In this episode, we sit down with Maria Wendt, the viral entrepreneur helping over 100,000 students monetize their skills online through low-ticket digital offers. From hustling on Fiverr in college to building a $10M+ business with just 7 team members, Maria unpacks how she turned her struggles into a scalable system that works—even with a newborn in tow. She breaks down her content strategy, upsell funnels, and mindset shifts that helped her go from $100K months to nearly $700K/month. If you're serious about building online leverage through low-ticket products, this episode is a masterclass.
