The fake out

Available Domain: Nogurusallowed.com

1. Problem/Opportunity❓

The Problem/Opportunity: Fake gurus are everywhere. The second you type “make money online” into Google you’ll be hit with a wave of rented lambos, fake screenshots and dudes misquoting successful people.

But the internet is full of legit experts out there who have an undeniable stack of proof that they are who they say they are and that they know their stuff. They’re just drowned out by the scammers out there. Until now.

Market Size: Revenue in the Online Education market is projected to reach $185bn in 2024

2. Solution ✅

The Idea: A platform which teaches people how to make money in different verticals from vetted experts whose claims have been audited

How it Works:

• Users join the platform, pay a monthly subscription fee and can take an unlimited amount of courses on the platform from experts

• Experts can apply to create courses on the platform and in order to be eligible to join they submit to an audit of their earnings to prove that any earnings claims they’ve made are accurate

Go-to-market: Find gurus who are already transparent about their earnings/successes and onboard them to the platform

Monetisation: Monthly subscription fee

Startup Costs: You could use a third party platform to create the MVP, making startup costs minimal

3. How You’ll Get Rich 💰

Exit Strategy: Get acquired by a business like Skillshare who have a similar business model

Exit Multiple: Would likely sell for a 5x - 6x revenue multiple

THE MONEYSHOT

1 Billion Views to Sell 100k Blocks of Butter

2 years ago Thomas Straker, a chef turned creator (with a michelin star to his name for god measure), decided to go foraging for wild garlic (as we all do form time to time).

He filmed a short video of him making wild garlic butter…which went super viral.

So he turned it into a series called “all things butter” and 90 videos later he had earned 1 billion views on the series. So he decided to launch his own range of butters called…you guessed it…“all things butter.”

In the first 10 weeks he sold 100k blocks of butter and since then the product been listed in UK supermarkets such as Sainsbury’s.

This goes to show that if you can build distribution the sales take care of themselves.
