Today's listener is working on a website that helps medical coders earn free continuing

education credit. It's often called CEs continuing education or continual professional

development, CPD, sometimes some other acronyms. But the big picture is that it is a big industry, a big industry in

itself, one with a lot of opportunities. So this listener is wondering, how could this project be

monetized? Like they're making this website. It helps medical coders. These are people that need to

earn continuing education credit on an ongoing, typically annual or every other year basis. And they have to pay for that.

There are companies, organizations, and individuals making good money providing these types

of accredited courses. So how could this person essentially be a middleman, a middle person?

How could this project be monetized? I thought this is an interesting question. We

featured some stories like the Australian architect who leaves her marketing agency to launch a

directory for other architects with the same need. Basically, that directory goes on to earn six

figures a year. So that could be an interesting comp to look at. But this situation is also a little

different. So let's get to the details of her question. I'm going to do my best to provide a helpful response. And just remember, if you want to do something totally different, that's the whole point. You're probably not going to do this exact business model, but there's something you can do that will help you earn extra money. That's why we make the show every day. All right, stay tuned for the detailed question

and my answer. I make thanks to our partner, Notion, for sponsoring today's episode.

Notion is a pretty cool tool. I've been using it for years, and now they've got something new.

Notions, all new custom agents. Custom agents. Just imagine if like all of the quick questions that you get from email

or direct messages or something else, what if they disappeared? And an AI agent took care of them,

but also did a good job, you know. Well, with Notion's new custom agents, the busy work is

handled. A Q&A agent can pull from your existing knowledge and notion share answers

directly in Slack so your team gets the instant answers it needs without constantly interrupting

your own work. I've been playing around with custom agents. It is a fun and helpful process.

And just in case you don't know, Notion, it is an AI-powered, connected workspace for teams.
