How to Replace Your 9-5 Income and Thrive (the mathematical breakdown)

steering wheel and purse

When I began, my primary aim was straightforward: replace my 9-5 income, which was around $5300 per month.

Amidst the plethora of inflated numbers in today’s discourse, $5300 might not seem like much to boast about. Yet, it’s this very income that transforms life’s quality.

It’s the difference between clocking in 40+ hours every week on a rigid schedule versus a few flexible hours daily.

It’s the contrast between having only weary evenings and fleeting weekends with family versus abundant free time.

It’s the distinction between needing permission and PTO for a day off versus full control over my time, and consequently, my life.

Most folks overlook how remarkably easy it is to substitute a 9-5 income with an online business. Allow me to illustrate precisely how using actual (rounded) figures from my own venture.

HERE’S THE REAL-LIFE MATH DEMONSTRATING THE SIMPLICITY OF REPLACING A 9-5 INCOME:

Once again, I aimed to earn $5,300 monthly to replace my 9-5 income.

I crafted an online course priced at $27, with an optional supplementary course available for an extra $27. On average, each customer spent around $41.

I promoted my course through Pinterest ads. To drive 333 people daily from the ad to my course sales page, the ad spend amounted to $97.

Out of the 333 individuals viewing my sales page, 2% made a purchase (this is the sales page conversion rate).

NOW, LET’S BREAK DOWN THE FORMULA:

333 views x 2% conversion rate = 6.66 customers per day

6.66 customers x $41 average spend per customer = $273 in gross sales per day

$273 sales – $97 ad spend = $176 net profit per day

($176 per day x 365 days)/12 months

equals $5,355 per month.

I essentially replaced my 9-5 income by selling a $27 course (plus a $27 upsell) to 6 or 7 people a day. That’s all it took.

And here’s where online business becomes truly exciting: SCALING.

Want to double that income? Just double your ad spend.

Want to triple it? Develop another, higher-priced course and offer it to those who bought your first.

I’ll delve further into this in another post, but I hope you’re beginning to see the enchantment here!

You seriously don’t need to spend your time working 5 days a week for just 2 days off, seeking PTO to be with family during holidays, and crossing your fingers for a 3% raise…

…all to still barely scrape by.

There IS an alternative, and it’s simpler, smoother, and quicker than ever.

Start thinking like an entrepreneur and witness your life transform dramatically.
