💸 What was your top-earning income stream in 2023? Let me know in the comments!
Love love this! Thanks for sharing always love your honesty and videos do inspiring. Plus not everything is about money and it’s nice to see you doing this ❤
aw thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment, it really means the world to me! ❤️ it's not always easy when other people seem to be always growing and always hitting new milestones but all in all we're all on our own paths and are where we're meant to be! 💕
Your cute little nervous giggle when discussing how May income went was SO RELATABLE!!!! I do that every single January and February then again in August. My work is semi seasonal. I’m an artist so my biggest sales happen in the months surrounding Mothers Day and then another big climb leading up to Christmas that begins September. January, February, and August are full of crickets. Selling custom art in the form of Silhouettes is my biggest earner of all time. It’s difficult for me to figure out ways of making auto money in the background of life but I’m brainstorming a tutorial type of e-book for children at the moment.
I’m so glad you took time for yourself this year and that the 18% less didn’t make you sad. I think most everyone took a hit this year. I experienced a 19% drop from last year most of which happened in the first three quarters. I felt it but I was resolved about it knowing it was the state of the 2023 world and not a strike upon my character as an artist. I used the extra time to read more and we also built a house so I’m thankful I had that exciting distraction to partially take my mind off less income.
Thank you for all you do here on UA-cam, Austen!
hi thank you so much for watching and for sharing your thoughts!! Yes, the month of May had me like "what the heck is going on here??" but we made it through! I love hearing about your seasonal business. I definitely think an e-book could be a great source of passive income for you! I have a few videos on my channel about digital products if you search them with my name, maybe some of those can help inspire your e-book! Thank you for also sharing your overall revenue compared to 2022, that makes me feel less alone for sure! 💕 really appreciate you being here!
Very helpful Austen. Amazing you had such a killer Q4 in the midst of prepping for a wedding! 🤔
Terrific content! Really interesting and you have such an engaging style. Thanks so much, Austen!
aw I'm so glad you thought so! Thank you so much for being here and watching, it means the world to me 💕
I love videos like this, thanks for sharing, Austen! My top earning income stream was technically brand deals, but my affiliate commission was just a few hundred bucks behind, which I was really excited about! But you're right, having a larger audience helps with that (which I do on other platforms). Thanks for always putting out such great content!
Ah hi!! Thank you SO much for watching. That's amazing to hear that you killed it with brand deals in 2023 and affiliates as well! Thank you for confirming that having a larger audience helps with affiliates, it definitely gives me hope with affiliates as my platforms continue to grow. 😇 I've always been a slow and steady grow-er but I'm down to be patient. Hope you have had a great start to the new year!!
Austen you continue to amaze! Thanks for the inspiration & transparency. By far, my #1 income came from ad revenue- a big chunk in 4th quarter.
Shannon I'm so excited for all of your growth here on UA-cam! It looks like you've really hit a stride with the affordable organizational content. Keep up the fantastic work and so excited to hear about ad revenue being the number one! 🥰
Thanks very much for sharing your breakdown so thoroughly, succinctly and transparently. As a new creator also in a niche area, this was incredibly helpful! Shows that even small, dedicated followings can be sustainable.
oh I'm so glad to hear that this helped you and thank you so much for watching! I think niche creators also have an advantage especially when working with brands because if you're an expert in a given area you can charge more for that! If you're looking for more videos like this be sure to check out the Making Money as a Creator playlist over on my channel 💕 appreciate you commenting and being here!
Another awesome and interesting video Austen and I am planning to set up a few income streams including a Etsy store, Amazon store and a website to promote these and other products, services. I already have a Wix account and presently it's the free version but will change that to a paid account because the free version doesn't allow customer payments and ability to sell products and services.
That sounds awesome to hear! For Etsy tips, I definitely recommend subscribing to Alissa Rose here on UA-cam, she's got lots of Etsy tips! ❤️
Bravo! Do you address a start point for the absolute beginner in any of your content?
ah thank you so much for watching! I do have a playlist called influencer 101 that you might like, I tried to add a variety of videos to it depending on what you're interested in so hopefully there are some videos in there that can help you 😇 bit.ly/3S3MaMZ
Where would you recommend getting started with ad revenue?
definitely either here on UA-cam or on a blog! For both it usually takes at least 6 months to qualify for either the UA-cam partner program or a blog ad network but once you're in, you can start earning money on all of your old blog posts and/or videos as well which is major! 💕 hope this helps.
