Online Course Successes

Here we are almost at the end of 2015 and I've been so busy that I almost forgot about this little blog of mine. What have I been doing, you say? Here's a sample:
  • I decided to focus on only one or two websites instead of having so many, especially if they were in different niches. So I tried to sell CanadianWelcome.ca and ChalkLake.ca but haven't had much interest. So I will probably hold on to the domain names and try to sell them separately. As for the content, I may use it as PLR to sell or something like that.
  • I haven't done any regular webinars for awhile now. Not that I didn't want to, but life got in the way and I cancelled my GoToWebinar account since it was costing me so much money every month.
  • I'm still creating videos and hoping to do so at least once a week. I'd also like to start a weekly podcast.
  • I'm still working with a few private clients, online only, and have been using Zoom for that. It seems to work well so far.
  • I started putting a number of my courses online on the Udemy platform. I have 9 courses up now, and one of them has over 10,000 students. It started as a free course so I can't say it's been terribly lucrative. But I have made over $600 US with those Udemy courses and once they're created, they don't take a lot of work.
  • And did I tell you I was an INSTRUCTOR at NAMS last year? It was so exciting to go from a newbie there to teaching. My topic was creating an Online Course and how to use the Udemy platform.
I guess that's it for my online business life. I'm not rich or really successful yet, but I haven't given up and every year I get a little better. I'll be 67 in a few months and am looking forward to the future.

Wherever you are in your online journey, don't give up. We can make it!

Have a great day,
Carol

Opt-in Forms

I spent today creating opt-in forms for each of my blogs. Mind you, other than this one on blogger, which is so easy to install, I have no idea what to do next. My other blogs are in Wordpress and have to be copied into the HTML code. For a non-techie like me, that is a big deal. Update: With the newer versions of Wordpress and the use of widgets with most themes, adding an opt-in form is now as easy as on a Blogger blog. I went to Aweber and created my form, copied the code that's produced and pasted it into my HTML widget. And I even sound like a techie, don't I? Until next time, Carol

Youtube Videos - Are You Using Them?

Creating more Youtube videos is on my to-do list for this spring. But I think I need to take a lesson from my granddaughter's future husband and learn to use humor much more than I do. Here is a recent video he created to give you an idea of what I mean. Don't miss the surprise ending. Until next time, Carol

Jet Lag and NAMS 4

Okay, it wasn't a jet, but I did take a 747 to NAMS. And yes, I've been back for a week now. But it takes me a while to recover so you won't get all the juicy details for a bit longer yet. All I can say is I took loads of notes, hung out with some amazing people, and wish they didn't live so far away. I learned a lot and really enjoyed the sessions with Bob 'The Teacher' Jenkins, Karon Thackston, and Kathleen Gage. Of course all of the presenters were great, but those three I got the most from. And I had a 15 minute consultation with Mark Hendricks as well. The last NAMS I didn't think I had anything to discuss with him, but this time I forced myself to sign up. I was super nervous, but he was very easy to talk to, and he actually liked my idea for a membership site. I'll talk more about that another time. Once I get my notes organized, I'll give you my top ten takeaway points. Now the challenge is to do them, not stay in learning mode. So
