In this video, I lay out the 7 strategies I used to successfully pre-sell an online course. Not only did this help me make sales before I even started creating the course, it also helped me create a BETTER course.
Following the rapid implementation strategy, you can gain a lot of feedback and insight as you go through the launch sequence. This is a way in which you can "fail early" and make changes before investing a lot of time and money. Or, as in this example, validate your idea early on and build the kind of product people will want to buy.

This is one of the best talking head/explainer videos I've ever watched.

Alexandra C. MacArthur do you have a product? Are you selling? Have you stopped learning and start selling some product? If yes, what is the URL of your product?

Incredible value! Many would charge hundreds and package this video up as a premium course. Thrive themes is a special company for sure. Thanks Shane!

@Thrivethemes 5 лет назад

Thank you, John!

I just stumbled on this video as I was researching on how to launch a course as a solopreneur. Its my first time and I will use all these strategies in the next few days. Thank you for such an informative video.

@mastermindtvdeutschland3096 4 года назад

One of the most valuable videos I have ever watched on RU-vid. A while ago I got my first customer to create an online-Course with. About 50 people signed up for our webinar, about half of those people watched it, but nobody bought (yet) - it is a super exciting journey and I am extremely grateful that Shane is putting out this amazing stuff - it feels deeply right to follow his advice. All the best to all of you guys that try to create outstanding courses and greets from Mannheim, Germany :-)

@munasama2184 Год назад

Thank you so much for simplifying this process!l have been overthinking how to launch my course and am now ready to start!My favourite top was tip number 5, new customers don’t like to be left in the dark after making a purchase so sending out the 5 emails is brilliant to keep them engaged!

@shelleyhunterkukuk7725 4 года назад

Just want to compliment you on all of the content you provide. I'm a new Thrive Themes customer, but am not new to online content. I'm excited to apply the things you shared. Most surprising to me is that you would sell the course before you make it. But I love the idea that you use that opportunity to get the content correct.

This was very helpful and really good information. Thank you for creating this video. I’m totally scared of a pre-launch but I kinda feel I should go for it. I’ll let this thought settle in for a week and decide. This is my first online course and I’ll take a lot from this video! 🙏🙌🏻

@ladyl4147 2 года назад

Most useful and surprising is what you do before you even complete writing your course. This completion has been stymieing me because I’m really ready to go but I feel I need that push and inspiration. This will be my first online course and the other really helpful thing since it is now November, is for me to ride the wave of people’s New Year’s resolution and pick a first week of January launch day. Yes give them time to sober up after New Year’s eve and launch.

@CrystalGray 5 лет назад

@Goatsontheroad 5 лет назад

Your best video yet Shane. Super actionable and well-produced. Great. I was most surprised about taking sales before creating the content! I did the opposite but like this strategy for my next course. (Perhaps without the pressure of the quick deadline)

@Thrivethemes 5 лет назад

Thank you! :)

@ml-ec5dw 3 года назад

You are the business!!! This simple yet hugely impression video has set me on the way to creating my first rapidly implemented course to be green lighted on the first week of Jan 2020. I am almost speechless, I kid you not, at how appropriate all your advice and strategies are for me right now! Which one is the best? Well, the combination of the parts means that the whole is much much better than any individual part could possibly be. Therefore, one alone is simply not enough, I wanted the whole cake and you have delivered - 5 stars no less. And it doesn't stop there. Given what I expect to be a successful launch, I want to continue on and present part two of a series in September and I will want to discuss with your company how I can do that with you. Many many thanks! Ps. the idea to actually produce a customer focused course by extracting the info of their needs before creating the course I have come across before, but the sequencing of blog post to comments to sales page fills the gaps of the actual practice, which is yet another star for you to pick up!

@CyrusLemonius 3 года назад

Love this strategy walkthrough. However, the key thing missing is stating that you need a warm audience / group / email list and Autoresponder to run this rapid launch process. So, I think it would have been beneficial to have outlined these as pre-requisites fo this strategy to work. However a great strategy for those with a warm audience of followers!

@evanskenn179 2 года назад

While it's a fact he had a warm audience, you can still get the same result with a simple Facebook Ads. Simply create a Facebook ads to test your idea and see the response you get, if you get enough people raiding hands you go forward... So Warm audience or Not, this is GOLDMINE!

@projetoculturaldelas 4 года назад

Hey Shane! Thanks a lot for your video and tips! You're amazing! I'm a newbie on Thrive and feeling absolutely enchanted with all I got until now!! One question here: in these 4 days between the final purchase deadline and the beginning of the course were you able to create all classes and put it into the platform? How has the next step? Or since the first purchase, you started recording the classes? In the scenario, people buy on the last day, what to do?

@jasonstallworth 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for this Shane. I’m getting ready to launch a low ticket eBook and find myself getting hung up on some of the details.

@Thrivethemes 5 лет назад

I hope our content helps! Next video will be interesting for you. Low ticket items can be way more difficult to sell than most people realize...

@jasonstallworth 5 лет назад

@@Thrivethemes I shall patiently await the next video! I re-watched this video 2x more, took notes and took a screen shot of your full process flow at the end. The product I have is a '12 week lean muscle' workout program eBook (about 80 pages) and I have spent a LOT of time making sure it provides the best value. However, I will only sell it for either $9.95, $14.95, or $19.95 (haven't decided and need to research other product prices in this genre). My original flow was to offer a free condensed version of the product, pitch the product on the thank you page and email series to follow (I will segment so that those who purchase do not receive the promotion emails), and when the purchase is made they will receive a mix of content/value along with affiliate products I promote that compliment the workout. Once this series ends, I will move them to my main list to where I'll send only 1-2 emails per week. I know this is a lot, but if you can offer any additional advice (or even use this for one of your videos) that would be helpful! Thank you (also, I am a Thrive customer and LOVE to ease of use of your products)

@ProducerRoderick Год назад

@Thrivethemes Год назад

@JenniferRMaxwell 4 года назад

Another excellent session! Thank you!! I'm curious though - how far out do you set your course start date if you haven't written it yet? What's the 'magic timeframe' customers will wait between purchasing a course, and the course beginning? And how long would your typical course or sessions, or product be? Thanks!

investing in a good camera is needed for RU-vid. Although some phones can do it. Most successful RU-vidrs use a good camera.

I love the idea of sending customers to a survey. I also really like the value-driven email sequence with the final sales email. Sometimes I feel like I'm yelling at people when I use more traditional sales sequences. Question: Is there a way to access each piece of this launch? The emails, sales page 1.0, sales page 2.0. etc.? Cheers!

Thanks for your comment! You can download a PDF with the email copy here: thrivethemes.com/online-course-1/

@amandah4412 3 года назад

All well and good, you mentioned low to almost no cost. I think it's important to note the cost of website hosting, CRM system, creating an email list, there are some costs involved, although low... I'd say you need a few hundred at least.

@Capt-es4wc 4 года назад

@Achievly 5 лет назад

Shane... It's been proven the most important part of the sales page is the headline correct? Let's get some text animation effects, please!!! Even just making the "Typefocus Animation" a one time only animation option so the headline looks to be typed out once on page load would go a long way.

@giliegg 5 лет назад

Wow i love how you did an experiment by launching it as a solopreneur! Thank you!! I am planning to launch a course later this year and am thinking about using some local online course platform (kinda like udemy but in chinese). And as i was deciding about whether to use clickfunnel to run my website i stumbled upon thrive and love the videos you share. One question, will the apprentice works in other languages like chinese? (do i have to consider tax related stuff?)

@Thrivethemes 5 лет назад

Hmm, good question. I think pretty much everything in our products can be localized. However, I don't know if it would end up being really suitable for Chinese...
