordable enough to sell a lot
β
Expensive enough to earn your real money
And most importantly:
It FORCES you to create something that is ACTUALLY VALUABLE.
Third, you need a SALES MECHANISM π°
I recommend

Next, you need CUSTOMERS π
The internet makes this part EASY.
Social Media: Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, Instagram
Forums: Reddit, Quora, Digg
Communities: IndieHackers, Makerpad, Jetpack
Blogs: Medium, Substack
Your customers are online. You just have to find them.
Once you find them, follow this simple formula every day.
50 Outbound DMs.
50 Comments on other's content.
1 High-Value Post.
Your goal is to spark CONVERSATIONS. Once you are having conversations with your target customers you are in a prime position to SELL.
Speaking of...
Lastly, you need SALES π°
This is where people will either double down and make money OR give up and not make a dime.
There is no magic sales hack to $9,000/month.
It is 100% on you and your commitment.
You either show up and hustle OR you don't.
You goal is to sell 3 products a day.
$100 product x 3 sales/day x 30 days = $9,000/month.
100 Interactions (DMs/Comments).
π
10 Good Conversations.
π
3 Sales.
Showcase your value in the conversation and show them why it makes sense for them to buy your product.
Yes, it is that simple.
You don't need Facebook ads, a funnel, or anything complicated. Save all that for scaling from $9k/month to $90k/month.
Create something valuable, talk to your target customers and share your product with them.
That's it.
Now go make money ππ°
Need some inspiration?
These people sell digital products extremely well.
