How I earned my first $1k, $10k, and $100k as an online course creator

What other questions do you have about selling online courses? (I'd love to hear any suggestions to help me choose topics for future videos!)

Hi Melissa,

For email marketing, what is your opinion on single opt-in, vs double opt-in. Do you have a video or podcast on this topic? Would be interested in hearing your thoughts.

Thanks!

Excellent video Melissa, thank you.

Wow you did amazing with ads and growing an email list! I am eager to learn more about how you did that successfully and fairly quickly

This is inspiring, Melissa. Congrats on your success.

If it’s not a secret, what microphone do you use? I’m just starting developing my online course and have no idea what a beginner mic I should purchase 🙃

killing it!

Great video. Thank you for your transparency. This was super inspiring and helpful :)

Melissa, can you have a video about creating/structuring a webinar?

Very good Info

Truly appreciate your clarity & structure on this channel, Melissa - will be shooting you a voice note on IG soon! 🌲

Sounds great

Good info. So glad I found this page before I created courses

I am absolutely mesmerized by your knowledge and ability to articulate it. I am a huge fan and I will be working with you very soon.

How can make money with tiktok

Plz do free course

Thank you for this.

Do you know of any average ratios to lean on for ad spend to revenue? As an example, if I spent 1k on ads , the average return would be x4? I know there are so many factors..quality of ad an product! But just curious!!

Great video, as a budding new course creator, thanks for sharing your experience! One thing that I didn't quite get from this: was the webinar your main source of incoming audience for the course? and was online advertising the main channel for getting the word out of the webinar in a timely fashion every week?

I need this support

Is it possible to make a video on how you do and incorporate your payment plans into your business?

Can't get enough of your videos love the way you explain things clearly! I create HQ lyric videos n motion covers, both are popular on tiktok n ig. I've worked with over 4k people and have lots of positive reviews! I wanted to know if this niche is good for a course? as I know a lot of people would like to learn and also learn how to turn it into an online business. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

I love your content! It’s so good!!

The accounting terms are “cash” & “accrual”

Cash is money in hand (what you’re doing)

Accrual is money you’ve accrued (have committed (debt and revenue))

This is so inspiring and helpful! Thank you for sharing so openly.

This video, in particular, and this channel, in general, is a real find. Melissa has genuine expertise that is immediately helpful to me in getting started with setting up an online course service.

If it helps, my background is as a strategy consultant and adjunct lecturer (post grad marketing) who ended up recording lecturers and course online due to the pandemic and is now trying to use that experience to sell consultancy & instruction online. I also don't know Melissa - I say that because I think my comment might look like a plant on reading it back. It's all genuine and watching it is, in fact, keeping me from work.

Hi Melissa, I have a big audience in most of the platforms, but I am struggling with the selling part, will you give me a hand?

So helpful! Really fabulous content. As someone investigating online course creation, I love your transparency, business savvy, and ethics sensibility. Subbed and watching more!

I’m still learning, what is an evergreen webinar funnel?

Super helpful! Thanks!

Hi Melissa! I’m just now beginning to run FB & IG ads for my health course & still pretty clueless about them. I have a decent budget, but I’d love to know where you learned to run ads or what strategy you used to grow your email list so quickly!! Any useful tips would really help! Thanks 🙏

Love the honesty in this!! Most say I made 10k blah blah blah but don’t say they spent 5k on ads

Would love to learn more about who you advertised for you online courses.

Okay I have SO many questions. I would love to know all about ads. LOVED this!

Girl you’re at 171 now!!! Way to go 😄

Congrats to you and Wit & Wire team Melissa! It sounds like it's been a lot the past 2 years with late hours and weekends. That part about spending time with family is so relatable and got me a bit.

Would love to learn more about building an engaged audience for your courses, like how do you keep adult learners’ attention and get them to give you feedback these days!? Thanks as always Wit & Wire team!
