Welcome to Smart Passive Income
I’m Pat Flynn. I was laid off in 2008, became an entrepreneur, and never turned back. Nowadays, I’m a podcaster, YouTuber, and start-up advisor.
And this is Liz Wilcox. Since 2016, she’s made over 70,000 sales and built a business that only requires a couple hours of work each day.
Together, we’d love to help you grow your business to full time and beyond.
Raise your hand if creating passive income online feels hard.
Don’t worry. You’re not alone. Building smart passive income can take a while.
Online income can be very lucrative. If you’ve got an idea and the drive to work hard at it every day, the (passive) payoff will be worth it.
If you’re feeling stressed, take a deep breath.
Liz and I want to help you get a piece of this pie.
Without complicated marketing strategies, forcing you to sell products you don’t believe in, or burnout from too much content creation.
I’ve made $100k+ in sales from my little digital products this year, and a huge part of that is due to your email templates and trainings.

Smart Passive Income Podcast
If you’ve ever thought, “I wish I could sit down with someone who’s built a successful online business and just ask them what works,” you’re in the right place.
Welcome to the Smart Passive Income Podcast. Your go-to listen for building passive income online since 2008. More recently, Pat brought in Liz Wilcox to tag team the questions you’re already thinking about: how to grow an audience, build trust, create content, sell online, and design a business that supports your life—not the other way around.
Every episode is designed so you walk away with ideas you can actually use, not just another notebook full of motivational quotes.
I am so glad I joined the SPI Community. It makes what has seemed unreachable as far as my goals, dreams, and aspirations feel reachable and attainable.
— Boots Knighton (author, podcaster)
