How I Made $6.9 Million Writing 2 Hours A Day
from The Koe Cast · host Dan Koe
If you've been here a while, you know this is pretty much a re-recording of a previous video. There's a reason for that: to show that by doing this for multiple years, the results start to compound. In my first year I made around $10,000 (outside of previous freelancing). Year two was $100k, then $150k, then $800k (previous video), then ~$4m, then a little under $2m (because I split traffic to a new business). While there are actionable parts of this video, I want the main lesson to be this: iterate on a system, in a high leverage area, for multiple years, not a few weeks. ––– Resources Mentioned ––– Beehiiv for newsletters/blog: https://thedankoe.com/get/beehiiv Kortex for writing and notes: https://kortex.co The free second brain course: https://community.kortex.co ––– Free Guides & Mini Courses ––– One-Person Business Foundations (free): https://theone-personbusiness.com Generate Infinite Creative Ideas (free): https://7daystogeniusideas.com 13 Brand, Content, & Marketing Trainings (free): https://theone-personbusiness.com/#trainings ––– Kortex ––– My writing and note-taking app: https://kortex.co The Kortex Discord: https://discord.gg/kortex The persuasive thinking template: https://app.kortex.co/public/document/bec7fcec-d76c-4d00-8669-37f53892fead Free second brain course (and community): https://community.kortex.co The Writer's Bootcamp (now with YouTube strategy): https://bootcamp.kortex.co ––– My Products ––– My book: http://theartoffocusbook.com One-Person Business Launchpad: https://thedankoe.com/get/opbl My Idea Museum (write faster): https://thedankoe.com/get/idea-museum 2 Hour-Writer (foundational skill): https://2hourwriter.com ––– More Content ––– The Koe Letter - the written version of this video: https://thedankoe.com/letters This podcast was originally a YouTube video: https://youtu.be/jhoG3WcECnw ––– Socials ––– Twitter: https://twitter.com/thedankoe Instagram: https://instagram.com/thedankoe YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/DanKoeTalks LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/thedankoe
