- $100,000+ affiliate revenue from 1 video
Passive income expert Pat Flynn recently rated 10 popular passive income ideas 💰
His top two…
- YouTube – Score: 9/10
- Affiliate Marketing – Score: 10/10
Pat has a Pokemon YouTube channel which earns him “a five-figure monthly income”…
It’s not totally passive, though. Pat still spends about a day and a half a week working on it. But the thing is, the content is evergreen. One video he shot in 2022 has pulled in over $100k in ad revenue—just one video.
🤑 On the affiliate marketing side of things…
Pat shared a great example: he created a YouTube tutorial on how to use Descript, dropped his affiliate link, and that one video has now brought in over $100k in commissions. Still earning, years later…
Same goes for tools like Canva, Kit, or any software with recurring plans — people sign up once, and you keep getting paid.
Helped of course that Pat had a well established YouTube channel to post that Descript video on.
But small channels can earn good money this way, too 👇
