Transform Your Course Business from Exhausting Live Launches to Profitable Automation

Ready to stop the endless cycle of launching and finally build a scalable, profitable online course business that runs while you sleep? 🚀

If you've been stuck in the pattern of exhausting live launches or feeling like your business is completely dependent on your energy, this episode is your pathway to freedom. I'm sitting down with Jack Born, founder of Deadline Funnel, to unpack how smart course creators are using authentic deadlines to scale their businesses while maintaining integrity. We dive deep into how automation doesn't mean sacrificing authenticity – in fact, it can help you serve more students with less burnout.

Most course creators struggle with the feast-and-famine cycle that comes with live-only launches, but Jack reveals how a hybrid approach might be exactly what your business needs to grow consistently while preserving your energy.

“If you're able to reach a bigger audience, then you're impacting those lives as well… even though our software is directly impacting you, it's also having an impact on the people that you're reaching.” ✨

🔥 In This Episode:

  • Discover the powerful difference between inauthentic “scarcity tactics” and genuine deadlines that help students make transformative decisions
  • Learn how to create a hybrid model balancing automated systems with personal connection that protects your energy
  • Uncover the surprisingly simple strategy that increased one course creator's sales by 39% without additional work
  • Explore how even “heart-centered” entrepreneurs like Amy Porterfield use deadlines effectively without feeling manipulative
  • Understand why proper tracking is essential for evergreen funnels (and how iOS changes impact your business)

Grab your favorite chai latte and notebook – this conversation might just transform how you structure your entire business! ☕️
