I manage a small open source project (https://github.com/frappe/erpnext https://github.com/frappe/erpnext) that churns 100+k per year and helps me manage a small team. It took me 4-5 years to reach here. We make money by providing hosting and also help to other developers working on our platform. I would start with a services plan and a beautiful website. If you are not a designer, do hire one. Good design and quality can go a very long way towards achieving your dream. If your project is an app, you can also go the SAAS (softare-as-a-service) way. But beware, building a multi-tenant platform, and working on user onboarding, marketing your site can be 2x to 3x of your original project your project. The good thing is that once you are there, 1/2 years is a reasonable time, this will only grow.
