    How to Create a $2k+/mo Passive Income Website in 30 Days (or Less)

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Depends on the service, but it could be an option. What I did was offering a course solving a very specific problem of a niche I know well. You could try something similar with either a product or a service. The key is solving the problem effectively.

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Spot on. I have an example of this. Recently, I sold 5 online courses (on preorder) with an Instagram account with under 200 followers, with a set of stories that were seen by around 50 people. Then I created the course, gathered feedback, improved it, and I am now selling it via MetaAds...

    Amazing thread! So much value here, thanks for sharing @Lex DeVille ! Definitely worth the Gold status. Totally agree with the community building part. My last business was very dependent on it (one of the reasons it failed, actually) and I was usually feeling enslaved by "the algoritm"...

    Glad to hear it helped you! In life, the only think you can control is your attitude towards things. Even when the worst comes at you, attitude is a very powerful weapon. Focus on the good and the learnings from your failed business and keep persevering!

    Even so! Also, another crucial part is choosing your target customers. Not everybody is your customer and have the same situation.

    EXECUTION 
    It looks line an interesting topic, but it looks like some expertise is required to execute well on this. In my case, I prefer to look for opprotunnities in areas in which I have expertise. But thanks for the input anyway!

    EXECUTION 
    I agree, although, it is also important to focus on willingness to buy. There are many things people need but they still do not want to pay for them, (we humans are irrational creatures), or sometimes they don't even realize they actually need them.

    EXECUTION 
    That is a good point. In any case, within the range of products that people want to buy, in my case, I prefer to focus on need for this one instead of nice to have! But the focus on willingness to pay is certainly important!

    Many thanks for the reply! Yes, I have, in fact I hired an agency but they did not deliver (I was getting better results than them), and I kept looking but could not find anyone that convinced me. I was getting good ROAS (average 7) and I didn´t prioritize it. However, later I realized that...

    Good point! That is the key. If they are not willing to buy it, it does not matter if they need it!

    EXECUTION 
    I don't know. I have zero knowledge of that industry and I am not familiar with the problem, but, it seems it could be an example of a need.
