His YouTube Business Earned $236,000 in 1 Month

That’s Ali Abdaal’s YouTube business 🤑

His main channel has 4 million subscribers and he describes it like so…

Hey, I’m Ali, a former doctor turned entrepreneur. On this channel, we explore evidence-based strategies and tools that can help us be more productive, and build a life that we love.

A few days ago Ali shared his business financials from January.

• Revenue = £195,177 ($236K)
• Expenses = £179,334 ($217K)
• Profit = £15,843 ($19K)

I was shocked when I saw those numbers. $236K revenue and only $19K profit?? 🤯

But it seems Ali is intent on building a world-class team…

almost half of our £140k of expenses went into salaries.

A good chunk of expenses is dedicated to ‘staff training’

I really want everyone in my team to be a world expert at the thing that they do (e.g. editing / writing / etc), so I’m getting everyone on the team a personal coach to help with this goal.

I wouldn’t bet against a business that invests so much in talent.

These were Ali’s top 5 revenue streams in January 👇

• YouTube Ads = £50,582
• Sponsorships (YouTube) = £45,050
• Teaching (Skillshare) = £41,542
• Sponsorships (Social Media) = £45,050
• Affiliate Income = £18,397

(Btw, I reviewed Ali’s Part-Time YouTuber Academy a few months back.)
