How AI Revealed a Major Blindspot in My Course Marketing

🚀 Discover how one AI conversation completely transformed my course positioning and could double your sales too!

When I fed my customer data into AI for analysis, I discovered something that completely changed how I view my signature Meta ads course. 

What the AI revealed wasn't just surprising – it challenged my core assumptions about what my audience truly wanted. 

This episode shares the exact process I used to uncover this game-changing insight and how you can use the same method to transform your course marketing. 

What I learned could double your sales too, and it's probably not what you think.

“Nobody goes to bed at night thinking ‘if I could just build my list faster.' What they really want is to get in front of more people online, build their audience, and finally make consistent sales.” ✨

🔥 In This Episode:

  • Discover why “list building” is actually a grudge purchase (and what people really want instead)
  • Learn how to use AI to analyze your customer feedback and uncover hidden patterns
  • Master the 3 awareness stages of your audience and how to speak to each one
  • Get actionable steps to use AI to improve your own course positioning
  • Transform your marketing messaging to connect with what your audience truly desires

Grab your favorite notebook and join me for this game-changing episode that will transform how you think about your course marketing! ☕️
