I love hearing success stories, and the best success stories are the ones that come from listeners like you. That’s what today’s episode is all about.
My guest today, Nick Stephenson, heard David Siteman Garland talk with me about creating online courses back in Session 136. Nick took action, and by the time his product launch rolled around, he was crushing it.
Just how much was he crushing it? The answer’s right there in this episode’s title—his online course for fiction writers, YourFirst10kReaders.com, launched at over $130,000. Nick’s here today to reveal just how he did that. He’ll share the tools he used and steps he took to conceptualize, develop, and launch his online course.
Nick admits that at first, he didn’t think this kind of success was possible. He’d hear stories from other online entrepreneurs but never dreamed something like that could happen for him. As his own journey proves, it can—and it can happen for you, too.
