barrier to entry you don't need a

talking about here is leveraging the

power of other people's products and

sale or lead you generate think about it

unique link you get paid it's a

1:36
angles that are perfect for the evolving
1:38
digital landscape of
1:40
2025 my goal here is to give you the
1:43
insights and the inspiration to pick one
1:45
or two of these really dive deep and
1:48
start building something substantial so
1:50
grab a coffee maybe a notepad and let's
1:52
get into the good
1:56
stuff all right first up let's talk
1:58
about blogging now I know some people
2:00
out there say "Graham is blogging still
2:02
a thing isn't it all about video now?"
2:05
And while video is huge let me tell you
2:07
blogging is far from dead in fact it's
2:09
an incredibly powerful and evergreen way
2:12
to generate passive income through
2:14
affiliate marketing think about it when
2:16
people are looking for specific
2:18
information detailed reviews or
2:20
solutions to their problems where do
2:22
they often go first google and what does
2:24
Google love highquality informative
2:27
written content that's where your blog
2:29
comes in becoming a valuable resource
2:31
that attracts organic traffic day in and
2:33
day out the real magic with blogging and
2:35
affiliate marketing happens when you
2:37
strategically weave your affiliate links
2:39
into content that genuinely helps your
2:41
readers this could be in-depth product
2:43
reviews where you share your honest
2:45
experience how-to guides that recommend
2:47
specific tools or resources or
2:49
comparison posts that help people make
2:51
informed purchasing decisions once that
2:54
content is published and starts ranking
2:56
in search engines it can earn you
2:58
commissions for months or even years
3:01
with minimal ongoing effort it's about
3:03
creating that upfront value optimizing
3:06
for search and then letting the internet
3:08
do its thing seriously a wellmonetized
3:10
blog post can be like a little automated
3:12
sales machine working for you
3:17
24/7 next on the list and this one is
3:20
obviously very close to my own heart is
3:22
leveraging YouTube channels for
3:24
affiliate marketing if a picture is
3:26
worth a,000 words then a video
3:28
especially a well-produced one can be
3:30
worth 10 times that when it comes to
3:32
convincing someone about a product or
3:33
service youtube allows you to connect
3:36
with an audience on a much more personal
3:37
level they see your face hear your voice
3:40
and can get a real sense of your genuine
3:42
opinion on whatever you're recommending
3:45
this builds a tremendous amount of trust
3:47
which is absolutely crucial for
3:48
affiliate marketing success it's not
3:51
just about throwing links out there it's
3:53
about building a community the ways to
3:55
integrate affiliate links are plentiful
3:57
you can put them in your video
3:58
description which is prime real estate
4:00
mention them in a pinned comment or even
4:03
use YouTube cards to subtly point
4:04
viewers towards a product you're
4:06
discussing think about review videos
4:08
where you unbox and demonstrate a
4:10
product tutorials where you use specific
4:12
software or tools and link to them or
4:14
even vlogs where you might casually
4:16
mention a service you use and love the
4:19
key is authenticity and providing value
4:21
first if your audience trusts your
4:23
recommendations they'll be far more
4:25
likely to check out what you're
4:26
suggesting and that's how you start
4:28
generating those passive affiliate
4:30
commissions consistently from your video
4:32
content
4:36
all right let's shift gears to online
4:38
courses this strategy is fantastic
4:40
because it combines sharing your
4:42
expertise with a very natural way to
4:43
integrate affiliate marketing if you
4:45
have knowledge or a skill that others
4:47
want to learn creating an online course
4:49
can be an incredible asset and here's
4:51
the affiliate marketing angle within
4:53
your course content you can recommend
4:54
tools software books or other resources
4:57
that will help your students succeed for
4:59
example if you're teaching a course on
5:01
web design you might recommend specific
5:03
hosting providers or premium themes
5:05
using your affiliate links it's a
5:07
natural fit because you're genuinely
5:09
trying to help your students the beauty
5:11
of this approach is that the affiliate
5:13
recommendations feel less like a sales
5:15
pitch and more like valuable advice from
5:18
a trusted instructor your students are
5:20
already invested in learning from you so
5:22
they're more receptive to your
5:24
suggestions while creating a highquality
5:26
online course does require a significant
5:29
upfront investment of time and effort
5:31
once it's launched it can become a
5:33
serious source of passive income the
5:36
course sales themselves are one stream
5:38
and the affiliate commissions generated
5:40
from the resources you recommend within
5:42
the course become another powerful
5:44
ongoing stream it's about creating a
5:47
comprehensive learning experience that
5:49
also works for you financially
5:54
now let's talk about becoming a social
5:56
media influencer or leveraging an
5:58
existing social media presence for
6:00
affiliate marketing in 2025 platforms
6:04
like Instagram Tik Tok X formerly
6:06
Twitter and even Pinterest are
6:09
incredibly powerful for reaching
6:10
targeted audiences if you've built up a
6:13
following no matter the size around a
6:15
specific niche whether it's fitness
6:17
cooking tech fashion or anything else
6:19
you have an opportunity to monetize that
6:21
influence through affiliate partnerships
6:24
your followers look to you for
6:25
recommendations inspiration and advice
6:28
creating a perfect environment for
6:29
sharing products you genuinely use and
6:32
love the key here as always is
6:34
authenticity and disclosure you need to
6:36
be transparent about your affiliate
6:38
relationships hello FTC guidelines but
6:41
when done correctly it feels natural you
6:44
can share affiliate links in your
6:45
Instagram stories with swipe up features
6:47
or link stickers in your bio link or in
6:50
dedicated posts where you showcase a
6:52
product for example a fitness influencer
6:54
might share their favorite workout gear
6:56
with affiliate links or a food blogger
6:58
might link to specific kitchen gadgets
7:00
they use the more engaged your audience
7:02
is and the more they trust your taste

and judgment the more effective your

7:23
many people overlook email marketing
7:25
people might say "Graham email isn't
7:27
that old news?" Absolutely not your
7:29
email list is one of the most valuable
7:31
assets you can build as an online
7:33
entrepreneur unlike social media
7:35
followers where algorithms can change
7:37
and restrict your reach your email list
7:39
is yours you have a direct line of
7:41
communication to people who have
7:42
actively opted in to hear from you which

means they are generally a much warmer
7:47
and more engaged audience for your

affiliate promotions think about it you

you know will be highly relevant to your

can provide exclusive deals in-depth
8:03
reviews or early bird access to offers
8:06
through your affiliate links the key is
8:08
to build your list consistently by
8:10
offering valuable lead magnets like a
8:13
free guide checklist or webinar and then
8:15
nurturing that list by providing
8:17
consistent value not just constantly
8:19
selling when you do promote an affiliate
8:22
product it's to an audience that already
8:24
knows likes and trusts you leading to
8:26
significantly higher conversion rates

than just blasting links out to the cold
8:33
internet chapter six podcasting
8:36
affiliate income for your ears let's
8:39
talk about the power of audio with our
8:41
sixth strategy podcasting podcasts have
8:44
exploded in popularity and people often

8:48
out or doing chores making it a very
8:50
intimate and engaging medium if you have
8:53
a voice and a topic you're passionate

strong connection with podcast hosts

friend this creates a fertile ground for
9:12
affiliate success there are several ways
9:15
to incorporate affiliate marketing into
9:17
your podcast you can verbally mention a
9:19
product or service during an episode and
9:22
direct listeners to a special link in
9:23
your show notes for example if you host
9:26
a podcast on personal finance you might
9:29
recommend a budgeting app or an
9:30
investment platform using your affiliate
9:32
link you could also have dedicated
9:34
segments almost like sponsored ad reads
9:37
but for affiliate products you genuinely
9:39
endorse the key is to make it sound
9:42
natural and relevant to your content not
9:44
like a jarring commercial as your
9:46
