Treating Your Business Like a Business
Before we jump into strategies, I want to stress the importance of treating your online course venture as more than just a side hustle. It’s your business, your baby. While there are quicker watts to make money by trading time for dollars, the real magic happens when you work smart from the start. The goal? More time and financial freedom down the road.
Strategies for Finding Time in Your Busy Schedule
1. Assess Your Daily Schedule
To kickstart your journey, write down your daily schedule. Whether you’re a stay-at-home parent or a working professional, understanding your routine provides clarity on where you can carve out time for your course creation endeavors.
2. Identify Time Slots for Course Creation
Now, think about your schedule.Could you wake up a bit earlier, utilize nap times, or squeeze in some work after the kids go to bed? Even if it’s just 30-60 minutes a day, it can make a significant difference for your business. The key is to explore options and focus on bringing your course to life.
Making the Most of Your Dedicated Time: What to Prioritize
Now, let’s talk priorities. In the beginning, skip the non-essentials. Building a website, perfecting graphics – these can wait. Instead, laser-focus on what truly matters:
1. Skipping the Frivolous Tasks: Concentrate on foundational elements that set your course up for success.
2. Prioritizing Your Niche and Email List: Choosing a profitable niche and building that email list are crucial for a successful online course. For deeper insights, check out episodes 8 and 14.
3. Diving into Course Outline and Creation: Start outlining your course and creating content. You don’t need the whole course ready – launching after a couple of modules is the way to go. Build momentum and connect with your audience without overwhelming yourself.
