What has everyone been up to? Me? I pivoted from my lifestyle videos to my true passion, which istravel videos. I resurrected my travels with Kip YouTube channel. Instead of the typical travel videos, I now post shorts with a focus on helping people over 60 years of age understand how they can travel at any age. If you’re interested, go check out my YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/@travelswithkip The long form videos I have on there are old ones from six years ago. You can ignore them! Instead, click on Shorts from the menu and see my first five shorts. I am posting typically.on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. And referring back to Nick’s email from today, I’m still working on developing my style. I realize my voice in the first shorts is kind of monotone. So I’m working on bumping up the energy and I did better on my latest one. Let me know what you think! And thank you for your time. Have a great rest of the week! Kip

Yes...what can you teach? I'm stealing this idea from @John Bejakovic and his Skool community, Daily Email House. For one, because I'm lazy. Two, because it's a fantastic idea. The idea I posted inside John's original thread got the most traction out of dozens, even though I ALWAYS downplay how awesome of an idea it is: Building a list of customers with a lazy ad funnel. In the spirit of laziness, and to give credit where credit is due, here's John's post...not copy-pasted, but rewritten juuuuuust enough that I can claim it as my own: ### What can you teach? What's something you can put a presentation about for people inside Funny Money? WHY would you want to put on a presentation for us? Here are a few reasons: 1. You can float an idea here to see if there's any interest (and no one will make fun of you, or I'll ban them) 2. If there IS interest, you can get my feedback, input, and help into organizing your presentation, or even organizing it into a PRODUCT! 3. If you do give your presentation, you can use feedback from the group to polish and improve what you're teaching, so you can then turn it into a paid offer or lead magnet to grow your own audience. 4. You can get ready testimonials or even case studies from people here, without jumping headfirst into running an ad funnel from scratch. 5. If you do end up making a presentation...and it's awesome...and I think my email list would benefit from using your offer...I may promote it to them and share the profits with you. Again, a source of "free" customers to seed your fledgling business. 6. Maybe by teaching something valuable yourself, you encourage others inside Funny Money to teach something valuable as well, which ends up benefiting you and everyone else down the line. (and especially benefiting ME. Who wouldn't want that?) So...can you teach? Comment below with your ideas. Brain dump 5 things you could teach below, or just post a couple of your favorites. Even if they seem wild, bizarre, completely nuts...there are no wrong answers.

I've got a travel Instagram account with over 10,000 followers that I haven't posted on in years. If you had 30 days to squeeze a thousand bucks out of this very very dead account, how would you do it? Anyone who makes a legit suggestion that actually drives revenue, I'll send you $2,500 out of my first $10,000 in profit. For realsies.

Here’s what I’m looking for: 👉 You have at least one client. 👉 Your client runs ads OR sends emails to customers OR has some kind of social media following. All of the above? Fantastic. 👉 Your client isn’t a jerk. I have a proposal for you that could be the easiest 4 to 5 figure payday you’ve ever made in your life.

One super-easy source of "passive-ish" income I've ignored is one almost all of us can utilize: Becoming an affiliate for the tools and subscriptions you ALREADY use and therefore, probably endorse. I personally have an affiliate account set up for ThriveCart and BerserkerMail, yet I've never ONCE tried to sell these. Why? You probably pay for at least half a dozen SaaS products that offer affiliate programs. Yes, some of these products have "standards," like Canva's CANVASSADOR program (only accepts creators who regularly post Canva tutorials). But most of them don't. How to get started? Just search "my tool + affiliate" and get going. Applying usually takes a couple minutes. They'll provide you with a unique link. Best practices, you'd want to make a blog post, video, or some other piece of content AND offer something unique and valuable people can get ONLY if they use your link to sign up. For example, if I was actively promoting ThriveCart or BerserkerMail, what kind of bonuses could I make to entice buyers to use my affiliate link? Or, you could lazily post affiliate links scattered about the internet like this: 👉 Sign up for ThriveCart, the galaxy's BEST shopping cart software right here 👉 Sign up for BerserkerMail, the galaxy's BEST software for writing and sending emails Aaaaaannd listen to the money printer hum. This month, what's one affiliate program you could ENTHUSIASTICALLY jump into and start earning some passive dollars for the recommendations you're already making?
