Most people think you need a huge audience or thousands of views before you can make money on YouTube. Thatās not true.
Hereās the secret: YouTube is the worldās 2nd biggest search engine. Every day billions of people type in things like ābest AI writing tool for beginnersā or āJasper vs Copy.aiā.
If your video gives them the answer theyāre looking for, you can earn money right away with affiliate products.
Hereās the simple game plan:
- Pick who you want to help (beginners, small business owners, van lifers, whoever).
- Pick 1ā2 affiliate products that solve real problems for those people.
- Make relevant videos around what theyāre already searching for:
- In each video, tell people where they can get the product (your affiliate link).
Why this works:
- You donāt need sponsors.
- You donāt need the YouTube Partner Program.
- You donāt even need a big audience. One person searching, finding your video, and clicking your link = commission.
Next step: Think of one tool you use (or want to promote). Now write down 3 beginner questions someone might type into YouTube about it. Thatās your first three videos.
