How to make money online: the 5 best ways in 2022

There is a question that many people are asking me behind the scenes of the blog: how to make money online?

The truth is that the question makes all the sense in the world, especially in a period as difficult as the current one, with an acute crisis in the labor market. The idea of earning extra money online couldn't be more attractive, right?

I am going to give you a serious answer, without false promises, to earn money online.

Before we start, let me clarify that everything you are going to see in this post is 100% legal: it is based on your work and the monetization of your abilities.

If you don't know how to do anything, you can't make money from scratch.

Learn to do something first, and then you can get paid for it.

As you can see, the fundamentals of work and economic remuneration have not changed.

So, if you are looking for a guaranteed, easy and immediate system, so that, without doing anything, you earn a lot of money passively, every month, I invite you to go and be cheated elsewhere.

Now that you are more aware of what you can expect from a serious online activity, I am going to introduce you to proven strategies that will make you money online.

Make money, really, without having to sell your soul to the devil.

Let's look at the top 5 ways to earn money:

1. SALE OF VIRTUAL SERVICES – FREELANCE (B2B)

The idea is to sell a "turnkey" service to a client, ideally a company or an entrepreneur.

The idea is to deliver the provision of the service 100% remotely, without ever visiting the client's office. We also want to limit the options very well to be able to present a fixed price and thus shorten the sales cycles with customers. This saves us the custom budget phase for each client and the negotiation of rates.

If you have digital skills (design, copywriting, writing, community management, SEO, advertising campaign management, sales closing, etc.) there are literally millions of companies and freelancers who need you today to digitize their activity.

2. SALE OF VIRTUAL SERVICES – INDIVIDUALS

It is a model similar to the previous case, except that in this case, you are addressing an individual.

We now live surrounded by experts and advisors who help us feel better and offer the world our best possible version: personal trainers, nutritionists, personal shoppers, therapists, life coaches.

Lifelong consulting has reached the consumer goods sector. And believe me, this trend is here to stay.

3. SALE OF VIRTUAL SERVICES – MENTORING

Many traditional 1-to-1 services can be digitized without major problems. We have been able to see online medical consultations have skyrocketed during the Coronavirus crisis.

It is not about having the same experience online as offline, but rather it is about providing enough digital value. And on the demand side, the perceived value for these digital services is increasing.

If we take it to a group model, it would be fantastic to be able to accompany small groups of clients, around a common transformation that you can lead.

Hence the idea of doing group consulting, or group coaching, for 2 to 3 months, and thus accompany a group of clients, instead of doing it individually.

4. SELLING AN ONLINE COURSE

It is a model that I know well because I have been practicing it for 10 years now. I started in July 2010 with an Affiliate Marketing course, followed by my first professional recording in November 2010, with The Casanova Diet, a misnamed training on selling online services. What a good time!

The idea is simple, you identify a specific and important problem for a target audience, and you solve it with an online course, cheaper than buying a turnkey service or individual support such as consulting or coaching.

It is a great business model because it is completely scalable since the support is group and 100% virtual.

5 . SELLING A DIGITAL PRODUCT

If you know how to design, program, or produce digitally (music, audio, videos, photos, etc.), you can create cheap digital products and sell them on specialized MarketPlaces.

There are large communities and ecosystems where you can locate your business: WooCommerce in the WooCommerce universe, Shopify, and in general all the most successful SaaS tools, offer their users marketplaces for selling plugins.
