Understanding Why People Don't Buy Your Online Course

In this episode, James Marland of Course Creation Studio discusses why people are reluctant to purchase online courses. He asserts that individuals are not inherently interested in courses but seek solutions to their problems. Marland explains the concept of a 'dream client', actively seeking a solution to a problem they are passionate about solving. The episode emphasizes the need to understand potential clients' concerns and create a course to resolve those issues. Furthermore, Marland mentions a series of questions aimed at understanding the struggles of the potential client. He concludes by mentioning his one-sheet course navigator tool to help evaluate potential online courses.
