I just discovered a solopreneur that is making over $3 million per year from his websites he does everything essentially by himself and he's figured out a simple template to follow that I'll share with you here in just a second not only will I share all of his websites and how much money they make but I also got fascinated with this idea of solopreneurs building really successful online businesses so I did some more digging and found three additional examples of solopreneurs all making over one million per year from their websites so in today's video I'll be sharing stories of four solopreneurs the websites they built and how much money they are making these truly are oneperson businesses Run online and frankly I think they are extremely inspiring and motivating so grab yourself a bowl of Honeycombs and get comfortable holy Honeycombs this is about to get really good you know I like to think of myself as an idea person and I've tried out several different Niche businesses however the first person I'd like to highlight today has really taken it to the next level Peter levels has launched over 70 startups and is currently making over $3 million per year and he does it all on his own as a solopreneur and while living The Nomad lifestyle as he travels the world I get it it sounds too good to be true however you'll learn a few tricks that really help Peter launch new websites quickly when Peter has an idea he just builds it quickly and launches it he doesn't over strategize or get analysis paralysis he does have the advantage of having the tech skills in order to build and program these ideas so as soon as he has a new idea he follows the exact same Tex stack and uses similar website templates to get it out the door which saves him a ton of time honestly it's just easier to show you to really drive this point home here's a handful of his websites he's launched no man ad.com a website where you can research destinations to live find Nomad meetups and much more remote okay.com a place where you can find a remote job and work from anywhere interior ai.com where you can redesign your interior in seconds using AI photo ai.com where you can train an AI using your own photos to create stunning new photos of you in any pose or location that you desire he ALS o has an AI Avatar section on the photo AI website that will use AI to create AI avatars of yourself for use on social media or anywhere else now did you notice how similar all the websites looked this is a big reason why he can launch things so quickly he isn't overthinking anything he just has a Tex stack that he knows he can build and he copies his templates from his other websites here's what Peter said about his websites in text stack all my websites and projects are built by just me with vanilla HTML JS and jQuery PHP and SQL light I'm very fast with my own little stack I don't collaborate with other people and I prefer shipping fast by myself for photo AI I've hired an AI Dev for a while to help me set up AI models and GPU servers but everything else is by me a true solopreneur I love it as for marketing these ideas Peter has always taken a build in public approach so he's often been featured and posted in Indie haacker news Reddit and he's extremely active on Twitter so he builds a projects and shares everything publicly wherever he can then he often starts sharing Revenue numbers from these projects and that helps him gain even more followers he now has over 600,000 followers on Twitter and was even featured on the incredibly popular Lex fredman podcast so how well are all of these businesses doing in total these websites are doing over $3 million per year all with a single founder nomads. comom is making around $700,000 per year remote okay does close to $2 million per year and photo ai.com makes $121,000 per month how incredible is that now obviously none of this is easy but but Peter has found a formula that works well for him and I'm confident that there are a few things that you can learn from his story before I move on to all heard the advice that you should build a following and then sell products to your audience well this next solopreneur is someone who has scaled that idea to a $2.45 million a year business let's dig into the story of Justin Welsh Justin came onto the scene with his blog and newsletter in 2019 however he quickly started sharing productivity and marketing tips on LinkedIn and Twitter you see he had grown the company patient pop to $50 million r r and was sharing what he had learned in that process through his highly engaging writing he was able to start building an audience in 20120 he launched his first product titled LinkedIn Playbook and it was a moderate success of about $75,000 in sales that year his newsletter the Saturday solopreneur now has over 175,000 subscribers he has a Twitter following over 517,000 followers and over 73,000 followers on on LinkedIn Justin has found that he has an exceptional skill of producing highly engaging written content he does not do video content on YouTube his skill is in writing and he's doubled down on that finding what you are good at as a solar preneur is so important his growth hack well one of his recent tweets simply says my big X growth hack is showing up every day for 1,210 days in a row sometimes you just have to be consistent and put in real effort every day and now that Justin knows his superpower of writing and business he gets asked by his audience how he does it these are now the obvious products and courses that he creates and sells to his massive audience according to his latest numbers he is likely doing over $2.5 million a year as a solopreneur what an incredible business this next solopreneur scratched his own itch and now makes over $5 million per here from a simple email newsletter Dan NE is the founder and CEO of the tldr newsletter Dan graduated from college and became a stock Trader in New York he then transitioned into software engineering and always wanted to stay on top of the tech and business news his first business however was a tool called scraper API that was a tool for developers to extract data from websites he built this into a nice sixf figure a year business but decided to start a newsletter because he was always fascinated with current technology and business news he didn't always have time to say on top of the everchanging tech world and he figured that others likely had the same problem as him so he created a newsletter to solve his own problem he wanted to create something that others could read quickly and still stay on top of the everchanging tech landscape so he created the tldr tech newsletter in other words too long didn't read but even more interesting is how he gained his initial subscribers Dan started by spending small amounts of money on Reddit and Kora ads and he got to 1,000 subscribers in his very first month then he moved to running ads on Instagram Facebook LinkedIn and Twitter then with a few thousand subscribers he was able to start getting sponsors for his newsletter and then the tldr newsletter became a math game all he had to do was gain a new subscriber for less than he made from sponsorships while we don't know his exact cost to gain a new subscriber he is shared in interviews that his business has an incredible 80% profit margin he has now grown his email newsletter to over 1.25 million subscribers and he pulls in over $5 million per year and the latest news I can find is that he is still the only founder and has no employees in the business so yes you still can indeed run a single person business and make millions I'll provide just one final short example of a preneur with an education business let me introduce you to cat Norton aka Miss Exel at Miss excel.com cat makes over $2 million per year teaching people how to use Microsoft Excel she's been able to take the boring topic of spreadsheets and Market it in a way that is fun and interesting she posts daily videos on Tik Tok of all places yes Tik Tok and now has nearly 1 million subscribers her videos are fun and educational and it drives big business who knew that combining a boring subject with an entertaining New Age platform could lead to big success maybe that's just what your business needs who knows again none of this is easy cat works hard as a solar preneur Peter Justin and Dan work extremely hard to achieve the high levels of success that they have however they've taken their ideas and have been able to execute them well as a solopreneur and that's the beauty of the internet a single person can reach a nearly Limitless audience what online business will you build next and if you want some more inspiration for simple ideas that can make big money perhaps consider watching one of my recent videos about how a single page website makes over $21,000 per month right here thanks again for watching
