Step #1: Choosing a Skill ✍️

The key to getting paid is having a valuable skill.

Once you do, you can sell it and use it to earn big online.

I chose writing, which I think is the most profitable skill on the internet.
Step #2: Building That Skill 📈

There's no one book or course that'll make you an expert.

Instead, it's a slow (but worth it) process of learning and practicing daily.

It took me about 3 months to become a writer that could charge the prices I wanted.
Step #3: Getting Clients 📞

When I started, I had just $800 in my bank account.

With no money to invest, most businesses weren’t an option.

I decided to freelance on job boards as a quick and low-cost way to earn.
Step #4: Growing & Optimizing 🚀

In the beginning, I got paid very little for my work.

Then, I started contacting big businesses with LinkedIn and cold email.

When I combined my skill with effective client outreach, my rate rose to $100 per hour.
Step #5: Creating Scalable Income 💎

Next, I wanted to separate time and money.

I chose selling eBooks because it was low-cost and low-risk.

Then, I settled on Twitter as my primary social media platform.
Step #6: Building a Following 📱

I got my first 1000 Twitter followers by networking.

From there, it was all about creating the best possible content.

After struggling for 6 months, I started gaining 100+ followers a day.
Step #7: Monetizing That Following 💸

I made $0 on Twitter until I had 5000 followers.

Then, I…

1. Created a few products
2. Started offering some services
3. Grew my income to $10,000 per month
Conclusion 😎

First, selling services gave me a comfortable income.

Then, I doubled that income by building on social media.

Now, I’m a top 10% earner, and my profits continue to grow.

MAKE PRODUCTS.

https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.


There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.

You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.

But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.

And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.

They find their own way.
