Passive Income Unlocked - The Long Road to Passive Income

Hello, and thanks so much for subscribing to the Passive Income Unlocked mailing list! I’m honored that you took the time to subscribe and can’t wait to share a ton of helpful tips to help you grow a successful niche site.

If you don’t know who I am, my name is Jeff, and I’m part of a small team that has now taken four sites each to over $10,000/month, all in less than four years. I don’t say that to brag; Instead, I want you to know what’s possible.

It may sound crazy, but about 4-5 years ago, I didn’t even know what display ads were or what affiliate marketing meant. Sure, I’d seen ads on websites and clicked links through to sites like Amazon, but it never even crossed my mind that people were making money off of these things.

At that time, I was neck-deep into a couple of other make-money-online ventures known as dropshipping and print on demand. Dropshipping felt more or less like a scam, and print on demand was slow-going, so I started to look for other options to try.

That’s when I stumbled upon blogging… for the second time. To back-track just a bit, my wife and I did start a couple of blogs a couple of years earlier, but we were even greener then than I was 4-5 years ago.

Anyways, when I got back into blogging, I went all in (which is something I tend to do a lot). I read every blog post I could find and watched just about every video out there about blogging and building niche sites on YouTube.

Still, that first blog got off to a rough start. After a year of late nights, writing posts on topics I knew nothing about, I had little to show for it. I still didn’t really know what I was doing.

Once the site started actually getting some traction, Google came in to take it away (more on this in the next email).

Slowly, but surely, I started figuring out what was working and what to avoid. Even though I’d spent all that time and effort trying to learn everything ahead of time, it was the hands-on experience that helped me to truly understand how this all works.

And that’s my goal with this newsletter. I want to teach you what I’ve learned over the past few years, so you can hit the ground running.

I’m going to share the strategies that we use, the mistakes that we’ve made, and anything else I can think of that will help you to build a successful niche site.

I’ll try to keep these emails relatively short and to the point. I’ll also do my best to not overwhelm you, so you might not see an email from me for a week or two at a time.

If you’re really itching to get started to learn as much as possible, head over to passiveincomeunlocked.com. You’ll see a new post from me there every Thursday.

If you’re more of a visual learner, check out our YouTube channel, where Ben and I share our tips and strategies. By the way, if you don’t know who Ben is, check out this video where we reveal one of our sites, one which he takes the lead on.

In the next email, I’m going to circle back around to what I mentioned earlier about Google knocking us off of our pedestal on that first site.

Until then…

Jeff
