You’ve been thinking about creating an online course for your business. You believe it will boost your traffic, increase revenue, build brand awareness, and establish you as an expert in your field.
But you don’t know what topic to pick, how to build it, or how to sell it. The following is a summary of the steps you need to take and a list of the best articles on the subject to help you with every aspect of the process.
Here are the steps you need to take
a-Pick your topic. It should be something you want to teach, and others want to learn.
b-Research and validate your idea. Talk to your current followers or search social media to see if there is interest.
c-Define the learning goals and outline the course into lessons and modules.
d-Select a platform for the course or host it on your website. Here, the options are to self-host on a website with an e-learning theme, use an online course marketplace, or a LMS-learning management system.
e-Create the course content. Make it engaging by adding videos, PDFs, and quizzes.
f-Set your pricing, business model, and sales goals. Will it be a one-time purchase or part of a membership site? How much do you need to sell to make it profitable?
g-Launch your course. Make sure it’s visible to your market. You should develop a launch campaign using many of the marketing techniques you will use to market the course further.
h-Create a sales page to promote the course. This should include a compelling headline, an outline of the problem and how your course will solve it, the benefits of the course, FAQs, pricing, bonuses, and testimonials if you have them.
