And readers started pouring in...

Step 2: Put yourself out there
The great thing about the internet is it costs $0 to build an audience.
All you have to do is put yourself out there!
Case in point: YouTube start KevJumba
This lil& #39; Asian kid started by posting silly videos of himself dancing on Youtube...

This lil& #39; Asian kid started by posting silly videos of himself dancing on Youtube...
Over time he amassed over 2 million subscribers and now he makes a full time living creating movies!
He& #39;s killing it now but he wouldn& #39;t be where he is today if he hadn& #39;t put himself out there years ago.
Lesson: The sooner you start, the faster you& #39;ll grow

Step 3: Choose your medium

> Life
> E-com
> Family
AFTER I built an audience, making money become an afterthought...

Step 4: Retain your audience
After you start building your audience you& #39;ve got to retain them with an Email List.
The best way to do this is to offer them a free gift in exchange for their email.
In my case that& #39;s a 6 day mini-course on E-commerce.

Let& #39;s wrap up with a case study
Case study: How to make 4k w/out a product
Arree is a student from my e-commerce course.
He& #39;s also an artist who illustrates children& #39;s books.
Most people think artists don& #39;t make any real money and that& #39;s because they don& #39;t value their own skills.

Most people think artists don& #39;t make any real money and that& #39;s because they don& #39;t value their own skills.
In Arrees case...
He had a unique skill (his ability to illustrate) and willing students (his email list)
One day Arree decided to give an online tutorial on how to create a children& #39;s picture book from scratch.
He simply emailed his list of <100 and gave a 1hr webinar.
The Results?

His presentation was so compelling that his audience were willing to pay him up front for something he hadn& #39;t built yet...
