Dude. I am from Irvine, hometown Irvine company owns everything there. Now I'm making videos in Vietnam after 7 years making them in China, just past 30k. Thank you for your years of training.
I joined during the VRA 1.0 era. Best course I've invested in. If you are serious about making a difference on TH-cam, this is where it's at. Thank Sean and the rest of the VRA fam for being awesome and an amazing community. 💯
I agree. I have been in Sean's VRA for a few years. It just keeps giving back more information--for free. Although he keeps on saying that part of it may become a subscription program in the future. It is currently a buy now and continue to get free ideations in the future deal. It's an awesome deal!

Story story, no process. Outta here Shawn
This video is thought provoking. So far, all of my content on TH-cam are free videos to help fathers navigate divorce and family court. But I can see with your video that with something like kajabi, I might be able to provide more value added work products for my audience.... that I cannot do on a TH-cam video.
Thanks Sean! We are still grinding at Diadem Life. Hopefully we can grind smarter and get our first course go in the summer. When we win I'll have to personally thank you someday.
Ok, the main hang up for me is how do you actually sell your course. Step by step. I need someone to actually document the steps. I’ve been told everything but shown nothing. Not a slight to you but how ?
I was actually meeting with our StoryBrand coach today on messaging and this is actually what we were doing. I was laying out the sales page and laying out the design of the course. We're now I can go back and shoot the videos right to PDF documents and the text.
He wants you to sign up for his products to find out 😉 I know he’s just storytelling, I’m gone
Figure it out. If you want to be a real entrepreneur, you have to do the work!
I own a technology and digital media business, have a degree in Radio-TV Production & film/drama, etc. and taught for 18 years so my background definitely prepared me to do this kind of stuff. For me, it is only one of my education and technology projects but I have been successful with it in the past as well as now. With AI-assisted course creation, one can create courses faster but be SURE that you make it your own by editing if you choose this route. Good luck everyone but remember, you make your own luck by kicking yourself in the a--- everyday to keep going. Do it your way. Don't look for answers from others. Learn what you can from them then do it DIFFERENTLY!
Bursted laughing at the bird suit story 😂
Dude this is amazing. I’ve been thinking of this for a long time but can’t commit to something wondering if my knowledge is enough to bring value, but this is gold and rejuvenated my faith. Thank you.
Kind of like the mafia, I guess🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sean, you crack me up!
Hi! Thanks for this video. I have been toying around a course idea for two years now. My problem was that I wanted to build a super Cadillac course with all the bells and whistles. I reality what the average client needs might be a simple Toyota Prius. I have decided to take the plunge and release the simplified course as soon as possible. Thanks for the inspiration!
Watching this from the beginning and yes there’s work involved but not like chipping at rocks with a pickaxe. Lol. I hate figuring out how to edit my website so I avoid it. It is hard. I need to learn how to do it. Trying to upload a picture, edit it, caption it, etc is time consuming and can have challenges (size is too small or wrong format). But once it’s done I can earn money off it. I need to figure this out and really get focused on my website.
Thanks Sean, I can relate a lot to the joke about "but my website is under construction, make sure to save the bookmark, the course is coming" 🤦🏻♀️. If you are a solopreneur and with a modest budget, it can get overwhelming at some point to wear so many hats. I've been slowly working on a big certificate course for wellness practitioners yet that was definately a mistake. I should have earher focus either on a membership community creating bits of content every month and then uniting some of them in a course or creating one of a few smaller courses to grow the community as well.
There are many people who make big income with affordable courses. Not to discount the value of expenses programs (if you have potential clients for that). What is important more and more with time is to simplify things and workflow as much as possible. As getting older you will want to enjoy life more with free time and not to juggle complex business systems.
And Charlene is lovely indeed. She was one of the first people talking about SMM who I watched and liked on youtube 🌻.
This is fascinating. Thanks for sharing.
2:53, you are so informative. Thank you for your dedication to helping us succeed with TH-cam. I made it all the way on the replay🎉
This whole video is pure VALUE..
Loved the bird suit moment!
This was really helpful, thank you.
Hi Sean, love your videos! What are you using in this video to facilitate such a slick screen share of your presentation as you speak?
I just finished a 7 days tours of as supposed "Academy" a pastor and some other people encouraged me to do my own courses because of my experience l, authority and knowledge. Because of it, I am re-watching for the 2nd time.
So, that is my next plan. Thanks Sean
Awesome video!!!
Thank you Sean, this is mind blowing! Im touching this idea from almost 1 year...its time to act🚀
It was you!!!! The one guy on the treadmill!! I used to live at Los Olivos apartments. On Pintado st. Lol!
Loving your experiential wisdom 🎉🎉
my a-ha moment is streaming business because I will be selling posters
Lots of excellent advice regarding courses.
Sean, I really hate I missed this live. Thank you for all of this. I had a course up for eight months and I’m gonna be redoing it.

@@ThinkMediaTV ?
Whoa!😃
Thnx a Ton!!!👊
I have the bones of course to lower blood sugar in 90 days. I have the bones because I didn't know what to do with it. I'm half way through this video and I'm excited to finish my course
Hi how are you doing? I go by Rev.Fred nice to see you. This video was fantastic and you gave me great info. I’m looking forward to following up and getting more information. I’ve already created an online course. I’ve already done a lot of the things that you recommend. I have a TH-cam channel. I’ve been doing a podcast on it for a while. I’m at episode 41 I just have very few followers, and not even close to being at a point where I can monetize but I think I’m in the right path to do the right thing as you mention in this video I’m a pastor there’s not any money to be made as a pastor but it is something I love to do I love to help people, my course along the same lines I’m looking forward to figuring out what to do next. I’ve also done a lot of different jobs in order to make money while I’m working in the ministry and I have recently lost. My job that supported my ministry work this gives me the opportunity and the time to focus on my online course.I just am not ready to pay in just yet.
Hi Reverend, have you tried using paid ads to boost your client base? If not you can offer a free product and build your contact base. Google a local digital ad company near you and they can assist. Good luck and God Bless.
Royal Coffee ☕ my favourite
Thanks so much, Sean for this podcast! It was fire 🔥🔥🔥! I really learned a lot which would help me in my journey as a course creator and aspiring TH-camr. I'm glad I came across your channel just about a week ago! You have so much impacted my journey as a coach, creator and aspiring TH-camr! And I must say, I admire your faith in God and your willingness to identify with God even on a secular platform like TH-cam. Stay blessed, Sean!
Hey, you’re mentioning Colombia a lot in this video. I’m a missionary in Colombia and am making short explainer videos to help with evangelism and discipleship. I’ve learned a lot from you about how to produce these videos well. Thanks!
Thanks 🙏 so much
The logic is there, but as someone who has followed all the steps, be ready for failure alot. I spent 6 months creating a course, had a pre-sales group with feedback from customers/subscribers as I was creating the course, had a landing page, did youtube and fb ads, and got maybe 6 sales in a span of 2 years. My course isn't even expensive. Lol. Fail!!! Definitely went negative on ad spend and my time. Nobody hears about the failures like my situation. Good luck to you all. Maybe I'll try again in 2024 with the course, for now I'm going back to my core business.
I think you should give it another shot. Some of the points are pretty hard to argue with. Do you have an email list?
@@ryan_darks I won't give up, just putting it on halt until 2024. Spent way too many resources and time for negative ROI. Nobody hears my kind of stories, it is only the success ones. I did all the steps. My email list has 800 targeted contacts. You can see I am active on TH-cam and actually have a business. Selling online courses is super tough.
Happy Aloha Sunday / my replay morning 🌄 🤙🌺🌴
hey sean, i've been keeping myself from making my online course but in a recent FB group convo, there was some interest in me just saying that its coming. I have the shell/outline created but have been putting of the recording. THis was a great help and just encouraging to get started. My channel is continuously growing and have become a resource to others (based on some FB group comments). Just wanted to say thank you. Also any course hosting sites?
Do you use a teleprompter and Stream Deck to switch the views?
@Sean Cannell It should be noted that in order to be an affiliate, some creators require that you've purchased their course yourself.
Others are fine with it if you don't (smart).
I understand the importance of recommending products that you use and approve of.
However, while some courses are on my bucket list, after following/studying the creators for so long, I feel qualified to recommend the products to help my tribe!
What could potentially be a win-win-win is, unfortunately, a loss for all.
This ENITRE VIDEO was 🔥!!!!!!---- the offer to MIA and the content ( AWESOME) --- however, the coffee content made you my favorite YTber---#coffeesnobsunite
How do you edit a upload video?
1:43:00 as a chef I can confirm this as fact. Coffee changes flavor profiles as it changes temperatures (like most foods) I strongly advise trying it black. Most people don't enjoy coffee, they enjoy the sugar and fat added to it
Awesome video and cool story about your Grandparents.
Cool cheers from portugal
I am an expert in teaching ESL, but I am absolutely lost when it comes to putting an online course together
that's were the titanic hit and sunk because of the iceberg
@Sean: My struggle is the content. I have a niche. I have a list of courses that solve a problem in that niche. However, I don’t know how to deliver it. Should it be PowerPoint? Video only? Voiceover with videos or slides? I would love to have a template that breaks down what to use for modules/lessons. Any ideas or starting points?
Does anyone know what software/program Sean uses for this webinar? It seems like a great tool for building a course. Thank you for your help!
I think he uses StreamYard @AlexanderRabu
Jeex thisvideo drags
TH-cam OR UDEMY? Im creating a course for UDEMY but I've been struggling between them... which is going be the key to my future.?
what are you strugging with?
sorry, it's not a tech stack but a marketing stack
Can I use an online course platform which helps make your own course or is it better to just make a website?
you can do either. there are course platforms that are easy and have lots of tools to help you with marketing or you can just do it yourself if you want to start off light
Folks, don't come to sites like this and expect a magic formula. This is a BUSINESS like anything else. There's no exact PROCESS either. Just do it and make it different and better than your competition. I have been making thousands and thousands as a content writer every month for 10 years. I'm creating online courses now too and i never saw this guy's videos until today. DO IT YOURSELF and don't look for a magic potion. The magic is within yourself.
i hate coffee, but still drink the kind my wife gets that boosts metabolism. i wait til its cold enough to chug it all in 1 go.
on a side note love the info here. I've been an "info broker" for awhile now, but you've been motivating me into creating my own
what year were you born
What year were you are born? I was born in 1993
1983
How did you get the 4,000 watch hours back then? In one year/365 days? That’s where I struggle the most
Great info! But can someone please show up and knight me lol
Watching Teenage Mutant Turtles Cartoon with daughter, get to be young again
you should cut the coffee part... been waiting for something useful after the coffee and nothing.
12 x 500 = 6000
bro.... that poor bird suit almost ruined you. Glad you overcame.
Usually love Sean’s content, but this is a “why-to”, not a “how-to”. Lots of stories, no substance at 1hr 15mins. Toodaloo.
Sorry man but you talk to much about yourself. Your supposed to be giving us this unbelievable info but instead your gloating 😔
I hope to be a sponge with every this dude and @nicknimmon has to say. They are the sensai
