I Made A Whopping $65K Online Without Showing My Face

Are you wondering how to make money online without showing your face? This December I’m receiving a $65K payout from September’s ad revenue.

You read that correctly, that’s in just one month.

What’s even more mind boggling is that I earned this incredible payout from the comfort of my home.

In fact, January’s payout is looking like a $40K – $50K month, another massive month.

I literally went from earning my first $100 online to then my first $1,000 before ultimately hitting $8K per month.

How did I make such a big jump without any employees or a team this year?

Simple, I was able to break into a much bigger market which exposed me to millions upon millions of more people.

How to make money online without showing your face.

What’s wild is I made all this money online without showing my face through my blog.

Does this mean you have to start a blog too? Well, not exactly.

I help you identify which online platform and method is best for you in my book, “Unlock Your Personal Brand”.

But for now, I’m going to break down 3 ways you can start making money online without showing your face down below.

For those who are new to the online money-making game:

  1. Yes you can become an influencer without showing your face, I know many and will show you how.
  2. Yes you will have the opportunity to make money while you sleep.
  3. And yes you will (with time) have the time and financial freedom to spend your day and money however you’d like.

Quick facts:

  • I made my first $10 online writing music reviews on a website I created in 2019.
  • I also started to generate around $300 per month selling merchandise on eBay as a side hustle.
  • Then I created my blog in 2020 which now receives around 2 million views per month and generates 5-figures monthly.

Now, let’s get to it.

How To Make Money Online Without Showing Your Face

How to make money online without showing your face

Making money online without showing your face is something anybody can do, but especially you.

The fact that you have landed here shows effort and a willingness to start.

And if I’m being honest, that’s literally all it takes, that same consistency.

Now, there are 3 major ways on how to make money online without showing your face.

  1. Podcasting – What I love about podcasting is that you don’t necessarily have to show your face since the content is being consumed in audio format.
  2. YouTube Shows/Series – Creators are making money online without showing their face on YouTube by creating shows or series that don’t necessarily involve being in front of the camera.
  3. Blogging – Blogging is all about writing. This is a great way to build an online presence without the world having to hear your voice or see you on screen.

Chances are you want to make money online without showing your face because you’re an introvert, I’m one myself!

A smaller percentage of you simply don’t want the fame and are more private, though you wouldn’t necessarily consider yourselves an introvert, and that’s cool too.

But how do you make money online anyway?

In my book “Unlock Your Personal Brand” I go over what the best online method for you may be and also walk you step by step on how to start as early as today.

However, for the sake of this blog post, I will summarize some of the key points just for you.

Last month I made nearly $65K online without showing my face just from ad revenue.

Whether you decide to start a blog, a podcast, or a channel, you will want to start making money through ad revenue first.

What’s incredible about making money online and why it’s such an attractive career today is because of the massive leverage creators have at their disposal.

Whether you run a blog, podcast, or YouTube channel, you have the ability and tools at your disposal to get paid by millions upon millions of people for only creating a piece of work once.

This is what is known as ‘leveraged income’.

It’s when you create something once and get paid for it multiple times.

That’s the power of online leverage.

How To Start Making Money Online

The first thing you have to do to start making money online is identify which platform you will be taking on.

🔥 You can start a blog with Bluehost, create a podcast, or start your very own YouTube channel to start making money online without necessarily having to show your face.

⭐ The second step is to monetize your blog, podcast, or YouTube channel with ads.

⭐ For a blog, you’ll want to start with Google AdSense. For a podcast, you’ll want to sign up with PodBean. And for YouTube, you’ll need to first reach 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of watch time to qualify.

How Much Money Can You Make Online?

Honestly, there is no limit to how much money you can make online due to the massive leverage at the disposal of content creators.

You can make as much money online without showing your face depending on how many hits your platform receives.

Can You Become An Influencer Without Showing Your Face?

Absolutely. More and more people are becoming influencers on social media without showing their face.

The key here is knowing how to position yourself to achieve this goal.

In my book “Unlock Your Personal Brand”, I go over in detail how to market and promote yourself to attain the online success you desire.

Anyone can start a blog, a podcast, or a YouTube channel.

However, your work needs to be seen and heard for your success to grow.

My blog only received 8,500 views its first year. In my second year, the blog received 3 million views.

Nearly four years after starting, my blog has amassed more than 12 million all-time blog hits from the time of this publication.

I quit my job during my second year and never looked back.

I often tell my fiancé, “more people need to live like this.”

Believe me when I say that if I could do this, you can do it too.

Last month I made a whopping $65K online without showing my face and the only way to describe how I feel is grateful.

If you’re serious about learning how to start this new journey, I highly recommend reading the gems in “Unlock Your Personal Brand”.

#1. Aiming to Increase My Income

Whether it was looking for a salary raise, a commission raise, or an increase in clients, aiming to increase my income has always been a career priority for me.

Increasing my income has been one of the most important money management rules I’ve created for myself.

When you increase your income, you increase your ability to increase your savings and be ready when you spot investment opportunities.

#2. Diversifying Income Streams

Another very important one.

Having an additional stream of income has saved my a** during rough patches and setbacks.

Whether it’s creating a side hustle, a side business, or an income generating platform such as a blog or YouTube channel, having an additional stream of income can go a long way.

Especially if your main income is going through a slump.

Building an additional stream of income also raises your household income; who wouldn’t want an additional $1,000 per month, right?

#3. Creating a Money Management Plan

Money Management Tips – Franknez.com.

This is a great one, and one most people never start with.

Begin by writing your money goals, literally all of your money goals.

How much money you want to make, how much money you would like to save each month, how much money you can see yourself investing in something else, and so on.

By creating a money management plan, you’re able to zoom out and look at what you need to work at, even if you’re currently in a tight spot.

Sometimes we’re so busy that we forget to just simply stop and set goals that are going to propel us forward.

#4. Learning About Money

Learn how to manage money.

When you get serious about your money, you start to look for ways to get your money right.

That’s why you’re here today.

Being involved in the world of money is going to make a huge difference in your life because you will constantly be taking in great money habits from those who have learned the ropes.

While you might not agree with every money guru or entrepreneur or investor, you can always take something from everyone, and use it to mold your own personal money management experience.

#5. Having a Killer Savings Account

Money management tips.
Money Management Tips – Franknez.com.

Having a killer savings account has saved me from any type of financial setback or unprecedented expenses throughout the year.

The key to building a strong savings account is to first increase your income and then set the additional earnings aside.

The bigger your income, the more funds are made available for you to put away.

Avoid financing new cars or a new home as you increase your income.

These financial decisions will only set you back and limit how much you’re allowed to set aside in case of a rainy day.

These toys should be last on your list until you have a strong foundation and positive trajectory of where your finances are headed.

Retail Investors Have Big Opportunity in the Market Right Now

Stocks and Crypto to buy in a bear market.
Stocks and Crypto to Buy in a Bear Market | Opportunity in the market right now.

That’s right, even in today’s bear market, retail investors have big opportunity right now.

If you’re a new investor or entered the market during the bull run, chances are your portfolio is down significantly.

But don’t let your first bear market shake you off because there are numerous opportunities out there that have the potential to yield big returns.

If you’ve been reading my blog for a while now, you’ve more than likely capitalized on opportunities such as AMC, HYMC, Shiba Inu Coin, Terra Classic, and Bitcoin during properly and fortunately timed moments.

So, what’s new?

In this article, I’m going to go over the opportunities I see that lie ahead for retail investors.

None of the information on my blog is financial advice but rather speculative content based on current information and trends in the market.

And with that being said, let’s get started.

Not Invested in The Markets Yet?

If you or someone you know are not invested in the markets yet, the two articles below are going to walk you through, step-by-step on how to buy stocks for the very first time and how to buy cryptocurrency for the very first time, too.

Much information on how to invest in the markets is outdated so I wanted to create easy guides for beginners.

You can read them here to get started:

Remember, one of the greatest wealth you can share with someone else is that of knowledge.

Opportunities in the Stock Market Today

opportunities in the stock market today
Opportunities in the stock market today.

During a bear market share prices tend to tumble, hence why many long-term investor’s portfolios tend to lose value.

And although we can’t entirely time the bottom, we know that at some point the stock market is at a massive fire sale.

Value investors such as you and I can pick up shares from our favorite companies at these low prices before the market reverses trend.

Economists, analysts, and entrepreneurs alike predict there is still room for another 10%-15% drop in the markets.

But for the record, these are just predictions after all.

The point here is for value investors to capitalize on this falling trend by purchasing low and holding during the next bull market.

Whether you choose to capitalize on opportunities presented in a bull market or not will ultimately be up to you.

However, capitalizing during a bull market will require value investors to buy during a bear market, not during the bull market.

After being involved in the retail community for almost three years now, there are stocks and crypto that just stand out as having big potential during the next bull run and I’m going to discuss them below.

Stocks Worth Buying During a Bear Market

None of the information provided below is financial advice, but rather speculative in nature based on market trends and current information at the time of publication.

AMC Entertainment Stock (AMC)

You’ve probably heard all the ruckus on AMC and ‘meme stocks’.

It’s true, the stock jumped from $5 per share to an all-time high of $72 per share.

AMC Entertainment stock is currently trading below $6 again due to this bear market.

What makes this stock such an interesting value investment is that it has a huge community made up of millions of people who plan to take its current price up again.

Plus, the company has beat earnings every quarter since 2021.

Investing in the largest movie theater chain in the world could prove to pay out big during the next bull market.

SPY Stock (SPY)

I’ve talked about SPY stock numerous times on my blog.

It’s even made the list of best divided stocks to buy for passive income.

SPY is the S&P 500 index fund that tracks the top 500 performing companies in the U.S and has been a favorite amongst value investors for a long time.

Warren Buffett himself says he’s moving 90% of his wealth to this specific stock when he departs us.

Just this thought should speak for itself.

SPY has a great track record for its increased value over time.

Vanguard Real Estate REIT (VNQ)

I believe every value investor should have at least one great performing REIT, or Real Estate Investment Trust.

VNQ is Vanguard’s commercial real estate investment trust with a great track record since the recession of 2008.

The REIT is also on the list of the best dividend stocks to buy for passive income.

While the real estate market is set to retrace some of its gains, keeping an eye on this stock may provide retail investors with big opportunity during the next bull market.

GameStop Stock (GME)

What GameStop is doing with their NFT marketplace is genius and not a lot of people know about it.

Wonder why, *ahem, mainstream media*.

The video game company is making it available for people around the world to own actual digital items inside games through the use of blockchain technology.

The opportunity this technology will bring to entrepreneurs and flippers alike in the future is massive.

Investing in GameStop early on could have massive potential as our economy shifts towards the digital/metaverse economy.

Amazon Stock (AMZN)

Amazon is now affordable for just about any value investor to buy shares from.

The company stock traded above $3K per share before its 20-for-1 stock split made it available for everyone to purchase.

AMZN is currently trading below $100 per share and it’s a steal whether you’re anticipating another 10%-15% market drop or not.

Tesla Stock (TSLA)

Despite what you might think of eccentric billionaire Elon Musk, you cannot deny what the entrepreneur has created is fascinating in its own respect.

Tesla stock has shown outstanding growth in the past even after stock splits.

We’ve seen this company’s stock reach massive popularity during the previous bull market.

In fact, it was right under AMC Entertainment stock as the most searched for stock on Google in 2021.

Meta Platforms Stock (META)

Most boomer investors, like mainstream media, don’t truly understand the potential of Meta.

While Zucks might currently get made fun of by Wall Street ego, there’s a huge opportunity investing in early technology, especially a technology that one day may change the world as we know it.

Today’s innovators will carry the baton, whether old power likes it or not.

Crypto to Buy During a Bear Market

How Can the Average American Pivot in a Recession?

Recession 2023
Want to become recession proof? Here are some steps you can take.

An economic downturn, a recession, call it what you will.

The U.S. economy is in a state of emergency and the average American is suffering financially.

From stock and crypto market crashes to the rise of gas prices and increased inflation, the middle class is in desperate need of help.

The problem is no one is teaching the middle class how to pivot.

Cutting back on expenses isn’t going to do it, you can only cut so much.

This article is going to help you identify several ways to pivot during a recession so that you can take care of your family during economic hard times.

Let’s get started.

Shifting Mindset from Defense to Offense

how to prepare for a recession.
How to prepare for a recession.

During a recession, most people tend to contract, they tend to shrink (cut expenses, coupon, etc.).

Very few, however, expand and look for high reward opportunities.

It’s these opportunities that allows the few to shift their mindsets from defense mode to offense mode.

A defense mindset is idle, waiting for the government to do something about their financial setbacks (job loss, cut hours, lost pension funds, market crashes, etc.).

An offense mindset on the other hand is identifying how to keep up and overcome the changes occurring in their environment.

While most people focus on the things that are out of their control, few focus on the things that are within their control.

If you’re reading this blog, chances are you’re being impacted by our economy today and want to make more money.

Who doesn’t want to make more money?

Money is how we ensure our family’s security and wellbeing in America.

If you want to learn how you can pivot in today’s falling economy by earning more money, keep reading below.

Learn How to Use Leverage and You’ll Never Fall Short Again

how to use leverage
How to prepare for a recession.

We all have the same 24hrs in a day, but do you want to know why successful people make more money than the average person?

It’s not because they work harder than you or because they’re smarter than you.

It’s because they use leverage.

Leverage is a multiplier of both time and money.

What would have taken you decades to accomplish, leverage gets it done at a fraction of the time.

Leverage is accessible to everyone, including you.

But we don’t grow up with mom and dad teaching us this.

So, what are some forms of leverage you can take advantage of as soon as you exit this blog article?

Let’s dive right into them.

Leverage Tools to Help You Make Big Money

#1. Building Your Dream Business

Small business recession
@easymarketingconcepts

Starting a business around your hobby, passion, or skills has the potential to create that world you desire.

How does leverage play a role in building a business?

Think about this for one second.

If you work a 9-5 or commission job, you the employee are generating income for the leader of that organization and getting paid per hour or per sale to do so.

However, if you’re the business owner of a small business or startup, all revenue goes to your business account.

The leverage here is you’re now using your time to build something that will generate positive cashflow instead of giving it away for an hourly wage or commission.

If you don’t have the capital to start a new business, you can always use leverage by taking out a business loan and incrementally paying it back as your business picks up.

Using the banks money to make money is the proper way to leverage someone else’s capital to your advantage.

#2. Day Trading

how to make money during a recession

If you’re already invested in the stock market, then you’ve more than likely heard of day trading.

Day trading uses one of the biggest leveraging tools out there, the stock market/derivatives market.

Here, traders will require intense discipline in order to execute their trades with profit.

Day trading is certainly not for everyone, but if making hundreds of dollars to thousands of dollars per day sounds appealing, you can learn more about it here.

The incredible thing about trading the market is that traders can learn how to make money whether the stock market is booming or crashing.

This means that as long as you’re able to develop the skills necessary to become a consistently profitable trader, you will be able to pivot in a recession and actually make money while most of the economy faces turmoil.

Going on the offense means learning new skills and getting out of your comfort zone to be successful at something outside your 9-5.

#3. Monetizing a Platform

How to prepare for a recession.

Americans are monetizing on Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and other platforms such as blogs and podcasts.

If the idea of creating content at scale intrigues you, monetizing a platform could be a great leverage tool for you.

The bigger you grow your audience, the more income you may earn from advertising revenue, affiliate marketing, sponsored content, or other streams.

But the key here is to provide real world value that can help your audience in one form or another.

My blog for example has helped thousands of people invest in the stock and crypto markets for the first time.

Retail investors were able to profit big from investments such as Bitcoin, Shiba Inu Coin, Terra Classic, AMC, and HYMC from early ticker updates on Franknez.com.

Those who took advantage of the information came out profitable before the markets began to tank.

But not everything has to be educational – many creators are publishing content on pretty much any niche that people find interest in.

A platform will help you pivot in a recession by working 24/7 for you.

How to Prepare Personal Finances for a Recession?

In terms of your personal finances, you’ll want to allocate a good chunk of your income into a savings cash account you can build in case of an emergency.

If your income is booming during a recession, consider investing in the S&P 500 index or in rental property.

Many opportunities will present themselves in times of an economic downturn, and when they do, we better be ready.

Becoming Recession-Proof

How to prepare for a recession.

Becoming recession-proof is really about taking action.

It’s about creating something or developing new skills that will allow you to overcome any hardships that come your way during economic adversity.

Living paycheck to paycheck is hard, learning new skills is hard, building something new and getting out of our comfort zone is hard, so choose your hard.
