**Who this path is for** People who understand AI tools (ChatGPT, Midjourney, n8n, Zapier, etc.) and want to sell AI-powered services to businesses. **What problem it solves** Businesses want AI leverage but don't know how to implement it. You bridge the gap by offering AI-powered solutions. **How money is made** You sell AI-enhanced services. Examples: • AI-powered content creation: $500–$2,000/month • Workflow automation setup: $1,000–$5,000 per project • AI chatbot implementation: $2,000–$10,000 • AI-powered market research or data analysis: $500–$3,000 per project Revenue = (number of clients) × (project or retainer fee) **What you need to start** • Comfort with AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, n8n, Zapier, Make, etc.). • Ability to solve business problems using AI. • Portfolio or proof of concept (even personal projects). • LinkedIn or portfolio site. • 5–10 hours/week to start. **What 30–90 days of progress looks like** • 0–30 days: Build 3–5 AI use case examples, document results, post on LinkedIn. • 31–60 days: Reach out to 50–100 businesses offering free audits or pilots. • 61–90 days: Land first 1–3 paying clients, refine service offering. **Reality check** AI is trendy, but most businesses don't know what they need. You'll spend time educating before selling. If you can't explain technical concepts simply or lack patience for non-technical clients—this will frustrate you. But if you can bridge that gap, demand is high and competition is still low.

**Who this path is for** People who are natural connectors, facilitators, or curators—those who enjoy bringing people together and creating value through relationships. **What problem it solves** People are isolated, lack accountability, and want to be around like-minded individuals. You create the space and structure. **How money is made** You monetize access, relationships, or facilitation. Examples: • Paid membership community: $50–$200/month • Mastermind groups: $500–$5,000/month • Event hosting (workshops, retreats): $100–$2,000 per ticket • Sponsorships or partnerships Revenue = (number of members) × (monthly fee) or (number of tickets) × (ticket price) **What you need to start** • Ability to facilitate conversations and create value. • A niche or audience you already have access to. • Platform (Skool, Circle, WhatsApp, Discord, or in-person). • 5–10 hours/week to manage and engage. **What 30–90 days of progress looks like** • 0–30 days: Define the community purpose, invite first 20–50 members (free or low-cost). • 31–60 days: Facilitate conversations, create value, gather feedback. • 61–90 days: Introduce paid tier or premium access, convert first 10–20 paying members. **Reality check** Communities die fast if you don't consistently show up. You'll feel like you're running a daycare—managing drama, answering questions, and keeping engagement up. Most communities fail because the creator gets bored or burns out. If you're not naturally social or hate repetition—this will drain you.

**Who this path is for** People comfortable with hands-on work or managing people who do the work — and who want a simple, direct business that serves their local area. **What problem it solves** Locals need reliable, professional help with everyday services — cleaning, lawn care, tutoring, basic tech setup, etc. Most providers are inconsistent. You become the "finally, someone reliable" option. **How money is made** You charge per job, per visit, or on recurring plans. Examples: • Residential cleaning: $100–$300 per job, 10–50 clients/month • Lawn care: $50–$150 per visit, recurring weekly/bi-weekly • Tutoring: $50–$100/hour, 10–20 hours/week Revenue = (number of clients) × (average transaction value) × (frequency) **What you need to start** • A service people already pay for. • Basic tools/equipment. • A way for customers to find and trust you (Google Business Profile, simple site, social proof). • Willingness to do unglamorous work and manage logistics. **What 30–90 days of progress looks like** • 0–30 days: Decide your service, set up basic presence, talk to 30–50 locals. • 31–60 days: Land first recurring customers, build simple scheduling and reminder system. • 61–90 days: Start hiring help or contractors, standardise how the work is done. **Reality check** This can be one of the most straightforward ways to build solid income, but it is not "online laptop lifestyle." There will be cancellations, messy jobs, and operational stress. If you want pure laptop work only, this is not your path.

**Who this path is for** People who want to create once and sell many times—courses, templates, guides, tools, or resources. **What problem it solves** People want solutions but can't afford (or don't need) one-on-one help. You package your knowledge into a self-serve product. **How money is made** You create a digital product and sell it repeatedly. Examples: • Notion templates: $20–$200 • Online courses: $100–$2,000 • Canva template packs: $10–$50 • Business playbooks: $50–$500 Revenue = (number of sales) × (product price) Example: 100 sales/month × $100 product = $10,000/month **What you need to start** • Expertise in something people want to learn or use • Ability to package knowledge clearly (videos, PDFs, templates) • Basic tech skills (Google Docs, Canva, Notion, Gumroad) • Marketing channel (social media, email list, or organic traffic) • 10–20 hours to create the product **What progress in 30–90 days looks like** • Days 1–30: Create MVP version of product, set up sales page, price it • Days 31–60: Promote to warm audience, make first 5–20 sales • Days 61–90: Refine based on feedback, increase marketing efforts **Reality check (Hormozi-style)** Most digital products fail because creators build before validating demand. You'll spend weeks making something no one buys. Start by selling the idea first (pre-orders, deposits, or beta access). If no one bites, don't build it. Also, this path requires marketing—products don't sell themselves.

**Who this path is for** People who enjoy creating content (writing, video, podcasts) and want to attract clients or customers through organic visibility. **What problem it solves** Businesses and individuals struggle to find trustworthy experts. You build authority through content, and people come to you pre-sold. **How money is made** You create content consistently on platforms like Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, or TikTok. Your content attracts your ideal customer. You sell: - Coaching or consulting - Digital products (courses, templates, guides) - Services (done-for-you or done-with-you) Revenue = (audience size) × (conversion rate) × (average transaction value) Example: 10,000 followers → 2% conversion → $500 product = $100,000/year **What you need to start** - Willingness to show up publicly (face or voice) - Ability to create content 3–5 times/week - A clear niche and message - Basic content creation tools (phone + free editing apps like CapCut) - 5–10 hours/week to start **What 30–90 days of progress looks like** - 0–30 days: Post 30+ pieces of content, find your voice, test different formats - 31–60 days: Start getting DMs, comments, and engagement—respond to every one - 61–90 days: Convert first 1–3 customers from content audience **Reality check** Most people quit after 10 posts because they don't see results. Content takes 6–12 months to compound. You'll post to crickets for months. But if you stay consistent, this is one of the most scalable paths. If you can't handle rejection, invisibility, or long timelines—pick a different path.
