I decided to publisj my quick method to make emergency cash here on the DP forum. Yesterday while going through the posts here I saw something that went link this: " I have been trying for 2 months to make money online but still made less than a $ in adsense" That wasn't the exact post but it was like that. Almost daily I see posts similar to this. I have written this short case study to show you have it is possible to make money within 24 hours from scratch. You don't need to spend hours on it, or have your own product. Here is how I made $126 in 24 hours. I am not telling you you will become a millionaire with this method but its something any newbie can do and can use it to build a solid business model with. I have noticed recently there are many people looking for video creation services and whiteboard videos seem to be a craze. Everyone seems to want them for their squeeze and sales pages. I started searching for a software so I could create these videos myself and came across Sparkol. Sparkol let me make a simple whiteboard video easily without having to draw or animate. Infact even a kid could use this software. I downloaded it and went through the free version and tutorials. I found I could create videos real fast around 15 minutes per 2 minute video. So I decided I would launch a service on the Warrior Forum to sell these videos for $17 per video. I purchased the full version of the software which cost me around $20 and created some demo videos for my service launch. I quickly put together a simple sales page for the forum and posted the service in the Warriors For Hire section. It cost me $20 to set up the thread but you could easily host this on a free blogger site if you didn't have any money to invest and wait until you get some orders before buying the software. I pasted the link to my new service in my Warrior Forum signature and posted a few posts as normal. The results were 8 sales in 24 hours 8 x $17 is $136 in 24 hours. It took me less than a few hours to set up and can easily be built up by posting more and bumping the thread. The most important part is to take action though. You have to work a little to get the results. This is so important
Hey that is a really good idea. I am going to check that Sparkol software out. Would be able to make some money making videos for other people, and would be a perfect tool to have handy for when I am promoting my own products.
Yes its a great tool! Its very simple and effective to use. Most people don't know its actually so easy to create these videos Would be good for offline clients too such as coaches or even TV adverts
Finally someone who can make use of possibilites hidden everywhere around us It's nice to read such a topic, not another "how to earn x per day quickly no cost no effort" topic Good job!
Thanks Kenzo for your positive feedback I hope I can offer more advice to the forum. I am here to help and learn also
I wonder if something like that can be done by using craigslist instead. Or maybe DP. I know some folks have a prejudice against WF. I read things about it on this forum that made me want to cringe. @Fit Marketer has your experience, apart from the sales, been good with WF so far?
Yes sure it would work on craigslist and DP. I haven't personally tried it so I couldn't tell you. There is a good market of people ready to buy these kind of services and other internet marketing services on WF thats why I chose there. I think there is also a great market here for selling those services. Craigslist I think it more depends on where you are based. Craigslist in my country is just full of spam! Hope this helps
You are welcome. I hope this gives others the motivation to get started and take action. Thats the most important thing
Could you update us these days on how well is your idea doing in sales after that first day? it would be interesting to see I guess this will be saturated pretty fast as people discover that software, but as someone said props for your idea and taking action. And thanks for this topic. It is inspirational both as guide for other people on what can they do to make money and also as a motivational story to get us going in this IM business.
Hey, The most important part of this is the taking action part. I am not saying go out and do the exact same thing or yes it will get over saturated. There are plenty of other services you could use to do something similar. How about content creation with a twist? Sales page copywriting? Graphics? Logos etc Its about being creative and adding something that others are not. Make your service stand out and give it something unique. Hope this helps
great thinking. those words should be like inspirational quote on top of every internet marketing forum really I would like this post million times, but I don't yet have option to like because I myself don't have enough likes, but as soon I get them, you are getting sooo liked
This is in fact really great idea! I heard of it in other places as well! You can get even more exposure and profit if you place your gig on seoclerks and fiverr for example!
Yes definatly. Thats a way to boost up sales by listing on Fiverr and SEOclerks. Just be sure you can easily complete the job and quickly as you won't make much profit on Fiverr so be sure its worth it.
In the most cases I saw additional offers on gigs I bought on Fiverr going up to 20-30$! Maybe this is the point where you can expect more profit from Fiverr!
Yes! Once you can start offering these services then Fiverr gets interesting. But from my experience you need to sell a few gigs first before you can offer additional services
