What would you say, if we were to tell you that you could be a wealthy college kid? What?! Does that term even exist? How does that work exactly? Unfortunately, while your college years may be some of the most fun and exciting times of your life, they’re likely to also be some of the most broke, as a large majority of college students in this country barely scrape by, let alone live well.
However, all that stands to change with the appearance of an exciting new figure on the scene. Meet Christianna Hurt, owner and founder of Wealthy College Kid, an e-commerce learning platform, designed to give students a chance to make some money in life. Now, nobody ever denied that there are many, many ways in which you can make money through the Internet. But considering the huge amount of scams out there, as well as the hardship of not knowing where to start, few actually manage to make a living through the online medium.
Enter Wealthy College Kid. A platform with over 40k students, WCK is your ticket to over-coming that initial block in the road. Granted, starting anything is difficult. But through easy and insightful videos, Christianna helps even the most confused kids out there grow into accomplished entrepreneurs by teaching them all the tips and tricks to working online – the smart way.
We were lucky enough to catch up to Christianna earlier this week and ask her a few questions we are sure everyone would like answered about her business.
So, what does Wealthy College Kid do exactly?
“Wealthy College Kid helps people learn how to make an income from various platforms online, whether it be eBay, Facebook Marketplace, Amazon, Shopify and more with little to no money needed to start.”
Impressive. And how important would you say social media is to your brand?
“Social Media is the bread and butter to my business model. It’s how I first got my message out by going live weekly with only 2 viewers to now tons, it’s how I run ads to scale businesses to multiple figures, and it all lies within the frame that Wealthy College Kid students learn to sustain and run theirs.”
There is no doubting that Christianna has come a long way. Already in her third year of business, she has amassed no less than 50 million views on her videos, as well as roughly 160K online followers, out of which about a quarter certified (and successful) students.
Wealthy College Kid is an impressive and very smart task, one that will no doubt appeal to anyone in college (and anyone who remembers being poor in college). Best of all, it allows you to earn as you learn, so that you waste no time in getting that extra bit of income in.
One thing that Christianna was keen on pointing out in our interview was that many people assume that what she does (and what she teaches her students to do) does not require any actual work.
“The biggest misconception about my industry is that you don’t have to actually work hard to get your desired results. A lot of people sign up for my courses and are surprised when they have to actually retain and apply information learned to whichever platform they’re selling on. I sacrificed my social life, sleepless nights and much more to be in the spot I am in today and still do those same things when it’s necessary for my business.”
Having talked with the highly skilled entrepreneur at the helm of it all, we’ve no doubt that Wealthy College Kid will go ever further in the next few years, and we invite you to check out all that Christianna has to teach!
