  • 00:00:00
    the video that you're about to watch
  • 00:00:01
    breaks down literally everything I know
  • 00:00:03
    about making money from coding this is
  • 00:00:05
    raw unedited unscripted it's just me
  • 00:00:08
    talking directly to the camera and
  • 00:00:09
    sharing with you pretty much everything
  • 00:00:11
    I've learned over the past 10 years and
  • 00:00:13
    how I've been able to earn a full-time
  • 00:00:14
    income from my coding skills now you
  • 00:00:16
    should know that this video is broken
  • 00:00:18
    into four sections which used to be
  • 00:00:20
    individual videos in a private community
  • 00:00:22
    that I had now I'm no longer running
  • 00:00:24
    that community so I simply spliced the
  • 00:00:26
    videos together and decided to make them
  • 00:00:28
    public so that all of you could enjoy
  • 00:00:30
    and learn from them now with that in
  • 00:00:31
    mind if you do actually want to put this
  • 00:00:33
    video into practice and start making
  • 00:00:35
    money from coding you do have to have
  • 00:00:36
    some coding skill I know a lot of you
  • 00:00:38
    already have that but if you don't and
  • 00:00:40
    you're looking for a road map to explain
  • 00:00:42
    what you need to learn I have a free
  • 00:00:44
    introduction course which you can check
  • 00:00:46
    out from the link below now this is a
  • 00:00:47
    part of my premium coding course with
  • 00:00:49
    course careers but the free introduction
  • 00:00:51
    course is free you just need to sign up
  • 00:00:53
    and then you'll get access to it and you
  • 00:00:55
    can watch about an hour and a half of
  • 00:00:56
    completely free content where I give you
  • 00:00:58
    as much value as I can and break down
  • 00:01:00
    exactly what you need to do in order to
  • 00:01:02
    get to a junior software engineer level
  • 00:01:05
    which is kind of the level you need to
  • 00:01:06
    be at when you can start really
  • 00:01:07
    monetizing this skill anyways I hope you
  • 00:01:10
    enjoy let's get into the video hello
  • 00:01:12
    everybody and welcome to this course
  • 00:01:14
    where we're going to break down for you
  • 00:01:16
    how to make money from coding now what
  • 00:01:18
    I'm going to do is explain to you the
  • 00:01:20
    value of coding what my journey looked
  • 00:01:22
    like and how I started from making 20
  • 00:01:24
    bucks a week to now making sometimes
  • 00:01:25
    over $20,000 per week and then I'm going
  • 00:01:28
    to discuss all the different methods you
  • 00:01:30
    can potentially follow there in so many
  • 00:01:32
    different categories and many of which
  • 00:01:34
    you've probably never heard of before if
  • 00:01:36
    you want to earn a full-time income or
  • 00:01:38
    sometimes much more from programming I'm
  • 00:01:40
    thinking to talk to you about going from
  • 00:01:42
    a developer to an entrepreneur what that
  • 00:01:44
    looks like in the mindset shift that
  • 00:01:46
    needs to take place if you want to make
  • 00:01:47
    some serious income and then I'm going
  • 00:01:49
    to talk about thinking longterm and how
  • 00:01:52
    you make this more of a career rather
  • 00:01:54
    than something you do on the side okay
  • 00:01:56
    so let's get into it here with this
  • 00:01:57
    first video value of programming well as
  • 00:02:00
    we know learning how to code is one of
  • 00:02:02
    the most valuable skills you can have
  • 00:02:04
    not only does it teach you problem
  • 00:02:05
    solving critical thinking and reasoning
  • 00:02:07
    which is something that's going to carry
  • 00:02:08
    with you the rest of your life but the
  • 00:02:10
    risk to reward ratio is so low and what
  • 00:02:13
    I mean by that is it takes you maybe 6
  • 00:02:15
    months 12 months to get decent enough at
  • 00:02:17
    coding where you actually can provide
  • 00:02:18
    some value to the marketplace and then
  • 00:02:20
    in that time you're immediately able to
  • 00:02:22
    start making a ton of money and the
  • 00:02:24
    upside is completely uncapped you could
  • 00:02:26
    easily be making hundreds of thousands
  • 00:02:28
    of dollars your second year being a
  • 00:02:30
    developer I know developers who made
  • 00:02:32
    $300 $400,000 in year two or year three
  • 00:02:35
    of their career and I know guys that
  • 00:02:37
    sold startups after just learning how to
  • 00:02:38
    code for 2 three years right so the
  • 00:02:41
    upside is just so high it's potentially
  • 00:02:43
    uncapped and even if you go all the way
  • 00:02:45
    down to the lows side where maybe you
  • 00:02:46
    land some Junior uh entry level position
  • 00:02:48
    at a shitty company you're making 50 60k
  • 00:02:51
    a year which is still a lot better than
  • 00:02:53
    you having to go to school spend
  • 00:02:54
    hundreds of thousands of dollars waste
  • 00:02:56
    four years of your life just to get into
  • 00:02:58
    a crappy career where there's no no
  • 00:03:00
    growth there's no upside and you don't
  • 00:03:01
    have other potential now beyond that
  • 00:03:03
    just the number of ways to make money is
  • 00:03:04
    unlimited you don't have to get a job
  • 00:03:06
    and in fact a lot of the options I'm
  • 00:03:07
    going to share with you here don't
  • 00:03:08
    involve working a 9-to-5 job you can
  • 00:03:11
    work anywhere in the world you want you
  • 00:03:12
    can be in any economy you want which I
  • 00:03:14
    think is really important and you don't
  • 00:03:16
    have to be a US citizen Canadian citizen
  • 00:03:19
    or from let's call it a more a tier
  • 00:03:21
    country or first world country you can
  • 00:03:22
    be from a developing nation and still
  • 00:03:24
    make a ton of money I pay guys that live
  • 00:03:27
    in Tunisia like I think it was 7,000 per
  • 00:03:30
    month I don't know what his exact salary
  • 00:03:31
    is but it's something along that range
  • 00:03:33
    why do I pay him that because he knows
  • 00:03:35
    how to code I don't care that he lives
  • 00:03:36
    in Tunisia if I don't pay him that
  • 00:03:38
    someone else is going to pay him that
  • 00:03:39
    they're going to steal him from me right
  • 00:03:41
    so it's about the value you can provide
  • 00:03:43
    it's not where you live and I think
  • 00:03:45
    that's really a great thing this kind of
  • 00:03:46
    eliminates all those different barriers
  • 00:03:48
    that you might have in different
  • 00:03:49
    Industries because you can work anywhere
  • 00:03:51
    you want whenever you want at any time
  • 00:03:53
    zone for as long as you want you could
  • 00:03:55
    do 70 hour weeks you could do 20 hour
  • 00:03:57
    weeks there just so many different ways
  • 00:03:59
    to make money and I figured this out
  • 00:04:01
    quite early in my journey I started
  • 00:04:03
    learning how to code at 12 by the time I
  • 00:04:05
    was 14 I was making money not very much
  • 00:04:07
    money but I was tutoring people making
  • 00:04:09
    10 20 30 bucks a week by the time I was
  • 00:04:11
    16 I was getting paid double what my
  • 00:04:13
    colleagues were because I knew how to
  • 00:04:15
    code and I was teaching that at of
  • 00:04:16
    summer camp by the time I was 17 I made
  • 00:04:19
    about30 $40,000 in a single year which
  • 00:04:22
    is crazy if you think about being in
  • 00:04:23
    grade 12 going into first year
  • 00:04:24
    university when I was 18 I made over
  • 00:04:26
    $100,000 when I was 19 I made over2
  • 00:04:30
    $50,000 which out earned my parents at
  • 00:04:32
    that point in time by the time I was 20
  • 00:04:34
    I was making high multiple six figures
  • 00:04:37
    and beyond that I've made millions of
  • 00:04:39
    dollars in a single year and in a career
  • 00:04:41
    simply because I know how to code now
  • 00:04:43
    obviously you compounded you add skills
  • 00:04:45
    on top of that but it all came from that
  • 00:04:48
    Foundation having a high value skill
  • 00:04:50
    that allowed you to contribute something
  • 00:04:52
    to the marketplace is what you need to
  • 00:04:54
    start with and then you start to realize
  • 00:04:56
    quite quickly damn I can build this up
  • 00:04:58
    build this up build this up to the point
  • 00:04:59
    where making just so much money it's
  • 00:05:01
    actually unbelievable now I don't say
  • 00:05:03
    that to brag genuinely a lot of you guys
  • 00:05:05
    know I'm a fairly humble person but I
  • 00:05:07
    want to get you pumped up I want to get
  • 00:05:08
    you motivated I want to get you inspired
  • 00:05:10
    and this is more of a closed community
  • 00:05:11
    so I want to actually share with you
  • 00:05:13
    kind of those hidden gems and secrets
  • 00:05:15
    that allow you to really make some
  • 00:05:17
    serious money to the point where you are
  • 00:05:19
    actually financially free you have that
  • 00:05:21
    location Independence and you can work
  • 00:05:23
    whenever you want which I think for many
  • 00:05:25
    of you is the ultimate goal so with that
  • 00:05:27
    said hopefully I got you excited let's
  • 00:05:29
    get into the next video here and let's
  • 00:05:30
    talk about how you actually make money
  • 00:05:33
    from coding all right video two let's
  • 00:05:35
    get right into it I've got 14 different
  • 00:05:37
    methods to share with you in terms of
  • 00:05:39
    how you can make money from coding I'm
  • 00:05:40
    going to give you a quick explanation of
  • 00:05:42
    each but I'm going to try not to drag it
  • 00:05:44
    on and at some point in time we will
  • 00:05:46
    make a much more in-depth course that
  • 00:05:48
    breaks down all of these and kind of
  • 00:05:49
    goes through different strategies
  • 00:05:51
    methods getting clients Etc but for now
  • 00:05:53
    I just want to give you all the
  • 00:05:54
    different methods so you can start
  • 00:05:56
    experimenting with something today now
  • 00:05:58
    I've got a uh sheet in front of me so if
  • 00:06:00
    you see me reading my monitor I'm just
  • 00:06:01
    going through the list no particular
  • 00:06:03
    order here let's start with number one
  • 00:06:06
    freelancing now freelancing pretty much
  • 00:06:08
    just means you're kind of on your own
  • 00:06:10
    and you just do random side jobs you do
  • 00:06:12
    gig work maybe you're doing some hourly
  • 00:06:13
    work for a company maybe you're
  • 00:06:15
    finishing some project here but you can
  • 00:06:17
    work for whoever you want whenever you
  • 00:06:19
    want for the number of hours you want
  • 00:06:20
    obviously assuming that you're getting
  • 00:06:22
    paid by that company for those number of
  • 00:06:23
    hours you're not an employee you don't
  • 00:06:25
    have benefits you're not tied down to a
  • 00:06:26
    set schedule and usually it's just
  • 00:06:28
    you're going to do a certain number of
  • 00:06:29
    hours or you're going to finish a
  • 00:06:31
    specific project I've done freelancing
  • 00:06:33
    anywhere from $20 per hour back when I
  • 00:06:36
    was super young and just doing like
  • 00:06:37
    really some very side gig type work that
  • 00:06:40
    was super simple that they probably
  • 00:06:42
    could have done themselves all the way
  • 00:06:43
    up to
  • 00:06:44
    $400 per hour I know sounds insane but
  • 00:06:47
    if you're really good you can get paid
  • 00:06:49
    to work at those kind of rates typically
  • 00:06:52
    now when I do freelancing the rate is
  • 00:06:53
    more like $150 to $200 per hour and
  • 00:06:57
    that's a fairly typical rate for a
  • 00:06:59
    moreor ior developer who has kind of a
  • 00:07:01
    broad scope of work that they could
  • 00:07:02
    potentially be be working on now as a
  • 00:07:05
    junior developer you can easily be
  • 00:07:07
    getting paid 5060 $70 per hour for
  • 00:07:10
    freelancing depends what company you're
  • 00:07:12
    working for and what you're doing but
  • 00:07:13
    you can make quite a bit of money and
  • 00:07:15
    where the real money is that is when you
  • 00:07:16
    do project-based freelancing so for
  • 00:07:19
    example you build a website for someone
  • 00:07:21
    and you just charge them a flat fee and
  • 00:07:23
    you do that based on the value you're
  • 00:07:24
    going to be providing them not how long
  • 00:07:26
    it's going to take you right so you can
  • 00:07:27
    make a website for five grand that takes
  • 00:07:29
    you5 hours you just now got paid $11,000
  • 00:07:31
    per hour the person doesn't care how
  • 00:07:33
    long it took you they just wanted their
  • 00:07:34
    website done right so freelancing all
  • 00:07:36
    kinds of stuff you can do there next
  • 00:07:38
    tutoring this is my personal favorite
  • 00:07:41
    one like if you're just getting started
  • 00:07:42
    out not only is this really good for you
  • 00:07:45
    but it's the easiest way to start making
  • 00:07:46
    money immediately because people always
  • 00:07:49
    need one-on-one help and you can find
  • 00:07:51
    clients quite easily because for example
  • 00:07:53
    let's say you're in University you can
  • 00:07:54
    literally go to the wall and you can
  • 00:07:56
    post a sheet of paper that has those
  • 00:07:58
    little tabs where they can take phone
  • 00:07:59
    number they could take your email you
  • 00:08:01
    can say hey I'm doing one-on-one
  • 00:08:02
    tutoring for computer science or for
  • 00:08:04
    whatever the course is that you want to
  • 00:08:06
    tutor doesn't even have to be
  • 00:08:07
    programming in this case so many people
  • 00:08:09
    need tutoring and I've done tutoring
  • 00:08:11
    sessions anywhere from probably 5 or $10
  • 00:08:14
    an hour up to $200 per hour when you're
  • 00:08:17
    dealing with a really rich client who
  • 00:08:18
    really wants stuff to get done so please
  • 00:08:21
    don't rule this one out like if you're
  • 00:08:22
    just getting started and you have a
  • 00:08:24
    little bit of knowledge and like you're
  • 00:08:25
    better than some other people around you
  • 00:08:27
    you can absolutely teach them even the
  • 00:08:29
    little bit that you know if that helps
  • 00:08:31
    someone pass a course if that helps
  • 00:08:32
    someone finish an assignment or get you
  • 00:08:34
    know a C+ when they would have failed
  • 00:08:36
    like that is still super valuable to
  • 00:08:38
    them and you can even get into group
  • 00:08:40
    tutoring where you do a session with say
  • 00:08:42
    10 people they each pay you 20 bucks
  • 00:08:44
    there you go that's $200 so really a
  • 00:08:46
    business model to look into and my
  • 00:08:47
    personal favorite one that I've made
  • 00:08:49
    probably in lifetime maybe 20 $330,000
  • 00:08:52
    from doing and it's been very much on
  • 00:08:54
    the side not something I took super
  • 00:08:55
    seriously next tutorials now obviously
  • 00:08:59
    if you have have a big social media
  • 00:09:00
    presence like mine you can just post
  • 00:09:01
    tutorials and you get paid by AdSense
  • 00:09:03
    and whatnot but a lot of companies
  • 00:09:05
    actually need people to make tutorials
  • 00:09:07
    for specific Frameworks libraries
  • 00:09:09
    languages whatever it may be there's
  • 00:09:12
    quite a few jobs uh that a lot of people
  • 00:09:14
    don't know about that are actually
  • 00:09:15
    specifically like technical writing or
  • 00:09:17
    it's making video tutorials for a
  • 00:09:19
    platform I have friends that have pretty
  • 00:09:21
    much no social media presence but are
  • 00:09:22
    pretty decent teachers and they get paid
  • 00:09:24
    something like $2,000 per tutorial video
  • 00:09:27
    they make for other YouTubers channels
  • 00:09:30
    so they're they don't have a big YouTube
  • 00:09:31
    channels they just were able to kind of
  • 00:09:33
    connect with this company and they now
  • 00:09:36
    make videos that post on this company's
  • 00:09:38
    YouTube channel and they get paid a flat
  • 00:09:40
    Us doll rate per tutorial that they're
  • 00:09:43
    making now you can also do tutorials and
  • 00:09:45
    other mediums right tax based tutorials
  • 00:09:47
    blog articles all kinds of different
  • 00:09:49
    Avenues here and I believe even if you
  • 00:09:51
    go the medium route you're doing like
  • 00:09:53
    medium based tutorials you can get paid
  • 00:09:55
    for those or at least you can get some
  • 00:09:56
    exposure next personal brand now this
  • 00:09:59
    one is obviously going to be a lot more
  • 00:10:01
    dedicated some you're probably going to
  • 00:10:02
    have to take more fulltime or eventually
  • 00:10:04
    you'll want to be taking it more
  • 00:10:06
    seriously but even if you're a complete
  • 00:10:08
    beginner like starting a series like you
  • 00:10:10
    know learning to code in a 100 days
  • 00:10:12
    right and every single day you post a
  • 00:10:13
    Tik Tok video or you do an Instagram
  • 00:10:15
    post and kind of share what you're
  • 00:10:16
    learning you can very quickly build up a
  • 00:10:18
    following and some of the best channels
  • 00:10:21
    when it comes to personal brands are
  • 00:10:22
    people that are relatable right so in my
  • 00:10:24
    case it's hard for me to be like oh yeah
  • 00:10:26
    you know I'm just learning how to code
  • 00:10:27
    and I've been doing it for 10 years you
  • 00:10:29
    guys can't can't relate to me like I am
  • 00:10:30
    an expert level programmer at this point
  • 00:10:32
    as much as I can teach you stuff it's
  • 00:10:34
    not that relatable type content right so
  • 00:10:36
    if you're someone who's more of a
  • 00:10:38
    beginner intermediate you can make a
  • 00:10:40
    personal brand related to coding related
  • 00:10:42
    to your journey it doesn't have to be
  • 00:10:44
    tutorials and Technical content like I
  • 00:10:46
    would do it can be more lifestyle and
  • 00:10:48
    you know what it looks like learning
  • 00:10:50
    coding in 2024 whatever year you're
  • 00:10:52
    watching this completely from scratch
  • 00:10:54
    something to consider a lot of
  • 00:10:55
    opportunities here and having a personal
  • 00:10:57
    brand will bring you so many uh
  • 00:11:00
    opportunities that you've just never
  • 00:11:01
    thought of before you'll get job offers
  • 00:11:03
    you get people wanting to do brand deals
  • 00:11:05
    you get collaborations you'll meet
  • 00:11:06
    incredible people and obviously in my
  • 00:11:08
    situation I never like was really trying
  • 00:11:10
    to build a personal brand but it kind of
  • 00:11:12
    just happened and then once I started
  • 00:11:13
    seeing all those great benefits I took
  • 00:11:15
    it a lot more seriously and and built
  • 00:11:17
    mine up right next we have SAS this is
  • 00:11:19
    software as a service and this is great
  • 00:11:22
    because you can just go out there and
  • 00:11:23
    you can build some software that people
  • 00:11:25
    want to pay for and there's so much
  • 00:11:27
    shitty software out there that people
  • 00:11:28
    pay for just because it's the only thing
  • 00:11:30
    they know or it's what they rely on for
  • 00:11:32
    their day-to-day and you can see so many
  • 00:11:34
    different companies that have software
  • 00:11:36
    as a service whether it's good or
  • 00:11:37
    whether it's bad they make so much money
  • 00:11:39
    and with SAS businesses as well if you
  • 00:11:41
    have a lot of recurring Revenue so
  • 00:11:43
    monthly or annual revenue you'll end up
  • 00:11:45
    getting a pretty large multiplier if you
  • 00:11:47
    do decide to ever exit that business I
  • 00:11:49
    have a close friend of mine who ran a
  • 00:11:51
    SAS business wasn't that great of a
  • 00:11:53
    developer like he was really more at
  • 00:11:54
    that intermediate stage was nowhere near
  • 00:11:56
    where I would be or some of the other
  • 00:11:58
    people in this community he built a SAS
  • 00:12:00
    business I don't remember exactly what
  • 00:12:02
    the service was but it was something
  • 00:12:04
    relatively simple I think he ended up
  • 00:12:06
    getting about 10,000 users and then he
  • 00:12:08
    sold the company now he didn't make you
  • 00:12:10
    know millions of dollars doing that but
  • 00:12:12
    he made a few hundred, that was great
  • 00:12:15
    and now he's got a cush he can go do
  • 00:12:16
    whatever the hell he wants so something
  • 00:12:18
    to consider if you are interested in
  • 00:12:19
    building software think about okay who
  • 00:12:22
    can I actually service here what's going
  • 00:12:23
    to be valuable how can I get paid for it
  • 00:12:26
    and you can make a fair amount of money
  • 00:12:27
    and even if it fails it's great
  • 00:12:28
    experience and it's something that you
  • 00:12:30
    can throw on your resume and that looks
  • 00:12:31
    good next mobile apps so many shitty
  • 00:12:35
    mobile apps out there that people pay a
  • 00:12:37
    lot of money for uh especially things
  • 00:12:39
    you know like you got fitness trackers
  • 00:12:40
    weight trackers uh Habit trackers like
  • 00:12:43
    anyone can make one of those types of
  • 00:12:45
    apps and if you're able to Market it
  • 00:12:46
    well get a few users you have some inapp
  • 00:12:49
    currency or something along those lines
  • 00:12:51
    you can make Fair a fair amount of money
  • 00:12:52
    from mobile applications so again
  • 00:12:55
    another method and also obviously if you
  • 00:12:56
    like building mobile apps something fun
  • 00:12:58
    to do try to get a monetization angle on
  • 00:13:01
    that next we have WordPress or Shopify
  • 00:13:04
    themes now not directly related to
  • 00:13:06
    coding but something that can be really
  • 00:13:09
    really lucrative especially if you get
  • 00:13:11
    one of those top themes so go on Shopify
  • 00:13:13
    right and see how many different themes
  • 00:13:14
    there are obviously you can pay for them
  • 00:13:16
    you can also buy WordPress themes you
  • 00:13:17
    can buy just pre-made HTML and CSS
  • 00:13:20
    templates and if you get quite a few
  • 00:13:22
    downloads you can get some high volume
  • 00:13:23
    you can make a lot of money definitely
  • 00:13:25
    check that out if you've never seen it
  • 00:13:26
    because it's not that much work you know
  • 00:13:28
    maybe maybe it takes you a few days you
  • 00:13:30
    build this theme out and I mean even if
  • 00:13:32
    it sits there and it gets a few sales a
  • 00:13:33
    month like that's some great side income
  • 00:13:35
    that I don't think anyone will be
  • 00:13:36
    complaining about next we have technical
  • 00:13:38
    writing now writing documentation is a
  • 00:13:41
    huge pain no one wants to do it I don't
  • 00:13:42
    want to do it a lot of you probably
  • 00:13:43
    don't want to do it but if you're into
  • 00:13:45
    writing and if you're actually good at
  • 00:13:46
    English this can be a really valuable uh
  • 00:13:49
    thing to do because you don't need to be
  • 00:13:50
    an expert level programmer what people
  • 00:13:52
    are really looking for is okay they're
  • 00:13:54
    decn at programming like they've got the
  • 00:13:56
    basics down they're good enough that
  • 00:13:58
    they understand what's going on and
  • 00:14:00
    they're a good writer those two skill
  • 00:14:02
    sets combined uh really make you quite
  • 00:14:04
    valuable and you can get full-time jobs
  • 00:14:05
    doing this or you can do it more as a
  • 00:14:07
    freelance or a side gig next we have
  • 00:14:09
    helping small businesses now this kind
  • 00:14:11
    of cane with any of the other things
  • 00:14:13
    that I mentioned before but some of my
  • 00:14:15
    favorite projects are where you just go
  • 00:14:17
    to a small business that doesn't have a
  • 00:14:18
    website or they don't have any marketing
  • 00:14:20
    or they don't have some tool that would
  • 00:14:22
    save them like tens of hours per week
  • 00:14:24
    and you build it for them and the great
  • 00:14:26
    thing is that it doesn't need to be
  • 00:14:27
    perfect it doesn't need to be amazing
  • 00:14:28
    you're not building a new website for
  • 00:14:30
    Facebook you're building it for like the
  • 00:14:31
    local bakery down the down the street
  • 00:14:33
    and it's a lot more relatable however it
  • 00:14:35
    does involve some sales which could be a
  • 00:14:38
    bit difficult for some of us right now
  • 00:14:40
    just to give you a specific example for
  • 00:14:41
    this one actually when I did work at the
  • 00:14:43
    summer camp not necessarily a small
  • 00:14:44
    business but it kind of fits in this
  • 00:14:46
    category I noticed that the admins that
  • 00:14:49
    were in uh like the head office they
  • 00:14:51
    would do scheduling for all of the
  • 00:14:52
    different groups of kids manually every
  • 00:14:55
    single week so they would like pick them
  • 00:14:56
    out they would choose all the activities
  • 00:14:58
    they're going to be doing they would
  • 00:14:59
    like have to cross reference they had
  • 00:15:01
    like 20 sheets of paper out and they
  • 00:15:02
    were literally going with like
  • 00:15:03
    highlighters and x's and it took them
  • 00:15:05
    like a whole day to like do the
  • 00:15:07
    scheduling it was insane what they were
  • 00:15:08
    doing so I came in and I I saw them
  • 00:15:10
    doing this one day and I was like what
  • 00:15:12
    the heck what are you doing and they're
  • 00:15:14
    like oh we're doing all this uh this
  • 00:15:15
    scheduling I was like can you okay just
  • 00:15:17
    walk me through like how this works they
  • 00:15:18
    kind of told me their process I was like
  • 00:15:20
    okay give me like a few hours so I went
  • 00:15:22
    downstairs CED out some software that
  • 00:15:24
    just did exactly what they were doing
  • 00:15:26
    brought it to them and said hey like
  • 00:15:27
    how's this is this better and they like
  • 00:15:29
    it completely changed their life because
  • 00:15:31
    now they had another day every single
  • 00:15:33
    week where they didn't have to do this
  • 00:15:34
    there was a little bit of manual
  • 00:15:35
    checking that was involved with the
  • 00:15:37
    software that I had but it saved them
  • 00:15:39
    multiple hours per week and you have to
  • 00:15:41
    ask yourself like how much money would
  • 00:15:43
    you be willing to pay for something like
  • 00:15:44
    that that could save employees you know
  • 00:15:46
    two employees in this case eight hours a
  • 00:15:49
    week or something along those lines
  • 00:15:50
    right so if you can build this kind of
  • 00:15:51
    automation software small tools you can
  • 00:15:54
    just help increase efficiency even a
  • 00:15:56
    slight bit you can get paid a fair
  • 00:15:58
    amount to do that and you're actually
  • 00:15:59
    providing real value okay so now into
  • 00:16:01
    some more unique ones ones I don't think
  • 00:16:03
    you guys may have actually considered
  • 00:16:05
    before and what I've got here is bug
  • 00:16:07
    bounties now quite a few companies
  • 00:16:09
    release bug bounties now what this means
  • 00:16:11
    is if you find a bug or an exploit in
  • 00:16:13
    the software and you report it to them
  • 00:16:15
    they'll pay you so they'll give you a
  • 00:16:17
    flat fee amount uh based on the type of
  • 00:16:19
    bug the severity of the bug Etc now
  • 00:16:21
    famously Google had some bug bounties
  • 00:16:23
    that were like a million dollar and
  • 00:16:25
    nowadays a lot of new companies will do
  • 00:16:27
    this one because they want want to get
  • 00:16:29
    some more exposure they want people
  • 00:16:30
    using their stuff but obviously they
  • 00:16:32
    want to make sure that if they're
  • 00:16:33
    growing really quickly you know they
  • 00:16:34
    don't crash and burn because they had a
  • 00:16:36
    few exploits or bugs that completely
  • 00:16:38
    burn the business down I remember I was
  • 00:16:40
    at uh eth Denver you guys some of you
  • 00:16:42
    may know this this conference and I was
  • 00:16:44
    sitting beside some guy in like the
  • 00:16:45
    cafeteria and I was asking him what he
  • 00:16:47
    does and he said oh I do bug bounties I
  • 00:16:49
    was like what do you mean you do bug
  • 00:16:50
    bounties like yeah literally all I do
  • 00:16:51
    every single day is I just go and I like
  • 00:16:53
    hack different websites and companies
  • 00:16:55
    and I get paid to do that I'm like like
  • 00:16:57
    you make a living doing that and he like
  • 00:16:59
    smiled and like looked at his friend and
  • 00:17:01
    uh he was like yeah like the last one I
  • 00:17:03
    did was $250,000 for a bug Bounty and he
  • 00:17:05
    didn't make it sound like it was super
  • 00:17:07
    overly complicated I'm sure you know
  • 00:17:09
    it's probably beyond what many of us
  • 00:17:10
    have been able to do but something to
  • 00:17:12
    consider like if you're into that you do
  • 00:17:13
    ethical hacking bug bounties can be
  • 00:17:15
    pretty cool and you can make a ton of
  • 00:17:17
    money and there's a lot of these newer
  • 00:17:19
    companies that have some pretty
  • 00:17:20
    lucrative bug bounties that might not be
  • 00:17:21
    you know to the level of one like Google
  • 00:17:24
    Now next we've got hackathons now if you
  • 00:17:26
    guys are good if you have a team if you
  • 00:17:27
    want to build something out if you like
  • 00:17:29
    this experience you can actually make a
  • 00:17:30
    lot of money by competing in hackathons
  • 00:17:32
    or in different coding competitions and
  • 00:17:35
    winning now is this going to be
  • 00:17:36
    something you do as a full-time job
  • 00:17:37
    probably not but it's worth considering
  • 00:17:39
    like if there's local hackathon or this
  • 00:17:41
    one you want to go to first of all a lot
  • 00:17:43
    of times you can actually get paid to go
  • 00:17:45
    it's like they'll cover your flights
  • 00:17:46
    they'll cover all your expenses it's a
  • 00:17:48
    great time you learn a lot you meet some
  • 00:17:50
    good people so already the experience is
  • 00:17:52
    great I've done a few in my life I
  • 00:17:54
    didn't win any of them but I did quite
  • 00:17:55
    enjoy them and uh if you win like cash
  • 00:17:58
    prizes could be $20,000 for the winning
  • 00:18:00
    team or you could get some partnership
  • 00:18:02
    with this company or you get a new
  • 00:18:03
    computer like there's a bunch of cool
  • 00:18:05
    stuff you can get from hackathons uh
  • 00:18:07
    especially from some of the bigger ones
  • 00:18:08
    so something worth considering next we
  • 00:18:11
    have grants uh there's quite a few
  • 00:18:12
    companies that actually give out grants
  • 00:18:14
    to people that work with their
  • 00:18:15
    technology or that build something on it
  • 00:18:17
    now this is especially big in the web 3
  • 00:18:19
    space right now there's a lot of
  • 00:18:20
    blockchain companies that have a ton of
  • 00:18:22
    funding uh from Venture Capital firms
  • 00:18:25
    and they need to spend it and they also
  • 00:18:27
    need people to use their software so
  • 00:18:29
    they'll literally pay people $50,000 to
  • 00:18:32
    build one of the top projects on this
  • 00:18:34
    chain or in the case of some companies
  • 00:18:35
    I've worked with even if you're not a
  • 00:18:36
    crazy experienced developer if you go
  • 00:18:39
    and you build something on the Chain
  • 00:18:42
    then they'll just pay you money to do
  • 00:18:43
    that so you can go to them you can say
  • 00:18:45
    here here's my idea you're not competing
  • 00:18:47
    with anyone and they'll say okay we'll
  • 00:18:48
    give you $5,000 we'll give you $110,000
  • 00:18:51
    to fund your ideas that you have some
  • 00:18:53
    time to work on this you got some
  • 00:18:54
    experience they'll want to maybe do like
  • 00:18:56
    a survey with you or something or they
  • 00:18:57
    want to like demo your project when it's
  • 00:18:59
    done but the idea is there's so much
  • 00:19:01
    opportunity out there and there's
  • 00:19:03
    companies that literally have Grant
  • 00:19:04
    funds that are in like the tens of
  • 00:19:06
    millions of dollars that they're giving
  • 00:19:07
    out to hundreds of different projects
  • 00:19:09
    because they're trying to encourage
  • 00:19:11
    people to use their technology now
  • 00:19:13
    lastly I've got a great one here which
  • 00:19:14
    is ugc user generated content the tech
  • 00:19:18
    field recently has really been expanding
  • 00:19:20
    more into this influencer marketing and
  • 00:19:22
    specifically into the more micro
  • 00:19:23
    influencers so people that don't really
  • 00:19:25
    have any following or maybe have like
  • 00:19:27
    5,000 10,000 followers like a very small
  • 00:19:30
    amount and user generated content is
  • 00:19:32
    kind of I guess a field of this where
  • 00:19:34
    essentially what you can do is as
  • 00:19:35
    someone with no following at all you can
  • 00:19:38
    make content that shows you using
  • 00:19:40
    specific technology programming
  • 00:19:43
    languages Frameworks whatever it may be
  • 00:19:45
    and companies will pay you for that
  • 00:19:46
    because they'll then repurpose it as an
  • 00:19:48
    ad or they'll use it for kind of organic
  • 00:19:50
    media and post it on their social medias
  • 00:19:53
    I actually have quite a few friends that
  • 00:19:54
    do this user generate content usually
  • 00:19:57
    what it will involve is you need to set
  • 00:19:59
    up like a bit of a profile for yourself
  • 00:20:00
    you want to you know refine your
  • 00:20:02
    Instagram or refine your Tik Tok or
  • 00:20:04
    whatever and you start working with
  • 00:20:05
    companies for free where they'll just
  • 00:20:07
    send you some product for free that
  • 00:20:09
    you'll kind of make like a little video
  • 00:20:10
    about demoing you use it or just showing
  • 00:20:12
    it kind of in organic life now once you
  • 00:20:14
    build a little bit of experience doing
  • 00:20:16
    this and you make some good videos and
  • 00:20:17
    the companies like them then you start
  • 00:20:19
    negotiating for rates right so it could
  • 00:20:21
    be okay we're going to get $200 per
  • 00:20:22
    video we're going to get $500 per video
  • 00:20:25
    and eventually if you have any kind of
  • 00:20:26
    social media following you'll start to
  • 00:20:27
    kind of do a hybrid type deal where you
  • 00:20:29
    make the video for the company you give
  • 00:20:30
    them the ability to use it and then you
  • 00:20:32
    also post it on your social media and
  • 00:20:34
    they'll pay you for that reach and
  • 00:20:36
    exposure I don't want to get into this
  • 00:20:37
    too much because I'm not an expert and
  • 00:20:38
    we are probably going to make a full
  • 00:20:40
    course breaking down all of these really
  • 00:20:42
    really in depth but I wanted to share
  • 00:20:44
    that idea with you because I think for
  • 00:20:45
    quite a few people that's quite
  • 00:20:47
    interesting and in the tech space it's
  • 00:20:49
    not as saturated as like General product
  • 00:20:51
    reviews right so you actually can get in
  • 00:20:53
    there and probably immediately start
  • 00:20:55
    getting some deals there's a lot of
  • 00:20:56
    marketplaces opening up now for or user
  • 00:20:59
    generated content that kind of are
  • 00:21:00
    connecting the brands with the creators
  • 00:21:03
    which is quite interesting so there you
  • 00:21:04
    go guys that is my list of 14 different
  • 00:21:07
    ways to make money from coding now I
  • 00:21:09
    challenge you before clicking off this
  • 00:21:11
    video pick one of these and actually
  • 00:21:13
    give them a solid shot now I'm not going
  • 00:21:15
    to say it's easy I'm not going to
  • 00:21:16
    guarantee you you're going to make money
  • 00:21:18
    in your first day or your first hour
  • 00:21:20
    working on this these things are hard
  • 00:21:22
    and one of the reasons why they make a
  • 00:21:23
    lot of money is because many people
  • 00:21:25
    aren't actually going to do them if it
  • 00:21:27
    was easy everybody would do it and then
  • 00:21:29
    we would have no leverage here using
  • 00:21:31
    coding as a skill but I challenge you
  • 00:21:33
    pick one of them no excuses I guarantee
  • 00:21:36
    no matter who you are no matter where
  • 00:21:38
    you're from no matter your experience
  • 00:21:39
    you can do at least one and again I
  • 00:21:42
    really challenge you to work on them
  • 00:21:43
    share your experience with us in the
  • 00:21:45
    community if you've done any of these in
  • 00:21:47
    the past and you have some more insight
  • 00:21:49
    you want to share we would love to see
  • 00:21:50
    your post with that said let's get into
  • 00:21:52
    the next video where we're going to talk
  • 00:21:53
    about a bit of a mindset shift you need
  • 00:21:55
    to have if you want to make these
  • 00:21:56
    successful all right so let's get into
  • 00:21:58
    video three which is going to tie nicely
  • 00:22:00
    in with video two now in that video I
  • 00:22:02
    mentioned all the different ways to make
  • 00:22:03
    money coding and notice that I didn't
  • 00:22:06
    mention a job as one of them now
  • 00:22:08
    obviously this is a way to make money
  • 00:22:10
    coding I just thought it was pretty
  • 00:22:11
    obvious and that's kind of a cheat for
  • 00:22:12
    me to put in there because obvious you
  • 00:22:14
    guys know that you can go get a software
  • 00:22:15
    developer job and you can make money
  • 00:22:16
    doing that what I wanted to do is start
  • 00:22:18
    getting you thinking about ways that you
  • 00:22:20
    can make money without having a job and
  • 00:22:22
    how you can actually transform your life
  • 00:22:24
    to be something a bit more unique and
  • 00:22:26
    different than just being a n to five
  • 00:22:28
    employee but in this video I do want to
  • 00:22:31
    encourage you to ask yourself what is it
  • 00:22:33
    that you want out of this skill so
  • 00:22:35
    learning how to code and what is it that
  • 00:22:37
    you want out of life and the reason I'm
  • 00:22:39
    asking you that is because there's two
  • 00:22:41
    very very different paths you can go
  • 00:22:42
    down here but you don't really want to
  • 00:22:44
    be jumping between them a ton because it
  • 00:22:46
    will really limit the amount of progress
  • 00:22:48
    you can make in either of these
  • 00:22:49
    directions now Direction one is to get a
  • 00:22:52
    software developer job you usually will
  • 00:22:54
    not start out at a huge tech company
  • 00:22:56
    most people don't you'll start somewhere
  • 00:22:58
    probably a shitty company and you will
  • 00:23:00
    work your way up that company and then
  • 00:23:01
    switch different roles and switch
  • 00:23:02
    different jobs now if you get a career
  • 00:23:05
    in software development if you're a good
  • 00:23:06
    developer this is a actually a pretty
  • 00:23:08
    stable career especially once you've
  • 00:23:09
    built a bit of experience you make a
  • 00:23:12
    very good amount of money and if you are
  • 00:23:13
    fortunate enough to get into a large
  • 00:23:15
    tech company or even into a startup that
  • 00:23:17
    ends up doing really well you can become
  • 00:23:19
    a millionaire quite quickly and you can
  • 00:23:21
    make a lot of money that is a much more
  • 00:23:23
    guaranteed income Source than if you
  • 00:23:25
    were to be an entrepreneur for example
  • 00:23:27
    if you work at Google by the time you've
  • 00:23:29
    been working at Google for four or five
  • 00:23:30
    years you will very reasonably be at
  • 00:23:33
    close to $300,000 per year in total
  • 00:23:35
    compensation if you are able to climb
  • 00:23:37
    that rank even higher many people just
  • 00:23:39
    stay there but you could climb higher it
  • 00:23:40
    is not unreasonable to be making 500 600
  • 00:23:43
    $700,000 per year I know people in their
  • 00:23:46
    mid-30s that make $800 to $900,000 per
  • 00:23:48
    year working at a big tech company some
  • 00:23:50
    of them are not even named companies now
  • 00:23:53
    they aren't named companies but a lot of
  • 00:23:54
    them are privately traded or they're
  • 00:23:56
    just not ones that you may have even
  • 00:23:58
    heard of before they just do something
  • 00:23:59
    very very specific and they're very good
  • 00:24:01
    at their job so with that said like if
  • 00:24:03
    your goal is just make as much money as
  • 00:24:05
    possible you may want to consider going
  • 00:24:07
    down that route and if you really grind
  • 00:24:09
    to get into those type of companies and
  • 00:24:10
    you really focus on your career playing
  • 00:24:12
    the politics learning how the corporate
  • 00:24:14
    culture works you're going to be
  • 00:24:16
    successful in that realm and it's going
  • 00:24:17
    to be more guaranteed you know by the
  • 00:24:19
    time you're in your mid-30s you're going
  • 00:24:21
    to be a millionaire no matter what if
  • 00:24:22
    you stay on that path now we have the
  • 00:24:25
    other side right which is kind of doing
  • 00:24:27
    your own thing being an entrepreneur now
  • 00:24:30
    the advantage here is that you get all
  • 00:24:31
    those levels of freedoms that you don't
  • 00:24:33
    have when you work for a company you
  • 00:24:35
    have time Freedom you have location
  • 00:24:36
    freedom and the Financial Freedom is the
  • 00:24:38
    one that you need to build yourself
  • 00:24:40
    whereas on the other side you don't have
  • 00:24:41
    time freedom and you don't have location
  • 00:24:43
    Freedom typically but Financial Freedom
  • 00:24:45
    is more guaranteed so you kind of have
  • 00:24:46
    to pick you know what side do I want to
  • 00:24:49
    be on and what do I want to do so
  • 00:24:51
    actually ask yourself that question sit
  • 00:24:53
    down have like a deep introspection
  • 00:24:55
    section uh session sorry and think about
  • 00:24:58
    carefully because this is not for
  • 00:24:59
    everyone now if you are someone who
  • 00:25:01
    wants to be more of an entrepreneur you
  • 00:25:02
    need to realize that you know this is a
  • 00:25:03
    journey just like it is going down the
  • 00:25:05
    career path the thing is that your
  • 00:25:08
    reward can be way higher right the
  • 00:25:10
    upside is completely uncapped you can
  • 00:25:12
    make unlimited amount of money there's
  • 00:25:14
    there's no cap on your potential it's
  • 00:25:15
    really just up to you what you end up
  • 00:25:17
    doing and typically if you really really
  • 00:25:19
    go hard at it and you know what you're
  • 00:25:21
    doing you're going to grow it and it's
  • 00:25:22
    not really going to be stagnant right
  • 00:25:23
    it's going to continue going up and up
  • 00:25:25
    now with that said to do that you have
  • 00:25:26
    to put in probably more work than you
  • 00:25:28
    would trying to climb the career in like
  • 00:25:30
    a corporate 9 to-5 ladder and you will
  • 00:25:33
    be sacrificing quite a bit at the
  • 00:25:34
    beginning to get to that point so I
  • 00:25:37
    think that's enough I think you guys
  • 00:25:38
    probably understand the advantages of
  • 00:25:39
    Entrepreneurship disadvantages Etc now
  • 00:25:42
    let's talk about how you make that shift
  • 00:25:44
    especially in development well you need
  • 00:25:46
    to immediately start thinking more like
  • 00:25:48
    a CEO boss business person than you do
  • 00:25:51
    like an employee or like a developer and
  • 00:25:53
    this is very difficult because our
  • 00:25:54
    brains typically if we're in this space
  • 00:25:56
    are wired to be thinking critic thinking
  • 00:25:58
    logically problem solving reasoning as
  • 00:26:01
    much as those are important in business
  • 00:26:03
    that's not necessarily what's going to
  • 00:26:05
    make you a lot of money right you can be
  • 00:26:07
    a good developer and still be broke or
  • 00:26:08
    still not be very good at a lot of the
  • 00:26:11
    skills that I listed in that previous
  • 00:26:13
    section so you need to immediately kind
  • 00:26:15
    of turn off the oh I'm an employee hat
  • 00:26:17
    and oh I work for $50 an hour or I do
  • 00:26:19
    this or oh my time is worth x amount of
  • 00:26:21
    money to how do I scale a business how
  • 00:26:24
    do I leverage my time as well as
  • 00:26:26
    possible and this is the big word
  • 00:26:28
    leverage right how do I use my time as
  • 00:26:30
    effectively as possible for some of you
  • 00:26:31
    that is simply working for $50 an hour
  • 00:26:34
    but for others it's doing different
  • 00:26:36
    types of activities and trying to buy
  • 00:26:38
    back your time and Outsource different
  • 00:26:40
    things now I'll give you a specific
  • 00:26:41
    example because I know this is kind of
  • 00:26:43
    big let's say that you are a good
  • 00:26:46
    developer okay you can do pretty much
  • 00:26:47
    anything you can code anything out
  • 00:26:49
    you're really good you're at like an
  • 00:26:50
    expert level now you could simply work
  • 00:26:53
    for everyone and no matter what you do
  • 00:26:55
    you could just charge $200 an hour now
  • 00:26:57
    you know know you're going to make $200
  • 00:26:59
    an hour at this point like you are kind
  • 00:27:01
    of an entrepreneur cuz you're doing
  • 00:27:02
    freelance stuff but at the end of the
  • 00:27:03
    day you're really just working as an
  • 00:27:04
    employee and like your amount of income
  • 00:27:06
    is limited by the amount of hours that
  • 00:27:07
    you can work now if you were to instead
  • 00:27:10
    of just charging by hour charge per
  • 00:27:13
    project and based on the value you
  • 00:27:14
    provide you can completely substantially
  • 00:27:17
    change the amount of money you're going
  • 00:27:18
    to make it could be way lower or it
  • 00:27:19
    could be way greater and I'll share with
  • 00:27:21
    you what I mean you could go work for
  • 00:27:23
    like a little mom and pop shops right
  • 00:27:25
    when I say go work I me do a project for
  • 00:27:26
    them you could maybe make them a web it
  • 00:27:28
    and the value you're going to provide
  • 00:27:29
    them is you're going to give them some
  • 00:27:30
    exposure and let's say you can maybe
  • 00:27:32
    generate them 10 new clients a month
  • 00:27:35
    maybe each client that comes into the
  • 00:27:36
    bakery or whatever store it is pays 3040
  • 00:27:39
    $50 as an average purchase you've
  • 00:27:41
    generated let's say approximately $400
  • 00:27:44
    in value in one month the reason is
  • 00:27:46
    because well that's how much value they
  • 00:27:47
    got from what you built they didn't pay
  • 00:27:49
    you because you were good at building a
  • 00:27:50
    website they paid you because you could
  • 00:27:52
    get them clients right and they would
  • 00:27:53
    have paid someone else the same if not
  • 00:27:55
    more if they could have got them more
  • 00:27:56
    clients if it came from something other
  • 00:27:57
    than the website so in this case you're
  • 00:27:59
    not framing your skill set in the light
  • 00:28:01
    of oh I'm good at making websites I mean
  • 00:28:03
    gu that's what you're going to do for
  • 00:28:04
    them but you're saying I'm going to get
  • 00:28:05
    you clients the way I will do that is
  • 00:28:08
    because I have this skill set that's in
  • 00:28:10
    development now that's a pretty low um
  • 00:28:12
    leverage or pretty low value use of your
  • 00:28:14
    time because you're working for very
  • 00:28:16
    minimal value that you can generate now
  • 00:28:18
    let's say we move it up a little bit and
  • 00:28:19
    you now go and you work for a big
  • 00:28:21
    company let's say you're doing
  • 00:28:22
    freelancing for Microsoft and what
  • 00:28:24
    you're going to do is you're going to
  • 00:28:25
    build this automation tool that's going
  • 00:28:27
    to save one ,000 hours a month because
  • 00:28:29
    all these employees will now no longer
  • 00:28:31
    need to do this task that's really
  • 00:28:32
    repetitive and that could be automated I
  • 00:28:34
    know this is an extreme example but just
  • 00:28:36
    bear with me um to kind of get to the
  • 00:28:37
    point here so now in this instance
  • 00:28:39
    you've saved a th000 hours of developer
  • 00:28:41
    time per month how much is developer
  • 00:28:44
    time worth let's say on the low side
  • 00:28:45
    it's worth $1,000 you can do that
  • 00:28:47
    multiplication and now you've generated
  • 00:28:49
    $100,000 in value or whatever that
  • 00:28:51
    amount ends up being right what's
  • 00:28:53
    changed is not what you're capable of
  • 00:28:55
    doing you're a developer you can write
  • 00:28:57
    code you could have just written code
  • 00:28:58
    for either of these companies at $200
  • 00:29:00
    per hour instead what you've done now is
  • 00:29:02
    you've changed who you're working for
  • 00:29:04
    and the amount of value you can
  • 00:29:06
    potentially provide and the amount of
  • 00:29:07
    value you can provide is not really
  • 00:29:09
    based on the skill that you're doing
  • 00:29:10
    it's based on the person that you're
  • 00:29:11
    working for and the client that you have
  • 00:29:14
    so this is just one example of how you
  • 00:29:15
    shift from the employee mindset to the
  • 00:29:18
    business mindset you start looking for
  • 00:29:19
    the places where you can inject the most
  • 00:29:21
    amount of value and you then extract a
  • 00:29:24
    portion of that value right so if I were
  • 00:29:26
    to generate $100,000 in value for a CL
  • 00:29:28
    I'm not taking $100,000 maybe I take3 or
  • 00:29:31
    $40,000 some percentage of it because
  • 00:29:33
    that's reasonable now I'll give you an
  • 00:29:35
    example in my case making YouTube videos
  • 00:29:37
    right I could easily make a YouTube
  • 00:29:39
    video and I can promote some like stupid
  • 00:29:42
    thing like a fidget spinner right like
  • 00:29:43
    you guys will probably buy some of you
  • 00:29:45
    will buy that right some of you will
  • 00:29:46
    enjoy it but the thing is the amount of
  • 00:29:47
    value I'm providing by promoting that is
  • 00:29:50
    pretty low because it's a lowc cost item
  • 00:29:52
    even if hundreds of you buy it it's
  • 00:29:53
    still only going to generate like a few
  • 00:29:55
    grand right not that much in sales
  • 00:29:56
    whereas if I were to promote I really
  • 00:29:58
    High ticket item that is something
  • 00:29:59
    that's much more in the niche that makes
  • 00:30:00
    a lot more sense I'm going to be able to
  • 00:30:02
    get much more money or get paid a lot
  • 00:30:04
    more money to do that because it's just
  • 00:30:06
    more reasonable right it makes more
  • 00:30:07
    sense it can generate more money for the
  • 00:30:09
    client so rather than me pricing say a
  • 00:30:12
    brand deal which is something I do all
  • 00:30:13
    the time based on okay I always just
  • 00:30:15
    charge $4,000 because I get this amount
  • 00:30:17
    of views the price for my brand deal
  • 00:30:19
    depends completely on the company that's
  • 00:30:21
    working with me with that brand deal if
  • 00:30:23
    it's a company where I can't generate
  • 00:30:24
    that much value I can't charge that much
  • 00:30:26
    if it's a company where I can generate
  • 00:30:28
    ton of value then the price goes up now
  • 00:30:30
    again like I know this is kind of basic
  • 00:30:32
    stuff but what I'm trying to get you to
  • 00:30:33
    think about is that you need to use your
  • 00:30:35
    time and position yourself in areas
  • 00:30:38
    where you can generate the most amount
  • 00:30:39
    of money and that doesn't really rely on
  • 00:30:42
    what your skill set is it's really who
  • 00:30:44
    you're serving and what you can do for
  • 00:30:47
    other people right so that means picking
  • 00:30:49
    the best clients finding the best
  • 00:30:51
    opportunities building the best
  • 00:30:52
    Partnerships and you can do this in many
  • 00:30:54
    different ways that I want to get into
  • 00:30:56
    much more in depth in another course but
  • 00:30:58
    you need to completely shift the way
  • 00:31:00
    your brain works from like I'm worth
  • 00:31:01
    this much power to where can I go what
  • 00:31:04
    can I do where I can generate as much
  • 00:31:07
    value as possible and then take some of
  • 00:31:09
    that value back that's really the key
  • 00:31:12
    and that's what I've learned over the
  • 00:31:13
    past 10 years starting by doing what
  • 00:31:15
    many of you probably do just charging
  • 00:31:16
    per hour or charging a flat fee or doing
  • 00:31:18
    something like that to saying no no no
  • 00:31:20
    like I need to find the areas where I am
  • 00:31:23
    actually leveraging my time the best and
  • 00:31:25
    where my time equates to the most amount
  • 00:31:27
    of money and again a lot of the times
  • 00:31:29
    it's not really your skill set it's who
  • 00:31:30
    you're working for the clients and um
  • 00:31:32
    what you're able to do for them so
  • 00:31:34
    that's just one small example so that's
  • 00:31:36
    the key point and what you need to do
  • 00:31:37
    early on is you need to discover and
  • 00:31:40
    find where you are most valuable right
  • 00:31:42
    I'm not saying this is easy I'm not
  • 00:31:43
    saying you know this day one and you do
  • 00:31:45
    that by trying a lot of different things
  • 00:31:47
    experimenting messing around trying this
  • 00:31:49
    trying that failing in different Avenues
  • 00:31:52
    tutoring realizing okay it's not really
  • 00:31:53
    worth my time to tutor instead I'm going
  • 00:31:55
    to do this oh this actually I feel like
  • 00:31:56
    I'm getting paid a good amount okay let
  • 00:31:58
    me try something like this right you
  • 00:31:59
    keep moving around and adjusting until
  • 00:32:01
    you tap into where you are actually the
  • 00:32:04
    most valuable and what's going to tell
  • 00:32:06
    you that is when people start paying you
  • 00:32:07
    money to do those things which also
  • 00:32:09
    means you have to be comfortable asking
  • 00:32:11
    for money that you've never received
  • 00:32:13
    before setting some crazy high price
  • 00:32:15
    that you don't think anyone will
  • 00:32:16
    actually pay like you mess around and
  • 00:32:18
    find your value in the marketplace by
  • 00:32:19
    experimenting and seeing what people
  • 00:32:21
    will pay just bluntly with you guys if I
  • 00:32:23
    do a brand deal or something along those
  • 00:32:25
    lines I will just throw random numbers
  • 00:32:27
    to company that maybe I don't care that
  • 00:32:29
    much about working with to try to figure
  • 00:32:30
    out where I lay in the marketplace
  • 00:32:33
    because if company a is willing to pay
  • 00:32:34
    me
  • 00:32:35
    $25,000 then Company B they're probably
  • 00:32:37
    going to be close in that range and I
  • 00:32:39
    never would have known that if I was too
  • 00:32:41
    scared to ask for that figure in the
  • 00:32:43
    first place and potentially be rejected
  • 00:32:44
    or potentially fail on that deal now
  • 00:32:48
    once you found that and you're like okay
  • 00:32:49
    this is my thing like this is what I'm
  • 00:32:51
    good at this is where I can actually
  • 00:32:52
    make a lot of money you need to
  • 00:32:53
    understand how do I do more of that
  • 00:32:55
    thing right so it's optimizing your your
  • 00:32:58
    time so now maybe you're hiring an
  • 00:32:59
    employee maybe you're getting a virtual
  • 00:33:01
    assistant in my case I have editors I
  • 00:33:03
    have agents I have people that work like
  • 00:33:05
    for my YouTube channel which is the main
  • 00:33:06
    thing that I run and why do I do that
  • 00:33:08
    because my time is better spent making
  • 00:33:10
    the videos than it is negotiating with
  • 00:33:12
    brands or it is editing videos or other
  • 00:33:15
    things along those lines so you start to
  • 00:33:17
    really optimize the systems and figure
  • 00:33:19
    out how do I do more of the thing that
  • 00:33:22
    I'm getting the most amount of value
  • 00:33:23
    from and why can't I do 10x 20x 30X 40x
  • 00:33:27
    that thing once you figure that out you
  • 00:33:28
    can build the volume and you can start
  • 00:33:30
    to actually scale now at the same time
  • 00:33:32
    you also then have to ask yourself you
  • 00:33:34
    know where is the balance here do I want
  • 00:33:35
    to keep doing this do I even want to
  • 00:33:37
    scale and the nice thing with an
  • 00:33:38
    entrepreneur is that you have control
  • 00:33:40
    and you can just make 100 200k a year if
  • 00:33:42
    you get to that point I don't really
  • 00:33:43
    need much more than that I'm happy just
  • 00:33:45
    doing this hanging out working 20 hours
  • 00:33:47
    per week and that's the greatest benefit
  • 00:33:49
    of going down this path now there's a
  • 00:33:51
    lot more I could talk about here and I
  • 00:33:53
    realized this is a little bit of a rant
  • 00:33:54
    video wasn't super structured but I
  • 00:33:57
    wanted to just kind of eject in you the
  • 00:33:59
    different ways you think about things
  • 00:34:01
    right A lot of people think about a
  • 00:34:03
    skill as simply a salary they can make
  • 00:34:05
    per year or an amount of money they can
  • 00:34:07
    make per hour it's the wrong way to
  • 00:34:09
    think about things when you go into that
  • 00:34:11
    entrepreneurial route again I keep
  • 00:34:14
    repeating it you just have to figure out
  • 00:34:16
    what value do you provide and where can
  • 00:34:18
    you provide the most you can then tap
  • 00:34:20
    into that and take it out two people can
  • 00:34:23
    have the exact same skill set and
  • 00:34:24
    provide vastly different amounts of
  • 00:34:26
    value based on on the type of tasks
  • 00:34:28
    they're actually completing with that
  • 00:34:30
    skill set and that's what you need to
  • 00:34:32
    think about so that's going to wrap up
  • 00:34:33
    video three let's move on to video 4 so
  • 00:34:36
    let's get into video 4 we talk a bit
  • 00:34:37
    more strategically here about thinking
  • 00:34:40
    longterm now this has many different
  • 00:34:42
    meetings but generally speaking I want
  • 00:34:44
    to make sure that any of the activities
  • 00:34:45
    I'm sharing with you here or even just
  • 00:34:47
    your ability to make money with coding
  • 00:34:48
    doesn't die in a few years and that this
  • 00:34:50
    is something you can do sustainably over
  • 00:34:52
    a longer period of time because again
  • 00:34:54
    what's the point if we only can do this
  • 00:34:56
    for 2 3 4 years yes you can make some
  • 00:34:58
    quick money but for me I'm always about
  • 00:35:01
    building the skills building the
  • 00:35:03
    business building the ability to
  • 00:35:05
    generate wealth and not just doing it
  • 00:35:06
    over a very short period of time and
  • 00:35:08
    then dying out and having to find
  • 00:35:09
    something else this should be something
  • 00:35:11
    that's sustainable it should be
  • 00:35:12
    something long term at least that's the
  • 00:35:14
    way that I look at it you may look at it
  • 00:35:16
    differently but I'm going to share with
  • 00:35:17
    you here my perspective now when I say
  • 00:35:20
    thinking long term first of all that
  • 00:35:21
    means before we jump into trying to earn
  • 00:35:23
    as much money as possible we want to
  • 00:35:25
    build that foundational skill of coding
  • 00:35:28
    anyone who's going to make a lot of
  • 00:35:29
    money with this has to First be decent
  • 00:35:31
    at development you don't need to be an
  • 00:35:33
    expert but you need to be confident in
  • 00:35:35
    your abilities and I think confidence is
  • 00:35:37
    the key word there this is something
  • 00:35:39
    that exudes pretty much everyone that
  • 00:35:40
    you talk to and something that really
  • 00:35:42
    affects you internally whether you
  • 00:35:43
    realize it or not you've probably had
  • 00:35:45
    this before you walked into a job
  • 00:35:47
    interview applying for a position where
  • 00:35:48
    you're not qualified even though you
  • 00:35:50
    might be able to fake it a little bit
  • 00:35:52
    generally people can tell when you're
  • 00:35:54
    confident in what you're doing and not
  • 00:35:56
    and even the way you speak the way you
  • 00:35:57
    answer questions the way you think about
  • 00:35:59
    things uh internally yourself
  • 00:36:00
    subconsciously are affected by the fact
  • 00:36:02
    you know that you're not actually
  • 00:36:03
    qualified for that role now same goes in
  • 00:36:06
    reverse you go into an interview you
  • 00:36:07
    know you're overqualified you know
  • 00:36:08
    you're going to kill this job you know
  • 00:36:10
    that this is like exactly what you're
  • 00:36:11
    meant to do you're going to really exude
  • 00:36:13
    that confidence is going to be very
  • 00:36:15
    obvious to everyone in the room and you
  • 00:36:16
    yourself are going to speak in a
  • 00:36:18
    different way carry yourself in a
  • 00:36:19
    different way because you actually know
  • 00:36:21
    that you can do the thing and even if no
  • 00:36:23
    one else knows that just you knowing it
  • 00:36:25
    yourself uh really makes a huge
  • 00:36:27
    difference found that personally in
  • 00:36:28
    myself quite a bit when I started
  • 00:36:30
    program when I started posting YouTube
  • 00:36:32
    videos I wasn't that confident I didn't
  • 00:36:34
    have the accomplishments or the
  • 00:36:36
    achievements to actually say hey like
  • 00:36:38
    I'm a great developer and it took me a
  • 00:36:40
    fair amount of time to build that up to
  • 00:36:42
    the point where I could speak more
  • 00:36:43
    confidently right I could come across
  • 00:36:45
    like I actually know what I'm talking
  • 00:36:46
    about because I did and I was confident
  • 00:36:48
    in myself so please first build that
  • 00:36:50
    skill and it's going to help you in
  • 00:36:52
    pretty much every area of life and
  • 00:36:54
    business so let's say we've done that we
  • 00:36:55
    have the confidence what's next well
  • 00:36:57
    this three main things I want to talk
  • 00:36:58
    about in this video and that's being a
  • 00:37:00
    professional reputation and reliability
  • 00:37:03
    um and we'll talk about a few other
  • 00:37:04
    small things as well now let's start
  • 00:37:06
    with being a professional no matter what
  • 00:37:08
    area of business you're in no matter
  • 00:37:09
    what you do you want to be as
  • 00:37:12
    professional as you possibly can now
  • 00:37:14
    what that means is even simple things
  • 00:37:15
    like using proper punctuation and
  • 00:37:17
    grammar having an email signature
  • 00:37:20
    answering on time being fast to reply
  • 00:37:23
    showing up on time and being reliable I
  • 00:37:26
    mean these things all kind of tie into
  • 00:37:27
    with each other everyone wants to work
  • 00:37:30
    with someone who's professional right
  • 00:37:32
    being a professional just shows that you
  • 00:37:34
    actually know what you're doing you've
  • 00:37:36
    done this before and that you can
  • 00:37:38
    actually deliver on whatever it is that
  • 00:37:39
    you're promising now I'll give you some
  • 00:37:41
    specific examples here because this is
  • 00:37:43
    really applicable especially in the
  • 00:37:44
    YouTube space which is where I obviously
  • 00:37:46
    make a lot of money now on YouTube you
  • 00:37:49
    have let's just be blunt here a lot of
  • 00:37:50
    kids right and you have a lot of people
  • 00:37:52
    who are like vloggers or entertainers or
  • 00:37:54
    they don't actually have any real skill
  • 00:37:56
    set they just like have bunch of
  • 00:37:57
    followers and they do silly goofy stuff
  • 00:37:59
    online now with a few exceptions many of
  • 00:38:01
    these people do not know what it's like
  • 00:38:03
    to run a business they don't know what
  • 00:38:04
    it's like to be professional they don't
  • 00:38:05
    know what it's like to even work in any
  • 00:38:07
    kind of corporate world they're in a
  • 00:38:08
    place where like you have to maybe put a
  • 00:38:10
    dress shirt on or you have to speak in a
  • 00:38:12
    certain way or there's manners or um you
  • 00:38:15
    know formalities or whatever and you
  • 00:38:16
    guys can say what you want about that
  • 00:38:17
    but the truth is there's so many people
  • 00:38:19
    especially in this content space that
  • 00:38:21
    are like a nightmare to work with right
  • 00:38:22
    for example maybe you'll sign a deal
  • 00:38:23
    with them and they just don't respond to
  • 00:38:25
    you right they won't reply to you they
  • 00:38:26
    won't show up for a call maybe it takes
  • 00:38:28
    them 3 weeks to cancel on you maybe they
  • 00:38:30
    don't deliver maybe they're late uh
  • 00:38:32
    maybe on even on the brand side maybe
  • 00:38:34
    you pay really late or you don't hold up
  • 00:38:36
    the deal with the Creator or whatever
  • 00:38:37
    ends up happening right there's just so
  • 00:38:39
    many examples of
  • 00:38:40
    unprofessionalism when that happens
  • 00:38:42
    obviously that ruins your reputation and
  • 00:38:44
    it makes you undesirable to work with
  • 00:38:45
    even if you're able to contribute a lot
  • 00:38:47
    of value so you want to no matter what
  • 00:38:50
    you do be a professional in that space
  • 00:38:53
    and I guarantee you it's going to help
  • 00:38:54
    you in so many ways that you won't even
  • 00:38:56
    realize and you're just going to be
  • 00:38:57
    someone who's desirable to work with I
  • 00:39:00
    get a lot of repeat deals I get a lot of
  • 00:39:02
    repeat customers and clients and one of
  • 00:39:04
    the main comments I get is that my
  • 00:39:05
    operation is tight things are organized
  • 00:39:08
    we're controlled we reply to people I'm
  • 00:39:10
    easy to work with I answer really
  • 00:39:11
    quickly I'm diligent I make sure that if
  • 00:39:13
    there's any mistakes or issues they get
  • 00:39:15
    resolved immediately that's what it's
  • 00:39:16
    like being a professional and you want
  • 00:39:18
    to be that in whatever field you are so
  • 00:39:21
    just really keep that in mind now
  • 00:39:23
    obviously being a professional is going
  • 00:39:24
    to help with your reputation right you
  • 00:39:26
    want to be someone who no so when I say
  • 00:39:28
    reputation that means maybe you do
  • 00:39:31
    things right now that don't make you any
  • 00:39:33
    money but that build you a really really
  • 00:39:35
    good reputation that could be even in
  • 00:39:38
    outside of the scope of coding maybe you
  • 00:39:40
    do some volunteer work or maybe you're
  • 00:39:42
    really into this specific cause you help
  • 00:39:44
    out with this thing maybe you post
  • 00:39:45
    completely free videos online like I did
  • 00:39:48
    for many many years building your
  • 00:39:50
    credibility and building your reputation
  • 00:39:52
    and then eventually later on starting to
  • 00:39:54
    monetize that and starting to cash out
  • 00:39:56
    on that reput that you've built there's
  • 00:39:58
    a lot of things you can do that in the
  • 00:40:00
    short term don't seem like they're
  • 00:40:02
    really doing anything for you but what
  • 00:40:03
    you are building again is that
  • 00:40:05
    professionalism that reputation and the
  • 00:40:07
    fact that you're reliable and if you can
  • 00:40:09
    build your presence especially online
  • 00:40:11
    things like social media even medium
  • 00:40:12
    post maybe you're a contributor to an
  • 00:40:14
    open source project that's going to help
  • 00:40:16
    you in more ways that you can imagine
  • 00:40:17
    it's really difficult to actually put a
  • 00:40:20
    dollar figure or a value on those
  • 00:40:22
    contributions so that's what I'm kind of
  • 00:40:23
    talking about in this video there's a
  • 00:40:25
    lot of strategic things you can do that
  • 00:40:26
    early on don't immediately give you that
  • 00:40:29
    reward that longterm are really going to
  • 00:40:31
    help you and build who you are as a
  • 00:40:34
    person right build your brand build your
  • 00:40:35
    company whatever it ends up being now
  • 00:40:37
    obviously being reliable I think this
  • 00:40:39
    one is pretty simple you need to be
  • 00:40:41
    someone that other people can count on
  • 00:40:43
    they can rely on they have to know that
  • 00:40:44
    if they give you a task there's no
  • 00:40:46
    question there's no reason why you would
  • 00:40:48
    ever not complete that and this is a
  • 00:40:51
    complement I used to get all the time
  • 00:40:52
    even when I was younger that people
  • 00:40:54
    could just give me something and they
  • 00:40:55
    just knew it was going to get done they
  • 00:40:56
    knew it would be you don't have to worry
  • 00:40:58
    about it I'm sure many of you have been
  • 00:41:00
    in situations maybe like a group project
  • 00:41:01
    where you just know that the teammates
  • 00:41:03
    are not reliable like you can tell them
  • 00:41:05
    to do something you can check in with
  • 00:41:06
    them every single day you can do
  • 00:41:07
    whatever you want and you're almost
  • 00:41:09
    certain it's just not going to get done
  • 00:41:11
    or that you have to take it into your
  • 00:41:12
    own hands because you can't rely on the
  • 00:41:14
    fact that it's going to be finished no
  • 00:41:15
    one wants an unreliable partner no one
  • 00:41:17
    wants an unreliable wife no one wants an
  • 00:41:19
    unreliable client to work with so you
  • 00:41:21
    need to be reliable and you need to get
  • 00:41:23
    stuff done uh even if that means
  • 00:41:25
    sacrificing right because that builds
  • 00:41:26
    your re reputation so that's kind of
  • 00:41:28
    what I'm talking about in this video and
  • 00:41:30
    those are a few ideas to make you think
  • 00:41:32
    a little bit more longterm you don't
  • 00:41:34
    want to just take quick money do things
  • 00:41:37
    fast you don't want to scam people you
  • 00:41:38
    don't want to do things poorly sometimes
  • 00:41:40
    it might take you five hours longer than
  • 00:41:42
    you thought to complete this project you
  • 00:41:43
    could just submit it and get paid right
  • 00:41:45
    now but instead you're going to put in
  • 00:41:47
    that extra work to build that reputation
  • 00:41:49
    so this guy knows hey he's willing to
  • 00:41:50
    put in the extra mile I'm going to come
  • 00:41:52
    back I'm going to refer him I'm going to
  • 00:41:53
    use him again so just kind of a general
  • 00:41:55
    video here and really actually Target
  • 00:41:57
    targeted towards a lot of you that are a
  • 00:41:58
    bit younger or maybe just getting
  • 00:42:00
    started even if you're only 15 16 17
  • 00:42:03
    years old be a professional use proper
  • 00:42:06
    grammar be on time be reliable this is
  • 00:42:09
    going to really set you apart especially
  • 00:42:11
    at a young age and there's people that
  • 00:42:13
    are 30 40 years old that'll be taking
  • 00:42:14
    notes from you if you really take this
  • 00:42:16
    advice and actually adhere to it anyways
  • 00:42:18
    guys I'm going to wrap that up here and
  • 00:42:19
    that's actually going to finish this
  • 00:42:21
    course I know this was short I know it's
  • 00:42:23
    not necessarily a stepbystep guide there
  • 00:42:26
    is just so many opportunities there's so
  • 00:42:28
    many ways to make money and as I said my
  • 00:42:30
    goal for you is to get the wheels
  • 00:42:31
    spinning get you thinking about
  • 00:42:33
    different things and share with you a
  • 00:42:34
    few perspectives of mine and some
  • 00:42:36
    experiences so you can start thinking
  • 00:42:38
    okay what is my strategy going to be how
  • 00:42:40
    do I actually want to make money do I
  • 00:42:41
    want to just go work a job do I want to
  • 00:42:43
    do freelancing do I want to try these
  • 00:42:44
    different Avenues and hopefully after
  • 00:42:46
    this course you guys are going to go and
  • 00:42:48
    try at least one of those things that I
  • 00:42:50
    mentioned and you're going to share with
  • 00:42:51
    us in the community how that went for
  • 00:42:53
    you whether you failed or whether you
  • 00:42:54
    succeeded I would love to hear that we
  • 00:42:56
