Nate Tilley argues the digital ad space is still profitable. Pick one or two skills like copywriting or graphic design, get really good at them, then sell to agencies or clients. Start on Fiverr or LinkedIn.

Fiverr and LinkedIn
If you're thinking about starting an online business and you're wondering if the digital ad space is still profitable, it really is. There's a lot of businesses that are super hungry for people that are skilled at this. So that's the difference in what the market has and what the market needs. The market has a bunch of people pushing ad services and selling things, but on the back end, they don't know how to actually do the work themselves. So if it were me, and I was looking to get into this again, I. I would become very, very specialized at one or two skills. Extremely specialized in copywriting, graphic design, email marketing, text marketing, messaging, something like that. I'd be absolutely specialized in that. And then I would go and offer that either to agencies who have clients that need that, or directly to clients, and that's how I would get started. You can start an account on fiverr.com and you can actually bid for jobs, and you can also look for jobs on LinkedIn. So it's not that hard to get started in this. But the first thing you need to do is get good at something. You have to build your skills.
