Ugur YurukFounder of TheITIN $80,000 monthly revenue Published September 12, 2024 by Niall Doherty Ugur Yuruk is from Turkey

They help non-Americans set up businesses in the USA, complete with tax IDs, mailing addresses, bank accounts, payment processing, etc.
Ugur wrote in a recent interview…
Our customers are mostly first-time entrepreneurs that were born on the wrong side of the map… so they can not be part of the global marketplace, or tap into the US marketplace.
Ugur’s business has helped 3000+ such people in 150+ countries.
We’re a small global team of 11… My business brings about $35k a month in profit and $80k in revenue.
This gets me thinking

When You Want To Create a Product But Are Short on Ideas
Jacky tweets…
If you’re looking to create a product and are short on ideas, consider exploring existing products in the market. The following websites can help spark your inspiration:
microsaasidea.com
indiehackers.com/products
boringcashcow.com
openstartup.tm
Identify a product you believe could be improved and think about how to enhance it. Most importantly, you don’t always need to reinvent the wheel.
Once you have a preliminary idea, you can quickly develop a prototype or MVP to validate its real-world value.
Lastly, don’t rush the process. Sometimes, a good idea requires time to mature and evolve.
They Gave Him $13,000 When He Started This Business
Andrew CurtinFounder of Construction Wave $13,000 from one sponsorship Published September 12, 2024 by Niall Doherty Check out this basic-looking website: constructionwave.co.uk
They cover the 
UK construction industry and send out a daily newsletter.
Andrew Curtin started the business in 2022. He has a background in marketing and advertising, knew about the construction industry via his father.
Andrew talks about growing the business in a recent interview on YouTube …
His first revenue came from a cold call to a crane company right after he launched. They gave him a £10K sponsorship ($13K USD)…
I just think they felt sorry for me.
Nowadays they monetize with newsletter sponsors, sponsored webinars (£7-15K rev each) and an annual conference (£150K rev in 2023) 
Doesn’t sound like they’re super-profitable yet, but they’re growing nicely.
Think of this as building TechCrunch for a particular niche.
TechCrunch is a media company covering startups and tech, estimated $68M annual revenue.
Is there an industry you could become the TechCrunch of?

Former $30/Hour Virtual Assistant Now Earning $300/Hour
Kristi DaSilvaConsultant $300 per hour Published September 12, 2024 by Niall Doherty From a recent interview with Kristi DaSilva…
DaSilva Life helps small businesses build success by setting up and integrating two popular software tools, HoneyBook and ClickUp, into their workflow and operations.
Starting out, Kristi says…
I was just a virtual assistant. I did admin, content creation, systems, all the things.
Then she decided to specialize…
She became one of the first 12 HoneyBook Pros and joined a small group of ClickUp consultants.
The transition took a while.
Kristi found clients via personal connections and Facebook groups, and eventually…
she went from making $30-$40 an hour as a VA to charging $300 an hour for strategy sessions.
I reckon lots of people could do this: become a certified consultant of some big enterprise software you enjoy using

Bought it For $4000, Then Earned $20,000 in 8 Months
Mohd DanishOwner of Iconbuddy $2,500 average monthly revenue Published September 9, 2024 by Niall Doherty Iconbuddy is “a search engine that allows you to search, download, customize, and edit over 200,000 open source svg icons for free.”
Mohd Danish owns the business and recently tweeted…
Iconbuddy made $20k in last 8 months…
Iconbuddy was not my idea, it’s @fayazara and I acquire from him for $4k in cash last year…
At that time $0 revenue and No traffic but I liked the idea, so I just bought it.
Monetization…
In Jan 2024, I launched lifetime supporter plan to make unlimited search, icon manager, Figma plugins access for $49.
The price has since gone up to $89.
So Mohd bought a promising project with $0 revenue, then figured out a way to monetize
I suspect he discovered Iconbuddy via X, but you could also find opportunities like this on sites like…

$20,000 in 6 Months With No Marketing
Tibor BregmanWeb Designer $20,000 revenue Published September 9, 2024 by Fardeen KhanReviewed and edited by Niall Doherty Tibor Bregman from Amsterdam 
recently tweeted to his ~800 followers…
My @framer templates just made $20.000+ on @lmsqueezy in 6 months.
He started in March and…
6 months later and with only 2 templates released, I hit $20k in revenue.
Now here’s the best part: I haven’t even really started marketing my templates yet. I haven’t been building an audience, neither have I done any paid marketing.
Framer is a website builder that’s rising in popularity 
Tibor says his template sales have all come via Framer’s marketplace.
See his templates here
Reminds me of Samar Jamil, who recently earned $10K from Framer templates in 4 months.
Looks like it’s still early days in the Framer template game, so plenty of opportunity there
If you’re not into building templates, you could partner with someone who is and you handle the marketing side of things.

$68/Hour Via Airbnb (But Nobody Stayed At His Place)
KairoTour Guide $68 per hour Published September 9, 2024 by Niall Doherty Just found this YouTube video from 2021…
It’s by a guy named Kairo who tried making money via Airbnb Experiences 
He offered walking tours of London, did 40 of them, and earned $68 per hour…
$68 an hour to do some walking tours, have fun, meet new people, that’s fantastic.
Other types of experiences I see people offering on Airbnb
Heard about this via the 45-minute mark of a recent MFM podcast 
…
They say that this works best in big cities, where you have lots of people visiting and looking for fun things to do.
Could you give it a try in your city?

Try This For a $100K/Year Business
Moses Araujo tweeted this business idea
1. Pick a large niche (gyms, restaurants, etc.).
2. Create 5 website templates for it.
3. Reach out to potential clients.
4. Offer a website with no upfront fee.
5. Transfer their content or generate new with ChatGPT.
6. Charge $150/month for maintenance.
7. Secure 50 clients for a $100k/year business.
AJ Chadha replied with an idea for finding clients…
I’d scrape Angie’s list and reach out to those businesses. Seems like a great way to grow fast.
Or you could start this by offering it to places you go locally: your regular barber, gym, bakery, etc.

New Way To Make Money: Become an AI Actor
Check out this 19-second video on X 
See that woman talking in the video?
She’s AI generated 
Well, kind of.
She’s actually a real person who uploaded some 4K video of herself speaking, and gave permission for her likeness to be used in videos like that one.
So they can make her say whatever 
Within reason, of course.
Arcads is the company behind this. More examples on their site.
They link to a form from their homepage…
Become our AI ActorApparently they will pay you to do this, but the form doesn’t say how much
Still, if you’re interested you can sign up and see if they get back to you.
Could be an easy way to earn some extra
