As a serial entrepreneur, I love building and creating. With businesses varying from agencies to SaaS and everything in between, I enjoy focusing on the tech space. I also love figuring out how to make my money generate even more money. Once you learn how to do it, it becomes the greatest business game you can play.

In this quest for diversification and accumulation, I have become mildly obsessed with creating and selling courses geared towards teaching others how they can disrupt the online world in their own way (while making money the entire time). My first course, "How to Build a Million Dollar Website in 60 Minutes with No Code" (not to be confused with my latest book, The New Rich) has been an awesome foray, but I have also found other great resources by various entrepreneurs and business owners across the world focused on how to make money online.

Here are my top five must-have resource picks for anyone looking to make money online that I've personally undertaken or read.

1. "Reloaded Hustlers Field Manual" and five other relevant courses including "Twitter Money" by Chris Johnson. I'm a big fan of how Chris approaches business. His courses are a no-bullshit guide on how to leverage the internet, find the right products, build community, sell online, price correctly for the most profit, create an email marketing strategy, build an online store and more. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a practical guide on how to make money online.

2. "How to Buy, Grow, and Sell Small Companies" by Ryan Kulp. This online course is all about walking you step-by-step through the extensive process of business acquisition. With six incredibly detailed modules and more than $3,000 worth of bonus content in contract templates, this is a great resource for anyone looking to acquire a business for the first time.

3. "Monthly 1k" by King Sumo himself, Noah Kagan. "Monthly 1k" is an online course with action-based steps and community accountability, and it's a perfect resource for those driven to turn ideas into business plans. Throughout the course, you will learn exactly what you need to focus on in order to make a business idea reality — and hit that 1K-a-month goal.

4. "No Code MVP" by Bram Kanstein. For those who don't learn well by sifting through thousands of words of text, this video course is ideal. Not only is it packed with tons of practical lessons, but it allows budding entrepreneurs to learn all the mindset, tools and processes they'll need to turn target customers into paying customers (without any necessity to learn code).

5. Make — Bootstrapper's Handbook by Pieter Levels. This online handbook is for those who like to do things on their own terms. The "make" book is filled with continuously updated information on how to start small and grow big, including the best tools, processes, systems and ways to grow your projects. The indie hacker and solopreneur crowds comfortable with rolling up their sleeves to get down and dirty on their startup will have met their match with this ebook packed full of useful tips and tools.

While there are plenty of resources (both free and paid) to find on the internet, when you stumble on the right course, book or app for you, finding your niche in the online money-making world can becpme simple. It is important to note that there is absolutely no cure-all for getting money without work, and if you are falling for resources that tout as much, you're running down a scamming path.

The savviest entrepreneurs are the ones who are constantly learnin, being coached and taking courses. Using the resources I've named above is a great start to realizing just how far you can take your ideas, startups, and it's another essential path to acquiring monetizable skills.
