How to create and sell your own online course on a

course-selling platform
Introduction
If you're wondering how to create and sell your own online course, you're in good company.
Many people are trying their hand at creating courses as an additional revenue stream or
even as an alternative to their current job. These days, it's easier than ever before to get
started with this endeavor. In this article, I'll walk you through the process of creating your
course from start to finish—from deciding what to teach all the way through setting a price
and marketing your course effectively.

Decide what to teach.

The first step in creating an online course is deciding what to teach. This is where you'll want
to think about the following questions:

What do I know?
What does the market want to learn?
What can I teach others?

The answer to these questions will help set your course direction and make it more likely that
people will buy it.

Choose a course-selling platform.

When it comes to the course-selling platform you use, you want to make sure that it's easy to
use and has a good reputation. You also want to make sure it's affordable, has a good support
system, and has a good design. If you're looking for an online course platform with these
qualities, check out Wise!

Research existing courses on the same topic

Research existing courses on the same topic. As you begin to think about what kind of course
you want to create, it's often a good idea to look at what is already being offered and see
how they are constructed. If there are certain features you really like in an existing course,
consider duplicating them in your own.

You can also use this information as inspiration for how to structure or present your own
content. Look at the reviews that other courses have received and see if there is anything
that you can improve on.

Plan your course

A course is a big project. Before you get started, it's important to do some planning. You'll
want to:
 Create a detailed outline of what you plan on teaching and how you plan on teaching it.
This will help you stay on track as your course progresses and keep the lessons organized
for your students.
Make sure that all the materials needed for each lesson are ready before moving forward
with building the course itself (i.e., if there are any videos or images that need created).
Find out what your audience wants to learn, so that these needs can be met within the
content of your online course.

There are many ways in which people learn best; some prefer hands-on experience while
others prefer watching videos or reading books/articles/blogs about a particular topic first
before trying anything themselves (or both!). Some may have pre-existing knowledge about
certain topics but would like learning more details related specifically with those subjects
while others might not know much at all when they start taking an online class but want
guidance every step along way towards becoming experts themselves--so make sure this is
taken into consideration when deciding what information should be included within each
lesson plan!

Build and test the course's initial version.

The first thing you need to do is build and test the course's initial version. You can use a
course-selling platform, such as Wise, to get started. You'll also want to create your own
sales page for the course so that you can promote it later on.

It's important to build your online course in advance of releasing it on a course-selling

platform, so that you have time to test it and make any necessary changes before users buy it.

Set a price and sales targets for your course.

The next important step is deciding on a price. This can be really tricky, because you need to
figure out how much money you want to make while still being fair to your audience and
yourself. Here are some things to consider:

How much do you want to earn? If this is your first course, it's likely that your goal will be
more modest than if you're an experienced online teacher who has taught hundreds of
students through other platforms before creating their own course.
Consider the cost of the materials and any other expenses related to creating and selling
this course—and then decide whether they're worth more than what they'll bring in.
Set a target number of sales for each week or month, depending on how often people like
yourself tend to purchase courses from similar platforms (e.g., Udemy).

Decide how to market your course.

Once you've created your course, it's time to start marketing. You can use a variety of
strategies to market an online course, including social media, email marketing and podcasts.

Here are some ideas for how you could market your course:
 Create a blog or podcast where you teach other people how to do what you do in the
course (and make sure they know where they can get the actual product). This will help
those who are interested in what you have created but don't buy immediately feel like
there is more value in buying from you than from anyone else because they'll have access
to additional content.
Offer webinars about general topics related to what's covered in your online course as
well as specific topics related specifically toward your niche (if any). For example, if one
of the modules in my own online coaching program was about attracting clients and then
selling them services—I might have a webinar on how best practices for attracting clients
apply across all niches instead of just focusing on my own specialty area; or I might also
offer webinars on different types of businesses so that people who are interested but not
yet ready for my product still get some value out of attending these events without having
invested too much money upfront.
Use social media like Linkedin, Instagram, or Facebook to build a personal brand around
the subject of your course prior to the launch, and then sell the course to the audience
that you have built.

Start marketing the course in advance of its release date.

The first thing to do is start marketing the course in advance of its release date. This is
important because it will help create interest in your course, which will give you more time to
build an email list of potential buyers and drive traffic to your landing page.

Start by using social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter to build
awareness about what you're creating. The best way to do this is through video content—
people are far more likely to watch video content than static images or text posts when it
comes down it getting their attention on social media platforms. If you don't want (or don't
know how) create videos yourself then hire someone who does! Another great way for people
who don't have any experience making videos is by doing live interviews with other experts
or entrepreneurs in their niche - these tend to be very popular because they're something
new that most people haven't seen before!

Create a sales page for the course on your site or blog or on the
course-selling platform you choose
You’ll need to put together a sales page for your course. A sales page is a marketing tool that
encourages potential customers to buy your product. It should include an explanation of the
product, information about its benefit and pricing, as well as clear calls-to-action (CTAs)
urging people to buy now or click here to get more information.

A good sales page will help you sell more courses because it gives you an opportunity to

show off what makes your course unique and why it’s worth buying.
