Who are you and what course have you created?
My name is Gianni Oliva but people honestly call me Oli Cashflow! My desire to bring positive change to my community came after being incarcerated and finding Gods purpose which led me to embrace my role as a day trader and soon to be an educator. Leveraging my deep knowledge and practical experience, I embarked on a journey to break the stigma around online education and open doors for those who share my passion for financial independence. As a trading instructor who was saved by Grace, I have made it my mission to simplify the complexities of trading while also leading my students with faith, making it accessible and understandable for individuals of all backgrounds and demographics.
My course covers simple yet in depth strategies anyone can use to make money online as a daytrader by leveraging foreign currencies, it sounds complicated but basically I teach people the easiest and most independent way to make money online in 2024 for a fraction of what ANYONE in the industry charges!
What market does your online course serve?
My program serves those that are eager to create a long term additional income stream for themselves from their phone or computer. Age or demographics don’t matter as long as you’re willing to learn, we have the resources to teach you how to make daily income from investing.
What’s the biggest benefit of taking your course?
Complete honest, valuable and transparent resources in an industry full of lies, by going through our program we equip our students not only to navigate the markets confidently, but profitably.
How did you get into the market?
I’ve been personally investing for a while, but my close friends asked me to show them what they knew, and then they told their friends and before I knew it I had 30 people asking for help at the same time, so the idea to make a course allowed me to not only help more people without losing my mind or shutting down, and I also got a little bonus from it! A few years later we have over 500 students and have forever changed countless lives
Why did you decide to create an online course in the first place?
When my friends kept coming to me for help it made me ask – why? Why is there not more access to this type of information publicly? Where can people learn how to invest or make money from home in the traditional education system? They Cant. So i had a vision to not only create a leading program in the financial literacy space, but also help as many people from areas like mine access the financial secrets that are hidden from us
Did you have any moments of doubt before you created/launched it?
When we started the company we were in a very tricky area in our lives and I was only around 21 years old with no guidance, so I guess you could say I was scared… Did I doubt? Never for a second. My faith in my creator and purpose for me has kept me steadfast and focused no matter how hard or confusing any of this got or ever will get, and trust me it gets hard!
If so what made you turn it around and do it anyway?
I know myself and who made me the way I am, do the work and Faith will do the rest.
What’s your online course like?
My course is more of an extremely comprehensive program! Its compromised of interactive videos, quizzes, assignments, guides and a community of teachers and students to support each other.
How long did it take you to create your course?
Initially from thought to first sale the process was maybe 2 months, but we’ve redeveloped and updated it completely over since then over the last few years.
Tell us a little about the process of launching your course and getting your first sale(s).
What we did is we had a pre launch announcement and build up which lasted about 15-20 days while we got everything ready. During this time we had our small group of affiliates and I work together to get a massive audience onto a private zoom call by reaching out to people and posting a ton of content. On that call we had a presentation breaking downpour opportunity and offer and afterwards we called and closed one by one… It wasn’t pretty but it worked and got us the results needed to get us where we are now!
Do you have a lead magnet?
Well , NOW we do! I didn’t know about any of that when I started, just had great service and great intentions for my students! Now we have free ebooks, calls and groups as lead magnets that seem to work pretty well with helping our future clients see what were all about before purchasing.
What’s the traffic strategy that works best for you?
What's worked great for me is being completely transparent with everything I do and say, while video documenting my journey from day 1 to help gain trust from my audience. - Gianni Oliva Click To TweetBy staying consistent in those areas it leads to an overflowing lead and referral system.
What online course platform are you using?
We used Thinkific from our launch all the way up until November of 2023 where we switched to a platform called GoHighLevel which is 1000% better in every way shape and form.
Do you like it?
Thinkific, no.
GHL, Yes.
Are there any features you wish it had?
Thinkific, Everything you need for marketing and sales and more customizability.
GHL, No.
What made you decide to use your chosen platform over others?
GoHighLevel has more advanced features and tools all in one place compared to using all of the different tools we had to use before. We wanted to build funnels, have automation, send sms and email campaigns, create workflows and have a crm etc. and after months of searching we found GHL which does EVERYTHING that all these platforms do for a fraction of the cost and I’m not even affiliated with them.
What other tools do you use to run your online course business?
Now, just social media, discord and GHL.
What books or training programs have you found useful on your journey to a successful business owner that others might find valuable too?
Think and Grow Rich, The Purpose Driven Life, 10x Rule, The Secret, The Holy Bible.
Do you have any big mistakes you’ve made along the way that you’d be willing to share?
Putting too much trust in others, along with convince everyone including myself I’m working hard and giving 100% of my effort, even though in reality I know I’m procrastinating on the things I need to do to grow.
Please share some idea of revenue.
We had a very successful launch and journey as a course and company, we had a large launch and in our first three months we made over $25,000 and our largest month to date is $9,400. - Gianni Oliva Click To TweetSince 2024 has started we are almost at $10,000 in sales in about 35 days all through automation without me really having to do anything, were hopeful that this year is the year we double our student base and start earning around 12-15k a month in personal sales, not even including our affiliates.
Please tell us a little about what the money you’ve earned from your course has done for you.
Building this course has changed my life in every way imaginable and it will only continue to grow and get better, I was already self employed as a full time day trader but the course has definitely relieved stress and helped me open up a new career path while being able to travel, make extra money and also most importantly help people that need it start making money with trading and learn a financial skillset that will allow them to never have to rely on a job again! The feeling of positive impact really is a rush of dopamine you can’t duplicate anywhere else even though I know that sounds corny.
In addition to revenue are there any numbers you would like to share?
Since July of 2021:
- Over $200,000 worth of collective profits for our STUDENTS investment portfolios
- 90% success rate (Graduating and actively used our strategies to profit) among our students
- Over 520 students of different demographics across the GLOBE
- Over $100,000 in revenue (Around 75k net) without ANY ad-spend or paid marketing.
- Awarded 2022 AND 2023 Best Educational Consultant of Delray Beach, FL
- Featured in “Go Solo” – An online magazine for Entrepreneurs and Business Owners
What has creating your course done for you personally?
It’s given me an unparalleled fire in my life, its taught me leadership, discipline and self belief! The lessons and memories I’ve made along the way are truly irreplaceable and I’m forever grateful I chose the harder path of entrepreneurship than the traditional path of conformity!
Do you have a story of a transformation from any of your clients?
On my website we have plenty of success stories! One that comes to mind is a student named Israel who I met at an event I was running in south side Chicago. He was an individual who struggled with depression, anxiety and fear about his life and future. He had joined my program and when he met me in person he gave me a hug and almost started crying, he said that the course not only changed his view on money and helped him start earning extra income, but I was able to help change his point of view about his beliefs and limitations about life… He said he stopped believing in himself for years and that by joining my program and hearing me as a mentor he was able to not only get out of his cycle but start getting to new levels… What made it even more powerful is Israel who is a first generation American who wasn’t in school anymore and was barely even able to read and write properly…
Israel is still with us, and has been able to transform his life not just emotionally but also has made THOUSANDS of dollars in profit when before he has absolutely no idea what trading was and thought he was stuck working at a job he hated.
This really lit my fire and gave me the drive to not stop there, but change my mission to a global scale.
What advice do you have for people just starting out? What do you wish you knew before you started?
Start utilizing systems for your business ASAP! Systems are the most important aspect in your business and without them you can't expect to survive let alone scale. - Gianni Oliva Click To TweetAside from systems you need to have proper planning for your business and reverse engineer your process. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail!
