Can I Go for Four?
In 2021, when I first taught Lucrative Courses, I was just starting a new trading education business. I told the students they’d be able to follow along as I built a brand from scratch.
That brand, The Daily Rage, went on to become a 6-figure business the following year. It was the third time I’d taken an idea from $0 to $100K and beyond. First in coach training, then in speaker training, then in trading financial markets—all from teaching courses.
So it’s probably obvious that I’m a huge proponent of online education; I believe everyone should be involved. According to Google, the online education industry was “valued at $350-$400 billion in 2024/2025 and is projected to surge past $800 billion, potentially reaching $1 trillion by the early 2030s.”
So the pie, in this case, is enormous. Would you like a piece of it?
Your course could be about anything…
Painting
Speaking Swahili
Playing the flute
Leadership
AI
Personal finance
Relationships
Cooking
Whatever you’re into
Really, it’s anything in which you have some skill, and you enjoy talking about. Many people assume that if they themselves know something, everyone must know it. But that’s simply not the case. You have likely figured out a lot of things in your life that others may struggle with—even if they feel easy or obvious to you.
This is how you can serve others through your willingness to share your experience. For example, I teach a lot about business and money because I learned many a hard lesson going through bankruptcy early in my entrepreneurial adventure. I figured out how to stage a comeback, so I love sharing with people how to do that, and hopefully, not end up there in the first place.
And let me tell you, while the money from selling courses is nice, there is NOTHING that compares to the feeling of seeing your students succeed. ❤️
When Lucrative Courses opens up in January, I’ll be starting from scratch again with my new software brand, LucraPro. I’ve never run a software company, so believe me when I tell you I will be making it up as I go. But here’s the thing: once you know the framework, you can put pretty much any content inside. Some ideas will work better than others based on the marketplace, but overall, I’m just rinsing and repeating with different content.
I can show you how to do the same.
If you’d like to see how all of this works, I hope you’ll join me in the next Lucrative Courses cohort so that you can create an online course of your own. Some people choose to do it as a small side hustle; others choose to go all in and make it their full-time business.
It’s what I call a “freedom business” because you get to call the shots. You get to work when, where, and with whom you want, and once the course is created, you can sell it over and over.
Lucrative Courses is a small group setting, live online with me, over 4 weeks. I’ll show you how to come up with the best idea for your course, organize the material, and sell it online. Plus, I’ll give you the software to make all of that happen. (Works out nicely to now have in-house software to support my students!) 😀
You’ll get to see what goes on behind the scenes here at Lucra and join me on the journey of building an online business. I’m STOKED to get started in the next couple of weeks.
Wishing you the best and brightest in the New Year! ✨
