- Hi, I'm Angelique Stidhum with InVideo,
and today we're gonna go over 25 different ways
to make money online just by making videos.
There are a lot of different resources,
however, it's important to note
that the way that you get paid
and the assets required kind of vary between them,
which is why I've divided them up
into these top five categories.
Getting paid based on views alone,
educating people on how to do something,
creating videos for other people like commissioned videos,
ads, royalty, and stock footage.
And I've even thrown in like a little bonus at the end
that I'm kind of excited about.
I hope you're ready,
because I'm about to show you
how you can create some of these in less than 15 minutes
and some in less than five.
And you can do this even if you don't know
how to edit video.
So grab a notebook and let's dive in.
First up, getting paid for video
just based off of use alone.
Did you know you could do that?
Well, you can, if you go to sites like this.
Okay, we're starting with the obvious.
You already know that there are a lot of people
who are getting paid
and talking about getting paid on YouTube.
But the problem here is YouTube does not pay for views
and you have to qualify
in order to even start getting paid from YouTube.
So YouTube is not on our list.
First up is a service like Dacast.
If you're a live streamer
and you would like to put
your live streaming behind a paywall,
Dacast is probably a great option for you.
This is almost the same thing
as putting your live stream on demand
or kind of like a pay-per-view.
This is an option where you don't have
to qualify to get paid.
If you've got an audience and they're ready
for your content, this is a different type of opportunity
but you absolutely can get paid per view.
Like YouTube, these next two platforms rely on publishers
to post their content, their videos on these platforms
so that they can also collect advertising dollars.
Well, when you do that, you get paid to.
Dailymotion has a lot of information
that relies on search engine optimization, just the same,
but it has the opportunity
for creators like you to contribute.
They have over 300 million monthly active users,
3 billion monthly views, and over 2000 publishers.
If you're interested in monetizing your videos
faster than you can with YouTube,
then you might wanna take a look,
go to publishers.dailymotion.com for more information.
Metacafe, oh, here I am.
I had to create an account just to be able
to show you guys what it is.
But Metacafe is essentially almost the same thing
and they pay out based off how many views.
This is just another platform
that allows content creators a little more freedom,
to be able to post what they want, watch what they want,
and not be completely bombarded with ads all the time.
However, they have it set up.
We're not experts at what Metacafe is doing.
We just are coming with ideas
in how you can get paid using your videos.
But if you would like the opportunity
to learn more about Metacafe,
just go to metacafe.com and you can find more info there.
How about educating people on how to do something.
Sites like Skillshare and Hotmart
allow you to upload your class to their platform
and leverage their traffic.
But how are you gonna make the videos
to be able to teach the course content?
Well, let me show you how to quickly do that with InVideo.
If you're teaching someone how to do something,
then you're probably going to teach them in steps.
You can use Listicle templates as a great place to start
as they already have many of what would be considered steps
or list of steps all packaged up and ready to be customized.
But let's say you wanted to do something
a little bit more custom,
and you were looking for something
that really represented the whole mood
and vibe of what it is you're teaching.
Take, for example, something on how to be vegan
or vegan recipes, for example.
Let me show you how you can mix
and match templates to build out a larger project.
These are your scenes and inside of those scenes
are individual timelines that you can make adjustments
to all those features.
In this particular sequence we have six scenes,
but this may not be enough or you may wanna mix it up.
So if you already have something in mind
you can just simply drag and drop them in.
And you can do that with any template in any scene.
What will you make?
You could also create content for other people
like commissioned videos.
This is where people pay you to make videos for them,
maybe for their business.
So sites like Fiverr, Upwork, Demand Media.
Did you know the "New York Times" pays people
for opinion videos.
I have so many opinions.
Other sites like SmartShoot and VideoAgency.TV,
and don't sleep on Facebook and LinkedIn.
People post listings all of the time there.
And they like to connect with the creator.
So post it in the marketplace as a service
that you have to offer.
There are people looking for that.
If this is something that you're considering,
you should know a few things.
If you're gonna be able to produce content
for someone professionally,
they're gonna need to be consistent
and you're gonna have to be able to pump this stuff
out pretty consistently
and keep it polished and professional.
You're also gonna need to come up with a lot of ideas.
We've got you on this.
Let me show you how you can knock out
a ton of content quickly.
Some of these literally will only take you five minutes.
Let me show you.
So you can search for anything you want up here.
You can also just take some of these for a spin.
Let's just scroll on through and see what we got.
Just scrolling through, you can see that all the templates
are organized by categories.
Sometimes when we're searching by keywords,
we miss out on other opportunities and styles
just because maybe they didn't show up with that keyword.
If you happen to see something that you like,
then just give it a heart
and it'll be saved to your favorites.
Like I said, they're always adding new things.
So you'll always find something new
when you go in to search for templates.
This is what I wanted to show you though
because this is what makes it really easy.
So you're coming up with different forms of content.
You've got to come up with this stuff fast
and then a lot of it
so that they can stay really consistent.
Well, one of those things you'll wanna have
are these date type content.
What is the day? National Donut Day, Superman Day.
Here's World Gin Day.
What is this, World Blood Donor Day, Garfield The Cat Day.
You can search for calendars here.
Calendar, did I spell that right?
Calendar and then you can put whatever the date is.
February, June, whatever it is.
You can just search here, but I'm gonna take you to January
because there's something special in January.
I never knew.
(soft gentle music)
Do you see it?
(soft gentle music)
I never knew.
(upbeat music)
Oh, my God.
(upbeat music)
It looks so good.
I just want to throw this out there.
If you would like a filter for removing delicious options
like this from their search,
just put it in the comments, like anti-delicious filter.
And then that way I could package them up.
'Cause I'm gonna need some help.
They got to have more requests than just me asking for it.
Help me.
Psst, are you getting value from this video?
Okay, good, 'cause I got another tip for you.
Did you know that you can get all these features
with InVideo for free? For free.
Well, it's true.
And if that's not a value, I don't know what is.
It kind of just proves that you don't always
have to spend money to make money.
By the way, you can see me, but I can't see you.
So the only way to let me know for sure
that you're getting value from this video is
to like and subscribe, or you can comment down below.
Let's keep going.
Running ads for people is probably
one of the most popular ways of making money with video.
Why? Because ads are a big deal.
Companies spend a lot of money on ads
so they need somebody who's pretty good
at coming up with polished content
to be able to make this process easier for them.
This is why this isn't usually a DIY situation.
They want something that looks polished and professional
and reaches their target market, that it does the jobs
that they can keep doing what they're good at, right?
You don't know how to run ads.
You can just create the ads.
And if you're a small business owner
I am not leaving you out of this.
You can definitely do this yourself.
You don't have to be an experienced video editor
to use InVideo.
It's kind of the best part.
They also want options, that they're not stuck
with the same ad.
You've got to be able to test things
and see which one that their audience responds best to.
So even better that you can create
a whole bunch of these, repurpose them
and test a whole bunch of styles
just to be able to see which one converts the best.
I'm gonna show you how easy this is because I promise
if I can do this, you can do this.
Let's search up Video Ads as it's suggested.
Let's see there are over 600 different templates
that are all ready to go
but let's say you're doing a promo for a product
and you already have the product images.
If you intended to cut them out of the image
or they can be cut out the image,
you can use InVideo's background remover tool
to do the work right there inside the app.
I would suggest just by scrolling you'll be able to see
some of the options that maybe
wouldn't come up just by searching,
'cause you can really customize any of these templates
to meet your needs.
You can use ads to run Facebook ads for local businesses.
Place ads on your own videos.
Use a service like Brightcove,
advertise that you'd create ads on Blip TV or Maker Studios.
You could also advertise your services
on like Fiverr or Upwork.
I think depending on where you post your service,
depends on what you can command
just based off of what your competition is.
I mean, that makes sense, right?
So if you can pump these out quickly
you could be averaging somewhere
between 50 to $100 an hour making ads
and I'm not even done.
Let's keep going.
Stock and royalty footage.
There's way too many sites for me to list
all of them for you.
Here's a pretty well known and trusted list of resources
that you can sell footage as stock footage
to these websites.
Sites like Depositphoto, Storyblocks, catch&release.com,
Artgrid, Pond5, Shutterstock, iStock, Alamy.
By the way, did you know that InVideo
has a huge library of over 8 million stock clips
that you get to choose from?
And they use sources like Shutterstock and iStock.
Do you know how much a membership
to these sites cost per month?
I don't wanna ruin the surprise
but it's a little more than free.
Well, the reason why we can source sites like this
is because someone sold their footage to these sources
that you can then put inside of your video.
Every time you choose one for your InVideo project
that creator gets paid.
Smart, right?
Well, you could do the same.
You see creators are always in need of interesting
and captivating clips that will help tell a story
and hold attention.
But any tool is only as good as what it's used for
and how it's used.
And on that note, when you find a great tool
and people ask you, "What are you using?"
Don't you wanna share it?
Well, you can also make money doing that.
So here's your bonus tip.
Did you know that InVideo has an affiliate program?
So while you're busy creating awesome videos
and generating income, you could also be making commissions
by simply sharing this tool with others.
It's kind of like double-dipping.
When's the last time that you shared something
with someone that you found useful or helpful.
And when you did, did that company pay you?
Didn't think so, but we will.
Honestly, signing up is easy.
