[00:01] from scratch and I don't have any money to start with.  What would I do in this case?  Esto es una de las preguntas más difíciles que tengo de contestar, pero creo que tengo una respuesta bastante precisa o la más precisa que he llegado a a
[00:13] conseguir y voy a dar los pasos en este vídeo para decirte lo que haría si tuviera que empezar desde cero y sin dinero.  And let's make it even harder, I want to start from home and I don't want to travel.  I would think of three things.  One would
[00:26] separate a short-term plan from a long-term plan, even if I plan to sell on Amazon in the future or start a brand of physical products because that's what I like or whatever or any kind of business that requires
[00:39] investment, I have to rule this out for the moment and leave it for the long term because right now what I need is money and relatively quickly.  So, second, I would start by focusing on a short-term plan with the goal of making
[00:54] money, that is, starting to deposit money into the bank.  To get money in the short term, I can think of two things.  Getting a from home, is possible.  Now I'm going to explain the options.  Or B is a
[01:10] service business where you don't sell any physical products, therefore there are no costs and you can offer a service to other people or companies and that's it .  You only receive money, but you have no expenses.  Y tres, tengo que empezar
[01:23] a generar ingresos ya a corto plazo y si me decido por el negocio de servicios, me decidiría seguramente por un negocio de servicios B2B, es decir, a otras empresas, no al público en general. So, I would look for a sector where there is
[01:38] n't much competition and it wouldn't be too difficult for me to get clients.  Well, with the money I generate in the short term, I would decide whether to scale up the service business.  For example, I take this mini service agency that
[01:52] this mini service agency that is currently billing €7,000 per month, or I see.  But right now what I need is money, or with the money I'm in products to launch on Amazon or start a brand
[02:08] somehow, and I have another kind of plan, but in any case, both scaling and creating a product brand, I think, is a more long-term plan, and we have to focus on a business right now that does n't have expenses and that generates
[02:20] income for us.  And why do I say services? Because, to generate income in the short term, the only options I can think of are services or a job.  If I train in something, for example, that few people know and that is in demand, there are people who
[02:34] specific problem, in this case a company that is going to pay us to do it, then I can either work for them remotely solving a problem for them, that is, they put me on the payroll, or I have an agency and they hire me as an external contractor
[02:49] to solve whatever they want to solve.  And two, it's a business that doesn't require investment, has no risk, and you can try it as many times as you want.  No es que lances un producto y ya te has quedado sin dinero
[03:04] porque has invertido o lo que sea, no, no has invertido nada, puedes intentarlo una y otra vez, puedes pivotar, lo que sea y no tiene gastos.  In other words, even if sea y no tiene gastos.  In other words, even if you start and begin to have success or
[03:16] start to get clients or activity, for the moment, if you don't hire anyone, you do n't have expenses.  You have no stock costs, no advertising costs, no expenses for anything.  Y también en este caso no necesitas
[03:29] decenas, cientos, miles de clientes para ganar mucho dinero, como por ejemplo en en e-commerce o en Amazon o en otras cosas o en servicios para el público final que tiene que tener un ticket más bajo, sino que necesitas uno o dos
[03:41] clientes para tener para ganar más dinero que que un médico, por ejemplo, ¿no?  If you have two clients who pay you € 2000 or €2000 per month, then you have an income of €4000 practically net every month.  Esto puede ser llevar
[03:55] cuentas de Amazon, crear tiendas online, llevar las redes sociales, crear contenido con IA, email marketing, eh crearle embudos de ventas, automatizaciones, 1000 cosas.  We, for example, teach how to manage
[04:09] Amazon accounts for third parties and how to do it, well, I tell you, from home.  El otro día un alumno me dijo que había cerrado tres clientes en una semana yendo a full, contactando con gente y tres clientes ya si llevas tres cuentas
[04:23] de Amazon te puede dar un dineral.  I'm not saying it has to be this service, but it's something we know there's no competition for.  Very few people know how to manage Amazon accounts, and it's something many sellers need.
[04:36] There are millions of sellers in the world who know practically nothing about Amazon, and if you learn how to do it, you can keep accounts, for example.  And I said before that I wouldn't spend money on advertising because I
[04:49] basically don't have any, but what I would do, for example, is create a clients on LinkedIn by contacting or creating content, creating content on other social networks, responding to comments on videos on other
[05:03] social networks or content in general on other social networks where someone asks for an opinion on something.  It can be done this way, it can also be by sending emails, you get contacts from companies through Amazon, for example, they are
[05:16] obliged to provide the contact information.  You go there , find their contact information, send them an email or call them, and say, "Hey, I saw that your listing has... well, it has this problem, this other problem, this other problem, and this, and this, and this, and this.
[05:30] It could be improved. I'm sending you this report, and if you're interested in working with us, contact us." And you already have a client, you have n't spent anything on advertising, you close two or three deals, and you already have a good monthly income to
[05:43] learn whatever you decide to do—online stores, Amazon, email marketing, or anything else. I'd recommend enrolling in a training program, if you can afford it, where they have a community or support, where
[05:56] you can ask the instructors questions and so on. We have something like that, but it's not just about e-commerce, but also Amazon. It's any kind of training program, as long as it interested in something else and Amazon isn't your thing , look for a training program where
[06:12] , for example, when you close a client with the agency, you can go there and...  Rely on mentors or whatever, because otherwise you won't know and some very bad ones, so look for a good one that includes support. Or,
[06:27] if you don't want to spend any money, I would join a forum where people interact and answer questions, where they are experts in the field. I would follow social media accounts of people who are technical, not those who just
[06:40] talk about mindset and, I do n't know, all that sugar-coated stuff on social media, which is what ends up going viral, but very technical, very specific things so you can learn well and offer a good service. And if
[06:53] possible, if possible, try to practice, for example, whenever you has an Amazon account, say, "Hey, let me in, give me just enough access so I can run an advertising campaign for you," and so on, and you've learned something. Or if you want to
[07:09] learn how to make online stores, create a Shopify account, pay $9 or Whatever the most basic plan costs. I've paid 2,500 a month, so the basic plan is very cheap. You sign up and create the store, ta-da, you practice and you already
[07:21] know how to make online stores or email marketing, you practice, you get the hang of it , do it for someone for free, whatever, for a few days, weeks, until you master it and then you 're ready to get some
[07:34] We, for example, in the program— and I want to emphasize that it doesn't have to be exactly like this, there are many examples and if I think of any I'll leave them below in the comments or anywhere—but in the program we have 10 students each month
[07:47] who start internships and manage real Amazon accounts and gain experience so they can then manage accounts on their own or sometimes get hired by an agency we know or something , right? But, I mean, it's a matter of
[08:01] getting well informed, paying or not, however you can. This doesn't depend much on you. What you do need to be careful about is not paying for a course.  muy caro, porque si no tienes dinero tiene que ser asequible. Buscar alguna comunidad interesante, si puedes
[08:15] practicar y si no pues con el primer cliente ya practicarás y para adelante. Y digo esto porque sería muy romántico decir, "Sí, empezaría otra vez un una marca en Amazon, como hice al principio y no sé qué, pero yo al principio tenía
[08:29] un dinero para empezar.  I didn't have much, I mean, I was just getting by, but I started on Amazon with money, investing, placing a product order, it arrived, I sent it to Amazon, and I started an advertising campaign. I didn't spend that much money
[08:43] because at that time I didn't have that much money, as I said, and I started selling, well, 7, 10, 11 units a day, but there were expenses, I had to pay, I had to pay for the stock, Amazon's fees , the PPC, so if you don't have
[08:58] any money, I'm telling you, you can't do something like that.  Another reason is that business selling physical products. Even if you sell from day one and do well on Amazon or whatever, you need time to do all that: contact
[09:13] the supplier, ask for samples, find the product, launch it, wait for it to gain traction and reach the top positions, start selling, and then selling.  In other words, it's a rather long process, and if you don't have the time or
[09:27] type of business.  And this is basically what I would do.  I hope the video is helpful. If you have any questions about starting a business, leave them in the comments. If someone you know wants to start a business, share this video with them.  And that's it,
[09:41] see you next week, I'll be doing some live streams here on the channel.  Just hit the bell icon to be notified when I'm live, and that's it. notified when I'm live, and that's it. See you.  Yeah.
