Mike Clayton and I will be discussing online courses and offerings. Mike and I are polar opposites when it comes to audience and offerings, and I think our views on this are super helpful to those considering jumping into offering something to their audience. We will be discussing the following:
- The discipline to create a course
- Reasonable expectation for maintenance and serving students
- What does it take (time, $$$, expertise) to do the whole thing?
- Platforms (and why the grass is always greener next door)
- Affiliates and other ways to market
- What makes a good course?
- Is this a viable proposition?
- Beware of these things.
- What kind of commitment is this?
- What’s the outline process?
- Q&A in the chat
