When I first started the solopreneur journey 6 months ago, one thing was clear to me.

There are so many ways to build an online business.

Too many even. The current starting point is being lost.

  • Where do I start?

  • Who do I learn from?

  • What skills are important?

  • What type of business do I want to build?

And it’s not because we lack information or resources.

It’s all out there.

What’s really lacking is how to navigate it.

So after countless hours of YouTube. Countless useless courses on Udemy & Coursera. I finally found how to get real, practical courses that teach you skills to build real businesses

👉 Twitter (Now X)

There are tons of creator-made courses on Twitter, some are incredibly valuable.

Now that was like finding a treasure trove

But the problem was still there.

  • Who do I follow?

  • Which courses are the best?

  • And it’s tedious to find courses

And it led me to …

The Problem

Courses to learn important business skills are accessible and in high volume.

But few of them are as practical as creator courses advertised on Twitter.

Navigating that however, is extremely confusing and time-consuming.

Nobody knows what courses are the best and how to find them.

With the rise of Solopreneurship, people need guidance & a sense of community more than ever before.

Experience with the problem

I have taken 10+ courses in the past 6 months across coding, web design, copywriting, personal branding & AI.

All the ones that actually helped me to build an online business were courses I found on Twitter.

I have over 400 hours of Twitter content creation experience and have seen & experienced how hard it is to navigate and find the best creators and the best courses available.
