Trevor Berke is the fast-talking hype machine behind Automation Edition 2.0, where he sells a two thousand dollar course teaching his so-called Money Leverage System. So what is it? Credit repair. I know, kind of a letdown, right? And look, I can’t really fault him for taking something old and boring and making it seem new and exciting. That’s honestly just good marketing. But then he goes way too far with how fast and easy and automatic he makes it sound.
Anton Kraly’s Dropship Lifestyle course teaches you how to drop ship classy, high-ticket products from domestic suppliers. It’s not cheap. The Premium package costs thirty-five hundred bucks. Ultimate, which comes with six months of private mentoring and done-for-you content marketing, costs ten grand. And Unlimited, which comes with lifetime mentoring and a full year of done-for-you content marketing, costs twenty-five grand. Yikes. Is anybody making that back?
Affiliate marketing is where you promote someone else’s product for a commission. Because you get to skip like ninety-five percent of the steps required to build your own business, it’s attractive to almost everyone. It’s fast and easy to start and you can do so with almost no money. Once you’re up, running, and profiting, nobody’s bugging you, which is nice. Depending on your traffic source, it can even be pretty passive. What’s not to like, right? But that’s also the problem. I’ll explain below.
Publishing Life is a brand by twin brothers Christian and Rasmus Mikkelsen, who created their dream life thanks to Amazon publishing. Their digital marketing journey began back in 2016. After being beach bums for a few years post-high school, and smoking a little too much of the ole devil’s lettuce, they ran outta money and had to move back in with their parents in New Jersey. They knew they needed to turn their life around, so they enrolled in a local community college.
Sophie Howard started a new podcast slash info product business called Aspiring Entrepreneurs. As the name implies, this project is all about showing you what it really takes to become a successful entrepreneur. It’s about finding out who you are, your strengths and weaknesses and preferences, and then picking the perfect business model for you. In fact, Sophie recommends you take an archetype quiz to figure out the type of entrepreneur you’re meant to be.
FBA Masterclass founder Tom Wang says it’s complicated. In fact, he took some time away from his post-concussion rehab (apparently, he had a rough fall while shredding that gnar-gnar, brah) to record a YouTube video on this very subject. “The number one question I get asked by a lot of beginners is: Is Amazon FBA dead?” Tom says. “And what they’re really asking themselves is: Is Amazon FBA still a good business opportunity? Or am I too late? Is it saturated?”
Jeff Lerner thinks the world is a freaking joke. The system has sold hundreds of millions of people on this basic set of options, almost none of which lead us to happiness or fulfillment. “And frankly, that’s why I have a business,” Jeff rants. “And, in less than three years, I have two hundred thousand students saying, ‘Hey, school failed me, my job failed me, the retirement system’s failed me, the banks are failing me, whatever path I got on that they told me to do, I’m not happy.'”
Another awful YouTube ad from one of the Mikkelsen twins? Yep, this time it’s Christian, who wants to know if I’m curious how he made $2,317.16 from Audible, Inc. this month, without lifting a finger. No, but I bet he’s gonna tell me. “I literally did not spend a second of time, a penny of my money, or a single thought to make this money,” he brags. “And I know that 30 days from now, I’m gonna get another check of similar size. And then a month after that, I’ll get it again.”
After consulting several Amazon FBA millionaires, I was shocked to find out what it really costs to get started here in 2023. Please, allow me to summarize. First, you got your Amazon Seller Central fee: what Amazon charges you, right outta the gate, for the privilege of selling on their platform. That’s thirty-nine dollars and ninety-nine cents per month, even if you don’t sell a single product. Next, you’ll need some product samples. Plan on about two hundred and fifty bucks, minimum.
Graham Stephan, Meet Kevin, SSSniperWolf, and a bazillion other YouTubers are millions of subscribers ahead of you. Is it too late to launch your own YouTube channel here in 2023? I mean, if you look around in your niche, no matter how obscure it is, there’s already countless creators; and most of them make really great content, right? So how would you ever catch them? Then, again, if you could, there’s millions of dollars waiting for you, isn’t there?
Should you become a big-ticket phone closer? Eight figure sales trainer Cole Gordon sure thinks so. It’s how he made his first ten grand online, and he grew it to forty K a month not long after. Even if your long-term goal is to have your own business, he’d recommend starting with phone sales. It’s faster and less risky and it’s a skill you can make money with for life. Granted, Cole’s biased since he’s trying to get you to buy his Remote Closing Academy course, right?
Jordan Welch is a successful Shopify drop shipper. If he was a complete beginner and had to start all over today, from scratch, here’s what he’d do. It’s the exact process he used to launch a new store, just a few short months ago, that’s already profiting about fifteen hundred bucks a day. There are four main pillars. Your product, your store, your marketing, and then how you run your business and ship out your orders. Read on for Jordan’s full dropshipping for beginners guide.
Subto specialist Pace Morby doesn’t think so. But you will need to do a few things different here in 2023. “The first thing that comes to mind is contracts,” Pace said when he sat down with Jerry, from Flipping Mastery TV. “People need to make sure they have the proper contracts. And this comes up all the time. People don’t know where to get ’em or they’re using one that’s outdated. I update mine all the time. After each transaction, you learn something new, you call your attorney, and you tweak it.”
Mikkelsen twins Christian and Rasmus sell a course called Audiobook Income Academy, or AIA for short. It costs two Gs. Or you can break it up into three monthly installments of eight hundred bucks. But that’s just the price to learn the business, right? Now, if you’re actually gonna do it, if you’re gonna have audiobooks created and maybe turn ’em into ebooks and paperback books and try to sell them on Amazon and Audible and whatnot, you’re gonna need quite a bit more money. How much? Read on.
Jason Wojo went from college dropout to running a seven figure social media marketing agency by the time he was twenty-four. His net worth is three million dollars at the time of writing this. He’s been featured in Entrepreneur, made some 30 Under 30 list, drives cool cars (like a McLaren 570s), and wants to run your ads. Should you let him? And how much will it cost? And is this guy even legit? Scroll down and keep reading for my Jason Runs Ads review.
