Show Notes
We discuss strategies that range from digital products and subscriptions to freelancing, affiliate marketing, and even selling physical products, providing practical insights for every stage of your creative journey.
- Digital products: By creating items like e-books, courses, or digital art, you can reach a global audience and generate passive income. Once produced, these products can be sold repeatedly with minimal effort.
- Subscription models: Platforms like Patreon and Substack allow you to offer exclusive content in exchange for recurring payments. Subscriptions provide consistent revenue and help build a dedicated community around your work.
- Freelancing: Offering your services as a designer, writer, or consultant is a flexible way to monetize your skills. Freelancing can be a great source of income, whether you’re starting out or looking for more client-based work.
- Affiliate marketing: Earn by recommending products and services you already use and love. Whether through blog posts, videos, or social media, affiliate marketing allows you to make money by sharing your expertise.
- Physical products: Selling branded merchandise or handmade items helps build a stronger connection with your audience. Although it requires more upfront effort, physical products can complement your digital offerings.
