From Passion to Profit: Turn Your Hobby Into Your Full-Time Career
Offered By: Skillshare
Course Description
Overview
Turn your hobby or passion into profit by learning how Joanne Molinaro, aka The Korean Vegan, transformed her side hustle into her full-time career.
When Joanne Molinaro started her career as a trial lawyer in 2004, she would’ve never imagined she would one day become The Korean Vegan, a blogger and social media star known for her plant-based Korean recipes. With 5 million fans across the net, Joanne then became a New York Times best-selling cookbook author. After seeing the potential for success with her side hustle, Joanne transitioned from being a full-time lawyer and used a solid business plan, next-level networking, and a smart budget to turn her hobby into her full-time career.
Now, Joanne wants to share how you can put together a plan to turn your passion into profit. In this class, you’ll discover how to get real about your dreams by analyzing your potential market, discovering how to monetize your hobby, and developing a strategy for business growth. You’ll then take everything you learned and put it into a high-quality pitch deck for potential investors.
With Joanne as your guide, you’ll:
- Assess the probability of your business idea’s success
- Discover the income-generating potential of your project
- Define your brand story and budget
- Determine your fundamental business identity and growth strategy
Plus, Joanne will share three downloadable templates to help prepare you for future progress. You’ll get a template for financial planning and budgeting, a business plan, and a pitch deck for a potential investor.
Whether you’ve already tried to monetize your hobby without success or have no idea where to start, you’ll leave this class with an in-depth one-, three-, and five-year plan to accomplish your exact business goals all with your unique skills, market, and industry in mind.
No business experience is required to take this class, but you should have some hobby, passion, or side hustle that you’d like to turn into your full-time career. You don’t need anything besides your computer to take this class but a notebook and pencil are recommended for note-taking.
