Build a YouTube Channel With Intention—Not Guesswork.
I spent 30 days researching before uploading my first video. That research became the blueprint that helped me monetize my YouTube channel in less than 60 days. Now I'm teaching that same system inside my first founding cohort.
*Founding Cohort Limited to 45 Creators*
Hi, I'm Melvin, your instructor.
Professional Dancer. Creative Director. Educator. Founder of HĂS Dance University.
For most of my career, I built my life through movement.
I've had the opportunity to perform internationally, choreograph for brands and productions, teach at universities, and help thousands of dancers build confidence through education worldwide.
Every opportunity came from years of developing my craft and showing up consistently.
But eventually, I realized something…
As a creator, I was spending just as much time building content as I was building my dance career—and I knew there had to be a smarter way. Instead of immediately uploading videos and hoping they performed well, I did something most people skip.
I spent 30 days researching.I studied successful channels, analyzed audience behavior, tested ideas, looked for patterns, and built a complete blueprint before I ever published my first video.
That month of preparation changed everything.
Rather than guessing what might work, I launched with intention.
The result?
→I monetized my YouTube channel in less than 60 days.←
Not because I had millions of followers.
Not because I went viral overnight.
But because I had a system.
That's why I created Monetized in 60.
This isn't about shortcuts, hacks, or chasing the algorithm. It's about learning how to think strategically, build intentionally, and create a foundation that supports long-term growth.
If you're ready to stop guessing and start building your creative career with purpose, I'd love to help you do exactly that.

Not at all!
Monetized in 60 is designed for creators at every stage.

-
Absolutely.
In fact, many creators join because they already have a channel but feel stuck. If you're struggling with growth, consistency, positioning, or monetization, we'll use the same research-first framework to help you evaluate your current channel and make intentional improvements moving forward.
-
No.
While I'm the founder of HĂS Dance University and come from a professional dance background, Monetized in 60 is designed for creators across many industries. Whether you're an educator, artist, entrepreneur, coach, musician, fitness professional, or simply passionate about sharing your knowledge, the principles you'll learn apply to building a successful YouTube channel in virtually any niche.

-
Most creator programs focus on uploading more content or chasing the latest algorithm changes. Monetized in 60 starts somewhere different: research.
Before I uploaded my first YouTube video, I spent 30 days studying successful channels, audience behavior, and content strategy. That preparation became the blueprint that helped me monetize my channel in less than 30 days. This cohort is built around teaching you how to create with intention, so every video you publish has a purpose behind it—not just a hope that it goes viral.
