Now, you might have some hesitations about making an online course…and I’ll be honest, I think everyone does. Here are some of the common concerns that I’ve heard:

1. “I don’t know enough to teach a course” or “I’m not an expert”

This is something I had a problem with when I was making my first course. I thought I had to be the best at what I was teaching…that I had to be an expert. But here’s the thing...you don’t need to be an expert or the best in the world at what you do in order to teach someone something.

Think about where you are in your journey, and then think about someone that’s at the very beginning of theirs. If they’re just starting out, there’s so much they need to learn. Even if you have just a couple years, or a year, or even a few months headstart on them…that means you have a ton of learning and experience that you can share with them.

If your students could skip some of the mistakes that you’ve made…or if they could take a few months of your experience and learn it in a couple of days…or if they could take years of experience and learn it in a week…how much is that worth?

That is worth so much TO THEM. For someone that’s just starting out, they would LOVE to be where you are in your journey.

And honestly, sometimes it’s better to be a little closer to the level of the students that you’re trying to teach. I’ve taken courses before where the teacher was WAY beyond the level I was at. And because of that they were out of touch with what I really needed as a student. Whereas if you’ve recently gone through the process and the experiences that your student is going through, you’ll have a much better idea on how to help them.

2. “There are other people already teaching this topic”

This used to happen to me. I’d come up with a great idea for something. I’d be super excited about it. But then I’d do a search on Google…and there’d be something just like my idea already out there. And I’d get all deflated…and I wouldn’t follow through on that idea.

But here’s the thing I’ve learned over time. If there are other people doing the same thing already, that means people want that thing—there’s a market for it…there’s demand for it. So if someone is already teaching about your topic, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. In fact it could be a good thing, because it means that there are people interested in that topic. It means there are people that are willing to pay money to learn about that topic.

And even if you’re teaching the same general topic as someone else, it will never be the same as theirs…because you are different, and the experiences you’ve had are different. You have your own individual perspective on the topic and your own advice to share. And so as a result, your course will be unique and different from anyone else’s course.

3. “I don’t know how to make everything work” (the content, the technology, the marketing, etc.)

That’s why I made this course. I’ll show you step-by-step how to create and launch your course. I’ll walk you through everything you need to know. That’s the value that I’m offering YOU in this course.

If you wanted to you could do all this on your own. You could research and learn how to create a course on your own...and if you stuck with it you could probably do it all by yourself in a few months. But I’m saving you the time, effort, and frustration of having to do it yourself. I'm taking you step-by-step through the whole process that took me more than a few months to do on my own the first time.

And with my help and experience guiding you through the process, we can get you a finished course in just weeks.

I’ll walk you through all the steps needed in order to post your lessons, set up your course platform, and everything else you need to get your course up and running. The process will end up being simple and easy with my help. And if you run into any problems I’m always available through email, messaging and office hours to help.

4. “Making an online course will take too long"

It's true that making an online course can take a long time if you haven't done it before or if you don't have someone to help you along the way. It took me months to create my first online course...and it really was a struggle because I didn't have anyone helping me.

But the whole point of this course is to lead you step-by-step through the process so that you don't have to do it on your own. You don't have to learn the hard way. And yes, with my help it's possible to do it in just weeks, not months. I've tested it, and I've created an online course myself in just a few weeks in order to be confident to say that.

But really it's up to you how fast you get your course done. If you're serious, and you work hard, and you follow my instructions...then yes, you can do it in weeks, not months. And I've created a course calendar, checklist, and workbook that lead you through each step to help you stay on track if you want to do the same.
