- Anyone that is passionate about teaching and would like to make some passive income selling online courses.
Let's take action right away. The number one reason students don't create an online course is because they don't even get started. In the next 5 minutes I challenge you to record and upload your first lecture. It doesn't have to be perfect, it doesn't matter what you teach. You can worry about perfection later, this is about loosening up, making mistakes, learning and enjoying the process. Are you ready? Let's do it!
The lasy thing you want to do is spend weeks creating an online course that no one wants to buy. To avoid that you need to validate your course idea before you build the course. In this chapter we will cover 3 validation stages.

Do you struggle trying to make your lectures look professional?
