He Cloned 1 App And Now Makes $70K Per Month
Vasco MonteiroFounder of Arvow $70,000 monthly recurring revenueBack in 2023, Vasco Monteiro started Arvow, an AI SEO writing app 
In a recent interview, he reveals that the app is now pulling in $70K in monthly revenue…
Vasco also admits that Arvow wasn’t an original idea, taking inspiration from other apps that were already earning big money doing the same thing 
Jasper was on it already… there was CopyAI as well. So we weren’t the first… we crammed ourselves in there. Nothing new. We saw what was working and just did something for us.
Vasco took the same approach with his previous company, a marketplace like Upwork but more niche…
Vettted wasn’t anything new… It was a marketplace just niched down for SEO services.
What products or services do you see out there that are already making money? 
Create your own version, perhaps market to a different niche or emphasize a slightly different use case.

I built a chrome extension as a distraction-free alternative to Grammarly…
Couple of days ago, I have posted the update of it hitting 10 sales. Today, I have crossed 20 lifetime license sales.
He’s Earned €100K This Year Flipping Specific Domains
TimDomain Flipper €100,000+ revenueTim from the Netherlands 
has been earning $1000+ per month for many years flipping domains.
the past year has been very disappointing because there are very few good names left with extensions like .com, .eu and .nl. I was actually thinking about quitting
Then a friend in Dubai 
told him…
the .ae extension is becoming increasingly popular among locals and many international companies due to tourism growth.
So he gave it a try 
In the first weeks I invested €360… I immediately bought the domains palmjumeirahvillas.ae and palmjumeirahhotels.ae. Within a week I sold them simply by emailing real estate companies with an offer.
In the first month I earned €9,800, and the month after that €15,600…
Recently, I’ve noticed that competition is increasing and profits are slightly lower, so I started flipping: I bought domains I had previously owned again and resold them within a week with a 60% margin.
In the end, I’ve now made €100,000 and I’m enjoying my time alongside my job even more.
Probably still plenty of money to be made flipping .ae domains.
You could also keep an eye on housing prices in different countries (this site makes it easy), be ready to jump on the next opportunity along these lines 
40 Years Old, Started a Year Ago, Now Earning $10K Per Month
MaxUGC Creator $10,000 monthly revenue
Max writes…
Now I’m 40, and about a year ago… I stumbled into something that finally worked: UGC, which stands for user-generated content.
If you haven’t heard of it, it’s when regular people (not influencers.. Im just a random normal dude) create videos that brands use for their paid ads or organic social media.
No following required, no crazy tech setup, just the ability to film, talk naturally, and understand/follow requests from a brand.
For me, this clicked because it rewards experience, not youth. The industry is full of younger creators, but many brands actually want creators who look like their real customers. Parents, homeowners, professionals, real people with life experience…
Currently I make around 10k per month from UGC creation…
It started as a side hustle and then Within the first month of starting to search I went full time. I landed a gig for $50 within 24 hours of searching and that’s when I was like “omg this might actually work”
See examples of his UGC videos on his website 
And he shares lots more info about getting started here.

Turning eBay Flips Into a $3,000/Month Side Hustle
Altruistic_Wind9167eBay Flipper $3000 monthly profit Altruistic_Wind9167 writes…
I started messing with eBay just to test the waters where I bought some electronics like mac books or watches and trading cards to see what would sell. I didn’t have a plan just curiosity and a few late nights spent looking into multiple listings.
I began to notice patterns. Certain categories like electronics and collectibles sold quicker and had better margins. I started tracking what sold best, improving my listing descriptions , and focusing more on things like PC laptops, video cards, and even men’s shoes.
Once I found what was working the income became steady. It now brings in around $3k a month…
That’s $3000 per month after fees and shipping 
Says he spends 1-2 hours on the business most days, “sometimes more up to four if im sourcing or have lots to list.”
Finding inventory consistently at least 15% cheaper than current listings is definitely the trickiest part especially at scale…
Speed matters a lot. The best deals get sold up quickly. Being one of the first to spot undervalued listings makes a huge difference.
I usually source on ebay then resell back there or Amazon.
Simple Side Project = $300,000 in 3 Years
Sachin NeravathFounder of lightGallery $300,000+ revenue
Sachin Neravath tweets about his side project…
3 years ago, I started my indie hacking journey with a simple Javascript library and it crossed $300K in revenue.
The library is lightGallery…
A lightweight, modular, JavaScript image and video lightbox gallery plugin.
In terms of growth…
I don’t do anything special for the distributions.
All the traffic comes from Google. So, I worked a bit on SEO and free tools. Thats it
Asked if he could go back 3 years and give himself one piece of advice, Sachin replied…
Focus only on one main project
lightGallery looks good, but also fairly simple.
I’m amazed Sachin has made $300K from it, especially with one-time fees for licenses 
I would have guessed there was no market for this 3 years ago, that a good solution already existed.
My takeaway: worth doing keyword research around your expertise and seeing if you can build something along those lines
“We Are Now Doing Over $2.4 Million a Year”
blindgamingAgency Owner $2.4 Million annual revenueblindgaming shares on Reddit…
We have been using go high level for the last 2 years to scale our IT company and now have opened a marketing company as well based on ghl. In that time we are now doing over 2.4 million dollars a year in annual recurring revenue.
Doesn’t say what niche they’re focused on, but they operate with a software + service model…
base software is $497 a month and that includes 24/7 support with all of our customizations and full build-outs. Our actual marketing packages with done for you services started $2,000 a month and can go up to $20,000 a month
And while High Level (aff link) is a powerful tool, he emphasizes that it only works if you leverage it to deliver good results for clients
The only value that we have as agency owners is increasing the amount of customers a client acquires, increasing the profitability of those customers, or increasing the efficiency at which they can operate. If we cannot do these things we hold no value to the client
That’s a sentiment echoed in another comment…
HighLevel is not a “make money fast” tool. It’s a tool to help other businesses with marketing and ai.
Are people running very profitable agencies with HighLevel ? Yes. But just thinking you can get highlevel and easily make money is a great way to fail.
Find an industry with a huge gap / pain point in the world of marketing automation. Solve it. Charge well for the solution. That’s what all service based businesses do.
From Broke & Depressed to $15K/Month in 1 Year
Denis YurchakFounder of Yadaphone $15,000 monthly revenue Denis Yurchak tweets…
1 year ago, I was depressed and had only $300 in my bank account
Now my product makes $15,000 a month
He’d built 15 products in 3 years but hadn’t made much money 
Then…
In March 2025, Skype closed down. I used Skype myself to call while traveling and knew there was an audience for this
I’ve put everything I learned together and made yadaphone.com. I posted on every subreddit I could find, got blocked, reached out to blog owners, and told all my friends about it
This time it took off – 500 users in the first month, 1000 in the second – and now I have 10,000 people signed up, with over half of them paying
Takeaway: keep an eye out for popular websites / products / services that are shutting down.
Is there one you could replace?
Bonus: I asked ChatGPT if there’s a place to see a list of popular products that are due to be shut down… nothing like that seems to exist.
How about building a website / newsletter / social account along those lines?

21-Year-Old Earning $1200/Month Automating Boring Stuff
PapitoEntrepreneur $1200 monthly revenue Papito writes…
I’m 21 and make $1,200/month helping small businesses automate boring stuff
I started learning automation last year because I hated repetitive work. I wasn’t even trying to “start a business,” I just liked solving annoying problems with simple code and tools like n8n.
My first “client” was a local gym that needed help sending follow-up texts automatically. Then a dental office, then a real estate agent. I charged small amounts at first, but it added up to about $1,200/month — just from helping people save time.
Lessons learned
– Most businesses don’t need AI, they just need fewer manual steps.
– The fastest way to get clients is by solving one specific pain point well.
– You don’t need to be an expert, learn as you go, but deliver something that actually works.
– Once someone sees their time being saved, they’ll gladly pay to keep it running.
Getting clients…
all word of mouth. I started off messaging business owners I knew asking if they were interested in automating something. And from there my clientele grew…
Honestly, the best way to start is by fixing one annoying problem for someone you already know. Small wins build confidence fast, and once people see time being saved, word spreads on its own.
Her 8-Person Study Group Became a $14K/Month Business
Kaelyn Grace AppleFounder of Accepted Society $14,000 monthly revenue Creator Spotlight reports…
Five years ago, at the beginning of her PhD — alone, mid-pandemic, and missing the library study halls she’d relied on — Kaelyn Grace Apple invited her YouTube viewers to join a Zoom study session. Eight people showed up…
Those eight kept coming. Then 10, then 15, then 20. By summer 2021, with attendance hitting 20 regularly, Kaelyn began formalizing it.
She eventually brought on a business partner, and today…
their 500+ member community is global and diverse, spanning the U.S., Brazil, Singapore, and Australia, and comprising remote students, returning students in their 30s and 40s, and individuals with families or jobs that make in-person study sessions more challenging.
In total, it generates around $14,000 monthly.
Kaelyn clearly tapped into that sense of belonging and community we all like to feel when pursuing a goal.
Is there a goal you’re pursuing, or have already achieved?
Consider creating an online community or “study group” to connect with others on the same journey.
