In this video, we’re going to go through a simple process as to how you can grow any side hustle. And it doesn’t matter what your side hustle is, it doesn’t matter what it does. This video will demonstrate to you how you can think about developing your side hustle and growing it and how to grow it. One of the first things you’re going to do at the very beginning, and this is even before you even choose what your side hustle is going to be, you need to start that documentation process as soon as you choose one.
And you want to chronicle that entire process. You want to talk about what went into your decision, you want to talk about what it is that you finally chose. And whatever route that you choose to go, you want to make sure that your decision making process is clearly outlined. Because as you think about things, you want to make sure that you’re capturing in some kind of print or in some kind of diary, some kind of, some kind of archive, exactly what your emotions were, exactly what your thought process is.
You can very easily do this by talking into something like a chatbot these days. You can pick a conversation and you can dictate each day into something like ChatGPT. If you don’t want to do something like that, you typically have some kind of note taking application and, and just every day dictate into it, you want to do it stream of consciousness. You don’t want to make it a belabored process because you won’t do it.
I would still make sure that I document whatever I did in writing. And so even if you are going to be verbal in what it is you put together, make sure that at least you put together an outline that’s going to be written. And when you refer back to what it is that you did on a particular day, you’d be able to read the fine points, you’d be able to read the summary points as to what it is you accomplished and why you did it.
And so whenever you start thinking about what you’re going to do as a side hustle, let’s assume that for the sake of this video, that what you have chosen to do is you’ve chosen to blog and you’re going to try to generate an income blogging, then you want to make sure that you chronicle everything that you did. How did you choose your domain name? How did you go about setting up your website?
Where, what topic did you choose? When did you write your first blog post? Document every single thing, so don’t leave out anything, so chronicle each Step of the process. Now, this is going to be a little tedious because you kind of feel like, well, I should really focus on the actual action. But make sure that you’re documenting everything. Now, there are a couple of reasons why you want to document everything.
One of those reasons is that whenever you want to have someone help you, if you’re going to have someone help you, one of the ways that you can grow and scale is you can actually have somebody to do something for you that knows your process. And it’s going to be a lot easier for you to teach them your process if you’ve been documenting it from the very beginning.
You can do this with some kind of secret blog. Blogger.com, you can make your blog private. Really doesn’t matter. Now, I know that I use blogging as our example, but what I’m saying is, when you chronically step in the process, what you’re going to be doing is you’re going to have someplace where the public can’t see see where you’re going to keep a record of what you’re doing on a daily basis.
You could also just build the whole thing in public so everything you’re doing you can share with an audience. Sometimes those are going to be great ways of being able to build YouTube channels. And people are very much liking. People really like it when you outline what it is that you’re doing. And so build it in public. And in some cases, some people build their entire channel just based on who.
Who they are and how they interact with the audience that comes along with them. Now, one thing that may not necessarily seem like a big deal, you want to take screenshots while you’re doing this, and everything that you’re doing on your personal computer, take a screenshot. If what you’re doing actually happens in the physical world, make sure you document it with a photo. And again, it’s going to seem a little weird.
However, this is what you’re going to be using here. At the end of the entire process, make sure everything is timestamped. So even if you take a screenshot, you take a picture or you take an image with your mobile device, make sure that it’s dated. Make sure it’s some kind of way you know it’s going to be timestamped and don’t change that timestamp, because again, we want to be able to chronicle everything.
We want to know exactly what our emotions are. We’re. Our thought process is we want to know everything that’s happening in this particular element. Now Again, for the sake of example, we’ve said that let’s say we are going to start a blog for income. Now that’s different from me saying that you need to do a secret blog. So if you get a secret blog, you’re basically going to be doing something where the public will not see your post.
You’re just using it to document and you’re making it easier. And again, Blogger has something that will make it easy for you. At the point at which you begin to create income, take your documentation to the next level. Document when the first dollar comes in. Document how much profit you’re making. Document as you grow your income. Document where your customers are coming from. Document every single thing. Now some of this is going to be easy because you’re going to have a sales system that does a lot of this for you.
Now if your sales system captures all that information, you don’t have to do that, right? You don’t have to write about all your, your profitable ventures. Your sales system is going to tell the whole story. Now, if you’re using more than one sales system, it might be a little difficult, but you want to document all the income that you generate and that you are generating. We’re talking about the side hustle that we’re doing.
When the time is right, take that documentation and turn it into a step by step guide. In other words, you look back over all of your documentation and you take it and you say, okay, you know what, I’m going to show somebody exactly how to do what I did. And this is only at which the point at which you’re generating some kind of comfortable income, you know, whatever your goal is, you know, if Your goal was $500 a month, when you’re at that point, you’re then ready to begin taking your documentation and turning it into a guide so other people can use it to learn what it is that you know.
And naturally, once we get the guide completed, we’re going to sell it. We can sell it in places like Warrior plus or JVZoo, where people are interested in making money and making money online. You’re going to sell that guide and you can also record your steps if you have taken screenshots or images. You also want to record a video course that’s going to be used as an upsell to the guide when people buy it.
Now what you basically have is an information product. And it’s an information product that will show someone how you gain success. So you don’t want to do it while you’re in the process. So if you are not in the process, you’re not at the point at which you’re actually doing something toward the goal, or your goal is not clear, or you haven’t really quite made it. That’s not the point at which you create an information product.
Kind of information product that we’re talking about basically says to someone, if I did it, you can too. Here’s something I did, here’s something I set out to do. And now if you want to do it, I’m going to show you exactly how I did it. And, you know, you don’t have to promise people that they’re going to be able to do it, because you have no idea what someone else is going to do in terms of the work they’re going to put in.
However, what you can do is you can share with them exactly what you did. And that’s the idea behind this. We want to share people exactly what we did. And this is really how we’re going to grow our side hustle. We’re going to develop an information product aspect of our business. And so we’re going to teach people what we’re doing. We going to teach people what it is that they can learn from what it is our journey is.
And that information product is going to be basically sellable to people who want to make money and typically who want to make money online. Right. These are going to be business opportunity seekers. So you may or may not necessarily turn this into a book. It’ll be a New York Times bestseller. Everybody’s going to love it. I mean, that’s a route to go. However, if you create an information product, you can bring that information product with proof that you’ve actually done it.
And you should have plenty of proof. If you have done the steps that we’ve been talking about, you will then be able to take that information product and sell it to others. You can get recruit affiliates to recruit affiliates who have a list of people who make money online. They will be willing to send an email about your course, and then in exchange for a sales commission, they will bring you new customers and another way.
And let’s say that people are just not interested in learning how to make money in the way that you’re teaching them. Another way to go at this, and you don’t want to do this at first because it’s quite a bit of work to do it this way. You can then sell resell rights to information marketers. So in other words, what your customer is different. The customer is not looking to learn from you.
The customer is looking to take what you have as a tool and use it in their business. So you can sell resell rights to information marketers who want to have a solid product to sell, and they want to take your product. They either want to add it to theirs or they want to sell it their own. Sell them the rights to do that. You sell it as a resell rights product.
All of these are things that you can do to grow any side hustle. Basically, what you’re going to be doing is you’re going to be doing your business on the one hand. Secondly, you’re going to be chronicling your business and you’re going to be sharing with people what you’re doing to get success. And you can share people in ways that they will be interested in purchasing that information product that.
