Hey Beach Bums, I put together a quick roadmap graphic for you. Two paths, and you only need one of them right now. Don't have your YouTube channel set up yet? Start with Roadmap 1. That's your foundation. Pick your direction, get the channel set up right, plan your first few videos, and start posting. Don't worry about products or funnels yet. Just get the channel going. Already have your channel up and running? Go to Roadmap 2. It's probably time to create and launch your first digital product. That doesn't have to be anything big. It could be your own Skool group, a workshop, a freebie funnel, a template, a mini course, whatever fits what you make videos about. Pick one problem your audience has and build the simplest thing that solves it. That's it. One roadmap, one step at a time. You don't have to build everything at once. Save the graphic, figure out which side you're on, and drop a comment below telling me which roadmap you're on and what step you're at. If you're stuck on a step, say so and we'll work through it. David

Hey — Welcome to Beach Bum University. 🌴 I'm David. I've been doing affiliate marketing full-time for over ten years from the Gulf Coast of Florida. I built this community because I got tired of watching people get burned by courses that just teach you to sell the same course you just bought. This is a place for people who make YouTube videos — or want to — and want to turn that content into real, recurring affiliate income. No paid ads. No ClickBank junk. No gurus. Just the Beach Bum Method: buyer-intent YouTube videos, an email list you own, and recurring commissions that stack every month. Ready to get started? Here's your first three steps: Step 1 — Head to the Classroom and start with Module 1. Watch the first lesson before you do anything else. Step 2 — Introduce yourself. 🌴 Your name & where you're from 🎯 Your niche (or what you're considering) 💰 Your 90-day goal 🏖️ Beach or mountains? Step 3 — Check the Leaderboard. Every like and comment earns you points. Flip-flops on. Let's build something real. 🤙
