Launched in 2013, this Info Product and YouTube business operates in the evergreen adult piano education niche. The business sells prerecorded online piano courses through an established evergreen email and webinar funnel, supported by a YouTube channel with more than 100k subscribers and an active email list of 24k subscribers. Key strengths include a long operating history, a mature library of digital course content, established marketing funnels, and a low current owner workload of approximately 30 minutes per week. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time and installment-based course sales, with additional income from the YouTube Partner Program through Google AdSense. Website traffic is led by Direct traffic, Organic Search and Paid Search. YouTube traffic is driven by YouTube Search, Advertising and External traffic. The YouTube channel has received very limited recent attention, with only two videos published in the past two years, creating a clear opportunity for a new owner to resume consistent content production. The seller created the core course and is the instructor and on-camera presenter throughout the main course materials, as well as appearing in YouTube videos. The seller is comfortable with all existing business-specific videos, courses, and related materials remaining with the business following the sale. Some additional courses are taught by other instructors and are also fully owned and included. There is no fixed schedule for producing new course lessons, while blog and SEO content is added or refreshed periodically using freelancers and AI-assisted support. One US-based independent contractor currently handles customer support for approximately four hours per week and is willing to continue with a buyer, while a second contractor providing limited technical and operational support will not transfer. Growth opportunities include restarting regular YouTube publishing, leveraging the existing subscriber base and evergreen video library, expanding the affiliate program, and using new content to introduce a new face to the audience while continuing to monetize the existing course catalog and sales funnels. Disclaimers: The business offers an optional $197 “Live Lessons” upsell that includes three one-on-one lessons with the seller. While this upsell is occasionally purchased, customers have rarely redeemed the lessons. No one-on-one lessons or calls have been delivered in the past 12 months, and only two lessons have been provided in total over the past 6–7 years.

Transition

Seller supportThe seller is willing to offer 30 days of email and scheduled phone or video-call support, including walkthroughs of the course catalog, website, sales funnels, email automations, customer-support processes, and existing operating documentation. The seller will also explain how the systems fit together, introduce the buyer to Jacquie for potential continued student-support arrangements, and cooperate with Empire Flippers and the buyer on asset migration and handoff questions.
