8 Simple Ideas to Unlock The Course Inside You
(VISUAL🧵)
Everyone has an online course in them.
Decode what you're doing.
Learn how to teach it to others.
You don't have to be an expert.
You can "learn in public".
If you can help your friend do something, you've got credibility to them.
You don't have to be an expert in their eyes.
You helped them.
That's enough.
Start teaching way earlier than you think you're ready.
The BEST way to start an online course is to talk to people about it.
Engage in Generous Dialogue.
Ask questions to invite honesty, dignity, and revelation.
Listen with genuine curiosity and ready to be surprised.
Your course will reveal itself to you.
Course-Student Fit is a combination of:
• a clear Vehicle for Transformation (screwdriver)
• a Problem Worth Solving (nails)
What most creators don't realize is that the first one is fixed.
The second is where you should be experimenting.
Find your nail.
When you're ready to launch a Transformational Online Course, make sure it has 3 things for your students:
1. Personal reflection
2. Peer-to-peer learning opportunities
3. A path for them to continue learning long after the course is complete
We learn best from each other.
You set the Destination for your students.
But they're all at different stages of the Journey.
Help them find and connect with others at the same point as they are.
Your journey from beginner to emerging expert is long.
It more or less follows this windy path.
Your mileage may vary.
But be ready to jump on board when your flight takes off.
Finally, when you're in demand, you need to know how to set your price.
The art of teaching meets the business of online.
The Pyramid is a way to think about your value and what you can charge.
That's it my friends!
It's really that easy and that hard.
