Here’s my business model.

I support myself in two ways: online courses in the short term and investing in the long term.

When people find me online, I encourage them to sign up for my email list where I share links to Twitter, YouTube videos, podcasts, and long-form essays.

Everything is driven by my Audience-First Products thesis.

It has three steps: (1) share ideas consistently, (2) grow an audience, and (3) either invest in the audience or build products for them. The flywheel funds my long-form essays — my true passion. https://twitter.com/david_perell/status/1264712809461538817?s=20">https://twitter.com/david_per...

If you& #39;re interested in building something like this for yourself, sign up for my 7-day email course.

In it, I share the basics of writing online which is the best place to begin. https://ageofleverage.com/course ">https://ageofleverage.com/course&qu...

I& #39;m inspired by Walt Disney& #39;s original business model.

At some point, I asked myself: "How can I translate that into a flywheel for myself?"

Like Disney, it all starts with the audience. The possibilities open up once you& #39;ve built relationships at scale. So that& #39;s my plan.
