Imagine spending months building the perfect online course—only to hear crickets at launch. In this episode, I break down why that happens and reveal the critical mistake many course creators make: skipping validation. I walk you through five proven validation methods, from simple surveys to powerful presale strategies, that will help you avoid wasted effort and ensure there’s real demand for your course before you create it. Whether you’re new to course creation or refining your next big idea, this episode will give you the tools to confidently move forward and build a course people actually want.

Join me as I share insights gained from over 12 years in the online course business and $4 million in sales - plus practical steps you can implement today!
