A cheatsheet for making money, including crucial ideas 99% of people don't understand. If you're hungry to change your life this year, you will like this:
1. No matter how good your product is, your audience may not be able to afford it.
2. You’re probably doing your FB/IG Ad attribution wrong for sales, and it’s costing you money.
3. Gaming is bigger than most industries but no one believes it as it’s so uncool (lol)
4. Don't get dazzled by internet marketing bro's posting revenues, as most of their profits get evaporated by ads :) Ask for their net profit :)
5. There are no side hustles for (five figures a month) income - the competition is so fierce you have to be “in” it all day
6. The less you leave your desk (meetings, networking, real world) the more successful you’ll be (i.e. doing webinars instead of live talks, building an audience, etc)
7. All the best secrets you find out in private conversations, not on the public web
8. 2% of people own almost all bitcoin. 4% of people own all valuable NFT’s

9. If you’ve failed doing hard work (entrepreneurship), I’m telling you gambling (investing, surely?) in NFT’s and Crypto is not the answer…

11.Following up is the most valuable sales and relationship building tool possible!
12. For everyone who says a niche/platform is “dead”, someone else is making it work, e.g. People are still building massive Facebook pages!
13. Most people will never get a bigger opportunity to work without distractions then they did these past two years. And most people blew it.
14. Ego costs serious money, e.g….You blame other people when you just didn’t do the work
15. Music industry people are much less open to talk to new people & share knowledge than business people are
16. You can barely buy mentorship in the music industry. In business, it’s everywhere
17. In pure productivity terms, Americans (over)use of ADHD medications like Ritalin and Adderall is a major reason their top performers get so much done VS other countries.
18. Tiktok is not a great learning tool - They quickly drag you into hot girls, things that are viral, TV shows, whatever you like they will use against you, beware!
19. Short-form video + ads is the BEST account growth method there is (It's the only thing my agency offers, we love it)

Only cure is to start making more money so the loss becomes a smaller and smaller % of your net worth.
10. Cryptocurrency and bitcoin are just this generations’ gambling.
If the fun of placing the bet is worth the money go for it, anything more and it’s like playing online casino with other virgins.

I’ve heard over and over from top content creators like Tim Ferriss that “When you don’t know what to write about, write about what makes you angry” or “Every time I’ve written an article that i’m scared to post, it has always performed very well”.
