We partner with leading creators to help them build their own, independently-owned course business.
We do all the work so that you can focus on what you’re best at!
Ever heard about companies like Masterclass, Skillshare or Monthly?
They spotted the big opportunity early on.
They knew that successful creators have a valuable skill to teach, and a hungry audience that wants to learn from them!
These companies make it easy for creators to create their own course.
But there are also a few issues:
The creator only keeps a small percentage of the revenue.
The platforms own your content and customer data, you’re not in control.
They’re selling to their audience, not yours. That often results in low sales.
You’ll be asked to promote their platforms, not your own business!
We partner with leading creators and build their own course businesses. You keep control over the business and most of the revenue.
We do all the work so that you and your team can focus on what you’re best at – creating great content!
Instead, we take a minority share in the new course business so there’s no financial risk!
First, we properly monetize your personal brand by building a course business you own and control.
Use your personal brand to promote your course business.
Build external traffic sources for your business brand, so that it can continue to grow without you.

We run an Inner Circle community for some of the biggest YouTube Creators in the education space. Once per year we also run in-person events for YouTuber Creators who are building course businesses.

“I’ve been working with Creator Empires for years now and they’ve literally 10x’d my course business. I started with just a single language course that I made myself, but they took that as the basis for Street-Smart Languages and built an entire course ecosystem around it that’s now close to generating 7-figures annually. With my input on course philosophy, they did most of the heavy lifting such as course creation and marketing, leaving me time to focus on content creation. Would not hesitate to recommend their services. “

‘‘I have enjoyed working with Creator Empires after meeting Jan in Dubai in March of 2022. Jan was instrumental in helping us develop a go-to-market online course. They have all aspects of the journey covered and they were incredibly engaged and attentive to our needs. They always felt embedded into our team and wanted the same outcome we did. I recommend working with them to develop your online course business.’’
– Steve Huldford, CEO Underknown
‘’ When we first met Olly and Jan we had a huge audience who wanted to buy from us, but we had no systems in place and very few courses. They shifted our entire mindset, and helped us to create a comprehensive course ecosystem that has a 7-figure income, and helps tens of thousands of students across the world, with the majority returning time and time again.’’

‘‘These guys are the best! When we hopped on a call for our first project they made sure to collect as much detail as possible to make the best site for me. Within a matter of days they finished the new landing page. I was surprised by how quickly they were able to make such a beautiful page! The last time I hired somebody for a similar job it took over a month to finish it and it was nowhere near the quality of theirs. I highly recommend you work with these guys!’’
“We worked on making my language business more sustainable long-term, and as a result, we’ve been making 25% more each month, while working six times less! At first I couldn’t believe it, but it’s been over a year now, and business just keeps growing. I wouldn’t have made the move without their ideas and guidance, but wow, I’m glad that I did! Thanks to Creator Empires for helping me to have more free time to spend with my family and brainstorm new ideas for the business, all while making more money! “
