0:01 in this video I'll be sharing with you
0:04 what I find to be the easiest digital
0:06 side hustle for women over 40 and how
0:08 it's earning me
0:12 $487 or more every single month this is
0:13 great if you want to earn extra money on
0:16 top of your 9 to5 to better plan for
0:18 retirement or just to hit some other
0:20 goals you might have in mind so let's
0:22 dive in first let's talk about why
0:24 digital products are such an amazing
0:25 side hustle especially if you're a woman
0:28 over 40 digital products are products
0:31 like ebooks templates guides digital
0:33 courses and more that you can create
0:35 once and sell over and over again for
0:37 consistent passive income and of course
0:39 there's no inventory or shipping so this
0:41 really makes it one of the easiest
0:43 products to sell on average I'm bringing in
0:44 in
0:47 $487 per month just from one digital
0:49 product and overall from all of my
0:51 income streams from digital products I'm
0:55 making about 20 to $30,000 every single
0:56 month and that's from digital products
0:58 that I made with information that I
1:00 already had inside of my head so I
1:03 wasn't like I'm the absolute top tier
1:04 best expert at this thing I'm like you
1:07 know I know about 10% more than who I'm
1:09 going to teach and that's really about
1:10 all you need to know is you just need to
1:12 know 10% more than who you're teaching
1:14 you don't need to be the absolute best
1:17 copywriter in the world or to have won a
1:19 Guinness Book of World Records or
1:22 anything like that you just need to have
1:23 knowledge that you can share and I
1:25 personally believe that every single
1:27 person on this planet has that and of
1:29 course the best part about digital
1:31 products is it allows you to bring in
1:33 consistent passive income while having
1:35 the time to do what you want now of
1:36 course you're going to have to put in
1:37 work up front to actually create your
1:39 digital product and actually sell your
1:41 digital product but once you have that
1:43 Foundation built it really is such a
1:45 great consistent passive income stream
1:48 and this is exactly why I find this to
1:50 be one of the best digital side hustles
1:53 especially for women over 40 cuz I don't
1:55 know about you guys but mama's tired
1:57 okay I don't want to work 24/7 I don't
2:00 want to work three jobs I want to make a
2:02 digital product create it once and sell
2:04 it over and over and over again and have
2:06 time for things like horseback riding
2:08 and pottery and time with my friends and
2:10 family dinners and all of that great
2:12 stuff that makes life worth living and
2:14 if you want my entire in-depth process
2:16 and my free on demand training where I'm
2:18 going to teach you how to come up with
2:20 your digital product idea how to create
2:22 it how to launch it how to sell it
2:23 passively and I'm going to give you
2:26 details on my very affordable membership
2:28 then go in the first link in the
2:30 description below this video to watch
2:33 that training for free on demand now
2:34 okay so now that you know the digital
2:36 products are an awesome side hustle how
2:38 do you actually get people to buy your
2:40 digital product once you create it well
2:42 that's where YouTube comes in I have
2:44 been on just about every single social
2:47 media platform and for right now YouTube
2:48 is the absolute best I have been on
2:52 YouTube consistently since 2021 and for
2:54 good reason now I started selling
2:57 digital products in 2014 and back then
2:59 blogging and Pinterest was where it's at
3:01 okay okay now I recently did six full
3:03 months of blogging and Pinterest the
3:05 results are just not the same right now
3:07 the place to be is YouTube there is a
3:10 reason that I make all of my content on
3:12 YouTube my number one focus is YouTube I
3:15 am fully in on the YouTubes okay and I
3:17 highly recommend it for you as well
3:19 here's why YouTube is awesome I don't
3:22 know about you but okay I'm 37 I'm
3:25 almost 40 okay let's just say 40 right
3:26 here's the thing I don't want to be on
3:28 social media I don't want to be doing
3:31 these freaking Instagram stories okay
3:33 nobody cares what I ate nobody cares
3:34 what I did every single step of my day I
3:36 don't want to live my life through a
3:39 cell phone screen I just don't okay in
3:40 my early 20s I was like I want to be an
3:43 influencer I don't have that wish
3:45 anymore okay I love educating people I
3:47 love helping people I love helping women
3:49 earn more money all right rise up let's
3:52 go but I don't want to be on social
3:53 media every day I don't want to be an
3:55 influencer I don't need my ego stroked
3:58 on a daily basis by getting likes and
3:59 comments on Instagram I just don't okay
4:02 okay but that's why I love YouTube I'm
4:04 able to sit down right now and yesterday
4:06 and today I recorded eight videos and I
4:08 put out eight videos a month so all I
4:11 have to do is I record videos for two
4:13 days a month that's it and I have all of
4:16 my content for the entire month I'm able
4:18 to then send it to my editors then from
4:20 there they're going to edit it they're
4:21 going to upload it they're going to
4:24 schedule it so I don't have to be living
4:25 on social media I can literally just
4:27 spend two days a week sharing the
4:29 knowledge that's in my head helping
4:32 people for free on YouTube and not
4:34 having to be an influencer not having to
4:36 make my life be about social media and
4:37 if you can relate to that let me know in
4:39 the comments if you like being an
4:41 influencer no shade okay like genuinely
4:42 I know there's a lot of people that love
4:44 that I'm just not at that place in my
4:45 life where I want to be living through
4:48 my cell phone what I do now is if I have
4:49 a moment in my life that I want to
4:51 capture I'll just capture it and I'll
4:52 just keep it on my phone I don't post it
4:54 on social media but I'll upload it to a
4:56 folder that my team can then use to put
4:59 as b-roll in these YouTube videos so
5:00 that's a way that you can still capture
5:02 your everyday life and utilize it for
5:03 social media without feeling like you're
5:05 living on social media as well now
5:06 here's the other great part about
5:09 YouTube Not only is YouTube going to
5:11 help you sell your digital products okay
5:12 that's how I get all my traffic I don't
5:14 spend a dime on paid ads okay but you're
5:15 also going to be able to get paid
5:18 through the YouTube Partner program okay
5:20 so what that means is YouTube is going
5:22 to assign you an RPM that's Revenue per
5:25 melee or Revenue per 1,000 views on your
5:26 videos what this means is advertisers
5:29 will pay to place ads on your videos and
5:31 based on how much they're bidding to
5:32 place ads on your videos you're going to
5:35 get assigned an RPM okay again how much
5:37 they're willing to pay per 10,000 views
5:39 and then whatever money YouTube makes
5:41 from those advertisers they're going to
5:43 split it with you as the Creator so last
5:46 month I made just under
5:49 $3,000 okay just under $3,000 just from
5:51 uploading videos to YouTube I didn't
5:52 even have to sell anything I just made
5:55 free helpful content so not only am I
5:56 making money from digital products but
5:59 now I'm making money from AdSense also
6:00 and on top on top of that you can also
6:02 do brand deals now you don't have to but
6:04 Brands will reach out to you as you grow
6:05 your channel and they'll pay you
6:09 anywhere from 1,000 to 20,000 plus for
6:11 like a 60 to 90 minute segment on your
6:13 video depending on the size of your
6:15 audience and the engagement so YouTube
6:17 is so worth your time I get that you're
6:19 probably thinking oh it's so much work I
6:20 got to come up with topics and write
6:22 scripts and film videos and yeah it is
6:24 hard if it wasn't hard every single
6:26 person would be on YouTube and be a
6:28 millionaire and you know it just be
6:30 they'd be done done IND dusted right but
6:32 yes it is hard but guess what being
6:35 broke is hard posting every day on
6:37 Instagram reals is hard posting every
6:39 day on Instagram stories is hard posting
6:41 every day on Twitter or Facebook or
6:43 whatever it's all hard so you got to
6:44 choose your hard and here's the thing
6:46 they might all be hard but YouTube
6:47 actually works it's going to be worth
6:50 your effort it works for driving traffic
6:52 to your digital products and it also
6:54 works for making other income streams as
6:56 you grow your channel as well so I hope
6:57 I've sold you on YouTube I just
6:59 genuinely am that much of a believer in
7:02 it it has completely changed my business
7:04 the only thing I would change is I know
7:05 this is cheesy but I just wish I would
7:07 have started sooner and here's the thing
7:09 you don't have to look at my videos and
7:11 go I need to be like Molly on day one
7:13 don't even try because I couldn't be
7:16 like my videos now from day one go back
7:18 and look at my first video I just put up
7:20 my webcam I push record I just talked
7:21 for like 20 minutes and I uploaded it
7:24 it's horrible it's absolutely horrible
7:25 but if I wouldn't have uploaded that
7:27 then I would have never had a channel so
7:30 go look at my first video and say this
7:32 progress over Perfection just try to get
7:34 a video up talking to your cell phone
7:36 talking to your webcam whatever you have
7:38 now is perfect and just get it done and
7:40 take that first step and upload that
7:42 video and know that yeah it's probably
7:44 going to be bad it's probably going to
7:45 be bad and who cares at least you're
7:47 doing better than the millions of people
7:49 that have never even uploaded one video
7:51 to YouTube so you got this you can do
7:53 this and it will be so so worth it I
7:55 promise okay now the next way you're
7:57 going to be able to make money with a
7:58 side hustle with digital products is by
8:00 growing an email list now I know this
8:02 can seem daunting so I'm going to break
8:03 it down for you and show you that it
8:05 really doesn't need to be as complicated
8:07 as it can be obviously you can go super
8:09 complicated if you want to but bottom
8:10 line is this you're going to need a
8:13 software now I use system.io this is for
8:15 all my email marketing my sales Pages my
8:16 check out Pages my digital product
8:18 hosting literally everything to run my
8:19 business and the cool thing is they have
8:22 a free tier that you can get using my
8:24 link in the description below this video
8:25 it's not even a free trial it's
8:28 literally a free tier like a free plan
8:30 that you can get the software for it
8:31 allows you to have like a website a
8:33 funnel everything you need to start
8:35 making sales which is super cool cuz
8:37 it's free and I use system.io I love it
8:40 and that's also why I promote it because
8:41 I believe in it and I think who wouldn't
8:43 want to start for free right then that
8:45 way once you start making sales if you
8:46 want to upgrade you can do it from there
8:48 which is really cool so once you have
8:50 the software to grow your email list
8:51 with you want to create what's called a
8:54 freebie now this is simply going to be a
8:56 digital product that's free it's not
8:57 going to be long in fact I'd recommend
9:00 it to be a done for you tool so it could
9:02 be a script it could be a template it
9:04 could be a checklist okay whatever it is
9:06 it should be short sweet to the point
9:09 and as done for you as possible meaning
9:11 they shouldn't have to read a 100 page
9:13 ebook to learn how to be a dog walker
9:15 first of all that would probably be more
9:16 of a paid digital product you want the
9:19 freebie to be like a taste like a very
9:22 small quick win that they can get before
9:23 purchasing your big result that you're
9:26 going to get them so for me I have tons
9:27 of freebies in the description below
9:28 this video you can check them out to
9:30 kind of see like what a freebie is how
9:32 it works all that cool stuff but one of
9:34 my freebies as an example it's simply a
9:36 list of 54 different types of digital
9:38 products and it's really that simple but
9:39 what's cool is it helps people they're
9:41 trying to think of what digital product
9:43 they want I give them the list and in
9:44 order to get it for free they put in
9:45 their name and email and it's
9:47 automatically delivered to their email
9:48 and then they're joining my email list
9:50 at the same time and that is exactly how
9:52 you move your YouTube followers to email
9:54 subscribers so now you might be thinking
9:56 well why would I want to grow an email
10:00 list girl girl girl girl girl
10:03 I have had an email list since 200
10:05 whatever it was nine when I started my
10:08 photo business okay email is key every
10:10 business that makes great money and is
10:13 successful has an email list email is 40
10:17 times more effective that's 4 Z 40 times
10:18 more effective at making sales than
10:21 social media alone not only that but by
10:22 getting people onto your email list you
10:24 now have access to those people where
10:26 you can email them when you need to and
10:27 every single person will actually get
10:29 the email if you went to YouTube and
10:30 post post on the community tab or
10:33 Facebook or Instagram and made a post
10:34 not even everyone who follows you is
10:36 even going to see it let alone receive
10:39 it so email is just so so important and
10:41 key to Growing your business and I'm
10:43 about to demonstrate to you how to
10:45 integrate your freebie into your YouTube
10:47 video if you want my email list building
10:49 bundle totally for free go in the link
10:51 in the description below this video and
10:53 you can download it for free now okay so
10:55 now you might be thinking this is all
10:57 good great you know but what digital
10:58 product do I create and how do I get started
10:59 started
11:01 well there are two ways to decide on
11:03 what digital product you want to make
11:05 you can a just say okay this is the
11:07 knowledge I have so this is the digital
11:08 product I'm going to create and then
11:10 grow a following around that but what I
11:12 actually recommend and what I think is
11:13 better is actually start growing your
11:15 following first and also move them to
11:17 email subscribers and once you have
11:20 about 100 to 200 email subscribers then
11:22 you can send them a survey asking them
11:24 you know what is your biggest struggle
11:26 what is your biggest problem like or
11:27 within your certain Niche like what do
11:28 you struggle with most when it comes to
11:30 Neal plan what do you struggle with most
11:31 when it comes to Growing your photo
11:33 business like whatever it is and then
11:35 whatever they tell you the biggest pain
11:36 point that is what you want to create
11:38 your digital product around because
11:40 people do not pay to just consume
11:43 information no people pay to consume
11:46 information to solve a problem solve a
11:48 problem think about anything you bought
11:50 you bought a laptop that solves a
11:51 problem you need a computer to run your
11:53 business you bought a refrigerator that
11:54 solves the problem you need a
11:57 refrigerator to cool your food all right
11:58 whatever it was you bought you bought
11:59 lighting for your YouTube Studio you
12:01 need to light to create videos to make
12:04 money whatever that is so every single
12:05 product that sells it's because it
12:07 solves a problem and your digital
12:09 product is no different this might sound
12:10 harsh but your digital product should
12:12 not just be around what you want to
12:15 create it should be around listening to
12:16 your customers and what problem they
12:19 need solved that is what's going to make
12:21 your digital product sell okay now that
12:22 you know what the easiest digital side
12:24 hustle is and why it's great for women
12:27 over 40 gives us lots of free time we're
12:28 tired we don't rework in all the time right
12:30 right
12:31 but also how to actually sell your
12:33 digital products and all of that good
12:34 stuff you might be wanting to know how
12:36 to actually automate the marketing so
12:38 once you have the following the email
12:39 list you know you know what digital
12:41 product to create you've created it how
12:42 do you actually automate your sales for
12:44 that consistent passive income so here's
12:48 what it comes down to email lists okay
12:50 having an automated email sequence this
12:53 is a series of emails that are automated
12:54 so one example is I have a welcome
12:57 sequence where someone will download a
12:58 freebie and then they're going to start
13:01 to get one email a day from me for 5
13:03 days these are pre-written these are
13:05 prescheduled these are automated so
13:06 every single person's going to get the
13:08 same emails they're going to get the
13:10 same onboarding experience and it's
13:11 going to be consistent every single time
13:13 which is perfect so what these five
13:15 emails do is they introduce them to me
13:17 my world what I'm going to help them
13:19 with and then the last two emails have
13:21 calls to action to take my free online
13:24 training the training is super helpful
13:26 and at the end it mentions my membership
13:28 and that is one way that I get sales for
13:30 my membership as as well now I could go
13:32 way more in depth into an automated
13:33 email sequence for example after those 5
13:37 days then I have 30 days of nurture five
13:39 days of promotion 30 days of nurture
13:41 five days of promotion now when I say 30
13:42 days I don't mean I'm sending them an
13:44 email every day for 30 days I'm just
13:46 sending them one email a week for 30
13:47 days so they're getting about four
13:50 emails in a 30-day time period and these
13:52 are just helpful I don't sell anything
13:55 they're just helpful free email saying
13:57 like hey check out this YouTube here or
13:59 this podcast here or this blog post here
14:00 free free free just helping them and
14:02 nurturing them and giving them more of
14:04 that info that they're looking for and
14:06 then after those 30 days of nurture then
14:08 I'll do a five-day promotion like go
14:09 check out my membership right and I'll
14:11 talk about that for 5 days then I'll go
14:13 back to 30 days of nurture and mine is
14:15 actually nine months long now now it
14:17 wasn't that long from day one I've been
14:20 building it up over time but this is how
14:21 you can get that consistent passive
14:23 income and once you have this built out
14:25 your entire job is just creating YouTube
14:27 videos I film just two days a month
14:29 filming all of my videos for the whole
14:31 month so I do eight videos a month and
14:33 it takes me two days so if you were
14:35 doing four videos which is one per week
14:37 it would just take you one day to film
14:38 all those and that's what's so cool is
14:40 I'm able to film them batch them
14:43 schedule them and live a life okay I'll
14:45 be honest like in the beginning I did
14:47 work a lot more because I had to lay the
14:49 foundation but I really don't work that
14:51 much now like I go to pottery classes I
14:53 do tons of things with friends we do
14:54 weekly family dinners we do weekly date
14:56 nights we do tons of road trips this
14:58 weekend I'm spending the weekend at my
14:59 aunt's cabin I'm going to be taking care
15:02 of her horses chickens animals it's
15:03 going to be so fun to just be like out
15:05 in the wilderness totally alone in this
15:08 cabin because I have the freedom to do
15:10 that right I have the freedom to design
15:12 my weeks my months my quarters my years
15:14 to be exactly how I want them and that
15:15 is what I want for you too because let's
15:19 face it we deserve it all right we are
15:23 women okay almost 40 okay or over 40 and
15:24 we deserve it we've worked hard for a
15:27 long time and we deserve to be able to
15:28 take that knowledge that we have and
15:30 share with others because it is valuable
15:32 we're able to then help people and we're
15:34 able to then be rewarded to have
15:37 consistent passive income to live our
15:39 days how we would like okay now that you
15:40 know what I believe to be the easiest
15:42 digital side hustle and how you can get
15:44 started with it I would love for you to
15:47 take action because you can consume and
15:48 consume and consume all this information
15:50 but none of it's going to happen none of
15:51 your goals are going to get reached
15:53 until you actually take action so I want
15:55 your first step of taking action to be
15:57 to leave me a comment and let me know
15:59 once you have this built out what is the
16:01 number one thing you're going to focus
16:03 your free time on are you going to take
16:05 pottery classes horseback riding spend
16:06 more time with your kids your grandkids
16:08 like what's that going to be for you go
16:10 ahead and let me know in the comments
16:12 let's Manifest this all right let's get
16:14 this cooking let's get this going this
16:16 will motivate you to take action on this
16:19 so you can make this reality and now
16:20 that you know what I believe to be the
16:22 easiest digital side hustle for women
16:24 over 40 you might be ready to get
16:26 started step by step to create your very
16:29 own ebook but how do you do that well it
