Yes, you can also sell out. I can't tell you where that line is, but I think you know it in your heart when you do it.

  2. online courses
  3. coaching- group or individual 
  4. membership sites
  5. paid teaching - at a school or workshops online or in person
  6. affiliate sales
  7. sponsored blog posts or social media posts
