Comment ‘brand’ for the full breakdown. Most people don’t have an income problem. They have a leverage problem. I could’ve spent my money on better tools, a newer van and become a better carpenter. But no matter how good I got, I was still selling my time. So I made a different decision. I invested into learning how to sell online, build an audience and turn a personal brand into income. That decision changed my life. I’ve just uploaded the full, non-bullshit breakdown of how I’d approach making money online now. DM me “RICH” and I’ll send you the YouTube video.

How I made half a million in 18 months

Transcript

I had two parts. It was either I buy my tools, I buy a good van and I try and level up as a carpenter. But I'm cap, there's no way I can excel. There's no way I can break out of that cycle if I was to stay as a carpenter. So I knew what I wanted. I've got a plan. This is this is the life I want to live. This is how I'm going to get there. I need to learn my skills, I need to start my own online business. It could be how to make money, it could be how to get in shape, how to boost the countertop, right? How to play the guitar. There is people selling anything these days. comes down to your personal brand, right? You cannot make money with information with a face shop account. It doesn't work anymore. You have to be posting content and this is why documentation is so fucking important, right? When I first started to learn sales, I was filming myself in my bedroom talking about the things I'm learning talking about the things I'm failing at. And people really leaned into that because I was being genuine. They they wanted to see that if I could actually make it work, because I spent so long doing that to the point where actually started making money, these people were following me, they already trusted me, they see me building in in in in public and failing that when I had something to sell, they snapped it up, right? I started making 20, 30, 40s a month as soon as I launched my first info product.
