I closed my first fractional client during the program. Since then, I've closed two more, and now have the financial runway to explore my next chapter with clarity. After a decade of sprinting through product roles, venture capital, and building my own startup, I needed time to reassess what came next. The Portfolio Path cohort helped me balance leveraging my founder brand with quietly executing and building in the background. This program isn’t just about side hustles; it’s about designing a sustainable career on your terms.

I managed to secure a few clients during the 8 week course, which I'm delighted about. I've been wanting to start a side-hustle for some time but never got around to making it happen. This course was exactly what I needed. It gave me the structure I needed to define and refine my offer, validate it, look for clients, and more. On top of that, the weekly sessions and accountability buddy system helped keep the momentum going - always great vibes with a group of like-minded people whom I hope to stay in touch :) After taking the course, I have way more clarity on what my side-hustle is and how to go about building and scaling it. Thanks so much for your support!

Before the course, I had something inside of me tugging at me to become an entrepreneur, but I didn't think I could provide value in any of the areas that interested me. Within the first week of the course, I had an “aha!” moment when I identified my ideal client profile and realized that they had a number of pain points that I could resolve with my expertise. From there, my goal was to build a roadmap of actions I could slowly take, while balancing full-time work and family demands. After graduating this course, I feel that I have a long-term roadmap that I can execute to land my first clients and grow this business at my own pace.

Dexter's course is a mini-bible for anyone who is looking to launch their portfolio careers. Before joining the course, I had so many questions on how I could start a side hustle, how to find my first client, and many more. His course is a step-by-step approach that you can easily follow. The exercises make you put on your thinking hat and take action. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to launch a side hustle. Life is short. Make the best use of it.

I was able to upsell a service based on the strategies we learnt in the course! When I started, I wasn't sure which project to work on and how to get started. Dexter really goes out of his way to help us work out what we can do better and untangle the knots we're facing.
I loved the bite-sized "theory" videos and detailed workbooks that helped me to process my ideas into actionable items. The workbooks highlighted blind spots or challenges, which we discussed during the office hours. Loved working alongside others who were also in a similar journey.

Dexter's course was the answer to my prayers. As a full-time professional, I was always curious about building a side hustle. Recently, my career took a turn that led me to taking on side consulting projects, but I had no idea how to scale and expand it. The course helped me to get an understanding of how to start and scale a side hustle business end-to-end, giving you real examples on how to do it and sparing no time for vague explanations. I really appreciated the course structure, as it starts with your mindset, then drills down into the nitty gritty details of executing your side hustle. I'm thankful for the course as now I'm more confident building my private consulting business as a side hustle.

I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to start their own side hustle but feels intimidated or unsure of where to begin. As someone who was initially scared to approach the idea of starting a side hustle, this course simplified the entire process and broke it down into approachable steps. I now feel more confident and empowered to pursue my entrepreneurial goals. Dexter's passion for the subject matter was contagious, and his enthusiasm motivated me to take action.
The course materials, including video lectures, worksheets, and real-life examples, were incredibly helpful in reinforcing the concepts taught. Overall, this course has not only provided me with the necessary tools and knowledge but also inspired me to embrace the world of entrepreneurship.

This course has helped me sharpened my focus, find my niche and formulate a strategy to launch it. As a Product Manager and Consultant who has lived in 4 countries, one of my goals was to launch a remote side-hustle that I could do as a digital nomad. I appreciate the personal touch that Dexter has put into this course, and his examples and insights are very relatable. Don't miss out on the vibrant community as well, as you will be learning a lot from your peers too!

I enjoyed being part of the Part-Time Consulting Launchpad community. I always wanted to launch a side hustle, have a mentor, and commit to doing the work. Dexter's course was a great way to start making it happen. I like how the course started with the customer in mind: finding your *potential niche, matching your skills, and plotting it in a demand matrix. The Notion course worksheet prompts were very valuable. I especially enjoyed the last part (which focuses on Sales 101): creating a pitch, and website, qualifying leads, and writing sample scripts for the discovery call.

I really recommend this course to anyone that feels a bit stuck and and wants to start a side hustle in a new niche. I decided to take this course because I was interested in exploring a different path for career growth. It's very well structured and a perfect amount of live sessions, homework, video lessons, collaboration with other students, and feedback from him and his team. It helped me generate ideas, think outside of the box, and get the results I wanted.

I can’t recommend this course enough because of its value and the connections that you form with other students. I have been following Dexter since his Singapore days and always wanted to learn from his experiences abroad. I got to know him better in the past month, learning his toolkit to run a side hustle.

Principal Consultant - Thrive
I embarked on my solopreneurship journey about 1.5 years ago following a layoff. Despite already taking the leap into entrepreneurship, I found the Remote Side Hustle course to be incredibly beneficial. The course provided invaluable frameworks and structures that I hadn't previously utilized. The content was refreshingly straightforward and concise, supplemented with practical examples. The exercise templates were particularly helpful as they allowed me to directly apply the theory learned to my own side hustles.
I also truly appreciated the sense of community among cohort peers. As a solopreneur, connecting with like-minded individuals has been invaluable in maintaining motivation and momentum. Before enrolling in the course, I often felt overwhelmed about whether I was making the right decisions. However, thanks to Dex and the Remote Side Hustle course, my mindset has been refreshed. I now approach my ventures with greater confidence.

I highly recommend this side hustle course for those seeking actionable strategies. Dexter’s no-fluff approach and concise yet insightful content provided me with a structured framework for refining my side hustle. The format of short videos and accompanying worksheets made the course easy to follow and encouraged deeper thinking. Dexter's guidance helped me gain valuable insights and take meaningful steps towards advancing my side hustle endeavors.

This side hustle course was really great. I really loved how Dexter packed a lot of essential information into 8-10 minute videos which made it easy to follow along. Dexter also shared a lot of great tips, examples, and worksheets. Lastly, what was awesome about this course was I got to join a community of other aspiring side hustlers and learn from them.

As an Insurance Broker, I took this course because I wanted to "create something" outside of work even if I didn’t believing in myself and my capacities at first. Dexter's course boosted my self-confidence and provided me the tools and mental frameworks to go out there and conquer the world. The community is also an important value add where I can discuss the course content and find people at different points on their side hustle journey.

I'm already working on one side hustle in selling Japanese bath products with my partner and applying some of the lessons to our business. Whether you're at the start of your side hustle journey or looking to expand your existing side hustle, I highly recommend this course as a great foundation to help break through the fear barrier and just have a go. As a result of taking this course, I've gained more knowledge and confidence to navigate the challenges of starting and running a side hustle business. Thanks Dexter for creating this valuable course.

Dexter is an amazing coach and everything that he taught is comprehensive. The course was eye opening. It helped me to see my potential and strength so that I can choose the right side hustle to start. I joined the Remote Side Hustle course to learn more about building a side hustle which eventually could becoming a business. My initial idea was to work on consulting for software engineering or remote work related topics. In this course, I learned a lot about bootstrapping a side hustle. My side hustle is still in the early days but with the course resources, I believe that I can continue my own journey to build my side hustle (with the help of the community too).

I'm an ex-Big Tech employee who wanted to explore a Fractional COO role and I secured my first client during the cohort. It was comprehensive, providing me a step-by-step structure on how to frame my offer, including looking for my target clients and executing on it. The weekly office hours also helped me with asking questions about real life experiences.

I'm working on creating a coaching program based on my social content (Wealth Building). Before the blueprint, I waited 6 months before publishing a guide and sales stalled after 2-3 months. The blueprint gave me the framework to test and helped me create a test first habit. I've shifted my mindset from 100% ready before testing to action first, adjust as you go! .

Thank you again for the session! I found it very clarifying. It really helped me get a stronger sense of scale and focus for the next steps, especially as I begin shaping the path forward alongside the new role. Appreciate your partnership in this. It has made a difference.

Edtech Growth Consultant
I landed a consulting project with my former employer right when I needed it. More than that, I regained confidence. I wrote a LinkedIn post that reconnected me to people I hadn't spoken to in years—some of whom later became collaborators or leads (a coaching client!). I also finally launched my first website after procrastinating on it for three years.
Before joining the Launchpad, I was stuck in a kind of limbo. I had left my full-time role about seven months earlier and had ideas brewing, but no clear structure to move them forward.
Launchpad gave me a strong, structured path to follow—something I really needed at that moment. I felt consistently supported by Dexter and Lily. I wasn't just thinking, I was building, experimenting, reaching out. And that made all the difference.
If you're stuck, overthinking, or unsure how to move from ideas to income, this program gives you the clarity, structure, and support you need. And by the end, you'll realize you were always capable. You just needed the right launchpad.

Fractional CTO
I landed my second client as a fractional CTO on a 50-hour-a-month retainer. The Launchpad guided me through thinking about my offering thanks to its Notion workbooks, which motivated me to reach out to more people—leading me to my client.
I had been working full-time with a single consulting client on the side. I wanted to scale my consulting but was not excited by the idea of looking for clients or thinking about what I can offer.
This Launchpad is great if you've been thinking about consulting or part-time work for a while but didn't know how to start. The timeline, workbooks, and check-ins will keep you engaged and motivate you to implement your consulting goals.

I'm currently working on starting my own company. Dexter's newsletter content has helped me a lot with tool suggestions and practical advice from some interesting individuals with different paths to success. Portfolio Path helped me discover new AI and other tools to speed up my workflow. Subscribing to the Portfolio Path newsletter is a no-brainer.
