EDITOR’S PICK:
WhatsApp as you already know is one of the biggest social media platforms that is estimated to be used by billions of people all over the world. It is widely preferred for its easy communication and the fact that it is fast and cheap, but what many people do not know is that this platform can be a source of accumulating wealth when strategically used.
Just like every other social media platform, the WhatsApp application allows users to share information on their status which can be used as traffic to draw the attention of people to a particular product or service.
As an individual who desires to earn from this platform, it becomes important to first develop a large contact which can be achieved by saving the phone numbers of friends from other social media platforms like Facebook and others. The rationale behind this practice is to develop a large contact list that will increase the number of views you get on your WhatsApp posts.
1. Selling your product or skill
One of the ways most people earn from WhatsApp is by marketing their products or services using the advantage of their large contact list. You can simply sell your skill or goods by posting sample pictures on your status with marketable inscriptions. The idea behind this is to showcase what you intend to sell to people who might be interested.
2. Market or sell people’s products on your WhatsApp status to receive a commission
You don’t necessarily need to have a physical product to earn from this strategy, all you need to do is to act as an affiliate marketer to someone else’s product which you can sell for a commission. For instance, you can upload photos of someone’s goods with price tags on your status. When a person in your contact shows an interest in the product and makes a payment, you should then order the product from the seller while you retain your commission or profit.
3. Promote affiliate links
You can also earn from using WhatsApp by sharing links to online stores on your status. There are a couple of websites like Amazon and a few others that pay users when people buy a certain product via their links.
4. Drive traffic to people’s blogs and get paid for it
There are numerous bloggers and content creators who are willing to pay heavily just to get viewers to their content.
