Make an instructional video

Do you know how to do something? I'm willing to bet you do. I'm not talking rocket science either, these can be simple things that at least one person needs instruction on. There are many ways to profit from your videos. First, you can create a website that offers subscriptions to view/purchase your videos. This can be tricky as more often than not you will need to somehow be established to get people to actually pay for it. If you have the resources and the talent, this can be a worthwhile option.

YouTube - heard of it? They have a great partner program that will actually pay you for submitting videos. The catch is that people actually have to want to see these videos. You may have to stray from the "instructional genre", but it's all good, be creative. A lot of the partners are just short movies made by complete amateurs. To get started with this, check out http://www.youtube.com/partners

Remember, it can be anything. For example:



Ok, so maybe there are some standards if you want to see any money, but you get the idea. Hopefully you also realize the joke. Until next time....
