The ONLY way anyone can make predictable money online (and on Twitter):

I’ve gotten more than 50 DMs…
All asking me one thing:

“How do I make money?”

And instead of answering privately.. I decided to share this with everyone:

>>> A Thread 🧵 <<<

Let me be brutally honest.
There are MANY ways you could go about.

But there’s only ONE way if you’re just starting out and want PREDICTABLE money.

And there’s no going around it.
It’s non-negotiable.

Here’s the ONE way:
Learn a high-income skill.

Let me explain why:

You could do surveys.
Or affiliate marketing.
Or a million other things.

But they’re not predictable.
Not consistent.
And honestly?

Not a lot of money.

That’s just the truth.
And you know it better than me if you’ve tried it yourself…

So now there’s only one question…

Which high-income skill?

There are many to choose from:
• Sales
• Design
• Code
• Copywriting
• PPC
• SEO

And probably dozens I’ve missed.

But I can help you choose.
There is one CRUCIAL filter to have in mind when choosing.

And it’s the answer to this question:

“Which skill is measurable?”

Because if the skill is not measurable? You will have A HARD time getting clients.

Here’s why:

When starting out you have one good option to get clients:

Results-based work.

But if you can’t measure results? That option flies out of the window…

Did that help?

Let me give you another filter to go through. And it’s the answer to this:

HOW are you gonna get clients?

There are only two ways to close clients.

Face-to-face (call or meeting).
Writing (selling with DMs or a sales page).

That is all.
So…

This narrows it down even more.

We are left with one of two high-income skills:

1. Sales
2. Copywriting

But there’s one more filter. And it’s the answer to this question:

Which skill will help you build a community to sell to?

And the answer to this is tricky:

You can use both skills. But…

Sales will help you to build an audience on YouTube more than on Twitter.

Simply because the medium is talking.

Copywriting will help you to build an audience on Twitter. No talking - only writing.

And that’s why my suggestion is this:

Go with copywriting if you want to stay on Twitter.

Now…
You could choose ANY other skill. But understand this:

If you choose web design?
You’ll still have to learn another skill to build a community and close.

Either copy or sales.

So essentially…

You’ll be forced to learn two high-income skills.

Now…

Eventually? You’ll want to master more than one high-income skill.

But start with one.
This is THE ONLY way to make good money online.

And you have to accept this truth in order to move forward.

Also…

There is one BUT.
A big one…

The ONLY reason not to go with copywriting in my eyes is this:

If you feel like you have a natural drive or connection to another high-income skill.

If you love designing - you should do that.

Don’t force yourself to go only with logic.

Now…

I understand I’m pushing copywriting hard. I’m biased.

I’m a copywriter after all :)

So I would love to hear other opinions.
