How to Presell & Validate your Online Course in 2023

If you’re preparing to build your first online course but are anxious about how it will perform and if anyone will even purchase it in the first place, focus your attention on this key fact: There is power in pre-selling.

Creating your course before you have paying customers is a great way to waste your time, leave a lot of money on the table, and create an inferior product.

That's why, in this video, I show you how to sell your course BEFORE you build it and make sure that once it's built, people will actually want to purchase the content you’ve worked so hard to create.
