Ads are great. I've been using them for almost a year. Biggest issue? Especially with Facebook ads? Bot traffic. Here's how I'm dealing with bot traffic to this Skool group (see screenshot). See the high-tech screening question I'm using? Broccoli is my favorite fruit, too. How many of you are running ads, or plan on running them soon? Ads to what? Services, products? Let's hear it.

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?

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.

Anyone using a tool or software for your business you truly consider indispensable? Doesn't have to be revolutionary or bleeding-edge AI tech, just something you'd be lost without. Let's hear 'em...

One of the toughest things about making courses is deciding which format to put them in. Some people hate videos. Some people hate reading. Some people like both, and want a transcript of the video... So in a not-so-sneaky way to conduct marker research... How do YOU prefer to learn stuff?
