Class
You'd like to share your unique skillset and knowledge with an audience of students, plus earn a nice profit to boost your income. But the idea of teaching a workshop—the prep, the tech, and the admin—feels overwhelming... which is why you haven't done it yet.
i'm going to give you what you need, from prep to the day of teaching
Includes a list of all the tools you'll need to sign up for (Which level of zoom do you have to sign up for? how will you remind your students to sign in on the day of class?) and hot tips on how to best promote your class (even if. you don't use social media!)
you'll be able to focus on the magic between you & your students, without stressing over the details (I'll give you everything you need)
ready to level up your THING?
all the details
Over the past ten years, I've taught almost one hundred online workshops, using different processes for gathering the content, setting up the tech, promotion, and teaching on the day of class. Some of those classes earned five figures for a single workshop. In this new class from The Unexpected Shape™, I'll lead you step-by-step through the process of leading and creating a one-time online workshop, giving you all the details of how to do it without losing your mind with stress. After the workshop, we'll also have a forum where you can cheer on and support other students, while receiving cheer and support in return.
Just something to think about: If you charge $97 for your workshop and sell 200 spots, that's $20k for teaching one workshop
get to teach a class without fretting over details. i've got them all sorted for you
share what you know with students while working remotely and on your schedule
i absolutely get it
Deciding to teach an online workshop is one thing. It's another thing to realize that you don't know how to keep in touch with all of your students. What level of Zoom membership do you need, and should it be a meeting or a webinar? How do you make the class accessible; for example, how do you accommodate a Deaf student? How do you arrange online payments? There are a million questions that come up when you're planning for an online workshop. It's almost enough to give up entirely. Perhaps you already have.
Come join me.
