There are plenty of online gurus out there selling the dream of passive income as the ultimate solution to all your problems. They paint a picture of you sipping margaritas on the beach while your digital products sell like hotcakes. Sounds amazing, right? 

In reality scaling by selling digital products is not that simple. 

In episode 127 of Get richer, teacher podcast I decided to tackle the burning question: Is creating digital products and passive income really the right move for you when you want to scale beyond one-to-one teaching?

In this episode, we'll explore:

• Whether diving into the world of digital products is the right step for scaling your teaching business.
• The realities of selling digital products and why it may not be as simple as it appears.
• How group programs provide a sustainable and profitable alternative to one-to-one teaching and digital products.
• The benefits of group programs for both teachers and students and why I see them as the natural progression from one-to-one teaching
