ONLINE COURSES CHANGED MY LIFE...AND THEY CAN CHANGE YOURS, TOO! Inside these covers, you'll learn what the online course business opportunity really looks like in 2020 and beyond--and exactly what coaches, consultants, authors, speakers, and experts need to do to seize it. You'll learn... how I went from hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt to a multimillion-dollar business in just a few years, thanks to online courses. (Introduction) who is really buying online courses today and how to cater to their ­interests. (Part 1) what goes into a world-class course that protects your ­credibility as an expert. (Part 5) a simple but super ­effective ­methodology for quickly ­validating that your course idea has legs. (Part 3) how to attract paying students quickly--before you've even built out the whole course. (Part 4) the four different ways that online courses can fit into your business model. (Part 2) what the landscape for online courses looks like today, and how it has evolved over time. (Part 1) Not understanding that last part is probably the biggest reason why so many course entrepreneurs fail, and it's not their fault--so much of what you hear out there is hype based on a playbook that's five years out of date! I'm not going to waste your time with rah-rah energy or pie-in-the-sky ­success stories. If you're familiar with my work at Mirasee or my past books like Teach and Grow Rich or Leveraged Learning, you already know what you can look forward to in these pages: the straight goods on how things really work today, and what it takes to be successful with online courses.
