How to become a passive income badass

(And create digital assets that earn while you sleep)

A dead-simple guide to get you started:
Let's address the 800lb gorilla first...

Everything that I'm going to talk about here takes work to:

• Build
• Refine
• Maintain

Nothing is purely "set it and forget it"

But this is about building leveraged systems that split time from income.

Let's begin...
1. Determine your "Intersection of Income"

It's not enough to "write what you love"

You must write at the intersection of:

• Your expertise
• What's popular
• What's profitable

Use tools like quora and answerthepublic to find what's popular.

2. Study the patterns of others

Create a list of 5-10 accounts you aspire to.

Study their:

• Publishing cadence
• Content structures
• Topic buckets
• Networks

Anything and everything they're doing (that's working for them).

3. Build an effective bio

Your bio should tell your potential audience:

• WHAT you write
• WHO you write for
• WHY the should care

And use your featured section to showcase:

• Credible expertise
• Social proof
• Your offer

Nail the first impression.

4. Generate traffic

Digital income streams rely on traffic. Full stop.

Use:

• Posts
• Articles
• Threads
• Carousels

Anything you can to (shamelessly) promote your expertise.

5. Redirect the traffic

The money is in the list.

Use:

• CTAs
• Opt-ins
• Auto-plugs

To create an ecosystem that gets your audience off the platform.

And onto your list.

6. Fish for problems

Your audience will tell you their:

• Pains
• Struggles
• Obstacles

But only if you ask them.

Use a welcome email that prompts your new subscriber to share why they joined and what they're working on.

7. Construct your offer and landing page

Create the offer first.

To nail a bulletproof offer write out:

• The problems
• Your solutions
• Why it's urgent
• Why it's different

This will help you build the product.

8. Create a content queue

We don't want to work on this every day.

Here's your blueprint:

• Map out a few hours a week
• Use tools like Hypefury to build a queue
• Create as much content in advance as possible

Focus less on content and more on your business.

9. Automate everything

Now, every time you:

• Publish a piece of content
• You include a relevant opt-in
• That prompts an offer via email

This puts your offer right in front of the right person.

Every time.

Booyah.

This 35,000ft view gives you the foundation of each step:

Those steps are:

• Craft a targeted profile
• Find your intersection
• Build landing page
• Study the experts
• Fish for problems
• Create a queue
• Redirect traffic
• Drive traffic
• Automate
Happy building ✌️
