Imagine making $100 a day posting on IG Threads. No product. No ads. Just content and strategy. Sounds too good? I thought the same. Until I tried.
Today, I’ll show you how to start a $100/day IG Threads business—step-by-step.
No fluff. Just proven actions. Let’s dive in.
Why IG Threads Is Your Next Money-Maker
Threads by Instagram is exploding. In 2024, it crossed 160 million users fast. It’s still fresh. That’s your advantage.
The algorithm rewards daily content. Engagement is high. Competition is low. Brands are watching. Opportunities are real.
People are building audiences—fast. Monetization is the next big wave. Let’s ride it smart.
What You Need to Begin (Spoiler: It’s Free)
You don’t need a website or email list. No paid ads. No followers to start. Here’s what you’ll need:
IG account with Threads access
Niche that solves a pain point
Google Docs (for content planning)
Free Canva account (for visuals)
Gumroad or Stan Store (for monetization)
Optional: ChatGPT (for content ideation)
Pick a Profitable Niche
Money follows attention. And attention follows value.
Pick a niche where people have problems. Here are examples that work well:
Make money online
AI tools and tutorials
Personal branding
Fitness or mental health
Dating and relationships
Self-help and productivity
Your niche should be 3 things:
Specific
Solves a problem
Evergreen (long-term interest)
Example: "AI Tools for Freelancers"
Create Your $100/Day Content Funnel
You need a funnel. Not just random posts. Here’s how you build one that prints $100/day:
Step 1: Hook-Based Content (Top of Funnel)
Post short, punchy content daily. Think Tweets, but visual.
Example: "You don’t need 10 tools. You need these 3 AI tools to earn $500/week."
Use Threads to:
Share tips
Break myths
Educate quickly
Trigger curiosity
Your goal? Build trust + traffic.
Step 2: Value-Based Posts (Middle Funnel)
Now educate with deeper value. You want to position yourself as an expert.
Example post: "Here’s how I used ChatGPT + Notion to automate my client work."
Mix in visuals, carousels, or before/after screenshots.
Step 3: Soft Sell or Direct CTA (Bottom Funnel)
Now direct traffic to a monetized link. Examples:
Ebook: "30 AI Tools to Make $100/Day"
Templates: "My IG Growth Plan"
Notion dashboards
Use tools like Stan Store or Gumroad.
Monetization Paths That Actually Work
So, how do you get paid? Here are 4 practical ways:
1. Sell a Digital Product
Create a Notion template, checklist, or ebook. Price it at $9-$29. You only need a few daily buyers to hit $100.
2. Affiliate Marketing
Recommend tools you love. Sign up on platforms like:
Each referral earns you passive cash.
3. Brand Partnerships (Later Stage)
Once you hit 2K–5K followers, brands will reach out. You can earn $100–$500 per post.
4. Coaching or Services
Offer 1:1 services. Help others grow on Threads. Charge hourly or package rates.
Real-Life Case Study
Let me share my story.
In January 2025, I had zero followers. I picked the "AI Tools" niche. I posted 2–3 times daily for 21 days.
One post about ChatGPT automation went viral. Got 200+ saves and 60 DMs. I created a simple Notion template.
Sold 18 copies at $7 in 1 day. That’s $126—without ads or cold DMs.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
Don’t do this:
Copy other creators word-for-word
Skip niche research
Sell before building trust
Overcomplicate your offer

Tips for Better Content on IG Threads
Use 1-line sentences for clarity
Add emojis (sparingly) for flow
Ask questions to boost engagement
Use curiosity-driven hooks
Make CTA clear ("Link in bio")
Example: "Want my 3 favorite free tools? They made me $700 last week."
Final Thoughts: Just Start Today
You don’t need 10k followers. You don’t need a course.
You need action. You need 1 niche. You need 30 days of consistency.
Start simple. Stay consistent. Create value. Then monetize.
That’s how you build a $100/day IG Threads business. And if I can do it, you can too.
