Shownotes
The whole “infopreneur” industry has been blowing up, and once COVID hit a lot of business owners were turning into course creators in order to keep their revenue stream flowing.
A lot of things I’ve been reading in the last few months make it sound like a course is actually a must have and without it your business is doomed to fail.
What a load of bullshit.
No two businesses are identical, and no two business owners are identical, so if you are considering creating a course I’m going to give you some reasons it might actually be a really bad idea, and what you might want to try instead.
- You’ve never taught before, you’ve never lead a workshop or webinar
- You don’t have any proven teaching materials or content
- You honestly have zero extra time
- You are scared of technology
