How I made my first million stories. Personal experience: How I made my first money. Binary options - real takeoff

  • 05.03.2020

The webmaster's extraordinary approach to the binary options affiliate program and what came of it.

In fact, active promotion in RuNet began several years ago. In simple words, they are a very profitable, but also a very risky tool that brings money even to those who do not get up from their home couch. And that's how many people dream of making money.

Why did I decide to become a vlogger?

To be honest, I didn’t know how to make videos at all before. However, financial topics have always been interesting to me, and I already had a general idea about stock trading.

I myself am a fan of watching an interesting movie or TV series, and in general I think that people will trust a real person from a video more than all sorts of stories out there, how at the age of 18 someone made money on a cool car.

In my own money, I was limited to much, while people themselves will share with others the video they like. In general, all the puzzles have developed.

After reviewing many videos on YouTube, I saw both good records and curves. Often there were videos where the blogger himself did not even consider it necessary to delve deeper into the topic and re-read several topics about which the video was recording, but simply copied someone's work, on which someone had already earned.

Also, real jambs are noticeable in the video, where a person simply memorized the text and does not even understand what he is talking about, so all his emotionality is very strained. The viewer, of course, immediately “cuts through” this.

I decided not to step on the "rake" of others. I don't know how to act, so I had to improve myself. In fact, my job is the same as everyone else's, it's just that I'm playing for the camera, not clapping keyboard keys. And I don’t like writing lyrics, so I started preparing the “scene”.

1. Home film studio.

I tried to think logically: if I advertise earnings in the “home chair”, then the place of recording should be an apartment and a home PC.

To record high-quality video, you need good lighting and a camera. At that time, I didn’t know about video tricks at all, but the guys from the affiliate program advised me.

2. Video camera.

An ordinary DSLR will be enough, we are not shooting a film.

I decided to take the Canon 550D - you can find it for 10k.

You need to stand out with some interesting topic. If you start with simple ones, I advise you to try to cover the topic as much as possible.

3. Lighting.

I did not buy special spotlights, but made my own softbox from a YouTube video.

The main focus of light should be on the face. Also, do not sit close to the wall if it is behind you, otherwise you will light up everything around you.

How to create a channel on Youtube?

I created a header for my channel with graphic editor, then I designed covers for each video in the same style. At first, of course, it turned out a little crooked.

Finally got around to making videos. The basis of all records is . The more dynamic the video is, the more people will be interested in it.

1) The theme of the stories.

I started with stories about what to do so that options bring profit, and do not take away investments. Then I made a couple of recordings of the trading process and explanations of the principles technical analysis. The trick is to make the material as interesting as possible.

First I got subscribers without money, and then I created a series of posts about how Binomo can be accelerated to a decent amount with just $10. The partner told me what to do.

2) Monetization.

Immediately provided for monetization.

First I chose FinMax, OlympTrade and Binomo. After talking with affiliate managers, I settled on BinPartner (an affiliate program from Binomo).

I've been blogging for 6 months already - every month I get about 60% of the trader's deposit. By the way, Binomo provided an excellent CPA system, but I did not use it, because my viewers subscribe to the channel and re-deposit after my videos.

Promotion, statistics and profitability of the channel ...

His channel almost did not advertise. I invested a little only in likes from similar channels and in a special viewing service. More than 3 thousand rubles. I didn't have to invest in a month. But the exhaust was decent! My logic is that if you do it well, people will come.

In general, I was engaged in the channel for six months. Then I got bored, and I stopped recording video, but even now I get a good passive income on it.

My YouTube results for all time

And here are my results in the broker's affiliate cabinet for the last three months (including half of May):

Over the years, my expenses have been:

  • 8 000 rub. on camera
  • 1000 rub. for lighting and microphone

My earnings

August-February is the period when I did not focus on subscribers and did not understand how to make money on them. As a result, it turned out about 1000 dollars a month.

Since March, he has been actively communicating with the audience - giving answers to messages, talking on Skype. Profit rose to 1250 bucks.

Since April, I have been seriously engaged in video blogging and spent 6 hours daily on it. As a result, 3045 dollars came out in a month (I was striving for such an amount).

Since May, I started to receive income from the BinPartner contest, where registrations and account replenishment are paid. As a result of the competition, I received 1,500 bucks in early May. By the way, the competition will be held for the whole of June, so hurry up.

The first half of May brought me $6,000, which inspired me to write the case. I decided to explain to people who do not know in which direction to direct themselves.

Let me summarize again:

  • $1250 for March
  • $1500 (competition) + $3045 for April
  • $6000 for May

How much can you really earn on YouTube?

Of course, I'm bragging)). But it's really something that anyone can do. So keep it up and good luck!

Actually, it was high time to do this, I mean start making money on Youtube. I created your channel on Youtube almost simultaneously with the blog. If I launched the blog in May 2009, then I opened the channel in June 2009.

Wow, that's almost 5 years of missed opportunities! Oh, who would have given me a kick a little earlier. There was no such person under the ass hand. I hope that with this post I will be that person for other people who may also have their own YouTube channel, but they do not receive any profit from it.

But even if you do not have your own Youtube channel, read this post to the end anyway, perhaps this note will encourage you to create and monetize your channel, especially since it is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance.

So let's start with the numbers. I connected the monetization of my channel in mid-October 2013 (I will write more about what monetization is below). I did it at first not quite legally, although this point is a big question.

The fact is that for Russia, the functions of monetizing video content on Youtube are not yet fully available. Therefore, in order to receive income from YouTube, you need to either change the country of your location in the channel settings, or become a partner of one of the media networks (read intermediaries) that have entered into an agreement with Youtube and provide their partners with the opportunity to monetize videos. However, they take a certain percentage from the authors.

So, according to the employees of the media network, to which I subsequently connected, Youtube rules prohibit changing the country of your location in the channel settings. That is, if you indicated in the settings that you are in the United States, and you yourself upload videos from Russia, then this can lead to a ban.

To be honest, I myself did not find such information in the rules of Youtube. I confess that I searched badly, or rather, an abundance different pages and documents in the rules of Youtube is so much brainwashed that without a bottle you can’t figure it out. And since I don’t drink, I had to take the word of the media network employees

By the way, if you have accurate information about this, please share it in the comments.

As you probably guessed, later I switched from the illegal method of monetization, which I wrote about above, to the legal one, namely, I became a partner of one media network, which I will discuss in more detail below.

This is all I tell you to the fact that now I will show you 2 screenshots:

  • One made in account Google Adsense, since it is there that the income received by me in an “illegal” or “semi-legal” way is reflected. For convenience, let's call this option that way for the time being.
  • The second screen is taken from the account of the media network, which I connected to in November.

The second screenshot shows that I earned a little over $25 from November 1st to November 31st. This is data from personal account media network YouPartnerWSP which I joined.

In total, for a month and a half, almost 50 dollars, which, translated into rubles at today's exchange rate, will be about 1,600 rubles.

Well, the money is not big, but .... MONEY! You know, when I started blogging, the first thousand rubles I earned meant a lot to me. When I started, I did not quite believe that I would be able to earn something on the Internet. I thought they were all fairy tales. It didn’t fit in my head that you can earn money sitting at home at the computer.

As a self-employed person, it always seemed to me that in order to make money, you had to go to work and do something, something tangible and real. And the Internet for me has always been associated with something virtual, that is, not quite real.

And the first thousand rubles I earned became a confirmation for me, a real fact that there is money on the Internet and it is really possible to earn it. Since then, several years have passed and I have earned several million rubles on the Internet, and it all started with some miserable thousand.

The first thousand rubles earned on Youtube reminded me of that time. The time when I did NOT really believe in the success of my undertaking and my subsequent final results.

If I was once able, starting with the first thousand rubles earned on a blog, to subsequently earn several million rubles, then why not repeat the same thing on Youtube?

Or rather, why not add another source of income to the sources of income that I already have, which can potentially bring millions of rubles every year?

As you know, I am a fan of creating multiple streams of income. I recommend reading my articles on this topic:

I created my Youtube channel as an addition to my blog. More precisely, I needed to somehow broadcast videos, which I then only tried to do.

Back then, I didn't even think about making money with videos. And if he did, he had no idea how money is made on YouTube.

A few years later, I learned about different ways to make money on youtube, but I simply did not have time to work on this topic. In addition, at that moment it was too difficult and incomprehensible for me.

Youtube is a huge colossus in which there are a lot of different settings, modes, sections. To be honest, about a year ago I somehow tried to figure this whole thing out, but I didn't have the perseverance.

Uploading a video on Youtube and embedding it on your blog is a matter of minutes, everything is simple there. But to set up your channel, create personal design, deal with playlists, enable monetization, insert annotations into videos, make the correct description for each video, provide it with accompanying tags, promote it in the search results - it was very difficult for me.

But no matter how long I put off solving this issue, sooner or later I would still have to face the fact that today youtube.com is the third most popular site in the world after Google search engine and social network Facebook.

And if we talk about searching for information, then in our country the third search engine (only by video) after Google and Yandex. That is, Youtube is no longer just a means for entertainment, although it is entertainment content that makes up the bulk of views on YouTube. This service is also for many people an alternative to standard search engines.

People go to YouTube not only to have fun, but also to learn or learn something, because for many people it is much easier to learn from videos.

Thus, from all that has been said, the following conclusion can be drawn: to ignore the huge traffic (high attendance) of people who hang out on Youtube every day is simply stupid.

I, as a person who develops in the Internet sphere, as a person who earns money on the Internet, cannot pass by this. With the help of YouTube, I can close a lot of questions:

  • I can make money and so can you;
  • You can redirect part of the traffic from YouTube to your sites;
  • You can redirect part of the traffic to partner sites;
  • You can increase your popularity and brand awareness (I don’t like this word, but still).

But than I definitely like Youtube. so it is an opportunity to calculate your potential income using specific data. So that you understand what I'm talking about, remember some of your business ideas. In order for your business idea to be realized, you need to calculate everything in advance in order to understand whether the game is worth the candle.

In practice, it is impossible to take into account all the nuances and force majeure circumstances. Because of what many beginners are very far from reality. I think because of this, situations occur when 9 out of 10 new businesses go to the bottom in the first year of their existence.

Youtube gives me accurate statistics every day on the basis of which I can calculate WHAT I need to do in order to INCREASE my income.

For example, I displayed the statistics for the month and see that:

  • The average number of views per day on my channel is 531;
  • The average number of clicks on ads in my videos is 25;
  • The average income that I receive at the same time is $ 1.04 per day.
  • About 90 videos are currently uploaded on my channel, which were uploaded just like that, without being tied to any keywords and specific user requests, that is, not optimized.
  • On average, each video is viewed about 6 times a day.

To increase the amount of earnings on Youtube, I need to increase the number of views. You can do this in many ways, such as uploading new videos, or optimizing and promoting existing videos. Better yet, do both.

To achieve this goal, I need to upload to my channel:

  • 200 266 once a day;
  • Or 500 videos, each of which will be viewed 107 once a day;
  • Or 1000 videos, each of which will be viewed 54 times a day.

Now there are 90 videos on my channel. If I aim for 1000 clips, then I need to create another 910 clips. That is, you need to create and upload about 3 videos to your channel every day during the year. Plus, you need to take into account that you need to increase the view of each video to 54 from the 6 views that I have now.

The task is difficult, but realizable. I'm not going to make three videos every day. Most likely I will do it much more slowly. At the moment, speed is not so important to me. I have other sources of income.

Therefore, I consider Youtube as a long-term tool that will bring me sufficient income in 2-3 years

What I like most about this whole undertaking is that it does not require large capital investments to organize a business of this kind. If you are reading this article, then you have a computer and Internet access. This alone is not enough, we need one more little thing, namely the head on the shoulders))

You need a little imagination, creativity and knowledge of programs for processing and editing video. And here you need to be afraid more than the first two points than knowledge of specialized software.

Available programs are now a dime a dozen. But you can’t download brains from the Internet ...

Expect from me soon detailed manuals on Youtube, namely:

  • How to register and create your own channel;
  • How to improve it;
  • Which niche to choose;
  • How to create your own video;
  • In what programs to edit and process it with detailed video instructions;
  • How to enable monetization;
  • How to optimize video and increase the number of views;
  • How to organize several ways to make money on Youtube. In this note, I actually touched on only one option for earning money, but there are actually many more.
  • And much more…

To be honest, I just woke up a terrible interest in this topic. I don't feel like writing about anything else. But besides this, I will also publish materials on the topic of making money on a blog, creating and making money with an online store.

Naturally, there will be many videos, so subscribe to my channel on Youtube right now so you don't miss anything. Also don't forget to subscribe to the email newsletter.

P.S. If you are interested in the topic of making money on Youtube, then strike a couple of lines in the comments or like below. According to your feedback I will make a conclusion about the need for this topic. If there is little feedback, then you may need to reconsider your plans for writing articles on this topic.

Regular readers of my blog often write to me and ask how they manage to collect decent money on the Internet. I do not hide my methods, although I use several directions at once. I started from scratch, did not understand anything about remote work, but it took about 3 years to achieve stability.

How did I start making money online? Like many other beginners, at first I chose the simplest methods and tried to earn at least something.

Over time, he moved to more profitable niches, including opening a blog. But it is best to start with Forex trading, as it is profitable.

Binary options - real takeoff

In order not to mess with trifles, you need to immediately choose a worthy activity. In this regard, binary options are the best option.

With their help, you can increase your capital in a day. I trade with the help of Binarium, they have recently updated their platform, so it is now even more convenient to use it.

Watch video review:

The essence of options is to open rates on various quotes. I have already submitted an article related to this way of earning "". At first, I myself did not believe that it was possible to make good money on this, now I am convinced that this is one of the best options.

To give you an idea of ​​how easy it is to place bets, look at an example of opening an option:

You can choose any asset as well as the time of its action. Choose the amount yourself, it remains only to decide in which direction the chart will change, whether it will go down or up. Profitability of 75%, even if you make one trade per day for $100, profit is $75 (almost 5000 rubles).

Of course, it is not always possible to close options with income, but if you practice a little or apply strategies, you're still on the winning side:

It helps me to consistently earn on binary options. It is built on special indicators, they give hints.

Are you afraid that you won’t be able to do this or don’t have money to start? You can always use affiliate program. Binarium is ready to give up to 30% of its profits or up to $50 for an invited client.

I invited a lot of users to their site, here are my stats:

The company is reliable, has been working for many years and consistently pays me honestly earned money. Make deals or attract traders, decide for yourself, both options are interesting. Just don't think that advertising a broker is easy.

Where did I start?

Once I didn’t even have a blog and I didn’t understand anything about making money on Forex. There was a desire to work on the Internet, so I started looking for available options. First of all, I registered on Wmmail. This is a click sponsor, where there are a lot of small assignments. It is quite possible to collect up to $ 5 per day on this:

Incomes are not high, but everything is elementary. In parallel with this method, I discovered for myself. It is even simpler, you need to participate in promotions, even likes are paid.

I created several profiles and fulfilled orders from them, but the profit was also not high:

Then I decided it was time to create my own website. It turned out that it really good idea. The topic was not even considered, I was interested in making money on the Internet, so the blog was opened just about this. If you also decide to do this, you can choose other topics, the main thing is that you are interested in doing the project.

Where else is there big money?

In recent years, I began to actively invest money. I tried many projects, but so far it turned out to be the most profitable. This is the simplest game in which cars are bought and passive income comes from them. They cost differently, so they don’t bring the same amount:

I have already lost count of how many of these cars I have. I constantly buy additional cars, although I have already achieved huge daily accruals. I didn’t deposit a lot of money right away, I developed over time.

Decide how much to invest in the game yourself, you can start with 50 rubles, although it is better to invest at least 1300 rubles to buy at least a 3rd level taxi:

Personally, I have no problems with this, every day I withdraw substantial amounts from the balance:

Agree, the money is not bad, but I did not start earning it right away. Although I don’t regret the time spent at all, if I had worked at a regular job, I definitely wouldn’t have achieved such results.

Now you know how I started my career, and you can also try to become a successful moneymaker. It takes a lot of time and effort, but if you work, then at least you get a decent income and constantly develop. In the future, working through the Internet will become even more popular, so it’s definitely worth doing.

Roman SidorenkoPure

Sevastopol, 1991, I am 13 years old, my best friend got hold of the negatives with pornographic photos somewhere, printed them at home, but I undertook to distribute them. At school, another friend, a couple of years younger, carried printed photos with him, and I arranged to exchange them for valuable artifacts - cigarettes, Turbo inserts, chains, The A-Team stickers, and, well, money. After I received payment, the buyer received photos from a younger friend. multilevel security.

Business flourished, I became the most powerful person in the school. A few weeks later, one of the losers, who did not have artifacts to exchange, complained about me, an almost excellent student and favorite of the teaching staff, a Russian language teacher. Upon learning of this, I immediately went to my mother to confess in order to reduce the degree of scandal that could erupt right in the teacher's room, because my mother worked at the same school as a music teacher.

Parents immediately demanded a supply of photographs. Gaining time by getting them from a hiding place outside the apartment, I was able to sort: oral play and group scenes were mercilessly thrown out so as not to shock parents, leaving only hairy pussy - there were no others, however, in those days.

The younger friend got burned on stupidity, hiding a small part of the collection. A few months later, on another family holiday, his parents decided to show the guests a diplomat that was intended as a gift for his son on successful ending school year. A friend, of course, did not find anything better than to hide photos in it.

He did not come to school for another week after this incident, and he never admitted to me what exactly his punishment was.

German KlimenkoMediametrics and Liveinternet, Advisor to the President of the Russian Federation

From the fifth grade I solved math tests for 15 kopecks.

In the eighth grade, for several months (then those who wished ended) I earned dimensionless tic-tac-toe. The occupied cells were considered, and this was a win in kopecks.

Evgeny GordeevRussian Ventures

I earned my first money by creating an advertisement for plastic windows in the Extra-M newspaper. After spending about two months, I received $350 for a 10x15 cm model, although we initially agreed on $500. It was 1996, and a year later I was already into websites.

Mikhail Vinogradov"Taxilet"

My brother and I drew a poster "No smoking, a fine of 100 rubles", hung it in the country, at the entrance to the site. After about forty minutes, a neighbor fell into the trap - Uncle Valera. He was a good man, and he reacted to the administrative penalty with enthusiasm.

100 rubles was quite a significant loot. Then there was not much to spend on, and it seems to me that it was the same banknote that I had preserved. Grandfather was the second to run into a fine, but he was released in peace because of the administrative resource - dad stood up for him and heaped on us for illegal business activities.

Sergei BaryshnikovBigpicture.com

He earned his first money on Novy Arbat in a tent near Melodiya, selling cassettes with Mirage and Shufutinsky. I worked for three days and thought that I was fabulously rich, until the owner of the tent came and did an inventory, after which I worked for another month for free.

Daniil PavlyuchkovMailburn

I made my first money selling caps and Magic: The Gathering cards at school that I won in tournaments.

There is also the first adult job, in Casa Spb, I began to buy an Internet separate from my parents. In those days, these were still modem cards, as I remember now, Russia OnLine, 50 hours from free internet from two in the morning to eight in the morning.

And then there is the first IT salary, I bought a bed at Ikea with it. It was one of my best purchases ever.

Andrey GrigorievGetShopApp

I earned my first money at about 6-8 years old (I don’t remember how long ago). There was a fire hydrant next to the house. Now for some reason they were dismantled everywhere in Moscow. Around this hydrant, all the children of our one-entrance house organized a car wash.

When the driver drove up, we all the kids attacked the car. I washed wheels and rims because I was the smallest and earned the least. But somehow he persuaded a passing cyclist to wash his bike and even sneakers in one person.

I don’t remember what the price was for the sink, but in two days of work I earned a block of Turbo chewing gum. In principle, only the purchase of the coveted block motivated me to work then.

Maria PodlesnovaRusbase

I received my first money as a grant from the city EARLY (or what they used to call it?) for the fact that in the 9th grade (not without the help of a teacher) I wrote and defended a work in English about the causes of tolerance (attention!) of the Belarusian people. Won first place.

The meaning of the work was that in the territory of modern Belarus in its entire history, the maximum number of different religions accepted by the people was known, and as a “result” - the people got used to it and became the most tolerant in the world.

Now it sounds both funny and naive, and I definitely won’t be able to repeat the same thing in English. As a result, I received at that time (as I remember now) 18 thousand Belarusian rubles and spent them on a Venus razor (well, I really wanted it for myself). True, at home I disappointed my parents by the fact that with the first money I “did not even buy a chocolate bar for the family.” I was ashamed. But I was with a razor.

Alexey ByrdinCEO of the Internet Video Association

I was 14 years old. At the entrance to the Pushkin Museum (GMII) I sold deluxe editions of the collected works of A. S. Pushkin - as I remember now, 55 (thousand?) Rubles, of which 5 (thousand?) were mine.

Mostly foreigners bought, so English from the special school greatly contributed.

Vitaly RyzhkovPICR

I earned my first money at the age of 13. At that time I lived in Baku and studied in the seventh grade. Studying was easy for me, but I hated school as much as I could. Perhaps partly from the fact that he was one of the oldest in the class, and constantly blamed my mother for sending me to study a year later, justifying this by saying that she wanted me to rest more.

From about the age of eight, every summer I went for a whole day with my father in carpentry shop where he worked alongside his brothers. There I enjoyed spending time, helping in any way I could, and also played with puppies and kittens. The next summer, when I was 13 years old, I used to spend time in the workshop, where I was very interested in woodcarving, which was very popular in Azerbaijan. Everything that is made of wood must be covered with carvings, otherwise nothing.

A local guy in his 30s, named Eldar, agreed to take me as a student for the whole summer, and from the beginning of the summer he began to exploit child labor, forcing me to do dirty work instead of teaching something. He explained this to me by the fact that in the beginning I must learn to “skin”, and everything else later.

Almost all summer I "skinned" and peeped at how it works. At the end of the summer, an acquaintance of our family, Andrey, who also did carpentry, asked me if I wanted to try my hand as a carver for one of his orders and suggested that I come to check it out.

Surprisingly, I passed the test, although I had zero experience. Received an order worth $300 and set to work. It was 95 years old. I finished the order pretty quickly, in less than three weeks. I earned money, but I did not have time to see them. Andrei carefully handed them over to my father, who "unfastened" me $20. I wanted more, but even $20 was a lot of money at the time.

Since about 1980, my classmate and I “repeatedly, as part of an organized group, bought up and then sold for profit” second-hand books.

You will laugh, but it was especially good to make money if you bought the complete works of V. I. Lenin for 10 rubles in some orthodox family of indigenous communists and handed it over to the store for 100 rubles.

In 2000, I entered the institute, learned how to search for information on the Internet. I learned about the classifieds market in the “From hand to hand” format. My friends and I thought about how to combine this, and began to submit paid ads to the newspaper: "Search for information on the Internet."

The market turned out to be so good that it made it possible to maintain (experiment) your own web design studio (rent and paid and quite expensive Internet at that time).

What we did. We drove into the search the query that customers requested from us, and printed the landing pages from the search results.

I was 5-6 years old. We lived in a hostel. Then the ultimate dream of any child was the game of Tetris. So my parents gave me this toy for some holiday. When I myself played enough of it, I began to rent out Tetris to the neighborhood kids. The payment was sweets, batteries (there were no batteries then, and everything worked on batteries), and, of course, money.

Later, at the age of 8, the guys and I were washing cars at garages, and at the age of 9 I was selling newspapers near the subway. A tray with newspapers stood at the exit of the metro, but I bought several newspapers and began to sell them a little more expensive, but at the entrance to the metro. For trade in newspapers, by the way, got me and my parents. Then it was called "speculation". Therefore, the newspaper "business" did not last very long, but it was very profitable.

I spent the first money on imported chocolates: Mars, Snickers and M&M's.

Approximately in the 6th-7th grade, I bought round plastic badges with Cheburashka for 15 kopecks at the Soyuzpechat kiosk, took out Cheburashka from there and inserted pictures of Modern Talking, sold it to girls at school for 3 rubles. Margin 1900%.

Evgeny Cheskidov

If you do not take into account all sorts of one-time earnings “I dug up a plot for a neighbor - I got money for a chocolate bar”, then I earned the first serious money at the age of 14.

At that time I strongly dreamed about my computer (I was already tired of begging for computer time from friends), even an average Pentium III configuration cost about three average salaries in the city, so, of course, I could only dream.

At school, before going on vacation, they said that those who are 14 years old can go to the local house management, there are vacancies for schoolchildren, they will be issued part-time according to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. I was the only one from the entire school.

They gave me a brand new gas trimmer and said "you will be a lawn mower." In the morning they gave out 10 liters of gasoline and named the streets where the grass needed to be cut. Salary 1720 rubles, as I remember now. Not so chocolatey. But the buzz was that they controlled only the execution of the work, and no one demanded to hand over the trimmer at the end of the day to the warehouse. At the same time, KPIs were set sparingly, you can do everything in half a day.

On the first day, I came to the store manager at noon to say that I had done everything. He’s like this to me: “What are you doing, go shack somewhere, just don’t ***** [steal] gasoline from the warehouse.” Then, in one minute, an epiphany came and a business model was born.

I had “almost my own” trimmer and a lot of free time. I bought a fishing line, a can of gasoline, oil for my own money. I pasted several ads around the city "mowing grass inexpensively." And he began to wait.

The demand for the service exceeded all my expectations. It turned out that in our poor provincial town a lot of uncles wanted to have a beautiful and trimmed lawn in their richly furnished dachas. At the same time, they paid without skimping on money, left for a tip, many started heartfelt conversations, said something like “well done, kid, I also plowed at school, there wasn’t enough for grub, and now I’ve risen” (this was the motivation for 80 level).

Almost every evening I had somewhere to go with my petrol friend. And almost every evening, going home late at night with a trimmer at the ready and with a five-pointer in my pocket, I felt like an oligarch who could afford everything.

At the end of the summer, I bought an almost top-end Pentium IV configuration. He quit, handed over his gold-bearing trimmer to the warehouse manager and thanked him with cigarettes and cognac. And in work book now flaunts the first entry "accepted to the position of cleaner of the territory."

Dmitry Gordeev

I earned my first money when I was about 10-12 years old, I don’t remember exactly - my father hired me for his production, where I worked on the manufacture of plaster moldings. I did this intermittently until the age of 17, until I entered the university.

The last similar project I worked on was stucco molding for the restored Kazan City Hall. All stucco on the facade and in the interiors, including the most difficult to manufacture fluted columns with entasis and the coat of arms, is our work. I'm still very proud of her!

I spent the money on a HP hx4700 PDA, a Canon DSLR, lenses and a monthly trip Kazan-Prague-Barcelona-Paris-Kazan in a Niva car.

Pyotr TatishchevEcamb

It seems to me that I earned the first money by lessons. in English. In the 9th grade. And, even before that, we created a company that developed programs for BC computers, printed 10 shares and sold them to relatives. So I made an IPO even before I earned the first money. In my opinion, now any startup dreams of it.

Alexey AmetovLook At Media

I earned my first money at the age of 12-13, delivering invitations to some elections in 1996. Then I tried to hand over waste paper and non-ferrous metal, unload trucks, wash cars and much more of varying degrees of legality. But most of all I liked getting royalties from the newspaper. For the first time it happened in 98, I was 14 years old.

Dmitry KhomakLurkmore

I received my first money, as it is now fashionable to write, at the age of 17, for helping to open a gaming (not gambling!) club on Yugo-Zapadnaya and for participating in organizing a Quake championship dedicated to the opening of this very club.

The club was either the fourth or the fifth place in Moscow where you could go in and cut yourself into - no, not Contra, but Quake. First and second. There were "Orks", there was this one, like him, on Kursk. There was also some kind of “Pervoklub”, quite legendary, which I did not get to. Nirvana and everything else was strong later.

In the meantime - a club on the South-West. 1998 August. I was paid some money that turned to dust at default. We spent them on beer, which we drank with my classmates from Lyubertsy, on Panka's platform, among the garages. Everything has risen in price, but the booze has not yet. With other money I was lucky and lucky about the same.

Nikolai Kononov"Company's secret"

I made my first money selling popsicles - with a hell of a margin, on the sidewalk, insolently, next to the kiosk where we bought a box of this ice cream, at 68 Prospekt Mira. The ideologists were Russian scouts Nikolai Epple and Roman Kuzmin.

Kirill Zabelin stood on the nix and during the invasion of the bandits after the replica "Call the thug!" I had to rush to the subway and call the police. And I yelled "delicious ice cream" and pestered passers-by. We bought everything in an hour - obviously out of sympathy.

We threw out the box, got into a trolley bus and went to the sports store on Alekseevskaya for the most fashionable backpacks. Some Soviet factory was rebuilt under capitalism and produced hybrids with straps, like an army duffel bag, while the backpacks themselves were concisely black, had one chrome buckle. I pinned a Nirvana patch on mine, a rare one from Germany, then fought an urla with it, and one day I accidentally knocked the perfume inside. 1994 Russian scouts punked.

Askar Rakhimberdiev"My Warehouse"

Despite the fact that at school I was a nerd and a geek, I earned my first money quite early. In 1989, a fair format appeared in Moscow - during the event, you could come to a special site and sell any garbage for free in any free stall (you didn’t have to pay any taxes).

At that time, a lot of extra guppies divorced in my aquarium. I planted them in a liter jar and went to the fair in southern Medvedkovo. In my opinion, I sold everyone and at the age of 13 earned about two rubles.

As a normal geek, I bought something like the “Ham Radio Handbook” and the most fashionable field-effect transistors on them (then it was still quite far from computers). There will be no conclusions - the next first money I earned only at the age of 18 in the editorial office of Kommersant, but that was a completely different story.

Yuri SynodovRoem.ru

I earned my first money in production high-tech products with a huge added value - soldering RCA cables from the kit. How much the kit cost, I guessed (it was sold by weight), how much I got - I knew how much the cable cost - I saw in tents.

Mikhail LisnyakZenRus

Everyone writes, and I will write. I earned my first money (as much as 10 rubles) in the 90th year, acting in the extras of Yeralash. Somewhere here at the beginning - he was sitting on the fence. A piece with a falling grid with eggs was shot in five takes. The eggs were not changed.

A new way to earn a lot of money. Earn fast. Virtually no start-up capital. Find out how a simple guy from a small town did it and repeat his success!

How I made $45,000 from scratch in one summer month

Welcome all!

How it all started

So, last summer I visited friends in the Moscow region. We went to swim on the beach of the nearest boarding house. It was there that I first saw these awesome things: Walking ball, Exercise machine and Scooter ( on right), which later turned out to be for me a goose that lays golden eggs. They were rented out to vacationers there. When you first see how people ride them, the spectacle, I tell you, is really cool. In general, I also tried all these devices in action and quickly got hooked on them: the fun turned out to be just awesome.

I myself live in Ukraine, in Feodosia, so we have the most profitable business , as in any resort town - these are water and beach activities. The variety, of course, is quite large here, but no one in Crimea had such cool cars! I immediately figured out what was happening, calculated the approximate revenue for the day and decided start business On this.

In general, in a couple of days I come to the director of the boarding house, find out the supplier’s phone number from him, borrow money from friends, take a few of these things for testing, come home, agree with one friend (who keeps jet skis and catamarans on the local beach) and start “ bomb" vacationers. People immediately liked the novelties, because all these boats, catamarans, bananas, parachutes have become boring for a long time, but here it is: In general, own business went quickly.

Counting money

One-time costs:

Walking ball (2 pieces) - $ 4100, Scooter (2 pieces) - $ 2700, Exercise machine (3 pieces of different sizes) - $ 1500. Total: $8500 including delivery from Moscow.

Revenue:

For 10 minutes of renting a Walking Ball and a Scooter, I took 50 hryvnias ($ 10), for the Simulator half as much - 25 hryvnias for 10 minutes. The structure of the daily income was as follows: The walking ball and the Scooter brought me an average of $ 300-350 in income, and each Simulator was about $ 100. The total revenue is approximately $1,500 per day. I gave 20% of the income to the owner of the point, and I was left with about $ 1200 daily. In general, in a few days all the money invested fully paid off.

Interesting business idea!

It was possible to develop this profitable business further, but I did it my own way: I did not create a network own items rental, because I thought it would be difficult to control many points. I took a different path - I agreed with boarding houses, rest houses, private distributors, etc., so that they would rent these cars from me and operate them themselves. As a result of these negotiations, I received several good orders, moreover, some clients agreed to make an advance payment and I decided to take a more serious loan and expand profitable business. My second purchase was as follows: Walking ball 12 pcs, Scooter 10 pcs, Exercise machine 20 pcs., and suppliers gave me good discount, and my costs this time were about $ 38,000, including shipping. For renting a Walking Ball and a Scooter, I took only 250 hryvnias ($50) per day, and for a Trainer, 100 hryvnias ($20). The total rental income was $ 1,500 per day + $ 1,200 was brought to me by the first rental point. As a result, after 2 weeks, I again returned all the money invested, distributed debts, and began<стричь купоны>especially without stress.

But that's not all! In a conspicuous place of each typewriter, I stuck bright stickers where I wrote:<Хотите купить эту новинку? Звоните!>and gave me his phone number. Vacationers (who rented these things) began to call me and buy them! So I had to create a small inventory for resale.

Summing up

In total, over the past season, I<поднял>From this new business about $130,000 : I'm going to work with others this year resort towns in the Crimea according to the same scheme.

The only problem is that at sea with a wave of more than three points, it is almost impossible to ride a Walking Ball and a Scooter. So best option for this successful business - calm reservoirs (ponds, lakes, reservoirs, etc.). By the way, it has been verified: balloon riding The pleasure balloon gathers huge crowds of onlookers, so the queue of those wishing to ride is guaranteed.

I give you one more small business idea: The walking ball can be operated without any reservoir at all - in an inflatable or frame pool! That is, in almost any crowded place: in parks, squares, recreation areas, children's camps - anywhere, even in shopping malls! Moreover, indoor facilities can be used all year round. much money hack!

And one more piece of advice for anyone earn fast on the Simulator: it is still more profitable to resell them than to rent them. They are actively bought up by young people, teenagers, skateboarders and other extreme people there.

In general, from a small small business ideas I'm starting to see a profitable business.

Even more money in winter!

Of course, all this is good, but only for the summer months ... but what do you do in winter? In this sense, I was not lucky - there is practically no winter in Crimea. But for those who live in regions with normal snowy winters, very decent money can be earned on a Bicycle. This is a total blast! You have to come up with this: a winter bike on a caterpillar and with a ski! The history of its success in the field opening a case I was told by Andrey Panin from the city of Ostashkov, Tver region, who earned about $ 80,000 on the Bicycle in one winter season. He is convinced that in this region it is best business.

Acting according to my plan, he started his own business:

1) Received from the supplier the exclusive right to sell Bicycles in the Tver region (this is important so that there are no competitors);

2) Organized 9 rental points in Tver and nearby regional centers (2-3 bicycles at each point: parks, recreation areas, etc.). For rent, he took 15 rubles. per minute of riding. On average, one bike brought him about 2,000 rubles. in a day. Those. The payback period for each Bicycle was about 20 days. Average revenue (from all points) 40,000 rubles. in a day.

3) According to my example of reference own business Andrey also made stickers for bicycles that he rented, where he indicated his coordinates, so that anyone could buy a Bicycle from him for personal use. In addition, he worked very actively with local recreation facilities: tourist centers, boarding houses, etc., who also very willingly bought this novelty to entertain their vacationers.

But his own findings, which he shared with those who wish start a business:

4) Andrey very successfully used the pre-New Year's hype (when everything really sells out!) and spent advertising campaign under the motto "The most cool gift chief." Two students hired by him called about a thousand commercial firms, enterprises and municipal structures, suggesting that employees do original gift to their superiors. Since the Bicycle is a truly original novelty for recreation and sports, which is not a shame to give even to the wealthiest person, many agreed and made orders, which gave Andrey the opportunity make a lot of money on this stock.

5) Another niche that Andrey used as an additional way to earn are fans of the regular bike. After all, winter has always been a dead season for them, and now everyone has a great opportunity to ride all year round! He collected the largest number of orders from the cycling sections - both from professionals and from amateurs.

In total, he sold about 200 bikes last season, which brought him $45,000. net profit, plus he earned about $ 90 thousand. from the rental ... In my opinion, not bad at all for an ordinary kid from a provincial town who decided create a business!

Important advice to anyone who wants to break out of poverty:

Don't be afraid to repeat my success! Everything will work out for you, as happened with many of the most different people from Ukraine, Russia and other CIS countries! I was generally an amateur, business from scratch started, without any prompts, poked around like a kitten, embodying new business ideas! And now you have detailed instructions is: chewed everything to the smallest detail. All you have to do is buy a shovel to raise money. Even if you consider yourself lazy, stupid and unlucky, and do everything five times worse than me, you will still have very decent money.

And remember the most important thing: as I said at the very beginning, the main highlight of this profitable business- absolute novelty, originality, entertainment and the complete absence of competitors. And this means that only complete and hopeless cretins will not achieve success here. For some reason I'm sure you're not one of them...

I wish you all good luck!

Igor Shevchuk

P.S. Recently, I have been bothered by the same question: why did I tell and explain everything in such detail meaning of new small business idea: sometimes it comes to insults like whether I'm an idiot to produce competitors, etc.

So, so that no one else is loaded with such thoughts, I declare: it was a regular deal. The Rosimport company, from which I purchased all these products, asked me to describe in detail, using specific examples and figures, the technology of my wealth (to give people a living example, so to speak), and for this I asked for the exclusive right to sell to the whole Crimea (so that they the most competitors at my side did not start). In the end, everyone was satisfied. I hope you too...
