Eldoret primary school teacher reveals how he makes more than Kes 500,000 every month selling video content online, Start hardware business for the wife. One word for him?
Eliud Ruto, a primary school teacher from Eldoret, never imagined that his simple passion for teaching could one day transform his financial future. For years, Eliud dedicated his days to helping young pupils understand mathematics, science, and English in the classroom. But like many teachers, his salary was barely enough to comfortably support his family. One evening, while searching online for ways to make extra income, he stumbled upon a platform called NairoTube where creators could upload and sell their videos directly to viewers. Curious about the opportunity, Eliud decided to record a few short educational lessons and upload them to the platform.
To his surprise, the response was far greater than he expected. Eliud began sharing links to his educational videos on WhatsApp groups and Facebook pages, especially those filled with parents and students looking for extra learning resources. Within weeks, people started purchasing his lessons, praising the way he explained topics in a simple and engaging manner. What started as a small experiment quickly grew into a steady stream of sales. Before long, Eliud realised he was earning more from his online lessons than he had ever imagined possible.
As his videos gained popularity, Eliud also discovered another powerful feature of NairoTube — its referral program. The platform rewards creators with Kes 700 for every new creator they successfully refer. Even better, creators continue earning a percentage from the sales made by the people they introduce to the platform for a lifetime. For Eliud, this opened up a whole new income stream. By simply encouraging fellow teachers and friends to join, he sometimes referred up to ten creators in a single day, earning an instant Kes 7,000 in referral commissions alone.
Today, Eliud Ruto says his life has completely changed. Through a combination of video sales and referral earnings, the Eldoret teacher now makes more than Kes 500,000 every month from NairoTube. What started as a simple search for extra income has turned into a life-changing opportunity. Grateful for the platform that helped him unlock his potential, Eliud now encourages other Kenyans with smartphones and internet access to take advantage of NairoTube, insisting that anyone with knowledge to share can turn it into a powerful source of income.
