By very popular demand: after my first piece — "11 Ways to Make Money with n8n (Without Selling Your Soul or Writing a Single Line of Code)" — you asked for a sequel. Fine. Here are twenty-two fresh, field-tested monetization plays. Same format as last time: short, price range, concrete case. If you want 33 more, say the word and we'll do Part 3.
A reminder of the ground rule: sell outcomes, not nodes.
Price the business result, package it cleanly, and write the smallest thing that works.
1. VIP Troubleshooter (Emergency Fixes)
💰 $300–$1,500 per call
When someone's brittle "automation" explodes at 4:00 p.m. on a Friday, you un-explode it.

Spin up CRM, email, Slack, DB, calendars — glued by n8n — in one go.

Packaging that Sells (So You Don't Have to)
- Name the bundle. "VIP Troubleshooter," "Marketplace Bridge," "HR Autopilot." People buy labels.
- Define the finish line. What changes on Day 1? (e.g., "orders hit CRM in under 60 seconds").
- Price by outcome. Not "8 hours." Price the fire you prevented.
- Ship a tiny playbook. One-page doc: triggers, data, failure modes, how to extend.
- Offer a care plan. $200–$600/month to watch logs, rotate keys, tweak rules.
What You Need in Your Kit (Minimal, ruthlessly so)
- One clean n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted).
- A handful of templates you can fork in under two minutes.
- A checklist for auth, retries, alerts, and logging.
- A demo sheet with fake — but realistic — data for live sales calls.
- A fixed-scope contract and a simple SLA for your retainers.
Want Part 3? Say "33" in the comments.
This list doubles the ideas from the first article and keeps the same promise: no drama, no code, just workflows customers pay for because they work. If you want a third round with 33 more — including B2B data products, paid "ops in a box," and AI-assisted research pipelines — drop a "33" below, share which play you want me to deep-dive, and I'll build it out.
If you missed the origin story: start with 11 Ways to Make Money with n8n (Without Selling Your Soul or Writing a Single Line of Code). Then come back and pick a lane.
Clap if this saved you time, follow if you want Part 3, and if you deploy one of these this week, tell me which one — I might turn your build into a public template.
