WP Elevationby Troy Dean
Troy Dean is a university dropout-turned-web developer who built two recurring revenue businesses: a $25k/month WordPress plugin called Video User Manuals (1,200 active subscribers at $24/month), and WP Elevation, a membership course for WordPress freelancers launching at $97/month that generated $500-600k in its first 12 months. He leveraged his existing plugin customer base and an email list of 27,000 to drive course sales through Facebook ads ($5k spent for 220 customers in one launch) and a scarcity-driven 7-day enrollment model, achieving a 98.5% retention rate among course members.
