CMO at EDUdebt | Corporate Trainer & Executive Coach for Personal Branding
Spendless Academy was born during the pandemic, when we visioned the rise of LIVE webinars and online learning.
Since 1st May 2020, it has educated 8000 professionals from 32 countries across 400 webinars, and on boarded 200 experts.
Raising a small capital in July 2020 at an 8 digit evaluation, we went on to implement coaching call feature that allows an expert to be booked & paid for mentorship coaching from anyone who wants to learn.
We run corporate workshops and virtual events hosted on our platform. We ran 24 series of LinkedIn LIVE events (since November 2020) exposing our brand to more than 65,000 users of LinkedIn. This year, we aim to run 3 times weekly to reach out to 350,000 users on LinkedIn to introduce our platform to them. We've started giving away Kindle weekly to reward users globally. We also acquired 30 blog sites to feature written articles of our experts and events.
We also started offering user credits in USD granted to the user after successful completion of attending any free webinars on our platform. These credits accumulates and can be offset for paid workshops, up to 100%.
We are seeking for angel investors to support our second round of capital investments, to scale our users and build our resource team.
We believe LIVE streaming is the future of business relationship and effective online learning.

Relationship is the future.
It's never about how many followers you have on LinkedIn, in fact the more followers you have - the more you'd struggled to monetise. You need to capture the niche market that genuinely have interest in what you represent and make time to listen in. By attending your free webinars, you naturally foster a trust bond with the audience who intentionally want to be there and listen in. After learning more about you and your depth of knowledge, there is a much higher chances of converting those audience to your paying customer potentially for the long term.
Honestly, trying to acquire new clients every month is time consuming and not cost effective. How about securing 10-20 good paying clients that renew your services or coaching program year after year?
Who can list webinars with Spendless Academy?
Industry Leaders, Corporate Professionals
You are probably busy with your corporate careers during weekdays but with more time at home due to the pandemic, how about contributing wisdom and lessons from your corporate experience sharing your knowledge on the weekends. There are many younger corporate professionals and graduating students wanting to learn about business and corporate lifestyle who would be open to pay for your coaching / consulting sessions.
Entrepreneurs
Use this platform to connect and more than half of our users are entrepreneurs of growing start ups and small business owners. Share your experience through engaging stories, to connect and share what your business is about. By sharing your vision and challenges, you'll network stronger with right parties and hence establish potential collaboration or acquire your partners, employees and investors via our global network.
Coach, Consultants, Trainers
Most of our experts are currently coaches and trainers, who provide knowledge based webinars to promote their coaching and mentorship programmes. Most clients are hesitant to pay for mentorship with foreign coaches due to two reasons.
- They are worried paying for something and never getting the coaching they paid for. It would be impossible to track the coach or trainer, if they are from two different countries.
- They prefer to get to know the coach and interacting with them before investing in coaching. By running free webinars, they get to connect with you and ask you questions knowing more of your personality, way of coaching and depth of knowledge.
Both instances would add on more confidence for any clients to book coaching calls with you to get long term or short term coaching. At Spendless Academy, the payment for coaching calls are only released and paid to the expert after the coaching call has happened and rated by the client. This makes us a safe transactional platform for users anywhere in the world.
Educators
If you are promoting MBA programmes to executives, then the best place to tap a global network of professionals is with us. Use the opportunity to run 1 hour webinar to share knowledge before introducing the full MBA programs to the audience who wants to learn more.

You can earn income even if you are a corporate employee, by trading your native language capability to teach someone who wants to learn it.

Fitness / Wellness Instructors (Coming soon in 2021)
Since the pandemic happened, a lot of businesses have been investing and addressing issues in the wellness and fitness space for their employees. With isolation, transition to digital, pivoting business strategies - mental health is an important issue to address ensuring their employees stay motivated and not succumb to burn out. This 2021, we will open a new section to focus on Wellness and feature instructors and coaches sharing exercises, tips, knowledge that can contribute to the well being of the users.
