Market Opportunity
Spreadsheet skills are universally needed and universally lacking. Courses teaching Excel/Sheets — from formulas to dashboards to automation — have massive corporate and individual demand. Screen-share format is perfect; no face needed.
The Idea
Create spreadsheet mastery courses. Levels: beginner (formulas, formatting), intermediate (pivot tables, VLOOKUP, charts), advanced (macros, Power Query, Apps Script). Use case-based teaching: 'Build a budget dashboard,' 'Analyze sales data,' 'Automate your reports.' Price $29–99 per course, $149–299 bundle.
Key to Success
- Teach SOLUTIONS, not features — 'how to build an automated expense report' sells better than 'how to use VLOOKUP'
- Corporate licensing — companies buy Excel training for entire departments at $2k–10k
- Include downloadable practice files with every course — hands-on practice is how spreadsheet skills stick
