Create an online course
Create an online course: from idea to your first paying student.
You know something others would pay to learn: working with AI, photography or bookkeeping for freelancers. Here is how to turn that knowledge into a course you sell through your own channels, step by step.

Six steps towards a course that sells
Many courses stall because they try to cover too much. Keep yours small and specific.
- Choose one outcome. What will students be able to do afterwards that they cannot do now? “Find your first ten customers through LinkedIn” is clearer than “everything about LinkedIn”.
- Test demand. Put a sign-up form on your link page and talk about it in three posts. Twenty sign-ups are enough to start.
- Create short lessons. Aim for five to eight lessons of six to ten minutes. Cover one subject per lesson, with an exercise or download.
- Record with what you already have. A phone and a quiet room are enough. Students pay for what they learn.
- Set your price. Work backwards from the value of the outcome for your student. On Growth, a € 97 course leaves you almost € 90 after Findori’s 7.5% fee, before Mollie’s fees.
- Sell where your audience already is. Put the sales page first in your bio link and email your subscribers.
