3 Unconventional Ways To Make Money

Hey, my friend—today, we’re throwing the boring, budget-cutting, penny-pinching cash flow advice out the window. Sometimes, the fastest way to increase cash flow isn’t by cutting costs or working longer hours—it’s by shifting your energy and focus and trying something new. 

We’re talking three unconventional, high-vibe strategies that work because they don’t just change your business… they change YOU. And when YOU change, the results change. 

So buckle up, I’m taking you on a wild ride—we’re talking fun, gratitude, and a little magic journal that will change your financial life. 

1. Have More Fun in Your Business  

Let’s be real — when’s the last time you belly-laughed at work? When’s the last time your team felt lit up, not just clocked in? 

Here’s the truth: fun is a higher vibration than stress or worry. And guess what else vibrates high? Money. Abundance. Opportunity. 

When you’re obsessing over bills, stressing about invoices, and walking around like a human thundercloud—you’re basically putting up an energetic ‘Closed for Business’ sign for Money. 

So here’s your assignment—make your business fun again. Start easy. Start simple. Start for one week. For the next 7 days, have fun. You’ve got to set the vibe for your staff, your customers, and clients; so it starts with you. When was the last time you bought your team coffee, breakfast, or lunch? 

Picture this, you’re in your store and at some random time you grab the microphone from the in-take desk and announce, “Dance break!” Don’t have a microphone? Yell really loud, “Dance break!” Turn on some dance tunes, even if it’s just on your speaker on your phone. You can find my dance break music here so you can download it. It’s full of high energy and inspirational lyrics.  

Create games for your team to play. Create games for your customers to play. It doesn’t matter if they are tied to sales or productivity–if you have fun, the money will flow. I know some store owners who don’t celebrate silly holidays like National Donut Day because their staff eats all the donuts. Who cares? Let them. Let them have more fun at work.  

On your live video selling–create games for your audience if they’re not built into the platform. Do dance breaks in the middle of your selling videos and get your audience up dancing. Tell stories and be entertaining. When was the last time you told a story about an item that you were selling on a live video?  

Because when you’re having fun, you’re magnetic. Customers feel it. Opportunities feel it. And money loves to hang out where the energy is high. 

2. Gratitude 

Gratitude is one of the most underutilized tools in business growth. And I don’t just mean thinking, “Yeah, I’m grateful.” I mean actively, intentionally cultivating it every single day. 

Here’s the deal—what you appreciate, appreciates. It grows. 

When you focus on what’s working—the clients you do have, the customers who do love you, the sales you are making—you start training your brain to spot more of it and you attract more of it.  

And the best part? Gratitude costs zero dollars, has zero risk, and it works whether you’ve got $10 in the bank or $10 million. 

So, here’s a quick challenge—every morning, before you even check your phone, write down three things you’re grateful for in your business. Start training your brain to be grateful throughout the day. Stuck in traffic? Be genuinely thankful for your car, for your stereo in your car for the podcast you’re listening to that’s keeping you company, for the Starbucks you get to enjoy on your way to wherever you’re going. Be thankful that you get to be the Boss.  

Create a gratitude wall where you work. Every time your staff comes in, have them write something they’re grateful for, and again, at the end of their shift. After one week, erase & start over. Or… get one of those infinity rolls and have your team write their gratitudes there.

And… are you ready for this?: When you go LIVE as new audience members tune in, have each person write one thing they’re grateful for. This is amazing on so many levels, from gaining more algorithm love, toall the comments and higher vibes from your audience.  

3. Keep a Money or Asset Journal 

Okay… this one might sound a little woo woo, but trust me—it works like freakin’ magic. And when you do this 3rd step along with the other two steps, your money is going to start flowing to you like water from a fire hose!  

I first heard about this from Violette De Ayala, founder of FemCity. She called it a money journal. Here’s how it works: 

Get yourself a small journal or use a journal app on your phone. Any time you receive money in any form, write it down. 

It could be a penny you find on the sidewalk, $2 in your jeans pocket, your total sales for the day, a gift with purchase, or a friend picking up the lunch bill. 

You’re not just tracking dollars—you’re tracking every single form of abundance that flows to you. 

Why does it work? Because what you focus on expands. And when you start seeing evidence of money and assets showing up everywhere, you shift from scarcity to abundance. 

And from that place? You start attracting more…and more…and more!   

New clients, new customers, surprise refunds, random bonuses. I’ve seen people start this practice, and within days and weeks, they’re getting upgraded at hotels, landing new business out of the blue, being invited to speak about their businesses on podcasts, finding uncashed checks, unexpected tax refunds, and sales magically coming through their lead funnels and websites.  

So, here’s the takeaway—increasing your cash flow doesn’t always start with a calculator and a spreadsheet. But it does always start with your state of mind, your focus, and your energy. 

1. Make fun a non-negotiable in your business. 

1. Let gratitude be your daily fuel. 

1. Track every single form of abundance like it’s your job. 

Do this for 30 days and just watch—the opportunities, the clients, the sales, they’ll start coming in faster and easier.
