Lydia M.
Your teacher

hi, i'm lydia

I make business education videos on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and Facebook. I made money on YouTube before YouTube ever monetized my channel, through affiliate links, my own services and digital products.

"How did I get clients for my agency? YouTube. It's the fastest way."

I've partnered with brands like HighLevel, Elementor, Printify, Doba and EverBee. Now I'm teaching you the exact system.

Questions

good to know

Do I need a lot of subscribers to make money?

No. Most of what you’ll learn (affiliate sales, services and your own products) works from your very first videos, long before YouTube monetizes your channel.

Do I need expensive gear?

No. You can film everything with your phone, and there’s a full mini course on how to make it look professional.

Should I start with a mini course or the program?

If you want one specific result, start with a mini course. If you want us to work on your channel with you, from your strategy and branding to your monetization plan, join the 3-week program.

How long is the program, and can I join again?

The program runs for 3 weeks. You post at least 9 long-form videos and leave with 15 video ideas to keep posting. You can join again as many times as you need to grow or get new ideas for your channel.

I’m a beginner. Is this for me?

Yes. We help you build a professional channel from the start, including your profile image, banner and first video ideas.
