How to Choose a Course Topic  

Are you one of those people who have too many ideas? For those of us who love diving into new projects, picking a topic can stop us before we get started. Focus can help when it’s time to create your course.  

To get your started, I’m outlining 3 ways to narrow your focus so you can decide on the main thing. A final note: don’t worry if someone else has already done it. As artists we’re all bringing our own special sauce that’s not going to be like any others.

Artist Success Stories  

When I wanted to sell my first art class, I didn’t have many people on my email list. I knew I needed to reach new people, so I used Facebook ads. I’m explaining my exact strategy that you can copy in your own way.  

This has worked for many others and I’m sharing examples because I want you to know you can do this too.
