Write your way to freedom
in the future of learning

We are in the midst of a digital renaissance. 

The average internet user is starving for knowledge as they mindlessly consume memes and entertainment that the algorithms serve them. This has created a unprecedented demand for a new career path. 

The world is in desperate need of synthesizers; those who can focus their minds to filter out the noise by learning and sharing valuable knowledge to those seeking it. 

Zettel Monetizer will teach you how to unlock this unique path that favors the curious divergent thinker.

Welcome to the future of learning. The creator economy is projected to reach half a trillion dollars in revenue by 2027—and it’s still early.

Imagine getting a tiny slice of that pie just by following your curiosity.

That is all possible in the digital renaissance and I’m here to show you how.

Get Started

A note from your instructor (Tony Ramella)

I’ll be real with you. I’m not here to make some clickbait guarantee you’ll make $10,000 per month after taking a 6 week course. I won’t rebrand any existing systems or programs with my own language to act like I invented them.

What I will do is teach you the simple, time tested note-making skills that enabled me to:

    • Gain over 60,000 social media followers in 2 years
    • Build a 5-figure newsletter business in 1 year
    • Generate 72M+ impressions in the past year
    • Go from 0 to 2.5k YouTube subscribers in 5 months
    • Reclaim my focus to become a mindful creator instead of a mindless consumer
    • Help thousands of divergent thinkers organize their digital life and write valuable notes

If you don’t think any of this is possible by creating meaningful content from valuable notes, this is not the program for you. What I am here to do is provide you the skills, systems and support to monetize the ideas that enter your mind every day. 

Zettel Monetizer is
the course for you if:

  • You want to start an online business but distractions and overwhelm prevent you from launching a product
  • You are a creative with ADHD looking to monetize your novel interests

What Zettel Monetizers Are Saying

There is definitely immense value in this course, irrespective of the tools that you use. The structure of the digital can be easily replicated in most platforms that are used. Watching the set-up in Obsidian is absolutely perfect and easy to replicate. It is a perfect blend! I have watched the videos over and over.

I am finding such value in helping me explore my ideas and get clarity - even in my current business. I feel, finally, that I am on a way to creating and shaping ideas that I have built up over the last 30 years of my career and have a method to actually become a craftsman of my passions.
JuanitaBusiness Coach
I had an on-off relationship with Obsidian for 1-2 years, always trying to convince myself that it was the right tool for knowledge work after all (because everyone seems to use it). And yet I got more and more frustrated, simply because it didn't really click for me.

Zettel Monetizer helped me gain my very own stack of tools, but it works for me and I think that's the most important thing in the end!"
CarmenCEO
There is great value in learning the connections made between Zettelkasten (analog), Obsidian (digital), and I plan to publish on Substack for the purpose of establishing, and building a potential career as a synthesizer.

Tony has designed a top-tier course that demonstrates how you can fuse your innate curiosity with the Zettelkasten method to create a sustainable newsletter business. He demystifies the Zettlekasten method by removing needless complications, finally making it possible for you to create your own digital or analogue "thinking partner" - just like Niklas Luhmann
Carl FlintoffCreator
When I discovered Tony while browsing videos about Zettelkasten on YouTube, I immediately understood that he had something special other influencers, entrepreneurs or whatever they are, often lack: a great sense of humility and dedication to his audience. Unlike many, he doesn’t sound fake.

Though I am not into this “yet another course you would like to buy” trend, when I heard that he was launching his, I immediately bought it. I knew I could benefit from it, and I more than did.
