How I Make an Extra Thousands Per Mo WITHOUT Publishing More Books

About this video

Sean argues you can make more from books you already have, instead of only publishing more, by collecting reader emails and selling them additional products — he frames this in the video as making an extra three to five thousand dollars a month. Step one is a lead magnet: a one-page call to action inside the book offering a free book, checklist, or PDF in exchange for an email. Step two is a simple opt-in page, which he says can be built in AWeber, Mailchimp, MailerLite, or another autoresponder, with no distractions beyond name, email, and signup. Step three is sending emails with offers — your own course or service, more books, or affiliate products if you have nothing of your own. He suggests creating a course on Kajabi or Teachable and selling it for a couple hundred bucks, using a book as a lead generator for an existing business, or finding relevant affiliate products by Googling your niche or topic plus affiliate programs, as with productivity products like Grammarly. He closes by claiming his own publishing business generated 35,000 a month consistently for the year 2021, which he teaches in his course.
