How to Make Real Money in Second Life

Boost Your Business, Market Your Services and
Sell Your Products in the World's Hottest
Virtual Community

Layna's Notes: Okay (laugh if you must but...) when I first came upon this book in a search, I thought it was about making money in your senior years/retirement.

Second Life ... right?! I suppose the words "virtual community" in the title were lost on me. I thought he meant virtual to mean "effective" as in a target market of people ready and willing to buy (turns out, he meant that, too!).

Well, I have since learned this is about a real virtual (existing only in the digital realm) community called Second Life that began back in 2003 but is still active. This book claims that Second Life is a viable way for you make REAL MONEY by putting your business in front of this virtual community.

I personally had never heard of Second Life so I did a Google search. I learned it is a place that can best be compared as a cross between the World of Warcraft and a digital hangout where people go to do everything from business to view weird/kinky sex/fetishism stuff.

Wow. A little too rich for my appetite. But hey, I'm not judging...

If you're into this, you may want to read the book I'm sharing. If not, you may want to do a Google search for Second Life.

To get you started, here's one article (out of dozens) I found that can give you some background:

Interesting. I've been a Second Life resident for over 11 years. I should write a book on how to spend all your money on Second Life ;) But it's great fun if you bypass the weird and the weirder lol

[timeoutnews]

I had a skim through the book. The author used horrible pictures from probably the early days of Second Life, not appealing at all.

The ones who make the most money are the creators, especially the ones that have established their brand. If you can design clothes or tattoos, then you can run a business on SL and eventually make good money. If you can create something interesting to sell on SL, then you can have a business.

The sim owner that run events and monthly boxes would be my second guess for making the most money.
Then there is real estate. I've watched a video of an interview of a couple who have numerous sims. It is their main income but they said it was a 24/7 business to keep it running.
Some DJs do make good money too. You also have the resellers of Gacha which is some sort of gambling basically.

To promote your brand on SL, it's doable but I would say it is more difficult than it sounds. Obviously, SL residents spend a lot of money but most of them tend to want to ignore REAL LIFE. They are on SL to escape and want to keep their RL life private and separate from SL. In my 11 years, I've never run into someone that offered me something of value outside SL.

Interesting...then it's not a viable option to promote your current businesses, but a good option if you want to start a new one?

The fact that people make enough on SL to live a comfortable life in the real world is shocking. I've heard of some random success stories, and thought it was an exception rather than a rule.

I've been on there, on and off (more off than on), for the past 7 years though. I guess I wasted my time, since I'm too old to be creating tattoo designs now lol.

Thanks a lot for the review! Glad to meet a fellow SL fan.

Yes, nice to know there are other SL residents on here :)
My flatmate can draw exceptionally well and wants to be a tattoo artist. I've told her many times she could established herself on SL to create a passive income. Though she would have to buy the software and learn how to transfer her designs to SL (I have no idea how though I have seen the software to create clothes). I don't know if you remember Moody Shoes (not sure of the spelling now), if you didn't own a pair of Moody shoe, you were not worth of SL back in the days. The made huge of money but went down as apparently they weren't paying their staff. There are a lot fo successful people and how do they promote themselves? Flickr. Flickr is THE thing for Second Lifers. Also some of the creators on SL are creators of custom content for the Sims series. Also designs have been stolen from Sims creators and reproduced on SL.
Also photography is a huge business on SL. I've seen profile pictures advertise on special for 1500 Lindens. for the past year (2017) I've been logging in almost daily mainly because I enjoy doing photography.
I had a friend who was a fashion consultant on SL and her customers were mostly men who needed help to get dressed lol not that I think it is an issues these days. Male avatars look fabulous now.
I wanted to start a consultancy to help people on their journey to SL even though there are spots for noobs, but I've never found them to be that helpful. That's why I lasted ten minutes the first time I joined and came back 2 years later because my RL friend was on there. Set up a fiver gig but never gone further than that. lol
