Part 7/9:
- Courses: The largest earning segment came from my online course called “The Beginner's Guide to YouTube.” A pre-sale brought in $5,000 immediately, with total earnings from the course amounting to $1,643. While it provided significant revenue, I realized that the online course market isn’t where my greatest passion lies.
The Final Takeaway: Total Earnings
Combining all income streams, my first year on YouTube culminated in a total of $33,750. While it may not seem like a staggering figure—especially in a high cost of living area—this experience afforded me opportunities beyond financial gain. As I traveled, networked, and connected with creators, the personal growth and experiences overshadowed the monetary aspect.
