About

Built by someone who did the work.

The 10k Club exists because I got tired of watching smart people trade action for another course.

Usama, founder of The 10k Club

Hi — I'm Usama. I've spent 7+ years building agencies and products from Pakistan. I've hired, been fired, shipped things that flopped, shipped things that paid rent for years, and everything in between.

Why I started this

The internet is drowning in advice. Threads, courses, gurus, saved posts you'll never open again. And yet the number of people who actually ship — put a real thing in front of a real customer — hasn't moved. If anything, it's shrunk.

The problem isn't a lack of information. It's a lack of a structure that forces action. So I built one.

How I built the club

Every article in the club is something I actually did. Not something I read about, not something that sounds good on a slide. If I'm writing about first offers, it's because I've written a hundred. If I'm writing about cold outreach, it's because I've sent thousands of DMs and got told to go away by most of them.

The rule is simple: if I haven't shipped it, I don't write it.

Who it's for

The 10k Club is for people who want to make their first ten thousand dollars from a skill they already have — not the one they're planning to learn next.

Freelancers. Solo operators. People with a full-time job and a real idea. People who are one shipped result away from believing they can do this.

Who it's not for

If you want a curriculum, hire a coach. If you want theory, buy a book. If you want a community where lurking is fine, this isn't it. Members ship. That's the deal.

What it costs

Nothing. No paywall, no upsell, no "premium tier" behind the free one. The economics work because I run other things — this is the piece I wish had existed when I was starting.
