The 3 Digital Career Paths That Can Replace Your 9-5 In 3-18 Months
The old world career system is outdated, these 3 are the new world career paths
Most 9-5s are toxic
I talk to people on a daily basis doing 9-5s, and 99% of them are basically slaves
Many of them work even later than 9-5, and by the time they get home..
They are dead tired, with just enough energy to make food, and go to sleep
This is the state of the current world of careers, but people are waking up
More and more 9-5ers are trying to find alternative ways to make a living
But they have no idea where to go, or what to do
They desperately search the internet for career opportunities..
But all they are find is scummy gurus and unethical programs
If you don’t look in the right places, you can spend years figuring things out, and get nowhere
And once they do figure it out, they are still a newbie in the scene, and have no idea what they are even doing
Forget email marketing, social media management, getting clients, keeping clients etc.
They have no idea how to do those things, and they most likely never will
So if you’re reading this right now, it means you’re about to learn about the top 3 opportunities when it comes to building an online business
They are tested, effective, and at the start, they will require a lot of hard work
But unlike a 9-5, they can be scaled almost infinitely (From $10/mo -$100,000/mo+)
Also, with a 9-5 you are constantly attached to your income
Meaning if something happens to you, the money stops flowing
You can’t really take a break, go on vacation, or get sick..
Because there’s limited amount of “off” days for a 9-5
But every single one of these career paths..
Allows you to disconnect yourself rom your income
Meaning you can go travel the world, and you will keep making money
And with enough hard work, you will make 100x more money as well
This is the future of careers
In 30 years from now, everyone has to be a creator
We use technology every single day, and creators are masters of it
I recently enrolled in a college course, and the text books I have to buy, can be replaced by YouTube videos I can find on the internet for free
The Internet is the future of education (I teach this here), and these 3 digital paths, are the future of careers
Are you ready to transform the outcome of your life? Then let’s get started
Digital Career Path Number 1 - Affiliate Marketing
People are making anywhere from $5/mo-$40,000/mo+, using this business model
The strategy with this career path, is to use it as a stepping stool, not to turn it into your career
It can be your main business model, but it’s better to use this path to build up experience for the other two career paths
You will learn:
Sales
Product Development
Web-design
And Marketing
To succeed in affiliate marketing, there’s a few things you need to understand
What is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is when you join an affiliate program, usually by contacting a creator on social media, who’s already selling their own digital product
This product needs to be performing well, the creator needs a good reputation, and the product itself can’t be unethical in any way
Once you have those done, you can go through the process of joining the affiliate program
Becoming An Affiliate
Contact the creator, and ask if you can affiliate for his product or paid community
The creator might have a policy for affiliate marketers, and then you can discuss your commission rate
Commission rate, refers to the percentage of the money you gain whenever you make a sale of their product
Affiliates are rewarded for good work, so make sure you build a good relationship with the creator, and make them a lot of money
The more money you make them, the higher they will make your commission %
What should you sell? These 3 things are the best to sell
Before we begin, the information contained in
1.1 - Paid Community Subscriptions
These are a gold mind for affiliate marketers, because you can build a monthly income source, as long as you keep selling
Since you’re selling a subscription, it means you’ll be paid monthly
So the more people you convert into paid community members, the more money you make per month
It’s a long process, but it pays incredibly well, and depending on where you live, you can replace your 9-5 pretty fast
Make sure the creator of the community is fine with adding new members, because you’ll be sending them new customers
1.2 - $50+ Digital Products (Gumroad Works Well)
Selling digital products at a lower price than that, would make your work much harder
If you focus on $50 products that have a lot of 5 star reviews with an established landing page already performing well, when you drop the link in the DMs, people are much more likely to convert into customers
And since you’re selling from $50 and up, the amount of numbers you’d need to sell every month is much less, than if the product was say $20
Obviously, the more the digital products costs, the harder it will be to sell
But with the right process you can sell products for up $5000 and more
I teach that in my “Simplified Selling Framework” course here
1.3 - Selling High Ticket Services On Commission Basis
This is something you should only do once you’ve built up some experience in selling
Since you’ll be dealing with clients who invest thousands of dollars into a creator’s service, you need to produce results
Losing a few deals is fine, but make sure you don't lose too many potential clients, otherwise the creator might throw you out
Unless you are going out of your way to find ideal prospects yourself, but creators who sell these services usually have a client system, and you need to stick to that
It’s going to be tougher than selling a digital product with no one watching you, but the payout is 200% more
I know people making anywhere from $5000-$50,0000 and more, doing this
Again, this requires a higher level of expertise and knowledge, so unless you have access to advanced training, then stay away from this at the start
Digital Career Path 2 - Selling Your Own Digital Products
When it comes to selling digital products, there’s no better way than selling your own
But building digital products take experience, knowledge, and time
The reward can be huge when selling digital products
Developing Your Digital Product
A digital product that sells, needs to:
Be in demand
Solve a problem
Have a traffic source
And be hosted on a software
You can figure all of these things out for free, but getting a traffic source is going to be difficult if you don’t already have a large audience
Think about it like real life. If there were no cars on the road, the shops next to the road would not be getting customers
Digital products work the same. Without a stream of traffic, you won’t be selling anything
You can fix this by either:
Building an audience
Borrowing an audience
Building an audience takes months, and the ones that pull in enough to make a living, usually have a large audience of 10,000 followers plus
Meaning unless you have a large amount of followers, it will take a long time
The only other way to do it, is by borrowing audiences
You can get other brands to sell your digital product, in exchange for a commission
I show you how to develop a digital product, market it, and sell it, without an audience, in my “Digital Domination Framework” here
Digital Career Path 3 - Selling High Ticket Services
If you’re on the wealth side of social media, you’ve probably heard this phrase..
“Learn a high ticket skill”
The reason people teach this, is because if you live in a 1st world country, going this route is vital to make some good money in online business
With the rent being so high in places like America, most of them will say to learn a high value skill
This does carry some truth behind it, but you need to create the right system this business teaching fits in
When it comes to selling online, there’s something called the value ladder
A value ladder is the metaphorical ladder your clients or customers climb from having no idea who you are, to paying you $$2000-$5000+ for your service
Your high ticket service, has it’s place in your value ladder
Typically a value ladder should look like this:
Freebie → $20 Digital Product → $80 Consultation Call → $2000 High Ticket Service
This is just an example, but it is an effective value ladder
But how do you get started with High Ticket Skills"? Here’s how:
Identify a skill creators and business owners are willing to pay hundreds to thousands of dollars for
Typical Ones Are:
Web-design
Video Editing
Email Marketing
And Sales Page Copywriting
If you are good at one of these skills, you have the potential to pull in thousands of dollars per month. Take note how I said potential, because you need two things:
3.1 - Social Proof
The chance that someone pays you $1000 for video editing, if you have no proof you’ve gotten amazing results, is very small (but not impossible)
Deals have been closed without social proof, but if you want to sell effectively, you need to prove you’ve gotten amazing results for someone before, and preferably someone who delivers a similar service
Think about it. If you want a video editor, you’ll most likely look for someone experienced right? But in the online business world, just that is not going to cut it
What you are looking for is “High ROI Results”
If I record you a video, and it gets 10,000 views, that’s great..
But if I record you a video and it gets 10,000 views and 200 links clicks, that turn into 50 customers paying $35 for your product, I just helped you make $1750
Views are great, but if they don’t turn into money, they are not as valuable
This concepts remains the same no matter what you do
If you’re writing a sales page, make sure it increases your client’s monthly revenue
If you’re editing a video, make sure the videos makes them a lot of money
If you’re building a website, make sure it makes them a lot of money]
If you’re writing an email, make sure it makes them a lot of money
Aim for “High ROI” results, every single time
Then you record it on a text or video based testimonial, so when you offer to edit videos for someone, you can bring up the results you produced before
To get your first piece of social proof, you’re going to have to work for free
Reach out to as many people as possible offering to help them with your chosen skill, and someone will eventually say yes
Once you get that “yes”, you need to make sure to produce amazing results for them
Because the happier that client is, the better your social proof..
And the better your social proof, the easier it is to get a paid client with it
3.2 - Traffic
No matter what you’re selling, you’re going to have to need people to sell it to
Whether they come to you, or you go to them
If you’re reading this and you don’t have a large audience, I have a method to sell your services that works, but you need to stay consistent with it
