In a June 2020 video, Lester specified four ways he makes money online:

The four ways:

  • Monetized videos on his Facebook pages
  • Affiliate marketing
  • YouTube ad revenue
  • Sales of his online course

How much money does Lester make?

Lester says in the above video that he earns “well over $200 per day” from his online business, so we’re talking at least $6000 per month overall.

However, as per the screenshots shown at the beginning of that video, it looks like Lester earned $7,462 from Facebook marketing in May – up 24% from the previous month – and another $1,436 from YouTube ads the same month.

So, for that month at least, he probably earned closer to $10,000.

In a February 2020 video Lester showed how he earns money on Facebook via in-stream video ads:

In a May 2020 video, Lester showed that he earned $1287 in YouTube ad revenue the previous month:

He had 175k video views for the month, and 20-22k subscribers to his channel.

So his average income from YouTube ads in April and May works out to $1,341 per month.

How did Lester get started?

Lester shares his backstory in this video:

In brief:

  • He started working online in 2008-2009
  • He learned SEO and found some freelance clients, eventually earning as much as $8000 per month while outsourcing some of the work.
  • Eager to earn more passive income, in 2013-2014 Lester started learning about affiliate marketing and Facebook marketing. He was able to develop those income streams and eventually stop doing freelance work.
  • He started posting videos to YouTube in November 2017.
