If you create an online course, your potential for earning is great. Every entrepreneur should think big and aim for impressive results. This means that your ambition should be to create a million-dollar online course. On this episode of The Sigrun Show, I am joined by Denise Duffield-Thomas to discuss how this is achievable.
Denise is a money mindset coach and mentor with a passion for helping female online entrepreneurs develop a healthy mindset around making money, getting paid what they are worth, and controlling their financial situations so they can lead fulfilling lives. She is an award-winning international speaker and has written two best-selling books: Lucky Bitch and Get Rich, Lucky Bitch.
Denise talks with me about her story, what her first few online courses were like and how she used these experiences to learn and improve her courses over time. She also discusses how following her passion led her to creating her first million-dollar course, the mindset challenges she had to overcome and gives tips to new entrepreneurs considering creating their first online course.
It’s your course, you decide. You have to feel good about what you are charging. - Denise Duffield-Thomas
