When it comes to making money online, it seems like there are so many people giving false information and scams out there. So in today's video, I'm going to share with you some real credible information on the best online businesses to start as an absolute beginner. Now in this video I'm going to share with you three very specific online business models.
The first one is going to be the very easiest one. So if you have no skills and you want to start something today that's actually going to work. This is the business model for you.
The second online business in this video, again, is going to be a very easy one that you can start today. And then the third one has the potential to make you the most money the fastest. Now, for all three of these online businesses, I have made full step-by-step tutorials, totally for free on my YouTube channel.
This is typically the part that most people miss. They tell you about a business idea, but they don't teach you how to do it unless you pay for the course or something like that. So guys, just before we jump into this video, I do wanna just take one quick second to give you some credibility about myself.
If you are anything like me, whenever I'm getting financial advice or business advice from someone, I need to see the proof before I'm taking any of their advice to heart. So I've personally done all three of these business models and over the years of doing them, I've made something like $3 million in profit. These business models absolutely work.
I've been in the trenches learning them inside and out. And in the videos on my channel, you will see exactly what I've done to get to my level of profit. So you can do it as well.
Alright guys, without further ado, let's get straight into the first one here. And all I ask is if you do find yourself enjoying this video as you're watching it, please just give it a thumbs up and let me know down in the comments. Okay?
So starting with the very first business model, like I said, this is the easiest one that anyone can start today. Let me switch you over to the computer and show you this one. So what this one is is Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing.
Now, you may have seen this called Amazon KDP, and essentially what this is is where you can create books and sell them on Amazon. Now, I don't want you to think that you have to write full books for this. You can actually create daily planners or blank journals, all different types of books, and you can sell those on Amazon with KDP.
So I'll put up a really big list here of different ideas that you can create KDP books with, and then I'll show you some real examples in my hand. So hopefully this list gives you some brainstorming ideas of different types of books you can create. But here are some real examples.
So this is a password logbook. Every page in here is the same and it's just formatted to keep track of your passwords. Another example here is just a journal with blank pages where people can keep notes, but it has a funny cover on it.
And then some of my favorites here, these are word search books. So if you know how to create word searches, which in the free tutorial I was talking about on this channel, it'll show you exactly how to do that. You can create books like this where they are themed word searches and sell those on Amazon.
Now the thing that I love so much about this business model is all we have to do is create this actual arc file on our computer front and back for the covers, and then what's going to be on each page. And if you have the right software, you can create all this so easily and you upload those files to Amazon and then that creates a virtual listing of this product. And when someone purchases it, Amazon actually prints this physical book and ships it out to the customer.
We don't have to print anything, we don't even take care of customer service. It's all done on Amazon. So let me quickly switch you over to the computer and show a real example of this.
On Amazon, if you type in word search books, which is ones that I was just showing you here, this is going to be all results. And for the vast majority of these, they're going to be done with Amazon KDP. So if you click on one of these listings, which just looks like a normal Amazon listing, this is actually done with KDP.
So the person who is selling this only created this front cover here, the back cover, and then you don't even see what is inside. Besides that it has 131 pages, but when someone purchases this, Amazon will print it and ship it out to them and they will receive something like this. So guys, as a total beginner, if you know how to create these covers and what's inside of the books, which I show you totally for free in that tutorial, you can come up with so many different ideas to create these word searches or any other types of journals that you want to create, and you can upload them directly to Amazon.
Now, there is so much more that I'd like to talk about for this business model, but I really wanna keep this video moving along. Trust me when I say there are very few business models out there besides the ones on this list that you can start for very low risk. You don't have to spend any money on advertising or marketing, and you can start making money within the first month that you start.
So guys, if you do want to start Amazon KDP, there's a full step-by-step tutorial linked down in the description. However, let's get into the second business model. Alright, so moving into the second online business that I highly recommend.
This one is slightly harder to do than Amazon KDP, but it is still definitely classified as one that is easy to start. What this business is called is called Print on Demand. Now, if you haven't heard of Print on Demand before, it is very similar to Amazon KDP, but instead of creating books, you're creating t-shirts.
Now, if this is a business model that I have a ton of experience with, I've literally been doing this one for just about 10 years now. This is a business model that has proven time and time again to work. So let me quickly switch you over to the computer and show you a real example of this just to tie it all together.
So if we come back over to Amazon, again, this is just going to be the largest Print on Demand marketplace out there, but there are several other Print on Demand marketplaces you can sell on as well. With that being said, if you type in something like funny fishing shirt just as just for an example, you can type in any type of t-shirt and you scroll down here, you're going to see these kind of funny graphic t-shirts. Now for all of these that have the same mockup, so you'll notice this kind of black or it could be a different color t-shirt mockup that looked the same.
So this one and this one, if you keep scrolling down here, you're going to see the same mockup, the same mockup. These are all being done with Print on Demand. So if we just click on one of these, again, just like Amazon KDP, the person who created this only uploaded this design here, and then Amazon created this listing.
Whenever someone places an order, Amazon will print it and ship it out to the customer and take care of all the customer service for you. Now, what's cool is as you're looking around Amazon just doing some research on this, anytime you see this little label right here, Amazon Merch on Demand, that means that this listing is being done with Print on Demand. So just like Amazon KDP, you set your pricing so you get to determine how much money you make per sale, and then anyone can come in here, they can choose what kind of shirt they want that printed on, what color, what size, and they can add it right to their cart and they can purchase it even with Amazon Prime Shipping.
Now a couple really important things about Print on Demand. First, I would say that it is very similar to Amazon KDP. The only main difference is that in order to be a seller for Amazon Print on Demand, you have to actually apply to be a seller.
So if you go over to Google, you type in Amazon Merch on Demand, it'll bring you to this page, and this is where you actually sign up to be a Print on Demand seller on Amazon. So once you see this sign up button, you just click on that, it goes through a very quick application and then you have to wait up to 14 days to hear back from Amazon to see if you are approved or not. Now the bit of good news here is that while you're waiting from Amazon to hear back, there are a couple other big Print on Demand marketplaces that you can also sell your designs on, and you can start on those right away.
You don't have to apply to be a seller. Now those websites and how to apply to Amazon, all the information for Print on Demand business is going to be in a full print on demand tutorial linked down in the description as well. That is going to be totally free here on the YouTube channel.
Now with that being said, I would say the number one issue or obstacle people run into when starting Print on Demand is how to actually create designs if you don't have graphic design experience. So this is something that I've learned over the years of doing this, but there are graphic design tools out there where you can type in something like fishing. Let's create a fishing t-shirt.
You give that a search and you have all of these different t-shirt templates that you can then start customizing and you can use those for your print on demand designs. Just to give you a little glimpse into this, you can come in here and change all the text. And the best part is you can come in here and change all the graphics just by clicking around on different buttons.
This levels the playing field. And for those of us who know about graphic design tools like this, you don't need to have any graphic design experience to create really good looking t-shirt designs. So guys, that is the second online business model, and again, if you want to learn how to do this one entirely step by step, there's a full print on tutorial link down in the description below.
So guys, before we get into the third online business model, I just wanna make a quick note to say that I hope you are enjoying this video. All of this information is coming from real hands-on experience. So I'm not just spewing out information that I found on Google.
If you are enjoying this so far, please just give it a thumbs up. And again, just let me know down in the comments if you are enjoying it or if you have any questions at all. Alright, so that brings us into the third and final online business model that I highly recommend.
Now, this one is going to be the hardest one to do on this list, however, it's going to have the biggest earnings potential. So with that being said, what this business model is called is affiliate marketing. Now, if you've seen other people teaching how to do affiliate marketing, I have a personal strategy that I'm about to share with you that not many other people are talking about, and this is the way that I can personally vouch for it working.
So what affiliate marketing is is just like whenever you buy something from a company, if they ever send you an email afterwards and they say, hey, if you refer us a friend, we'll give you $25 or we'll give you some kind of credit towards future purchases. That referral program that that company is offering is also known as their affiliate program. So whenever you hear affiliate program, just think of referral program.
What most people don't realize is that when you go to all these big websites out there or big companies that sell things, you can typically go all the way to the bottom of their homepage and they have a little bit of text that you can click on that says affiliate program. Anyone out there in the world can go and click on that and they can join their affiliate program totally for free. And then they get their own unique referral links to any product that that company sells.
So the way that this works is anytime you send your referral link to anyone out there, they click on that link and they purchase from the company, you will then get a commission from that company. So with that being said, let's switch over to the computer and let me explain the strategy for affiliate marketing that is absolutely working right now. So where the strategy starts is actually on YouTube.
So to give you an example of this, let's type in best fishing pole for beginners. This is going to give us some good results that we can work with here and I can explain how this is working. So this first one is just an ad, so you can kind of disregard that.
That is sponsored. And then these couple results here, these are from bigger creators. It has 118,000 views and then 500,000 views.
As you keep scrolling down here, you're going to find some of these from smaller creators. This is just going to prove that this strategy works for people who are just starting today as well. So if you click on this video, for example, this creator only has 729 subscribers.
However, in the last four months, their video got 3000 views. Essentially all this is is a video of the creator recommending what are their top fishing poles for beginners. And then when someone has watched this video, they come down here and guess what?
These are all of the affiliate links or referral links to these specific products that they talked about in the video. Now, this is just an example for fishing poles on a small channel, but you can do this for any different niche out there. You can do affiliate marketing with any different company that has an affiliate program.
Now, this was an example from a small creator, but here's another good example from a bigger creator. They have 600,000 subscribers, but when you come down here, you're going to see, okay, here's all of the affiliate links to the products that were talked about in this video. Once your eyes are kind of open to this business model, you are going to start to see this everywhere on the internet.
Even big news channels, they do affiliate marketing in this same way. This is a business model that absolutely works. Now, the last thing that I'll say here is that there's two kind of catches here.
One is that you have to create a video. You don't have to actually be on camera. There's ways of doing it where you can just show the camera forward and show what you were talking about.
But that's probably going to be the biggest hangup and reasons why people don't start this business model. But it's also why you have the biggest earning potential so quickly. Now, the second kind of catch to this business model.
Another thing that makes it one of the harder ones to do is that you have to actually have your hands on these products. Now, that means that you have to purchase the products to make the videos, or what I recommend doing is making videos about products that you already own. The best way to do this is to think about any products that you have purchased from Amazon.
What most people don't know is that Amazon also has an affiliate program. This means that around your house, you probably have products that you could pick up the camera and create videos about, and you can put your specific referral links to those products in the description. Now, there is so much that I can unpack about this business model, however, that is what I've put in the full step-by-step affiliate marketing tutorial down in the description below.
So guys, there you have it. Those are three online businesses that I could personally vouch for with full step-by-step tutorials for free on YouTube. As always, I hope you guys enjoyed this video.
If you did, please give it a thumbs up. If you have any questions at all about these, let me know and I'd be happy to help you out. Alright guys, that is it for this one.
I will see you all in the next video.
