How to build and sell online courses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In this guide I’m going to outline a step-by-step process showing you how to build your own online course with Kajabi. The key steps are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Plan<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Prepare<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Build<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Test<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Launch<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    If you are going to build an online business and sell online courses, a simple but robust development process is a must. These are the details you won’t find in Kajabi University but are critical to online course creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Plan your Kajabi course outline<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The first step is planning your course outline. Whether your are building a mini-course with just a few small lessons or a flagship online course, membership sites, or program with dozens of lessons and resources, the planning process is the same. The specifics vary depending on which online course platform you are using.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Investing the time up front to plan and map out your course outline will make the rest of the process go MUCH faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I’ll use a cooking analogy to set the stage. Imagine you have friends coming over for dinner and you want to treat them to appetizers, a main course, and a dessert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Without a plan, you’ll be throwing things together at the last minute, missing key ingredients, starting over a few times, and most likely serving at best a mediocre dinner that is late and overcooked.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n

    Now imagine the difference with a proper plan. You know exactly what you are going to prepare. You have recipes for each with the specific ingredients and amounts. You’ve bought all of the ingredients ahead of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    When it’s time to cook the three parts of the meal, it’s now just a matter of following basic instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Since you are organized, you can probably have a drink and converse with your friends while cooking instead of running around panicking like the previous example!<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n

    For your course outline, think of it just like that set of three recipes. All online courses have these three basic elements: Sales funnel (in Kajabi these are called pipelines), the course itself (videos, resources, assessments, etc.), and a support mechanism (emails, chat, group calls, etc.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To keep the process organized, I’m including with this article the exact outline template we use with our agency client’s when we build their courses for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    There’s a lot more to beautiful online courses than just your videos. You will need sales funnels with landing pages and sales pages. A membership site or area, course pages, and more. Kajabi provides all the tools you need but again the more organized you are going in, the more quickly you of your team can build your program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
