  • Ep 12: Stats About E-learning That Will Make You Start Creating Online Courses and Programs

    It doesn’t matter at what age you start to become an entrepreneur, you’re never too young nor too old to share your own knowledge and skills online, reach more people, and make an impact on the world. You can do this at your own pace and with whatever means you’re comfortable in using. The online industry is getting bigger and you must take part in learning how it works, whether you run a brick-and-mortar business or you simply plan to start an online business.

     

    In this episode, I’m going to give you stats about E-learning that will make you start creating online courses and programs so that you can help provide information people need around the world and at the same time make money from it without the hassle.

    • There are opportunities for all of us to turn our knowledge and our skills into online courses and programs.
  • The average entrepreneur in North America is 40 years old.
  • I want you to understand that as we’re going through this and as I start breaking down the numbers in terms of how people can make money online selling information, selling courses, selling programs, I want you to know that it’s never too late.
  • By 2025, E-learning which is the Electronic Learning industry, is going to be $325 billion.
  • It’s not just professional programs and courses, we’re talking about learning anything. So, you have the information that people need.
  • Mobile learning can grow to about $78.5 billion worldwide by 2025.
  • The more that you make learning accessible for people, the more likely that you’re going to get more people engaged in learning.
  • Self-paced online learning, that market is going to be about $15.86 billion by 2021, and this is only in the U.S.
  • You don’t have to know how to design a course, there are lots of people out there who can teach you how to design a course.
  • Even if you have a brick-and-mortar business, even if you have a storefront, even if you have physical products, you can still add an E-learning component to your business.
  • That’s the brilliance of having an online course or program or information. You can design it once, and make money from it forever.
  • In 2019, the U.S. Federal Government generated $2.2 billion in revenue through self-paced E-learning products.
  • If you love your job and you don’t want to leave your job, you can still develop E-learning products and courses and sell them online and it’s not going to interfere with your work. If you don’t love your job, then you can grow your E-learning products and services and advertise to reach more people so that you can scale that business, make more money, and quit your job.
  • You can help people. You get to help people change their lives, you get to make a greater impact in their lives, you get to see the results of your courses and your programs.
  • If you’re one of those people who aren’t comfortable being on camera, it’s cool, you don’t have to be. All you have to do is develop a slideshow or presentation or use a talking head and away you go. And that’s the awesome thing about this, it’s all about you and what you feel comfortable doing.
  • Regardless of the type of business that you have, you have the ability to add a course component.

  • Ep 11: The only 4 changes you need to make to change your life

    There are times when people feel stuck in life and uncertain about their future. They feel like nothing’s new and just constantly live in that everyday, ordinary life. Eventually, life gets dull. So why don’t you spice things up and make a change? Step out of the box and enter a new chapter of your life. Bring back the excitement and the thrill of how great it is to be alive.

    In this episode, I’m going to give you 4 changes that you need to make if you want to change your life so that you get to try and do new things you never even thought you were capable of. Once you do, you get to learn and experience different perspectives and get fulfillment from achieving them.

    • [3:02] You're here for a purpose. You have a greater mission. You have people who are looking to you for advice and guidance and looking to see how you wake up and tackle this world every day. 
  •  [3:33] There's something special about you and you need to find out what it is and you need to pursue excellence and pursue your greatness so that you can be that leader and role model to other people who look to you.
  • [5:12] Even though I couldn't see it for myself, I thought there must be more to life than just struggling every day financially and emotionally. Struggling with my health, my personal development, and my personal growth. 
  • [6:27] Change the way you talk to yourself and about yourself. 
  • [7:30] It starts with you. It starts with you saying to yourself these very amazing and powerful affirmations or mantras.
  • [9:04] Anytime that you feel that you're about to say something negative about yourself or you have these negative thoughts about your situation, I want you to go to that positive statement. 
  • [10:16] If you can believe negative words, sentences, and phrases about yourself and you act as if they're true, why can't you switch that up? Why can't you tell yourself how powerful and amazing you are and start to walk in that truth? 
  • [11:53] Change what you do on a daily basis that isn't serving you in a powerful way. 
  • [12:43] You really have to do an inventory of how you spend your time and I promise you once you do that, you'll see that you can take that time and probably spend it in ways that are going to help you move your life forward and make it through a situation or get out of this rut you're in or whatever it is that you feel is holding you back. 
  • [13:20] If you want something different, you have to do something different. 
  • [14:54] Change your mindset. Changing your language and your actions are going to help you to change your mindset. Like we have to learn to program our minds for success and greatness and to create the life we deserve. 
  • [15:48] When you can visualize success, when you can see it for yourself, you don't necessarily have to know the "how" but you know that it's going to happen. 
  • [18:25] Create vision boards, put up images in your home, in your office, in your car, on your smartphone. Put these visuals up of what you're trying to create. 
  • [20:07] Change your habits. 
  • [20:14] Actions make habits. 
  • [21:17] Play more towards the habits that are going to move you through fear, self-doubt, challenging situations, and areas of your life that you're just struggling or you find challenging.  
  • [23:17] Massive action is necessary for massive change. 
  • [24:37] Habits are powerful because what you do every day automatically is going to determine your level of success, happiness, and joy in your life.

  • Ep 10: 5 Ways Coaching Can Help You Power Up Your Life and Business

    People tend to make bad decisions and get lost in their goals. Usually, you seek out people that have similar experiences or mentors that have been there and done that. But what if that isn’t enough and you need a professional! Someone who is focused on helping you get clear about what you really want, identify your blind spots, and give you strategies to accomplish your goals and dreams.

    In this episode, I’m going to give you 5 ways coaching helps power up your life and your business so that you can find clarity in what you want and reach your full potential to achieve.

    • [2:27] When you look at every successful person, regardless of their profession, of what they do, and of the impact that they make, every single one of them has a coach. 
  • [3:00] We need to go to people who have the information that we need that will stop us from making mistakes and struggling. 
  • [4:40] I was just fed up with living life in the middle that I began to consider coaching. 
  • [5:20] I want you to have the clarity that you're seeking. I want you to know what you want in all areas of your life. I want you to be able to build your own personal brand, to make a greater impact in the world, and to do what you love for a living. 
  • [6:17] Everything goes from you thinking things are impossible in your life, to possible, to you actually taking action in doing it, to achieving it. 
  • [6:53] Coaching can help you to gain more clarity in your life. 
  • [8:07] Once you're clear, now you can get focused. 
  • [8:36] Coaching really helps you to shift your mindset. 
  • [11:23] It's not always about knowing exactly what your next step is, it's about having the mindset to know that you'll figure it out along the way. 
  • [12:41] Coaching is all about accountability. 
  • [13:22] Really great coaches are only holding you accountable to do what you say you want to do for yourself and I think that's the key. Like with coaching, nobody's telling you what to do. 
  • [16:11] Accountability can move you quickly on the decisions that you know you already need to make. 
  • [16:32] Coaching can help you to realize your blind spots. 
  • [17:40] Sometimes you have these things that are holding you back that you don't even realize. They can be things from your childhood, from situations that you've been through, past failures, or failed relationships. Things that you might not see that a really good coach can help you to understand. 
  • [18:48] Coaching taps in your creativity. 
  • [19:27] We need to be creative, to be able to do fun things, to be able to color outside the lines, to be able to dream big. And when you can't do that, you feel limited. 
  • [20:52] Once I got permission and gave myself permission to dream big, to be creative, to be resilient, to explore, that's when my whole life opened up.
  • [22:15] You don't need a coach to tell you to be more creative or to give you permission to be creative. I'm just saying that they helped me to realize that I could become more creative. 
  • [23:09] With the right coach, you can step outside of who you are and start to see something bigger for yourself. 
  • [24:21] There are lots of different ways to get coaching. You can get direct coaching from somebody, whether it's one-on-one or group coaching. You can follow somebody, you can follow their work, you can take their courses and programs, read their books, and go to their seminars.

  • Ep 9: How to Build Unshakeable Confidence

    Lacking confidence is something that a lot of people experience that’s also keeping them from achieving goals. When a seemingly difficult or new task is coming our way, some of us imagine the worst-case scenario right away. This is what holds us back in our lives. This is what keeps us from becoming successful.

    Let me share with you 8 tips from the lessons I’ve learned along the way into having that unshakeable confidence. All these tips have helped me make major shifts in my life and helped me to overcome my fears and self-doubt. 

    • [5:01] Spend time understanding who you really are.
  • [7:02] Catch, release, and replace negative thoughts.
  • [7:21] Ask yourself, why am I thinking this? Where does this come from?
  • [11:29] Do it scared. You just have to acknowledge that you’re just not in the most confident state right now. You’re still gonna do it coz you know you’ll make it through.
  • [12:23] The fear is not as great as you think. We always think about the worst outcome. Instead of making it the opposite and thinking how powerful and positive it could be.
  • [12:57] Keep an I am list. Make a list of all the amazing things you love about yourself.
  • [15:00] Stop thinking about the worst-case scenarios and start thinking about the best-case scenarios.
  • [15:29] Focus on how you will feel once you take action. Who you will become once you take action.
  • [15:55] Learn more. Learn more about yourself. Learn more about the situation. Learn more about the topic you’re presenting on. Learn more about the audience you’re speaking to. Learn more about the challenging situations you have to confront.
  • [16:22] The more prepared that you are, the more confident you will be.
  • [16:52] Preparation is knowing yourself.
  • [17:25] When you can speak about something from a position of understanding, you’re going to get more confident. You’ll be more confident than when you do nothing.
  • [18:20] Be around people who make you feel confident. 
  • [21:09] My mentors and coaches saved my life.
  • [23:22] If you’re the type of person who’s lacking confidence or lacking self-esteem, let me tell you, there’s something special about you.

  • Ep 8: How to Start a Business With No Money

    You can become a freelancer or your own consultant right now, completely with no money down. All you simply have to do is sign up for a lot of these websites that already have people who are looking for somebody with your skills, apply for those gigs, and then start doing the work and start getting paid.

    The world is changing. Most products and services are moving online. Digitizing brick-and-mortar businesses is something you must adapt to reach more people around the world. Figure out your own skills that could be shared online and use them to start a business.

    In this episode, I’m going to give you 7 things you can do to start an online business with no money so that you can share your passion, help people with their needs, and at the same time earn from it in the virtual world.

    • [2:03] Find something that you are passionate about and figure out a way to monetize that. 
  • [2:58] You can sell your skills. 
  • [3:44] A large proponent of your business has to be digital or online because the world is changing. And also, having online services or products allow you to reach so many more people. 
  • [5:50] If you have skills, you can monetize those as a freelancer or as a consultant. 
  • [8:54] You can become a freelancer on your own and start applying to jobs either online or through word of mouth. 
  • [9:57] Affiliate marketing is about you, finding products and services that you like, promoting them, and getting paid to do that. 
  • [10:41] Affiliate marketing can be quite lucrative for some people, especially if you have a lot of followers on social media or you have a large email list. 
  • [12:59] A monthly membership is basically where every month, you decide that you're going to put out some information or teach something to a group of people. 
  • [13:25] Try an online membership. People pay a monthly membership then you do online teaching. 
  • [16:05] You can develop a step-by-step process, turn that into an online course, and you can start selling that course right now.
  • [16:35] Here's the great thing about developing an online course, you develop it once and you sell it forever. 
  • [18:20] The great thing about a coaching program is that you're teaching people to live again. It's kind of similar to a monthly membership but with a coaching program, there's more of a start and an endpoint. Monthly memberships can go on for years but coaching programs have a designated kind of start and end to a program. 
  • [19:30] Anything that you know, you can teach and put that into a program. 
  • [22:27] You can start by just getting a group of people together, on the phone, or on a video call and just walk them into a process. 
  • [22:44] Drop shipping is where you buy and sell other people's products. It's kind of like affiliate marketing except you can sell products that you don't even have. 
  • [23:29] The great thing about dropshipping is, a lot of it can be white-label, meaning that you can put your own company name on it, you can make up a company name, and get them to put it on your product. 
  • [25:13] Digital products can be information packages, e-books, and audios that you sell online. 
  • [28:13] Always start with something that you're passionate about, curious about, and lights a fire under you and then figure out a way to monetize that in some type of digital form or online, even if you are doing bricks and mortar.
