As someone that works in eLearning for my day job, I disagree with putting out a course with flaws. People will leave bad reviews and ask for refunds. And why would someone pay for it? Don’t make it perfect but make it better than “amateur “. We want repeat buyers.

My understanding is that you are providing the minimum necessary to achieve the result. The goal isn't to have flaws but not be inhibited by the need to provide every bit of info you know about the topic.

Completely agree. This is understated! This is why there is now so much hesitation for new clients. On the contrary, I'm happy to work harder to set myself apart but it's still annoying - the fake chat gpt written courses. So fake and so obvious.

This is such perfect timing- THANK YOU! I've been wanting to switch gears a bit and provide more value/impact to my subscribers, so I've been considering a video course. I listen to every one of your podcasts, and have been a subscriber for years (Video Influencers too!) Sean, I appreciate you and your team- I always find nuggets to apply. Cheers!

Thanks for the great video on why courses fail to sell. You're exactly right - people buy the result, not the course. This is a really important point for course creators to keep in mind. We need to focus on creating courses that deliver specific results, not just teaching people new information.

Tanya... I so appreciate the love! Thank you for watching and for sharing :)

Thank you for the insights! Could you please as course creators STOP forcing ppl to be in a facebook group in order to enjoy the experience of a "community"? Most people moved already away from fb never to look back at it, luckily. It is a big annoyance to many potential customers and it should be only optional in the modern day. There is slack, discord, private websites , forums and so on. Fb is made to make ppl addicted to random irrelevant tiktok-like content that is polarizing and distracting. During a course people want to focus. Attention nowadays is the currency. Do not hand over attention to tech giants

The community platform of choice needs to match the culture of that audience. Could be FB, doesn't have to be, depends on what you're teaching in the course. As an advertising platform, FB does might sense for course creators, though, even if the community functionality belongs on Telegram, Discord or elsewhere.

Yes. I hate facebook so much, always have.

Thanks for this Sean. I love topics like this because it's time to normalize high-ticket transformation over low ticket transactions. Nobody wants more information. Create, Market and Sell your $100K offer or course to ONE person instead of needing 1000 subscribers or followers to sell your $100 or $1k offer. Focus on mastery and going deeper with your skills to serve at the highest level. And get paid well while working less for that ONE thing. Kill the ego train that convinces us we're good at everything. Do one thing well.

100%! Thanks for watching and for sharing... I appreciate it!

I used to be a manager for Envato Tuts+ where I was head of all the design courses we sold as a subscription. We used to pay instructors around $4k a course. Anyway, I know several people that earn around $10K - $100k a month from selling courses on platforms such as Udemy, Skillshare etc. I'm a creative designer with 17 years experience and my goal is to begin selling courses on UI/UX design using Skillshare and Udemy, and then once I have quite a few students I'll be putting out a bigger course on my own platform. So thanks for this information, very helpful!

Thank you for this valuable podcast! Just as a side note though, there is no such thing as a „mega niche“ 🤣 these are just markets, and what you call a „niche“ like everybody and their dog, are all just markets really. A niche is a small fraction of a market segment, that is proven to be underserved, and if you find one such rare nugget, you are not gonna share it with anybody else until you dominate it.

It’s so grotesque to see AI mentioned when talking about creating an “authentic voice” - the ultimate betrayal of authenticity and the embrace of commodification. Using such a tool while claiming personal communication is simply fraudulent.

It’s an instrument. If you think everything has to be “authentic”, stop using instruments like your car, and start walking around on your authentic feet.

Hi, one teacher suggested starting to publicize and therefore begin the launch of the course with only ONE module, and then find out from the audience if it works or not. It can be free at this level of Beta testing. It’s a strong way for ppl to decide to trust the teacher or not. E-courses are not dead, not at all. Ppl are now used to buying them to achieve a goal. The price ranges are vast.

Testing the model is golden.

Well, it‘s actually pretty obvious, like you always wanna test a product before you‘re gonna promote it.

The links divert one to a page where one has to explain why one couldn't sign up for the masterclass in timely fashion. ??? Yet more click bait-like stratagems to gather emails. Don't make offers and then expect one to first perform like a circus seal. That's disingenuous.

The free gift costs money 😮
