These are the top five tips to get riches from somebody who's actually done it. One, build a personal brand. People buy from people, not logos. Your face, your name, your story is the single most underrated asset you own, and you're sitting on it doing nothing. Two, have something to actually sell. Don't be an influencer with a huge audience and no clue how to turn it into money.

Be a business owner who just happens to use social media as the storefront. Three, learn to sell. Selling isn't embarrassing. Being broke is embarrassing. Say clearly why the thing you built is worth it. Ask for the money, and then shut up. Four, charge more than feels comfortable. Cheap prices attract cheap customers who complain the most and pay the least.

Price for the person who needs a real solution and will pay whatever it takes to get it. 5. Start now. Today. Ugly. You will never feel ready. Ready is a feeling that shows up years after you begin, if you begin at all. The people getting rich aren't smarter than you. They just stopped waiting to feel qualified and started before the fear wore off.
