If you have mastered the points and miles game, charge others $100-$250 for a personalized credit card strategy session. Review their spending patterns, recommend a 12-month card application roadmap, and teach them how to book first-class flights for pennies. Offer a done-with-you service where you actually book their award travel for a fee of $150 per ticket. Many people know points exist but find it overwhelming — you translate complexity into a simple plan and charge for the expertise.
🚀 First Step
Create a simple Notion page outlining your points consulting service, set up Calendly for bookings, and post about it in travel Facebook groups.
  • Offer a free 15-minute audit to prove value, then sell a $150 60-minute strategy session with a personalized 12-month card plan
  • Specialize in one airline alliance or hotel program — being the go-to expert for United MileagePlus is more marketable than being a generalist
  • Create a Notion template of your points system and sell it for $29 as a lower-priced entry product that leads to consulting bookings
