Hello to all! I’m seeking help and guidance on creating a way to generate passive income. 
I’m an affiliate for a book-selling company but haven’t had much success. (could be I’m just clueless as to how to promote 
) 
Ultimately, I would love to have my own Magical website 
to assist others. As a newcomer without all the necessary tools, I’m not sure where to begin. 
Any advice or ideas on passive income are welcome and greatly appreciated! 
Thank you all in advance for reading my post and for your loving support!

Passive income is something that’s really difficult to get started with. You have to have a following and be capable of getting traffic to your social media platforms or website. I’m an affiliate for Amazon and Bookshop.org, but I mainly use those for when I review books I enjoy. I use my affiliate link as the link where people can buy the book if they want.
You said you’re already an affiliate for a book-selling company. You can start there! Create a blog and start reviewing books! You can even share lists of new books that may interest your readers. You’ll probably want to have or start a social media account to promote your site or blog.
A lot of people think earning passive income is really easy. In truth, getting started with it can be pretty tedious and time-consuming. Passive income is only passive once you get established. Even then, there’s still work you have to do.
I know this probably wasn’t entirely what you wanted to hear 
but from one online entrepreneur to another, it’s better to be honest!

@MeganB Thank you so much! I completely agree. You’re right; it certainly can be very time-consuming. I appreciate your input and the idea of leaving more book reviews. I sometimes forget to do so. Thank you again for your input. I truly appreciate it!
Much love sent your way!

It can be a tough thing to get started, but if you’re dedicated and put the work in, I’ve heard it can be very successful! I wish you all the luck - and if you ever get that blog started and share book reviews, please let us know!

Hi @kristen4,
I’ve looked into passive income a few times over the years and every time I do I end up seeing exactly what Megan said- most sources of passive income aren’t actually all that passive, most especially when you’re trying to set them up. I haven’t had any luck yet- so I’ll be watching along this thread and soaking up everyone’s words of wisdom too! 
That’s an awesome goal to have, Kristen! 
Definitely take Megan’s advice, as she has her own magickal site and shop set up that are amazing. There are numerous other talented businessfolk around the forum too (forgive me, I can’t possibly tag everyone here- but many are listed in the Coven Member Shops- feel free to take a look for inspiration!) so it definitely can be done 
A shop probably wouldn’t be very passive to manage, though- but a blog or review site would become mostly passive once you set up enough content 
Wishing you all the best and cheering for you, Kristen- keep us updated on your progress! You can make this dream of yours a reality
