THIS ALREADY WORKS
The most successful creators in the world figured this out years ago.
This isn't a new idea. It isn't untested. Creators at every level, in every niche, are doing it right now - building products their audiences actually want to buy instead of waiting for AdSense to change their life.
​
You don't know where to start or what actually works
You don't have the time - you're already flat out creating
You want to focus on content, not learn a whole new skill set
You just plain don't want to do it - that's not what you signed up for!
If you're like most creators, you already know you could be monetizing much more than just AdSense
AdSense is how YouTube pays you. Products are how creators pay themselves.

His real wealth comes from owned products - built on the back of the audience he spent years creating. The audience was always the asset. YouTube was always just the platform.
