The creator shares strategies for earning $3000-$5000 per month using referral systems like Revenue Share and CPA, focusing on targeted niches rather than mass subscribers. ### Key Points - **Monetization Challenge** [00:01] — Large audiences don't guarantee high earnings; a 100k subscriber news channel earned only a few thousand dollars, mostly reinvested. - **Two Monetization Paths** [01:35] — Work with other people's projects via referrals (Revenue Share or CPA) or create your own product. Referrals are simpler. - **Revenue Share Explained** [02:04] — Revenue Share means earning a percentage of client payments. Example: VPN service with 20% rev share on $10/month gives $2/client/month. - **Casino Revenue Share** [02:58] — Casinos often use rev share, paying 50% of losses. Warning: be cautious when registering on such platforms. - **Crypto Exchange Revenue Share** [03:40] — Crypto exchanges share trading commissions. More complex than casinos but legitimate. - **CPA Model** [04:33] — CPA (Cost Per Action) pays a flat fee per purchase. Example: $20 CPA on a $100 product. One-time payment, unlike recurring rev share. - **CPA Platforms** [05:46] — Websites like Traffic Lite host offers. You can filter by country and category to find suitable products. - **Funnel Strategy** [06:52] — Use a Telegram channel as a funnel. Cold traffic rarely buys immediately; guide them through engaging content, education, lead magnet, and sales. - **Engaging Content First** [07:48] — Start with engaging, non-salesy content to attract attention. Educational content builds trust and interest. - **Educational Content** [09:13] — For crypto, create videos explaining charts, cryptocurrencies, and exchanges. Educate before selling. - **FOMO and Lead Magnet** [09:49] — Create fear of missing out (FOMO) and offer a free lead magnet (guide, lesson) to increase engagement. - **Manager and Warm-up** [10:41] — A manager helps with registration and deposit. Continuous warm-up keeps clients trading, maximizing rev share income. - **Physical Product Funnel** [11:34] — Similar funnel: engaging content, educational format, Telegram channel with reviews, lead magnet, sales video, then purchase. ### Conclusion Monetizing Telegram channels effectively requires a strategic funnel with engaging and educational content, leading to referrals or product sales. Focusing on a niche audience and using revenue share can generate consistent passive income. ## Transcript daily to your Telegram channel, but without proper monetization, you won't be able to make money from it. Today we'll explore how you can monetize your huge audience and earn some serious cash. My name is Mikhail. I've been working with Telegram, traffic, and internet marketing for over 3 years now. And now my main focus is creating small Telegram channels with a target audience that doesn't require huge investments in advertising or promotion, and that earn money through a well-designed system and well- structured monetization. Today we'll talk about how to monetize such small channels. For this purpose, I have prepared a presentation The first thing I would like to draw attention to is that huge views, a huge number of applications, a huge number of subscribers do not guarantee us money. I used to have large Telegram channels on news topics, with audiences reaching almost 100,000, but despite such a only managed to earn a couple of thousand there. And a large portion of these earnings went towards reinvestment in order to maintain the same rate of channel growth, to maintain the same reach and sell advertising at the same price. Therefore, there is no point in chasing after some huge audience. It's better to choose a niche target audience that will bring you a steady income and work with them for a high fee. Actually, now we’ll look at what Actually, now we’ll look at what talked about what topics we could have , then you already know that we essentially have two paths. This means working with other people's projects and receiving referral payments from them, so to speak, or working with your own product. because this direction is much simpler. Here we don’t need to invent anything, develop anything. And as you remember, I told you that we have two payment systems here. These are Revenue Share and CPA. Let's actually talk in more detail now about how these two payment systems work. Let's start with Renue Share. And in translation from English, Revenue is not income, but earnings. The revenue is generated. And the company we bring clients to shares the revenue from that client with us. Let's say our company sells some online services, for example, let's take VPN services, yes, they are very popular now. If we bring 100 clients to this, actually, some service, this company, and these 100 clients subscribe, for example, pay this company 10 dollars a month, and we have revifare, yes, that is, revenue share, our percentage there is 20%, yes, hypothetically, then we will simply receive 2 dollars from each client, yes, that is, he paid the company 10, we get 20% of, actually, what he paid 2 dollars. We brought in 100 of these clients, and in a month we get 200 dollars just from these 100 clients. Probably the most popular area where this Rifshare system is most widespread in our country is the casino and gambling industry . And in simple terms, everything works the same here . That is, if a friend introduced you to, say, OneWN, or some similar platform, you deposited $100 there, played with it, spent those $100, didn’t win anything, didn’t withdraw anything, then your friend would receive a measly 50% of your losses. That is, he will get 50 dollars for himself. So, register on such platforms, be careful. But we also have completely white, adequate topics, completely white, adequate niches, in which a very similar system operates, only it is structured a little more complexly. For example, these are crypto exchanges or any other exchanges where you can trade certain assets, yes, that is, cryptocurrency, stocks, and some other things, and other things. But this is done most easily with cryptocurrency, because it is probably the easiest entry threshold for someone who wants to somehow invest their funds. And you can also work with some exchange, which share, yes, that is, this percentage of the profit. But on crypto exchanges, it works a little more complicated, because in a casino, the main goal is for a person to lose, while a crypto exchange is simply an aggregator, just a terminal, so to speak, that allows a person to work, to interact with some kind of market. And, in fact, these exchanges mainly make money simply from commissions, from trading commissions. And they share this percentage with you too. We also have a payment system called CPA. Ah, and here we have everything that is connected with some goods, with some physical products. And it stands for cost, that is, payment for some action, well, most often for a purchase. How does it work? You attract a customer, they make a purchase, and you get paid a flat rate for making that purchase. Let 's say, if a person buys, well, I don't know, some points, for example, for $100, you have a CPA rate of $20 and you get $20 from it. It doesn't matter anymore, people will continue to buy some other items, some other things , I don't know, accessories from this store or not, you That is, you essentially have a one-time payment from these clients. That's why I prefer to work on a revenue share basis, because here the person brings us income on an ongoing basis. But still, you can also work with CP , and at times it’s even much easier. We have a lot of different websites for such offers, yes, that is, so- called CPA systems. And this is Traffic White, now. So, let's say we have this website Traffic Lite, which hosts various offers. Here we set up some settings for ourselves, yes, for example, which country we want to sell a certain product to, and what category this product should be in. And then we can, in fact, choose any offer that suits us. That is, let’s say we have, well, I don’t know, well, these kind of glasses, for example, right? And if we sell them somewhere in Croatia, well, let's say we do it, we bring in a client from Croatia who pays 35 euros for these glasses, we get a fixed payment of 8 dollars for him. If we, for example, take all this under, ah, this, under our Telegram channel, yes, that is, under our CIS countries, we can simply enter here Russia, Kren, and there Belarus, Kazakhstan, it doesn’t matter, and then conditionally select some subjects here. That is, let's say a person buys himself some kind of set for something, yes, or, I do n't know, well, some goods, and this is how much we will receive from him. Well, now the most important part of this video is how we can get our random client, yes, our random audience, to either register on some exchange, or in some casino, or purchase some product. And, actually, for all this we use, a Telegram channel, which, firstly, will act as our funnel, and a certain system, which I will now show you. The system is that a cold saw some ad, some TikTok, some YouTube video, is unlikely to buy something right away without first looking at the product, without first getting to know the area, the industry, for the interest him. And therefore we need to guide it through a certain funnel. And now let's figure out how it all works. For now, we'll look at the example of crypto exchanges, and a little later I'll look at the example of some ordinary goods, yes, or physical goods, or digital goods of some kind. Let's initially engaging content, thanks to which you will attract your audience. I talked in more detail about the different create them in my previous video about traffic. But here I will explain the key point: if we immediately create some kind of, well, selling content, and immediately start the video with the idea of buying this pen, yes, for example, then the person will simply, well, he will not be interested in it, he will not watch it. And if a person doesn't watch our ad, or on YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram, which we simply publish for free, then the video won't be promoted. Only 200-500 people will see it there , and none of them some cool, engaging will simply keep a large audience's attention. We don't have to get them all to buy, yes, but we just need to keep them engaged so our video gets a stronger start. And the audience that liked this topic, and they began to engage with this content, began to watch something else there, and so that they, actually, well, so that this video would also appear to them. And this is the first point. The second point is that we can engage a person with a more general format and then explain to him what is going on. Therefore, we do not make direct sales like this under any circumstances; educational content, so to speak. So, let's say, using the example of a crypto exchange, we first make a video with some kind of joke, some news about the crypto market, some kind of crypto story, some kind of crypto moment, right? That is, even a person who is not in the know, looked, became interested, and like, what kind of sphere is this? Next, we need to train him, because a person who is not at all aware of what is going on here will not understand what he is buying. We need to create some content that will, well, explain it again using cryptocurrency as an example, how the charts are structured, what cryptocurrencies we have, what exchanges we have, how it's all structured, how it all works. After this, after the educational content, we must place it in some kind of database in which it will receive additional knowledge. And feeling like pho. Fomo is, in English, the fear of missing opportunity, that is, a, the fear of missing out on an opportunity, so that a person, observing the content, understands that while he is simply observing, and not acting, he is missing out on some opportunities. That is, how it transactions, some signals, according to which people work, earn some money, he does not earn, he loses his opportunities. After this, you need to make a certain [music] magnet. A lead magnet is something where a person won't pay anything. He will simply receive some free information, some free, I don’t know, lesson, some free guide. Well, that is, he will get some kind of perk for himself, after which he will be much more involved, so to speak. And after that, you still need to back it up with some results, some reviews, some successful deals, something similar. We also have a magnet sewn up, so to speak, a continuation of this whole movement, right? That is, a person can still get something, but he needs to manager. In fact, this manager makes the sale, that is, in the context of crypto exchanges, he helps you register on the exchange itself and deposit funds there. And after that, there's just additional warm-up, motivation, so that the person doesn't give up on the next week, and doesn't constantly continues trading, so that he himself is interested in it and so that he gets case, we will receive the maximum from one client. It will constantly bring us income thanks to this Renue Share system. and we will constantly make money from it. Now let's quickly look at our application, some kind of physical product, or previous video in more detail, in which I told you about all these areas. Here we have a very similar system. That is, we first create engaging content that shows our product in some way, but again, we do not place a specific emphasis on it. Next, we create some kind of useful educational format, yes, in which we show what our product brings, what it gives. If we sell some English courses, yes, then we show that we can kind of training, yes, that is, some kind of base. Next, we transfer our traffic to a Telegram channel, where people receive additional warm-up in the form of reviews, and all that jazz . Next, in our magnet, something that a person can get a free lesson, a free consultation, or something similar. We're moving it to a post-lead magnet on VSL, that is, to a sales video of some kind of lesson that explains what [music] value a person will receive if they join . And after that, the sale occurs, where, in fact, the person purchases your service. If you've watched this video up to this process of creating your own mini-projects using Telegram and content traffic. And, actually, if you have any such desires, any such ideas, you can fill out the form. There's the top form there, so it means you'll get a free consultation with me. We will discuss your project there and what traffic sources are available for this project. If you don't have any ideas, we can figure out what would suit you best. And, actually, well, you will receive such a free consultation. The link to the questionnaire will be below the video. Again, I don’t accept write to you based on that. Then we agree on a time and call each other. Something like that. Let's stay in touch. Thanks for watching and please touch. Thanks for watching and please subscribe and like.
