Intro
The video introduces the idea of making money from anywhere in the world using just a smartphone and highlights the numerous opportunities available today. It encourages viewers to take action instead of spending time on endless courses, emphasizing that making money from a phone is achievable by implementing at least one of the ten methods discussed.
Social Media Management
Many businesses struggle with social media, creating an opportunity for individuals to offer social media management services from their phones. Tools like Jasper AI for content creation, Opus Clip for repurposing content, Invido AI for video editing, and Later for scheduling and analytics can be utilized. While it requires effort in pitching and managing clients, the potential payout ranges from $1,500 to $5,000 monthly per client. Platforms are full of businesses looking for social media help.
Online Tutoring
Individuals can offer their skills as online tutors through mobile apps, assisting students or adults learning new subjects. Platforms like Preply, Tutor.com, Varsity Tutors, and italki allow tutors to get hired and teach various subjects. While these apps take a commission, they provide access to clients, flexible hours, and the ability to work from anywhere.
Content Creation
Brands require content for their social media channels, ads, and websites, creating opportunities for content creators. User-generated content (UGC) or faceless content can be created and edited on a phone using apps like CapCut, InShot or Templify. While gigs may be sporadic initially, this offers schedule flexibility and creative freedom.
E-Commerce Store
Building an e-commerce store has become easier with AI. Deepseek can identify trending products and assist with copywriting, while Sprocket or AliExpress can help find drop shipping products. The Shopify mobile app can be used to build and manage the online store, with Midjourney or Adobe Firefly used for graphics. Marketing the store and dealing with fulfillment are potential downsides, but using a supplier who handles shipping is recommended.
Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing involves promoting other people's products for a commission. Chat to PT can help find affiliate marketing programs, or individuals can directly reach out to brands. Becoming a creator on TikTok Shop or creating a niche website with affiliate discounts using the Shopify mobile app are effective strategies.
Freelancing
Offering freelance services, which can be done entirely from a phone, is another viable option. Services range from coaching and consulting to content creation, graphic design, social media management, and customer service. Platforms like Fiverr, Contra, Upwork, and Toptal can be used to find clients, and a strong portfolio is essential.
Website Development
Creating and selling custom websites to clients can be done from a phone using the Shopify mobile app. Freelance platforms can be used to find opportunities.
YouTube Content Creation
Earning passive income from YouTube without filming oneself is possible using AI tools. Tools like Invido AI, LTX Studio, Sora AI, and Whisk Animate can generate videos from text prompts. Posting consistently in a specific niche is crucial, and monetization can be applied for once the channel gains traction.
Utilizing Money-Making Apps
Various apps offer flexible side hustles, including Survey Junkie for paid surveys, Wag for pet sitting, Repocket for sharing internet, and cashback apps like Pogo, Fetch, or Recieptin. Selling items on eBay or Facebook Marketplace and reviewing books on Online Book Club are other options. Flipping free furniture found on Facebook Marketplace is also mentioned as a potentially lucrative activity.
Client Acquisition and Mindset
The video emphasizes that consistent action is necessary to attract clients, rather than relying on luck. Chat to PT can recommend platforms, and pitching oneself daily while showcasing the best work is essential. Connecting with potential agencies and clients on LinkedIn, while demonstrating genuine interest in their work, can lead to subcontracting opportunities. Combining multiple income streams is encouraged, and building a strong foundation through a portfolio, online presence, and proof of work is crucial for establishing trust.
