I didn’t build a startup.
I didn’t launch a course.
I never expected to sell anything online.
Making $$ online feels like scam or impossible.
Here's how I did it:
I didn't launch flashy startup, apps or anything big.
I just uploaded a Blender file to Gumroad.
Custom print clothing business were on often popping in my feed. So, one afternoon I record a YouTube Tutorial on How to create 3D Animated T-shirt mockup.
The whole thing took one afternoon.
After finishing the video, I thought
"Maybe some people are lazy to recreate everything from scratch."
So I uploaded the Blender project file to Gumroad.
I shared the video on my youtube channel, tiktok.
That was it.
A few days later, something strange happened at midnight. I got strange notification from Gumroad "Ch-ching" with message, someone just bought your file for $5!

gumroad notification.
That simple upload made my first money online.
Watching that notification I felt two thing.
Happy: because some one paid money for the first time for something I created.
Slightly scared: because I felt someone just overpaid.
I was't trying to make money.
I wasn't expecting sales.
People continued buying the file.
Over time product reached more than 150 sales.
I made another video teaching how to create painterly effect in Blender and uploaded the blender project.
Again, people bought.
That moment changed my thinking about the making money online.
"Anything you create can become products."
If I had to tell you how you can make your first $ online
Just Try.
You don’t need:
a perfect product
a big audience
a complicated business plan
Just make something that feels worthy of sharing that puts value on others life.
You might be surprised by what happens.
I root for your success.
