Hey BHW!





Since i'm only 16, and school is closed right now, I have spare time and lots of it. You guessed it. This lead to me wanting to make money! I use to work but I quit one of my jobs pot washing to pursue studies and to ready myself for the final exams (which aren't taking place now lol!), and my paper round is off due to the shop being ran by elderly volunteers who are very vulnerable, but it may be opening soon! So yeah, I want to make money. For my age, I have a good amount in savings due to working from the age of 14 (when i was 15 I had 3 jobs at once)My eye is on drop shipping (I know it's quite generic and commonly frowned upon, but I love the business model and everything about it!). I have more than enough capital to start now, but I'm no where near enough educated on the topic to start throwing hundreds into it. I definitely have a passion for internet marketing, and I look up to some of the big players on the forum, with the likes of @BassTrackerBoats , @proxygo - too many to mention! While I learn more about drop shipping, I would like to have a few side hustles (that may evolve into a full hustle along aside dropshipping when i start!)



So, I took some time to identify my skills: I have good writing skills and a good vocabulary, this makes me want to venture into copy writing, as i've done exceptional in any English exams before, and I use to write scripts for Top Ten YouTube channels! I love graphic design and i'm okay at it, but have no software. I would LOVE to delve into affiliate marketing, it is very intriguing to me. And I also feel SEO would be a good skill to learn to complement my internet marketing journey!
Pretty much any form of internet marketing would be en experience to me !



After listing my skills and passions, i'm unsure where to start and what skill to utilise in order to create an income. I feel copywriting may be a suitable option for me, but I am also very intrigued in Affiliate marketing and SEO/blogging and the hosting side of the Internet marketing field interests me too!



Basically what i'm trying to say is, would anyone be able to suggest / help me with an opportunity or some sort of direction to create an income while I learn about my main venture.

Any comments are highly appreciated, and I will value every sentence written.



Kindest Regards,

Young Internet Marketing Fanatic - JoeMMO ;) .

wise words. I'm guilty of doing this. ill let you get to bed now though man thanks ;)
 
If you actually enjoy writing I would go with copywriting. You can make bank if you get good. I suppose that's the case with everything, though. That's just me personally as I wouldn't want to keep up with SEO and I feel like you'll need the paid ad skills (or SEO skills) to crush affiliate marketing since you need to learn how to drive large amounts of traffic. Just my $0.02 and I'm only talking about a near-term income source while you learn more about drop shipping since you could get work for copywriting starting asap.

Also, there are some great threads and course giveaways on fbook ads you should check out!

If you do it, make sure you upload a profile picture and fill out your profile make it look nice. Also post the full amount of gigs youre allowed. The more gigs, the more chamces customers find you and buy something.

And you can just let them sit from then on. You can also promote the gigs on social media etc. You can also buy reviews, at least for the one or two gigs you would like to push

I'm gonna do this. I might do a giveaway of a free writing piece on here, and learn the different types of copywriting, etc, and then get started!

The health niche is hard, but converts well because you're often solving a painful problem.

Other than that, don't sleep on the hobby niches :)
