How I Make My Money | #6
Jan 14, 2023Let's get right into it. I'm able to do what I do because I make enough money to put a roof over my head. My biggest income source is product photo/video for food and beverage businesses (Pieta Productions). I work with brands to deliver high-quality content that they can run ads with, post on social, share on their website, etc. These photos make the companies money, so they are willing to pay me for their worth. This is 90-95% of my income. I make money teaching creative business through YouTube, Instagram/TikTok, and affiliate links. YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok all pay me for the views that I get. Compared to my production business, this pays very very little, only a couple hundred a month. Affiliate links in my YouTube videos also give me some cash, but again it's very little at around <$30 a month. My production company is my focus. As time goes on, the Chris Pieta brand will grow and make more money, but right now it's time to be patient and put out good content. I share all of this with you in an effort to be transparent and for you to see how my income is broken down. If you're starting out on this journey, be laser-focused on one of these methods, and pursue that.
