I just finished creating a 30-lesson course addressing a problem that a lot of people have, and there are no courses like this out there AT ALL. How do I prevent people from stealing what I have worked so hard to create? How do I get the word out with no social media following? Those are my two big concerns.

[@lewdennen8807]

Great and helpful video! Question. At the end, you discussed hype. I get the go on podcast tour...makes total sense. What If I don't have an audience ot launch the course to? No email list, no one really knows me...yet. THen what? FB ads? But, if I do podcasts, will ads help in that case?

While starting affiliate marketing on amazon associates and if I am gonna use pinterest , what should I choose for 'which type of website' ? For an example , blog or content website etc

[@saltychebs]

Another piece of advice for finding your potential market: chances are, there are other people doing something similar to what you'd like to do or providing similar products. Observe them and observe the kind of audience and customers they tend to attract. What do those customers have in common, and where can they usually be found? Even if the service or product isn't exactly the same, there's a good chance you'll find enough similarities to at least think of a starting point for your business. Good luck everyone!

Great post! a couple of questions: 1-Thinkfic is just to sell the courses, it doesn't create a website, etc, lets say like : kajabi correct? if so, one has to create videos then use thinkfic to upload...? 2- What is "community" within Thinkfic? & 3- the free version allows me to sell one course and profit from it regardless of how many I sell ? Thanks!

I don’t see any links for platforms on what platforms

I've been a long-time viewer of your videos, and they truly inspire me! Despite a successful 2022 financially, I've hit a rough patch in 2023, almost losing all my social media marketing clients as a freelancer. Things have been challenging, but I believe that rejection is redirection. Now, I'm contemplating my options, should I start an affiliate marketing blog, or should I leverage my social media marketing experience to create an online course? Or do both? I'm trying to figure out the best path forward. Do you have a specific video to help?

[@DigitalWithJack]

If you can create videos then start a youtube channel, videos convert better than blogs nowadays, you can simply share your knowledge in your videos and recommend tools and software that you use (affiliate marketing). you can also create online courses and promote them on your channel.

[@fj16564]

@@DigitalWithJack can you tell me more about

[@DigitalWithJack]

@@fj16564 I used to sell my services on instagram until my business slowed down due to not get enough clients, that's when I bought a $30 microphone from Amazon and learnt how to make videos on my laptop, just screen recordings without showing my face, it took me a few day of practice and I was ready to start making videos, I started making courses and uploading them on skillshare and udemy, I won't say exactly how much I'm making but it's more than I did as a freelancer, udemy and skillshare are great but as a content creator you need multiple streams of income that's why I started a new KZbin channel which I've grown to 700 subs in a few months and I've made some affiliate sales as well... So I'm saying all this to let you know that the best skill is to learn how to make videos because it's the best way to help people and provide value, as you may know, money is a measure of value so the more value you provide the more money you can make. My advice would be "buy a usb microphone and maybe a webcam if you can on amazon and learn video creation, it may work for you or maybe not but you can't know until you try it"

[@BonikaShears]

My course would lead people to buy my expensive training and equipment. Should I charge a high amount if my profit will be coming at the next step? I’m doing a class on how to start and operate a beauty shear sharpening business.

His favorite strategy always seems to be, take someone else’s content, make some changes, sell it. Borderline unethical even if you’re just taking the table of contents. If you are the subject matter expert then you shouldn’t need someone else’s material to even start or maybe don’t teach the course until you are the person that others want to rip off.
