Today's guest on The Flipped Lifestyle Podcast is Kevin Depew from RelaxAndLearnGuitar.com!
Kevin has been on the podcast more than anyone not named Shane or Jocelyn Sams! He is one of our biggest success stories, and he just had his biggest month yet: over $10k! Not only did he do it in March, but he did it in April, too!
We take a deep dive into his YouTube strategies and the tactics he uses there to get more people into his membership. We discuss doing challenges for our communities and always taking a service-first approach in our online businesses.
Kevin is one of our favorite examples because he's been so successful but also because he pivoted from an early idea. If what you start with doesn't work, KEEP GOING!

| 0:43.0 | Hey, what's going on? I am very happy to be here and I'm really happy to see you again. |
| 0:48.8 | Dude, you sent me a text the other day and it said, just wanted to let you know, |
| 0:54.0 | we hit our first five figure month and then then I get on the call today. And you're like, and now I've done it back to back. So that's what we're going to be celebrating. But before we do that, tell everybody who's listening, if they've not heard one of your previous episodes or they don't know who you are. Tell them a little bit about you, about your background, and about your online business. I'm Kevin DePue. I run a, well, I should say we. It's a husband, |

But a five figure month is when you make like over 10,000 in revenue, six figures, 100,000 for the year or whatever. But like, did you see this coming when you were doing it?
