Introduction

Are you ready to quit the job you hate and start living the life you’ve always dreamed of? In 2025, there are tons of opportunities for beginners to jump into a business and make serious money. Whether you’re looking for something simple or something that requires a little more effort, there’s a business for you. Let’s dive into some of the top options, starting with a super easy one that’s already making people millions this year.

1. TikTok Shop Affiliate Business

If you’ve been scrolling through TikTok lately, you might have noticed a new button called “Shop” on some videos. Well, here’s the deal: when you click on that button and buy the product, the person who tagged it makes money. This business model is called the TikTok Shop Affiliate Program, and it’s blowing up in 2025. Even beginners with zero business experience are making huge profits, and you can do it too — as long as you have an internet connection and know how to use social media.

Here’s an example: check out this TikTok video where a girl promoted a snail face cream. It sold 11,300 units on TikTok Shop, which translates to $17,730 in sales. Creators earn 5-30% commission, so she likely made anywhere between $8,000 and $50,000 from that one video. Imagine: she shot a quick video in her bathroom, spent maybe five minutes editing it, and made $25,000. That’s more than the average salary in some countries, all from promoting a product on TikTok.

How to Get Started:

1. Create a TikTok account: You probably already have one, but if not, download TikTok from the App Store and sign up.
2. Sign up for the TikTok Shop Affiliate Program: Just Google it, fill out the application, and you’re good to go.
3. Buy the product: To create content, you’ll need to buy the product(s) you plan to promote. For some items, you might need multiple to create different types of content.
4. Make engaging content: This could be a product review or simply following the trends to make your videos persuasive and fun.
5. Keep trying: If your first few attempts don’t work, don’t give up. Test out new products and strategies. With consistency, you’ll find something that works.

One girl tried several products before landing on a men’s cologne that went viral, making her over $50,000. So, just keep at it, and you’ll find your own success!

2. Social Media Business: My Million-Dollar Journey

Back in 2016, I started my very first social media business, and it’s now made me over $1 million in the last three years. Social media is a massive industry, and you don’t even need to show your face to succeed. There are several ways influencers make money, and I’ll break them down for you.

Let’s look at one of my YouTube videos. It’s a Drop Shipping challenge, and it made me $4,578.75 from AdSense alone. This video is an 8-minute finance video, which, for its length, didn’t make as much as I expected. But that’s not the whole story. You see, YouTubers make money in multiple ways:

• AdSense: I made a few thousand dollars just from ads running on the video.
• Brand Deals: A company like AutoDS (a dropshipping fulfillment service) paid me to talk about their service. These deals can range from $100 to millions of dollars, depending on your followers, views, and niche.
• Affiliate Links: With brand deals, you often get affiliate links to make extra money. So, if someone signs up using your link, you get a cut. This can be for Shopify, TikTok ads, or even online courses.
• Selling Your Own Products: Smart creators sell their own stuff. Look at Mr. Beast with his chocolates or KSI with Prime — you can do the same by creating something your audience loves.

All of this combined meant that my $40,000 came from just 300,000 views on that one video.

3. The Power of Online Domains for Your Business

In the online world, finding the perfect domain name can be a struggle, especially with all the best .com domains already taken. But there’s a better option: .online domains. Whether you’re starting a new business or scaling an existing one, having a domain name with “.online” gives you an edge. It’s memorable, professional, and instantly tells people you’re open for business.

Right now, you can even get a free .online domain for your first year by using my special code “Techincomehub” at Hostinger.

4. Day Trading vs. Long-Term Investing

Day trading has been trending, but here’s the truth: it’s hard. Day trading means buying and selling stocks within the same day, trying to predict market moves. While it can make you a lot of money, it takes 3-7 years to really master, and 90% of traders end up losing money. Instead of day trading, consider long-term investing.

When you hold stocks for over 20 years, the chances of making money go way up. Plus, apps like Webull and Moomoo are giving away free stocks just for signing up. If you deposit a small amount of money, you can get anywhere from $18 to $18,000 in free stocks, depending on the platform.

5. Drop Shipping: A Proven Business Model

Drop shipping isn’t oversaturated — people just aren’t doing it right. In drop shipping, you sell products at a higher price than what you buy them for. For example, you could sell a portable movie projector that costs $15 on AliExpress for $45 on your website. When someone buys, you pay AliExpress $15, and they ship the product directly to your customer, keeping the $30 profit.

Even if you don’t make money initially, the skills you’ll learn — like marketing, sales, and ad creation — will change your life. If you’re interested in drop shipping, I created an AI tool that builds a free drop shipping store for you with winning products. Just click the first link in my description, follow the prompts, and you’ll have a fully functioning store ready to make you money.

Final Thoughts:

2025 is the year for new businesses, and with a little hustle and smart strategies, you can make money doing something you love. Whether you’re into affiliate marketing, creating content, or launching a store, there’s an opportunity for everyone. Stay consistent, keep learning, and who knows — you could be the next success story.
