How to never run out of profitable business ideas.

1⃣ Find Real Problems To Solve
2⃣ Connect With Your First Customers
3⃣ Make Money Faster

A THREAD πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡
Picking an idea is hard.

I've been there....

❗️ "My friend is making a lot of money doing X!"
❓ "What if I try launching Y?"
⁉️ "Will people even pay for Z?!"

Let me tell you a secret...

People will tell you exactly what idea to run with.

πŸ“You just need to find them πŸ“
First, let's agree on some basics 🀝

To build a successful business you need three things:

❌A Problem To Solve
βœ…A Valuable Solution
πŸ’°Customers Who Are Willing To Pay For It

I will walk you through all three in the next 90 seconds.
Let's start with the PROBLEM πŸ€•

People love to talk about their problems.

You just have to know where to look.

The two best places to find ideas:

πŸ’™ Twitter
❀️ Quora

Let's dive into the EXACT strategy for both.
Start with Twitter πŸ’™

Google "Twitter Advanced Search"

1⃣Add a list of industries, niches or topics you are interested in to the top search field.

2⃣Add HELP keywords to the second.

"Any Advice?"
"Please Help?"
"I'm Stuck"

Example Below πŸ‘‡
You will be handed an entire list of tweets that share problems people are experiencing.

The key?

πŸ”‘ Look for PATTERNS.

A lot of ecom people asking questions about email marketing? PERFECT.

That's a great place to start βœ…
The other tool I love is Quora ❀️

Why?

It's literally question based πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Search for an industry, idea or keyword.

Filter by "Questions" and "Past Week"

Like this πŸ‘‡
BOOM πŸ’£ it's literally that easy.

βœ…You found a problem to solve
πŸ’° You found people who will pay to solve it

The last step is the most fun....

πŸš€ Offering a VALUABLE SOLUTION
You have a bunch of options on how to make money.

My personal favorite?

πŸ’° Digital Products πŸ’°

Why?

I wrote this thread about it πŸ‘‡

But that's not the only way πŸ’Έ

You can write a book like @arvidkahl & @RandallKanna

You can affiliate for people like @blackhatwizardd and @wizofecom

You can build SAAS like @SaaSWiz & @SaaSCapo

You can sell services like @NickAbraham12 & @THETYFRANKEL

ENDLESS OPTIONS πŸš€
🌟 REMEMBER 🌟

People will tell you what they need.

It's just your job to find them.

Now go make some money. πŸ€˜πŸš€

The easiest way to launch profitable influencer campaigns.

A thread πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡
Influencer marketing is perfect when you are starting out.

Why?

βœ… Affordable CPA on Direct Sales
βœ… Social Proof + Brand Awareness
βœ… High Quality Content For Ads

I use this strategy to help brands make $25,000-$100,000 without running paid adsπŸš€
First, you need to FIND INFLUENCERS πŸ‘‹

Mid-tier influencers (10-100k) are best for a few reasons:

πŸ”₯ There are a lot of them
πŸ”₯ More engaged followers
πŸ”₯ More affordable deals
πŸ”₯ Easier receptive to new brands
πŸ”₯ Willing to let you use their content

You just need to find them.

The easiest way to make $9,000 every month.

A thread πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡
I used this strategy when I was just getting started in online business. I wanted to make enough to:

1. Live a comfortable life
2. Not have to work for somebody else.

$9,000/month can change your life πŸ™Œ Especially if you are looking to step into entrepreneurship full-time.
You are going to create and sell a high-value digital product.

Why a digital product? Why not SAAS or Ecom?

πŸš€ Faster To Build
πŸš€ Easier To Sell
πŸš€ Simpler To Operate
πŸš€ No Cost of Goods

This means you can go from making $0 to $9,000/month in 60 days or less.

The easiest way to send 7,500+ cold emails per day.

A thread πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡
I used this exact strategy to send 1.2m emails through GSuite in 11 days.

πŸš€ 150k Opt-ins
πŸš€ $34k Revenue
πŸš€ $22k MRR
πŸš€ $1,100 Cost

You probably don't need that scale (yet) but the core strategy is easy when you are just getting started.

Because it's all based in Google.
Why Google?

πŸ‘‰πŸ» Shared IPs mean no warm up time
πŸ‘‰πŸ» 99% Primary Inbox Deliverability to other Google accounts
πŸ‘‰πŸ» If your shared IP score drops they cycle in new ones
πŸ‘‰πŸ» Easy mass emailing plugins for GMail Accounts

Please note this is for GSuite accounts not personal Gmail accts.
