Maybe you’re thinking about creating an online course.

A lot of people want to start creating their own online courses and I’m even making one to teach people how to create an online course that’s coming later this year.

It makes sense: you record your curriculum, lessons, or videos once and then it’s an asset for you. It continues to serve you, teach other people, and bring in revenue automated on a consistent basis. Who wouldn’t want this?

I’m actually going to recommend that you host an in-person workshop before you create an online course.

That seems really strange because a workshop requires you being there in person, you have to teach people, you have to be present at the workshop, and you only make money at that one event.

Once it’s over, you don’t make any more money. If you want to make more money, you have to do another event.

Why would I recommend doing a workshop instead of creating an online course? Well, it’s not so much “instead of” as it is “before hand”.
