The Secret Strategy Course Creators Need to Avoid Launching to Crickets
Ready to stop the content creation burnout cycle and start making money while you build your audience? 🚀
Have you ever wondered if you should pour months into creating your course first or focus on building that email list instead? It's the chicken-or-egg dilemma that keeps so many course creators stuck in perpetual preparation mode. The truth is, launching your perfectly-crafted course to an empty room is like Bon Jovi landing in a helicopter to perform at an empty stadium (yes, there's a story about that in this episode!).
I've dried the tears of too many online experts who spent thousands building a course only to launch to crickets. The good news? There's a smarter pathway that helps you build your audience AND start making money right away – no finished course required! In this episode, I break down the exact strategy that my most successful Launch Lounge members use to grow their email lists while generating revenue from day one.
“Your social media is purely there for you to build a relationship with people and then move them off of social media. That is your number one goal.” ✨
🔥 In This Episode:
- Discover why waiting to finish your course before making offers is costing you precious momentum and revenue
- Master the $5 per day engagement ad strategy that grows your audience faster than organic social media ever could
- Create irresistible lead magnets that convert casual followers into eager subscribers who can't wait to buy from you
- Implement the “golden thread” technique that turns free offer takers into paying customers within minutes
- Learn how to make money from your thank you page even before your course is fully created
Grab your favorite coffee and notebook – this episode is packed with actionable steps you can implement today! ☕️
