How Food Bloggers Use Courses to Build their Businesses

What are you an expert at? Maybe it’s cake decorating. Maybe it’s vegan cooking. Or maybe it’s cooking with the ever-so popular Instant Pot.

Regardless, you can make a course about it. And creating that course is a great way to build your online presence and business.

Randle Browning works for Teachable, a site that helps you build and sell your own online courses. She has so many tips that will help you pick the perfect course topic, create your course, and then successfully launch your course.

In this episode, Randle shares:

• Why you should pre-sell a course
• How to segment your email list based on a course
• How to gauge interest in your course idea
• How to price your course
• How to pick a topic for your course
• What “expert” means and how to feel confident enough to teach a certain topic
• Why you don’t need to be the “Ultimate Expert”
