Choose the Right Idea

You can’t create a course on something you’re interested in without knowing whether or not it will sell. The right course topic is one that you know people are interested in buying. Do a bit of research beforehand and make sure to ask the right questions. Sometimes courses that people say they’re interested in aren’t actually courses that they will dig into their wallets to purchase. You can’t ask friends and relatives who aren’t your ideal customer if they’ll buy. They will say yes just to be nice.

Outline the Course

Outlining the contents of a course is probably my favorite part. Organize your thoughts into a fully fleshed-out lesson plan. You don’t need to throw in every single detail. I’ve created courses on different personal finance topics over the last five years. What I’ve learned while creating these courses taken by thousands of people is that students like brevity. They want you to concisely lead them through the steps they need to get to the final result.

Test the Market

After getting an idea of what you want the course to be about, try to actually sell it. This could be through a presale or beta version of the course. The purpose of this is to gauge actual interest before you waste time creating something from scratch that nobody wants. Trust me, this isn’t fun. Courses can take weeks and months to build out. You don’t want to spend this amount of time on a project only to realize that nobody wants it.


There are many ways you can deliver a course. The simplest and cheapest way is probably delivering your course through daily emails. Alternatives use more involved sites like Udemy, Teachable, Thinkific, or Zippy Courses.

Instead of using a robust course platform, you could use a straightforward payment and digital delivery service like SendOwl or Gumroad. Compare platforms' prices and capabilities to choose the right one for you.

Promote Like It’s Your Job

This is the part where people sometimes fall off. Marketing needs to happen to make people aware of your course. Create an opt-in, make an email marketing series, experiment with ads, do a webinar, or hop on a podcast. People need to know your product exists in order to buy it.

Final Word

Creating courses is one of many ways you can add some passive income to your business. The research element of choosing your topic and positioning is key. There are many online courses that have been created and fizzled out because there wasn’t an audience of paying customers. Listen to what people want and then execute.

3 smart money moves that make to beat the State Pension How to Separate Home Life from Working-from-Home Life 1. Have a Separate Office Space Yes, sure, the most obvious thing I knew was to have a “dedicated office space” because that is what everyone says. Why this is important for me, is not to lessen home distractions, but to have a physical space in which I can then physically leave at the end of the day. Physically moving my body from “work” to “home – and then not co-using that space for anything else – helps create an energy flow that most people experience when they physically leave their in-office jobs at the end of the day. 2. But Find What Feels Good I initially assumed I had to separate all the things. Turns out, I don’t have to do anything. And in fact, separating work and home entirely does not work for me. At least, not every day. Some days, my energy vibration at work is high and positive and I kick so...
