Simple (and Free) Passive Income Blueprint

 I'll skip the intro.

Here's a simple passive income system that you can create 100% for free, and start building immediately.

The system require you to create 3 assets.  If you focus on these, you can find all of the information you need to make them happen.

Asset 1: A consistent, meaningful online presence.

What does that entail?

An online presence: Have a place online where people can come and see something you've put there.  The important part is that it's yours.  You'll have opportunity to make it as big and as awesome as you want it to be, but the important part is creating it and using it.  You can do that today.

Meaningful: After someone visit's your online space, they should be clear on what they got from the visit, and what they will get if they come back.  They are free to take it or leave it, but it's clear what they are taking or leaving.  This is often referred to as "choosing you niche."

Consistent: Regularly add content to your online space.  If there is frequently a reason to return, then your engagement will grow naturally, as will your recognition by "the algorithms".

This can start today, on whatever platform you're most comfortable, even by reposting something you think is meaningful for your audience.

Go ahead.  Make a post. Then keep doing so at least once a week.

Asset 2: A free offer.

Create something that your audience would like to have that you're willing to give away for the sake of your business.

This can be very simple if it aligns with your content.  If your posts focus on information, then collect some good info into a pdf.  Do a deep dive.  Explain a specific topic in detail.  Make a template of your craft.  Make a special video and make it private access.  Give a collection of recommendations for something you've curated.  

It doesn't have to be perfect, and it can always change.  And your offers will become better as you interact with your audience.

Oh, and something to note, if you're fine with spending a little money and want a faster or easier path, there are low cost options for getting something made for you.  

Keep posting on your platform.  At least once a week.

Asset 3: Create an email list.

This comes naturally after 1 and 2 with the proper setup.  Simply make your free offer available via email.  There are tools that you can setup that will let anyone from your audience click a link, enter an e-mail, and receive your offer, all automatically.  And in doing so, you have earned their e-mail.

Keep posting.  At least once a week.

Congratulations! You've just learned how to build an online business.  This plan is what I call a Passive Income MVP (Minimum Viable Product).

How do you make money?

The simplest way is affiliate offers.  These can be added with every post you make (at least once a week) and with each email you send (as often as you send them).  There are many other ways to monetize your platform that we'll describe in future articles.

In fact, everything mentioned has a lot options, strategies, ways to grow, and mindsets that relate to it, which is why there is SO MUCH information about how to make money online.  But doing it for free, without a lot of complication, and in a way that fits into a busy schedule, was something I had to figure out myself.  And I'm giving it to you, and I hope you take action.

Keep coming back to the blog to keep learning tips and tools to make this work.

Cheers to your journey!
