About this template

A course gets made when the recording starts before the outline is perfect. This project is eight weeks: the outline in week one, a lesson recorded every session, the edit and the platform in parallel, and a small launch to people who already asked.

Tips from the template

  • Sell it to ten people before you record; the outline improves overnight.
  • Record in batches; set up once, record three.
  • Launch to the waiting list first.
