Online courses are selling like cakes. And there are very few things that you are supposed to do when it comes to selling.
Video Content
Video content is more in demand. The reason being video content is easy to consume. And there are some good amount of people looking for video content instead of ebook. So if you are getting into video content development, then making course that has most of the video content can make your course get into demand.
Ebook
Some of the courses are not limited to the video content. They prefer the ebook too. Adding the ebook into your course can help increase the value of ebook. This helps you make more more money in the long run. Also people get better value out of ebook this way. You should definitely consider adding ebook to your course.
Promotion
Most of the people build their website or blog before adding the course. Some people create facebook popularity before selling. This can be hard for most of the people. So your focus has to be on the forums and the social media in order to get some following.
YouTube & Udemy
YouTube is not only the place for the free videos. It can host the paid videos too. And you can make sure that youtube can generate some good revenue for you. Udemy on the other hand is another source that can complement the youtube sales. Udemy does a lot for you while promoting the content. You should consider using the YouTube Paid Video content feature.
There are some other sites apart from Udemy. You can choose Skillshare, teachable and few others. You can also use the Gumroad and few other digital content hosting site. Some of these sites have their paid plan. But you shoud initially choose only the free plan. And scale to paid plan once the earning becomes regular from the courses. Otherwise it is better to save money with free plan.
What I have tried
I have used the Udemy and YouTube. And though my courses are now old. I had few sales. But It helps to upload the content which stay for longer. It can be a good idea to have the content updated reguarly. Otherwise the content may not be in demand. And people often get out of the course if they don't get much out of the courses. Also this may also lead to the refunds.
Conclusion
Courses are trendy. But the courses with some credentials behind them sale the most. But it takes time to make the credential and create persona. Your focus should be to try to be a persona on social media from which people can buy. This effort alone will help a lot in selling your course. That step alone can help a lot towards future. If you choose to go through this model of making earning, It helps to be focused on the evergreen content. My suggestion is learn from others content and design the course accordingly.
