Hi all, this is my first post on the forum.

I am passionate about investing in the stock market and decided to start a business around this. A couple months ago I started a youtube channel making videos about investing (how to find undervalued companies, how to value stocks etc.). I have had moderate success and now have a following of 4,000 (and growing) highly engaged subscribers. I have now begun to think about how to monetize my following. So far all I have been doing is promoting an affiliate link that allows you to sign up for a broker and get 2 free stocks, but I know there is more potential with the traffic I am getting. I am stuck trying to think of ways to monetize this audience. Should I:

Create a free ebook to collect emails for future use?
Make a course?
find better affiliate programs to promote?

Or should I not even be thinking about this yet and just focus on growing my audience as large as possible first? I'm not sure if it will be a turn off to my audience if I start promoting a course when I am a relatively new channel. Any feedback is appreciated
