5. Create Online Courses or Workshops

Writers with expertise can monetize their knowledge through platforms like Teachable or Skillshare. Courses on creative writing, copywriting, or storytelling can fetch $50–$500 per student. In 2024, online course revenue for creators grew by 20%, per Teachable data. Tip: Offer free webinars to attract students, then upsell courses. Promote on X with clips of your teaching style, as @WriteCoach does.
