We said ‘hey we’ll list the course on AppSumo in a $139 deal, and we’ll do it to get everyone’s feedback, incorporate it and then launch it for $699 on our site’. But there was a catch, the discount would only last 4 weeks before we took it off the table forever.

  • How to Launch a Course & Make $82,700 in 4 Weeks?
  • Because Appsumo gets course creators in front of literally a multi-million person email list and hundreds of thousands of eyeballs on the site. Why build your own audience, when you can steal theirs?
  • Numbers wise, our goal was to make $60k over our launch period.
  • Fast forward a few weeks, and we had generated $82,700. At 595 sales, How to Build A 7-Figure Newsletter became the highest grossing course on AppSumo. Woo hoooooo.
  • We also clawed our way into A-list collections like New & Noteworthy, Customer Favorites, and What’s Hot...all because we kept our sales numbers up.
  • Everyone has a book inside them, everyone has a course to teach another, everyone has a lesson you’ve learned that another could benefit from. So before you stop yourself thinking that you need to be a guru before you create a course... tell that lil b*tch voice in your head to knock it off. I wish more of my friends did courses!
