The simplest way to $2000/month online

(Without DM-ing people or selling your time)

The Tripwire Method:
2
The other day, I was invited to host a Twitter Space.

During the Space, I was asked, "What's the simplest way to monetize online."

I wanted to talk about digital monetization that didn't include:

• Cold pitches
• Awkward DMs
• Selling your time as a service
3
With that being the case, I talked a lot about the "tripwire" method.

This involves:

• Social platforms
• A constant stream of traffic
• A digital product that you can sell

And setting it up is quite simple.

Here's exactly how I would do it (for my first $2000 month)
4
1. Outline your brand

This is for people reading who are STEP 1.

They don't have a niche or a brand.

Use my "Creator Statement" resource to identify:

• WHAT your content is about
• WHO your content is for
• WHY they should care

And a DIFFERENTIATOR to set yourself apart.

2. Find relevant & popular topics

You must know what content your audience is interested in.

I recommend using Quora to find popular content topics:

• Search a specific topic
• Choose an interesting question
• Go and check the "question log" data

And find topic >300k views

3. Generate your own content to drive traffic

Use platforms like:

• Twitter
• Medium
• Linkedin

To attract attention and build your brand

(Traffic is the lifeblood of this strategy).

4. Track data and look for signal

Now that you're generating content & traffic, we need to see what resonates.

After 30-60 days, go back and view your:

• Impressions
• Engagement
• Questions/comments

To get a sense of what your audience wants.

5. Create your lead magnet

Most people's CTA goes something like,

"Join my newsletter!"

But we can incentivize someone more effectively with:

• An opt-in
• That solves a problem
• And that we offer for free

Use Canva & Convertkit slides to host your PDF:

6. Build an offer that expands upon your lead magnet

We have a "monetization" lead magnet.

What bigger problem can we solve here?

• A course to build a personal brand
• A consultation strategy call
• A full month of templates

Up the value ladder.

7. Initiate the "tripwire"

The tripwire - is pretty simple.

• You incentivize the opt-in with a lead magnet
• You redirect them to a paid offer page
• You pitch with bonuses/discounts

Here, we're using urgency & scarcity to motivate the sale.

It's an impulse purchase.

When you:

• Solve a real problem
• And provide a valuable solution

It's a win-win for everyone involved:

• The subscriber gets an exclusive deal
• You create an automated sales pitch

A low-stakes exchange for both parties involved because of the low-dollar pitch.
12
And that's it!

The simplest way to your first $2000/mo online

(without selling your time):

• Build a lead magnet
• Find popular topics
• Outline your brand
• Inititate tripwire
• Create content
• Build an offer
• Track data
