What high‑leverage skills or systems should my audience master to reach $2 million a year without growing the audience size?
First I take stock of where we are. I have roughly 50 k followers across platforms, which currently generates about $128 k profit per month, or roughly $2.56 of profit per member. Michelle’s question is how to raise that per‑member profit to about $3.34 without adding more members. To do that I need higher‑ticket products and additional revenue streams. My current product, Maker School, is $66 /month. I’m capped at that price point, so I can’t simply raise it. I’m thinking about creating a third, higher‑ticket offering—something like a $20 k‑per‑year advisory or mastermind that takes a percentage of the client’s revenue. For example, a $6 k annual fee plus 5 % of revenue would generate about $36 k from a client making $50 k a month. The idea is to layer a low‑ticket (Maker School), a mid‑ticket, and a high‑ticket offering that helps members monetize, retain, and convert better, thereby increasing the average revenue per member from $2.56 to $3.34. Simpler options like selling templates could also add revenue, but the most direct way is to introduce a high‑ticket community or advisory service that captures a share of the growth we help generate.
