In my online education business, I've sold over $1M worth of courses through a single channel: YouTube.
In this case study, I’ll walk you through the strategy behind it and share the most important lessons I’ve learned while building a YouTube audience that generates sales.
In my online education business, I've sold over $1M worth of courses through a single channel: YouTube.
In this case study, I’ll walk you through the strategy behind it and share the most important lessons:
Based in London, I first turned to YouTube as a way to attract clients to my newly launched consulting business.
A few months of trial and error and a fair share of embarrassment later... my channel started gaining traction! And before I knew it, with just a few thousand subscribers, I was fully booked.
My second channel, FasTrack IELTS, has grown into one of the largest in its niche—1.8 million subscribers—and generated over $1,000,000 in course sales. Built without a big team, this business stays lean, flexible and highly profitable.
My background in business management, slight obsession with analytics, and years of trial and error helped me triple the revenue I generate from one thousand views, creating a reliable income stream that works year after year.
While getting views on YouTube is fun (sometimes), turning those views into sales is where the real magic happens. I can help you grow a YouTube channel that works harder for you and your business (not the other way around).
Get discovered by the people most likely to buy from you. A lot of them.
We’ll develop a YouTube strategy that draws in the right viewers and builds trust by delivering value and clarity at every stage. That means:
✔ Channel positioning that speaks directly to your core customer
✔ Topics and formats that deliver both value and views
✔ Video packaging (titles & thumbnails) that drive discovery
✔ Retention tactics that help your content perform and convert
There’s no single “right way” to approach YouTube. You can go niche and targeted, or broad and magnetic—as long as your content resonates with the people you’re here to help.
Turn those views into paying customers—on and off YouTube.
Once you’ve got attention, the next step is to turn it into revenue. We do this through two main pathways:
Direct Sales on YouTube
✔ Find the types of promotions that work best for your core customers and your offers
✔ Identify which videos convert best
✔ Add product promotions inside your videos in a way that feels relevant and helpful, and converts
Lead Capture & Funnels
✔ Most sales happen outside of YouTube. We’ll find the best ways to guide viewers onto platforms you own (usually your email list)
✔ Offer high-value lead magnets that your viewers genuinely want
✔ Optimize landing pages and sign-up flows to minimize friction
✔ Use thoughtful email sequences and sales pages that walk your audience toward a purchase
✔ Keep the whole journey from video to product clear, intentional and cohesive
This step is about more than just selling; it’s about aligning your content, your messaging, and your offers so that it all feels like one seamless experience.
Track what’s working. Fix what’s not. Scale what converts.
Once your funnel is in place, the next step is to increase its efficiency. We’ll set up full-funnel analytics so you can clearly see where your revenue is coming from and how to grow it.
We look at:
✔ Which types of videos drive the most conversions
✔ Which offers and lead magnets bring in the most revenue
✔ How your audience moves from first click to final sale
✔ Where you can improve conversions across the funnel
That’s where we test, adjust and double down on what works, so you’re not just growing views, but increasing revenue per view and making your YouTube channel work harder for your business.
