If you're looking for a simple, no-fluff way to flip a few bucks into a few hundred fast - and you're not afraid to get your hands a little dirty - this one's for you.
Here's the exact method, step-by-step. This is straight from the trenches:
If all I had was $50, and I had to make money quickly, this is what I would do…
- Open Google maps and search some high end services like CPA, real estate, auto detailer, etc
- Find the one who has the ugliest website.
- Open the Replit app and give it this prompt:
Build me a 1 page website. I want the navigation menu at the top to say home, about, reviews, services, contact. When the user clicks those menu items it scrolls them down to that section. Use HTML, CSS, and JS for this build. Pull in the reviews from this Google maps profile [link] and also pull information for the about, services, and contact section from their old website here [link]. For the contact section add a Google maps profile from their Google map profile and add their contact information but no contact form.
- After you pick up your jaw in shock of how good the landing page it built is, make a 2 minute loom video showing off the website.
- Email the owner of the horrible website you just rebuilt, and send them the loom video link. Don’t say a price yet, just say, let me know if you want it.
- They’ll ask you how much, and that’s when you mention the price. If you suck at negotiating, just say “pay me whatever you think it’s worth.” But if you’re not actually a sissy, try to get $500. That’s a great deal, $250 ain’t bad either. Even if you only get $100, you’ll be making about $100/hr for the work you did.
Why this works:
- You're solving a clear pain point (ugly websites repel clients).
- You show proof of your value before asking for money (Loom video = irresistible).
- You're leveraging AI & automation to cut 90% of the grunt work.
- Upsell opportunity: hosting, maintenance, SEO, etc.
Any questions?
