Good question.
If you already make a few hundred bucks from making videos, I think you are on a good track.
Do you make money through Patreon or from advertisment?
Some things to think about:
* Can you generate leads from your YouTube channel, at least for consulting?
* Talk to your viewers. Understand their problems and figure out what a lot of them see as as problem. This could go hand in hand with consulting.
* Build something to address this problem and make it a product. You already have people likely willing to at least try and give feedback.

What I see quite often is, that "creators" try to get people to sign up for their newsletters and that kind of stuff. I think there are a lot of ways to make money from content, but building something is probably the hardest... But as a tech person, it feels much more satisfying.
