Doing job is an obvious way one can earn money if you know coding but there are a few other ways that will help you
On money, uh by doing programming and i'm going to share that in this video today
Number one is doing freelancing online
Upwork fiverr and freelancer are some of the website that allow you to do freelancing programming work
I have a subscriber. His name is akshay. Jain when I had a conversation with him two years back
He was in third year of engineering studying in a small town in the state of rajasthan. India
He was doing freelancing on upwork and earning one lakh rupees per month
Think about it
If you are in engineering third year earning one lakh rupees or two thousand dollar a month is pretty good deal
Actually, I have shared his profile here on up for he has on sixty thousand
Dollars so far by doing all that freelancing work mainly in python
So freelancing on this platform is definitely a good way of earning money. There are so many freelancers
Some of the freelancers charge even 100 or 200 an hour and they earn more than other people who are doing job
I'm, thinking of inviting aksai for an interview where he can share
You know the tips for freelancing and that video might already be available
If you are watching this particular video at a later point in time in the future
The second way is doing freelancing for local businesses. Can you go to
some local grocery store or a doctor's office or lawyer's office and ask them to
build their website or a mobile app
After coolid19 came in the demand for mobile app and web development has increased
Someone sent me this nice infographics on whatsapp and it shows the reality postcode
Everyone wants digital transformation in their business, especially small businesses
For small businesses their need is custom software
There are software products big one
But often they want to do some customization and those big companies are not going to do customization
So custom software needs are higher and that increases the opportunities for local freelancing
You can go to
Let's say some business and you know
Like build a website for them using some template and say that look this is how your website is going to look like
And that trick work will work the best if you directly go to a business and say okay you should do
Redo your website
They will probably not be convinced
But if you do it and go with your laptop or ipad show it to them with their logo and their business name
They will be more convinced and they might give you that business
I have a friend rahul gawande who also started doing freelancing in his college days, and he started earning a lot of money
Later on. He's actually a common friend of me and my brother and when my brother started his software company
He uh started it with
A partnership with rahul and that rahul is now a cto of that company. So if you're doing
Freelancing you might build great connections with people which might turn into some amazing
Uh collaboration opportunities in the future. I have shared, uh, rahu's linkedin profile in video description below
so if you need any tip on doing
Uh freelancing in the local business, you know outside the online platform feel free to reach out to him
He's very kind and helpful and he will probably answer
The questions you might have third way is to sell website templates and wordpress themes online
Theme forest is one of the popular website which sells website templates and themes
This is a marketplace similar to upwork where people build these templates and sell it here
Say you are looking for an e-commerce template. You can click here. You will find so many templates from different companies here
There is this company called p themes which is selling this template for 99
And if you look at their portfolio, there are so many themes
Similar to p themes you can also register your profile on themeforest
build these templates in html psd
Css javascript you need design skills and some basic web development skills
And by doing that you can build a template post here
And then it becomes a passive income for you because you do one-time work
And then these themes keeps on selling for example, this theme 59
it just keeps on selling and
B themes company will a company or person will keep on making money. You can also sell the plugin
So if you are here if you go to code
And if you are looking for less a calendar control for website, you find so many different controls
And these controls are also created by freelancers
Which they are selling it here on this marketplace
If you want to learn how to build these themes or plugins go to youtube just say wordpress theme development tutorial
You'll find many tutorials here similar to that you can google
Wordpress plugin development tutorial and you'll find many
Videos for that so learning these things are not that hard fourth way is teaching
Which is what i'm doing on this youtube channel, once you learn coding, uh, you can also learn some teaching skills
And you can combine these two to create amazing revenue streams
As of september 2020 with hundred and fifty thousand subscribers i'm earning
Close to two thousand dollar a month from youtube
I have not done any sponsorship affiliate marketing or any paid courses yet
There are websites such as udemy coursera simply learn and they're sending me tons of emails
Uh for doing the paid courses
so if I launch
Let's say a paid course 10 each. I can easily make few thousand dollars. So
You can see the potential that teaching has once you know
Uh the coding as well as the teaching
You can also do local tutoring
Nowadays, even the students in 10th or 12th grade. They want to do a long programming
You can find such people in your local area and maybe conduct some tuition classes
And that is an amazing way to earn some extra money. The next one is starting a niche website. Now, what is nish website?
It is a website or a portal that serves the need of specific audience
I will share the story of pat flynn who runs a successful podcast called smart passive income
I have a link of his podcast, please watch it. Very inspirational very successful
He was working as an architect in a company and one fine day. He gets fired from the job
At that time he had created a website which helps you prepare for an architect exam
And he realized his website was getting many hits. So he revamped his website and then launched a course
Or an ebook which gives you guidance on how to prepare for the architect
examination
And that ebook earned him 8 000 in very first month
After that, he has never looked back. He is he's so successful if you go to google
And just search smart passive income
nis website
podcast
And you will find couple of episodes in his podcast which will teach you how you can start your own a website
Uh, he also had this website where he was teaching if you want to start a food truck business
Then how you can do it. What are the various resources?
And once you launch this website, you can put google ad
On it and those ads will generate a steady revenues for you
Also, you can do paid consulting or maybe paid courses and that will also generate some extra income for you
please watch smart passive income podcast and also those
specific episodes related to nist website
Wherever you're living in your local area try to identify some common problem
we human have this habit of
Complaining about problems, but then when you start looking at these problems as opportunities
That's when you come up with these ideas of nist websites. So nist website another great way of
generating a passive income the passive income is word is very important because it's like
You have a home and you are renting it to someone, okay?
So once you have that website going on you have to do little maintenance
But otherwise you do less work and every month the money keeps on depositing into your account
Next item in the list is creating your own mobile
Application my brother recently got an inquiry from a visa consultant who want to create his own mobile app for to do tasks
And I was like, there are so many to do task applications. There is google keep there is
wunderlist to-do list
Why do you want to create one another to-do app?
and the answer was the businesses have this custom needs and this particular visa consultant had a need of
Some specific workflow, which was not there in these applications
And these guys don't mind spending
a few thousand dollars in building these applications
So custom software development market is very huge
and you as a freelancer will have a lot of advantage because
These small businesses cannot afford to pay to big companies
and big companies cannot make a truly generic software, which will satisfy needs of all the
users, so maybe you can make a to-do app for
Let's say medical representatives
You know those pharmaceutical small companies have their specific workflow or maybe visa consultants have their specific workflow. So
Make an application which suits the need of a specific segment?
And that custom software will earn you a lot of money
I was watching an interview with zip recruiters ceo and when zip recruiter
Website was launched. It is a job search portal
There are many other websites
There were monster
Indeed.com nokri.com and so on and someone asked why are you starting yet another?
job portal website
and he said that
In all these portals if you want to do a specific thing
Let's say you have to go through 10 steps, even if I can reduce the 10 steps into 9 steps
Then also I have a sellable product
So try to look uh in your surroundings and do observation
Are you finding any applications or any workflow?
Where there there is some pain and maybe you can address that pain by taking those extra steps away
And when you build that product it will sell for sure
even if it doesn't
Become big like multi-billion dollar enterprise, even if it can solve local businesses into your local area
Still you can earn a lot of money
There is a saying that you never lose you either win or you learn
so if your
Adventure doesn't become successful. You will learn some skills
Which will help you start another venture in the future and you will eventually get a success
the last one is participating in coding competitions where you can win the prize if you're talking about data science and
Machine learning kegel is a famous website where you and couple of your friends can form a group
Participate in this kegel competition which has sometimes have tiff prices such as 50 000
and if you're lucky and if you of course you have to work hard and if you can
Win that prize it will be a big deal
And even if you don't win the the prize, of course, you will learn a lot of skills, which will be useful to you anyway
