There is also a tendency with these kind of businesses to happily disclose sales, but not much beyond that. Sure, making $200k a month is great for selling courses but they don’t tell you they had to spend $199k in facebook ads to get there.

Most of these businesses would be doing great if they could make $200k for 199k in advertising, most are earning $200 after spending every last penny they had on advertising.
