Thirty years ago, nobody thought “YouTube strategist” or “Notion template seller” would be real jobs. Now they’re everywhere. The internet flipped the job market upside down, giving creators a way to make money from pixels, not paper.
Why It Works
- Low barriers: Anyone with Wi-Fi can start a business.
- Scalable products: Digital items cost $0 to reproduce.
- Global market: Sell to anyone, anywhere.
- Authenticity sells: People buy from people, not companies.
Real-World Proof
- Ali Abdaal made $4M+ selling productivity courses.
- Gumroad has paid creators over $200M.
- Etsy’s digital downloads category grew 47% year over year.
- Indie game devs on Steam are making six figures from their bedrooms.
