It is also much faster that way.
* Turn your existing content (your book) into a digital course
* This has an even quicker turn around time than producing a book * This requires more online technical support * You will need to update the look and/or content from time to time * It has a higher price point if it is a course with video, audio, transcripts or worksheets, etc* You have a lot of flexibility and room for creativity in terms of what is included in the course. You can even have live components such as Q&A or 1-1 follow up sessions as a premium option* It will work better if you already have a website and online platform already
* Collaboration with other colleagues and produce an online summit, conference, masterclass/series, support group, mastermind, circles, etc.
* These collaborations can be live or recorded* You have a lot of flexibility of "What" and "How" and who you want to work with* You don’t have to do all parts, it is about leveraging your community and people you like to work with and learn from each together * These events can be evergreen depends on the topics or they can be recurring events
