A few months ago I posted up on TheRiseToTheTop.com an interview and case study with a fella from over the pond in England: Nick Stephenson.

Nick launched his very first online course (called Your First 10,000 Readers which helps authors who want to improve their marketing efforts and build their platform) to the tune of $130,208. That is not a misprint, hah. $130,208!
