When you start looking for ways to make money online, the first obstacle is often the lack of results. After several failed attempts, many invest in training to understand why their strategies weren't working. That first income, even if small, is the validation that the learning was necessary. It's not magic, it's correcting basic mistakes.
Automation with Python scripts and payment APIs 🤖
To scale income, many turn to automations. For example, a Python script that uses the Shopify API to sync inventories and Stripe to process recurring payments. With libraries like requests and schedule, you can schedule tasks without manual intervention. This reduces errors and frees up time, but requires knowledge of programming logic and handling authentication tokens. It's not for beginners without a technical background.
The expensive course that teaches you to search on Google 😅
After paying 200 euros for a digital marketing course, you discover that the key was searching Google on how to set up a payment gateway. The instructor sold you the secret that was already on the first page of results. The funny thing is that now you know the real business is selling courses to those who haven't yet learned to search. Ironies of the system.
