Help, What Profitable Digital Skill Can Someone In Their 30s Learn? by champeeon(op): 12:04am On Jan 10, 2022
Hi guys, please I'll appreciate your contributions on this topic.

I'll try to go straight to the point without telling unnecessary stories.

I have a brother who is doing a government job but the pay is so low he could be earning more as a laborer in a construction company. Although he's a graduate, the reason for the low pay is that he was only able to get the job using his secondary school certificate.

Now there is a child and a wife to feed. And because of "job security", I know he'll not want to leave that for something he's not sure if it'll work.

I'm a freelance writer and I know freelancing can give him a better life. However, writing is not his forte. So I want him to learn another digital skill while I put him through how he could get clients.

I know he used to be very creative as a young boy so I'm thinking graphics design. But at the same time, I'm hoping it would be a skill he can pick up and master in just a few months and start earning almost immediately.

I want to make sure I have something solid before I approach him. I'm willing to pay for courses and classes for him to attend and learn more.

If you've made it this far, I believe you have something for him and I'll be glad if you can contribute to this.

Consider affiliate marketing. It's basically helping other people sell their products and getting a commission every time he makes a sale. Since he works, he'd probably not want to do something that's time consuming so affiliate marketing is a good match for him. Also, he can start with only his phone and he can also work for foreign clients if he wishes. Learning time should take about 3-4 weeks after which he can start earning between 20-30k in a week even as a beginner before he now becomes more experienced and can earn more. Things will speed up if he has someone to teach him and mentor him.

He can be a virtual Assistant for a company that I Know very well. He could also create an information product on something he knows Very well and is enticing as well and sell it over and over again.. He can as well be an affiliate for some construction company as well..
Since he's creative you say, he can as well venture into WordPress Web Development + graphic designing which he can learn comfortably in 2 months and master them as you help him get clients. He can also run Facebook /google ads for some online businesses and learn how to help them boost sales remotely and online (I'll give you a premium and comprehensive course on this for free). You can dm me @08145053105 for more information..
