The Truth About Building Your Course Empire That No One's Telling You
What if the advice you've been following about having just one signature course is actually keeping you stuck at six figures? 🚀
I'm answering a listener question that challenges everything the big-name gurus tell you about course creation. Anthony and Melinda from Grow My Salon Business are doing something most experts would say is “wrong” – they have multiple courses for different business problems instead of one massive signature program.
But here's the thing: they might actually be onto something brilliant. After working with hundreds of course creators in our agency, I've seen what really works behind the scenes. And spoiler alert – it's not always what the industry leaders are preaching.
The real question isn't whether you should have one course or many. It's understanding your customer journey and building strategically around what your audience actually needs, not what some guru's playbook says you should do.
“Be careful when people say you have to do one thing. I've been doing this for so long that I have seen the seasons of all these one things come and go.” ✨
🔥 In This Episode:
- Discover why the “one signature course” rule might be limiting your growth potential
- Learn the critical difference between solving problems and selling identities (this changes everything)
- Understand when sequential vs. parallel courses make sense for your business model
- Get the real truth about why most course creators never optimize their first funnel before creating new ones
Grab your favorite coffee and settle in – this episode is going to challenge some sacred cows in the online course world! ☕️
