E460: How Josh Comeau built a small social media audience and email list in a year, then launched a course to it, doing $500,000 in a week-long pre-sale.

The course was only 50% complete when the limited pre-sale launched to his audience.

This is one of my best episodes yet, and I am hyped by the information in it.
