The best business to start in 2024 (if you're creative)
What do ALL these figures have in common?

Yeah, they’ve all built successful businesses…
But you know what’s more interesting?
HOW they’re able to build businesses that generate millions of dollars a year.
The skill they all learned was the reason why they didn’t just make $10K a month online…
But hit $100K, $500K, and even $1,000,000 a month online.
And this one skill they all have in common isn’t something that’s out of reach for the everyday person.
It’s the same skill I used to go from minimum wage Domino’s delivery driver…
To scaling to $30K-$50K months in my first year of starting my online business.
And if you start learning this one skill now, you can set yourself for 2024, 2025, and hell, all the years after that.
All these people have built different businesses, but the one skill they all mastered is (insert drumroll)…
Audience building.
Think about it…
Who’s going to get more opportunities?
1) The person with 0 following?
Or…
2) The person with 10,000+ followers?
Sure, if you don’t have an online audience, you can send out a MASS amount of DMs and emails a day trying to land clients and customers.
But those who build an online audience have one of the most powerful forces in the world:
Leverage.
When you build a following, you’re creating a relationship with your audience.
You’re not just a random stranger.
You’re somebody people:
Know
Like
Trust
Now, imagine you have an audience of 10,000 people and a $2,500/month service.
Is it unreasonable to assume that out of those 10,000 people that you could land 4 clients and scale to $10,000 a month?
And it’s not just services you can sell…
If you build an audience, you can:
Sell a product
Get ad revenue
Land sponsorships
Create a high-value network
The opportunities are limitless.
And as your audience grows, so does your income (if done right).
Because for every person who follows you…
You have the potential to be shown to the people who follow them.
If they like, comment, or share your post, it increases the chances that whoever follows them will see your content and do the same.
It’s why in my first month on social media I only grew by 200 followers, but now I grow by 100-500 followers a day.
That’s 100-500 people who might become clients.
And this is why audience building is the best skill to learn as a beginner.
Because with today’s explosive growth of social media, this isn’t a skill that’s going to become obsolete.
The demand for it is only going to grow.
So by learning how to build an audience, you can make money by offering it audience growth as a service as a ghostwriter.
This is a skill I’ve taught many beginners and helped them charge $2,000-$10,000 a month.


And sure, I’ve helped many people make $10,000+ a month with ghostwriting…
But my favorite part is that it’s a transferable skill.
So maybe after 1-3 years you want to start a different online business.
You’ll have the experience and skill of creating content that generates you traffic and sales for that business.
So, if you’re curious about learning more about ghostwriting, I just released a new YouTube video on why I think it’s one of the best businesses you can start in 2024.
