066: Wes Kao - Creating High-Dollar Online Courses That Sell


Listen Later

In this episode I talk to Wes Kao, co-founder of altMBA. Her latest startup is called Maven, and it's all about cohort-based courses.

Wes is fantastic at course design. Before Maven, she did a bunch of amazing things working with a lot of different creators.

We talk about the State Change Method, which is something I use to make my presentations much more interesting. We talk about building an audience on Twitter. We also talk about course design, cohort-based courses, and a lot of other fun things.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Tips for writing short-form content that boosts engagement
  • A big advantage Twitter gives you over other platforms
  • How to know if your content is ready to publish
  • Why cohort-based courses are so lucrative
