208. Brad Hussey on evolving from web designer to creator/educator

How to Sell Advice

I recently had the privilege of interviewing Brad Hussey—a former web designer turned creator, educator, and community builder.

In this episode, we talk about things like:

• How he made the leap from employee to full-time web designer
• How he successfully sells web design courses on platforms like Udemy, Awwwards, Teachable, and other places
• How these courses lead to people hiring him for web design services, training, coaching and even requesting more courses—creating a flywheel for his business
• How he leveraged his expertise into a partnership with Wix, where he hosts and maintains the Creative Crew Community
• How his partnership with Wix is structured and run in terms of compensation and accountabilities
• A breakdown of his revenue streams, including services, community, courses, sponsorships, ad revenue, and affiliates
• His thoughts on publishing his courses on his own website and on learning platforms for a double benefit
• How he built and monetized two YouTube channels with tens of thousands of followers across both channels
• His advice on how to grow a YouTube channel—and how it benefits his business
• And a lot more!
