Hi fellow entrepreneurs and wantrepreneurs!
Software developer here, wanting to talk about how I make around $750.00 a month without having to do much work.....
Okay okay, cards on the table. I spent exactly 2 weekends developing/automating processes, so I did actually have to fork out some hours in the beginning to make this relatively passive, roughly 24 consecutive hours.
Here's what I've done in one statement:
I created a platform that provisions, generates and deploys data driven soundboard apps to the Google Play Store. I've added banner and interstitial ads to all apps (this is how I make money).
Yup, that's it. Not very sexy I know, but it all started when I was browsing the Google Play Store for a soundboard and noticed that the app had millions of downloads. I was amazed that there were A LOT of people out there that would download an app that was literally a few buttons that played audio files.
There are tonnes of soundboard apps out there, but the thing I have over everyone else in the Google Play Store is scalability. I can spin up a new soundboard app in about 5 minutes and deploy it live in about 30 minutes. The actual "work" part of this process is gathering sounds for a specific topic e.g. Cat Soundboard or Dog Soundboard.
I currently have 25 apps running live and they're each making around $30.00 per month, hence the $750/month title. The amount I make per month does fluctuate a bit, but it usually does end up being around $750.00, sometimes more, sometimes less. The most I got in a month was $1,300.00.
I know it may be little money to some of you, but it pays some of my bills lol.
What I do now is when something viral happens, I jump on that and source all the audio I can on that thing and create the app for it and deploy it. I can usually get it out by the end of the day.
Even though this is a small win, I just wanted to share one of my ventures with you all.
Happy Hacking Kids!
