How to Double Your Income: Key Strategies
Introduction
Doubling your income is more doable than most people think.
Traditional thoughts on doubling income (like asking for a raise) are usually ineffective.
Doubling Income at Your Job
Ask for a Raise
Not likely to work but possible if you make yourself indispensable.
Think from an owner's perspective: How can you add to the bottom line?
Get a Job at a Prestigious Company
Increases your value and chance of getting recruited by other companies.
Example: A young lady progressing through Microsoft, Google, and now Harvard/ Amazon.
Further Education
Go back to school for a higher degree.
May improve job prospects but not guaranteed.
Starting a Side Business
A more effective way to double your income.
Choose the Right Business:
Prefer a product-based business over a service-based one.
Selling insurance or credit card processing (service treated as a product).
Disconnect Revenue from Time
Selling a service you provide limits income. Productize part of the service.
Get Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) contracts to ensure steady cash flow.
Part-Time Business Ideas
Ebooks and Audiobooks
Write and sell on Amazon; no fulfillment needed.
Ebooks ($200-$300/month) vs. Physical books (tens of thousands/month).
YouTube Channel
Create content, partner with YouTube, and earn from ads once you meet criteria (1000 subscribers, 4000 watch hours).
Example: Author makes $40-$50k/month from YouTube.
Drop Shipping
Amazon Influencer and Storefront
Recommend products and earn a commission on everything the buyer purchases within 24 hours.
Example: Some influencers make millions.
Affiliate Marketing
Promote products from sites like ClickBank and earn commissions.
Myron’s affiliate program offers 50% of sales.
Multi-level Marketing and ClickBank Affiliates
Promote and earn commission from sales, with some earning significant amounts just from referrals.
Key Warning: Don’t Quit Your Job Too Early
Only quit when your side business makes twice as much as your job.
Job you dislike serves as a motivator.
Doubling Your Revenue in Business
Increase Lead Generation
Double the number of leads through more lead magnets and opt-in funnels.
Use different opt-in funnels for the same lead magnet by targeting various demographics (e.g., entrepreneurs, authors).
Improve Conversion Rates
Enhance sales skills to double conversion rates.
Focus on persuasion over convincing.
Increase Price Points
Sell higher-priced products to increase revenue.
Add Premium Value Offers
Create high-value offers (e.g., $10,000 product) and target converted leads.
Example of Success
A company stuck at $1.2 million/year scaled to a $1.2 million day using these strategies.
Conclusion
Implementing any one of these strategies can double your income or business revenue.
Doing all of them can drastically multiply your success.
