Real Life Trading
About the Company
Real Life Trading was founded by Jerremy Alexander Newsome in 2014 with the goal of making stock market education more engaging and accessible. The company's mission is to enrich lives through mentorship, providing a positive and supportive environment for learning about stock trading. Real Life Trading offers a combination of free content and premium services, including live day trading sessions and coaching. Over the years, it has expanded internationally with branches in Australia, Denmark, and the UK, and has raised over $4 million in revenue while donating a portion to charitable causes through the Real Life Foundation.
Idea Behind Company
Jerremy Newsome's journey into trading and education started during his college years at the University of Florida, where he studied Finance. However, he found the formal education lacking in practical insights into the stock market. Frustrated with traditional financial education, Jerremy decided to pursue self-learning by attending seminars, reading books, and consuming every resource available. His passion for teaching and helping others led him to create Real Life Trading, focusing on delivering high-energy, real-life lessons to anyone interested in learning about the stock market. His teaching style contrasts with the conventional, often dry, approach found in traditional financial education.
Creating the Company
Jerremy began by offering free educational content on platforms like YouTube, which allowed him to build an audience and gain credibility. His first product was a class on covered calls, which he created after receiving numerous requests from friends. Despite the challenges of being a newcomer to the industry, including a lawsuit from a competitor, Jerremy built a loyal following by consistently providing valuable, free content. The business grew through word of mouth and interactions with clients on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Jerremy was determined to provide value to his audience, believing that the more value you offer, the greater the monetary rewards will be.
Launching the Business
The launch of Real Life Trading was not without obstacles. One significant challenge was a lawsuit from a competing company that accused Jerremy of stealing their content. Despite this, Jerremy relied on his growing social media presence and a solid network of clients who appreciated his insights and personal approach. His mission to help 1,000,000 people was a driving force behind his efforts. As he continued to produce free content and engage with his community, his audience grew, and so did his reputation. The business’s success was rooted in providing immense value to his followers, and over time, this led to both customer acquisition and retention.
Earnings
Real Life Trading now generates around $160,000 per month in revenue. The company has experienced significant growth due to its unique business model, which blends free educational content with paid premium services, such as live day trading sessions and one-on-one coaching. The business continues to expand globally, with branches in various countries, and has created a strong community of traders who appreciate the positive and interactive teaching approach. Jerremy has also integrated charitable efforts into the company through the Real Life Foundation, which donates a portion of the revenue to worthy causes. Despite challenges along the way, Real Life Trading’s focus on customer satisfaction and creating a genuine connection with clients has driven its success.
Real Life Trading plans to continue expanding its reach by collaborating with influencers, athletes, and celebrities, while focusing on enriching lives globally. Jerremy’s vision includes helping wealthy individuals empower their communities and helping others achieve financial freedom. A key long-term goal for the company is to impact the U.S. education system by promoting financial literacy and money management. Jerremy is also working on writing a book, Money Grows on Trees, to further educate and inspire people to think differently about money and wealth-building. With its focus on continuous content creation, customer service, and strategic growth, the future looks bright for Real Life Trading.
