$10K/Month Helping People Get Into Yachting

Hugo Ortega is the founder of Superyacht Sunday School…

We help aspiring adventurers with little or no experience in boating or hospitality, begin Yachting without wasting their time and money.

Hugo spent 9 years working as a yacht crew member and has learned the nuts and bolts of how things work 🛥️

He now offers a program through his site to help people get a job in yachting.

📝 Per a recent interview, in less than 2 years…

it has grown into a full-time business earning $10K/month.

The course is priced $997 and offers split payments, so that’s about 10 new students per month 👍

It all started when…

In late 2022, Hugo began putting together some basic resources to help aspiring yacht crew members. This included PDF guides on how to create an effective CV/resume, a list of top crew recruitment agencies, and checklists outlining the steps to get started.

To get things going, Hugo turned to Facebook groups related to yachting and began engaging with the community, answering common questions, and adding value wherever he could.

Anytime someone asked a common question, Hugo made sure to answer it thoroughly. At the end, he’d say something like “If you want more resources on this topic, I’ve got a great guide here,” and include a link to opt-in to his email list.

That resulted in…

… his first $299 sale for a basic package that included a 1-hour phone consultation and those same PDF guides he had offered as opt-in incentives.

That led to the creation of Hugo’s course, which includes 👇

• Cheat sheets
• Personal coaching calls
• Visa and CV prep
• Monthly Q&A
• Community access
• A certifications and training database

He has since built a following on TikTok and Instagram talking about all things yachting, while running Facebook ads to bring traffic to his site 📈

I love how Hugo is using his past professional experience to help other people get ahead in that field.

Could you do something like that with your past experience? 🤔

Or could you partner with an expert and help them create some kind of training program?
