- Even dropping a title like How to Make Money Online
did feel a little sleazy,
but this video is the complete opposite.
We're gonna be covering three ways
that you can really grow real passive income
in your business, no matter what niche
or industry you're in.
(upbeat music)

So let's jump into it.
When it comes to making money online there's a lot
of noise and a lot of sleazy salespeople out there.
We've avoided doing a video like this
for a long time for that very reason,
but it's such an important topic,
and it's something that we discuss a lot
inside of our Primal Video Accelerated Program,
so we figured that it's about time
that we start to talk about income
on the YouTube channel, too.
So in this video, we're gonna cover three simple models
that you can leverage to make money online
and start building real passive income streams
that will work for you while you sleep.
Now this is not a get rich quick video,
this is the get rich smart video,
with lessons that we've learnt from a ton of trial and error
and years figuring out how to make money online.
And on the topic of doing this smart,
I want to bring up something
that's incredibly important before we dive in,
which is getting clear on exactly what passive income is.
The truth is, passive income is not a myth.
With the systems we've set up,
we're making money online 24/7,
while we're asleep, whether we work or not,
but it took work to get there.
Passive income is amazing,
but there's nothing passive about creating it.
It takes work, it takes time,
and it requires you to create real value
for your audience and customers.
And that last point is really where a lot of people mess up.
You need to focus on your audience or your customers.
The bigger the impact that you can make for them,
the more value you can create,
solving their problems, improving their results,
then the bigger returns that you will see in the long run.
So the goal here is to create as much leverage as possible,
so that for every one unit of your time
you can five x, 10x or 100x the outcome you generate.
Once we've covered off on the three streams,
I'll also share with you our number one way
to maximize that leverage,
to not only deliver a huge amount of value
to your subscribers, but also maximize your income
from every interaction.
So, the first stream is advertising, or ad revenue.
This is where there's ads displayed
on your content, whether it's YouTube, or Facebook,
or another platform, as well.
And a percentage of that ad revenue comes to you.
Now this one's not big,
but if you think of it this way,
if you're already creating videos
to grow your business online,
then switching on ads is completely passive.
You're getting additional output
from exactly the same input.
We started out switching YouTube ads on purely
to give us every shot of success on this platform.
It's in no way proven or acknowledged by YouTube,
but it would make sense that YouTube
would value more the content it can make money from.
But now that small trickle of ad revenue has turned
into more than a full-time wage.
The second stream is affiliates.
Now, we've recently released a video on this topic.
I will link it up in the cards
and also down in the description below
if you want to dive deep on that.
But essentially it's where you're paid a commission
for referring a sale to a product or a service.
Now, where a lot of people go wrong with this
is that they'll start trying to refer sales
to the ones that are gonna pay the most commission
or the highest percentages,
where the product itself may not be the best solution
or a good product at all.
And that's something that can
and has given affiliate marketing a bit of a bad rap.
But this is actually our favorite one.
You don't need to build your own apps,
your own products or have your own services.
You can start out as easy as just writing a list
of all the products and services and things that you love
and the things that you use in your business,
and then you can identify the ones
that are gonna be a good fit for your audience, as well,
that are gonna help them with their pains or challenges,
and then you can introduce those apps,
those programs and services to them.
So it's a win, win, win.
It's a win for you, it's a win for your audience,
and it's a win for the brand, or the product,
or the company that you're referring, as well.
But the biggest thing here to remember,
is to come from a place of integrity.
You really only wanna be referring
or recommending products and services
that you use, that you like,
and that are going to be a good fit for your audience,
and actually help them with wherever they're stuck,
or with whatever it is they're looking to achieve.
Now, if you're after some examples of this,
we have a gear or resources page
which is linked in the description
which you will see the products that we use
and we recommend, and most of them is something
that we are able to receive an affiliate commission for.
So a couple of really quick examples for you,
something that we use all the time
and something that we recommend to our viewers is Rev.com.
It's an amazing transcription services
where they'll transcribe your videos for you
and create all the subtitles
that you can upload to Facebook or to YouTube.
But outside of our business,
if you're doing something like dog training,
it could be that you're recommending
which food to eat, or the toys that you recommend,
or even think outside the box a little bit more
and go something like pet insurance,
which is something that you're generally gonna need
to put a lot of time into researching and finding good ones.
If you find a good one, then you can recommend that
to your viewers, to your audience,
because you know that's gonna help them
with their dog training, as well.
And if you're in the health and wellness space
it could be things like proteins or supplements
or any other food or diet products,
or it could even be things like gym memberships.
Something that's gonna help your audience
and something that they're likely going to be looking for.
Now, to get these referrals or these links out there
and educate people with what you're recommending,
you could create how to videos,
so showing people how to do something.
You could create a walkthrough video,
where you're taking them through how
to use a product or a service.
Or you could create a review video,
where you're doing a review on one or multiple products.
But again, and I really can't say this enough,
it's really important to come from a place
where you're only recommending good products,
not the ones that are paying
the best commissions or referrals fees.
And the third revenue stream is your digital products.
So, if you've got courses, or you're looking
to create courses, any training, any master classes,
any sort of premium content or even membership sites.
So these are a great way to make money online.
Packaging up your skills, your knowledge, your expertise
in a way that other people can benefit from that.
And you're able to help people with those things.
The other great thing about digital products is that
in most cases, you can spend the time creating them once
and then sell them an unlimited amount of times.
So for us at Primal Video, we do have a few courses,
but we've also got a membership site,
Primal Video Accelerator, as well.
So those are my three favorite revenue streams,
and they're the ones that we're focused on ourselves.
The cool part is, is that you can switch them on
in almost any business.
And with some simple systems,
you can not only increase your results 10 or 100 fold,
but also add a ton more value to your subscribers
and your customers in the process.
And a pro tip, the easiest way to maximize
all of these, and to make them truly passive,
is using email marketing and funnels.
You can segment your subscribers based on their interests.
You can add a ton of value with helping them
with their unique challenges, and where relevant,
you can show them products or services
that will mostly likely help them using affiliate links.
