Digital Course Academy Success Story
Dayana Aleksandrova Certified Business Coach and Copywriter
“I followed DCA step-by-step… I mean it when I say I did EVERYTHING! The result: In just ONE year I made a total of over $58,500! I was then able to upsell my students into private coaching, which added an additional $70,000 to my income!”
Results are not guaranteed. Please see earnings disclaimer for more detail.
I had been in business for myself for 5 years and it had been a struggle at the start. I was terrible at sales, HATED doing it, and was undervaluing my worth.
So I took some business classes, and over the years saw a massive improvement in my own business!
When I started having consistent 10K months, I knew I could help others with what I had learned… and that’s when I got the idea for my course.
After all, here I was a freelance copywriter writing copy for course creators, and I thought huh, I could do this!
But here’s the thing… I didn’t know where to start when it came to creating it OR selling it. That is, until I found Amy at the end of 2022.
Now, since I have ADHD, it’s usually hard for me to focus and stay on track. A lot of times I get overwhelmed, especially with technology.
But Digital Course Academy was not overwhelming at all!
Amy makes the modules digestible and fun. They are bite-size lessons that I can pause, do the work, and then start up again.
Now when you get started… make sure to do the course calls! Amy teaches this inside of the program, and they are an absolute must because you will find out very quickly what course topic your audience wants to buy.
It’s how I came up with my course: The Online Entrepreneur Accelerator! Where I teach freelancers how they can get 1–2 consistent retainer clients so they can live the life of freedom they crave.
DCA also has the most amazing community. I have made several lifelong friends from my accountability pods. And Amy is surrounded by a whole team that helps make sure everyone is taken care of. Without a doubt DCA has been the most “student friendly” class I have ever taken!
I followed DCA step-by-step… I mean it when I say I did EVERYTHING. The result: In just ONE year I have made over $58,500!
I was then able to upsell my students into private coaching, which added an additional $70,000 to my income!
And if you are thinking I have a huge email list, guess what… it’s less than 400 people!
Not only has course creation given me an additional income, but I am finally my own boss in charge of my own schedule! I get to work on whatever projects I like, travel, and I only work a few hours a day.
Now that I have course creator confidence and a few launches under my belt, I am going back through DCA to see if there is anything I can improve in my sales process.
My next mission is to grow my email list—if I have done this well with a small list, imagine what I could create if my list were in the thousands!

If committing to creating and launching a course feels equivalent to climbing Kilimanjaro, listen up…
Every journey starts with one step. If the questions “who am I to create a course?” or “where do I even start?” are coming up for you, know that they came up for every single successful course creator you see on this page.
Whether you’ve never owned a business before, you have no idea what your course would be about, or you’re totally allergic to tech — we ALL start somewhere. What matters most is your willingness to put one foot in front of the other.
Each of these course creators started with one thing: THE COURAGE TO TRY
