💻 Millions from a travel directory
Pieter makes almost $3M a year working by himself.
And all while traveling the world.
Seems like the dream right?
If you’re on Twitter you’ve probably heard of Pieter Levels (aka levelsio).
He’s made over 70 products over the last decade.
And most have failed. But the ones that succeeded have made him millions.
How did he do it? And more importantly, how can we replicate that success?
By digging into his products, you can see his exact strategies that worked.
Before 2014 he had a bunch of small and non-impressive projects. But then he built NomadList.
Overnight NomadList—and Pieter—went viral. And all by accident.
Since then he’s been churning out products that all together are earning him around $3 million a year.
That one success paved the way for all of his future successful products. But how did he get this first one to work?
I go into detail here, but here are the highlights:
He went viral in 2014 for publicly claiming he would build 12 startups in 12 months. That marketing gave him a strong following, and one of the products was NomadList
He accidentally launched the product one night, and in the morning it went viral 😆
He has a super simple (and effective) strategy for how much to charge
