Data Analyst expectations VS Reality

The Challenge: Piecing Together Multiple Product OfferingsĀ 

In less than three years since launching his business, Avery has expanded in several ways. His Data Analytics Accelerator program is his main product offering, but he also offers a free masterclass, runs a weekly newsletter, offers 1:1 coaching, and hosts a successful podcast. All of that to say, he knew needed a way to manage all of these components in order to scale.Ģż

ā€œWhen you're running an online business, it's really easy to feel like you're kind of Frankensteining your business together with different softwares,ā€ he says.Ģż

Avery tried multiple solutions before finding 51ĀŅĀ×, including Podia, Teachable, HighLevel, and ClickFunnels, but none of them gave him everything he needed to seamlessly run his business.Ģż

ā€œA lot of those try to be all in one, but they don't feel as complete as 51ĀŅĀ×,ā€ says Avery.

ā€ā€œFor instance, ClickFunnels’ user experience is not very great.ā€

The Solution: Building and Earning on 51ĀŅĀ×

After learning about 51ĀŅĀ× and not finding complete success with other platforms, he decided to give it a try.Ģż

His first impression of 51ĀŅĀ×’s all-in-one platform was how intuitive it was to navigate and start building your offerings.Ģż

ā€œWhen you first log in,ā€ he recalls, ā€œit's very clear and it's easy for any beginner to get started.ā€Ā 

Avery also recalls how 51ĀŅĀ× ties everything together — from courses and memberships to landing pages, analytics, and payments — and makes it easy to find in one place.Ģż

But what made him the most confident that 51ĀŅĀ× was the right solution over other platforms was once he began seeing money come in.Ģż

ā€œHonestly, it was the fact that the other ones were kind of failing, and I started making money on 51ĀŅĀ×,ā€ Avery recalls.

ā€œThe proof is in the pudding when you're making money.ā€

Last year, Data Career Jumpstart made nearly $500K in revenue.Ģż

ā€œ51ĀŅĀ× is critical for my business because my users have a great experience and they're in a great learning environment,ā€ says Avery. ā€œEverything's in one screen for me to see and be able to go back and forth really easily. And it was super easy to get started.ā€

In just two and half years since launching, Avery’s business has allowed him to quit his day job and replace his six-figure income by being his own boss and working a fraction of the time.Ģż

Outside of his own success, Avery has helped hundreds of people transition into a data analytics career which has led to millions of dollars in salary increases.Ģż
