I cannot stress this tactic enough. When setting up a YouTube channel for monetization, a quick link in the description and a quick mention of your related products, services, or income streams that would appropriately fit the video is a great way to cross pollenate. You can even do a series of videos specifically meant as a promotion of a book or product.
Don’t Stop Posting Videos
As with other forms of passive income, having new content on a semi-regular basis is a big encouragement for viewers to return, to subscribe, and to ultimately seek out your other offerings. Much like writing blog posts, if you want to avoid the hustle of always creating a new video, take time to get ahead of the game and have a few on hand for when you’re not willing to put in the work or need to work on other projects for awhile.
Income Stream #4: Online Courses This income stream is closely related to YouTube in the sense that it involves video, but video is not the full extent of online courses. Using sites like Udemy.com to post an online course that teaches the skillsets related to your niche is a great way to draw in additional passive income. These courses typically involve video lectures, demonstration, transcripts of video, sometimes extra text and image materials, and much more.
