Yes!!! My course will be purely B2B, and very high value content. Over 25 years I have made businesses hundreds of millions in profitable revenue. Which platform is best to reach business users, e.g. product management, finance, marketing and sales leaders inside of small to medium businesses?
IMHO this is the best video, at least of all the many I have researched, that is the most clear and well organized. I would love to see a Page Builder video. And also, as I am a newbie to these platforms, if you have not done so already to do a video on how the whole affiliate concept works, that would be great. I'd like to advance my knowledge on these points. Very good, job here. Please keep up the awesome work! Thanks
this is a great video thank you, I watched a few before I got to you. you must have not been posting for long, I am sure your subscribes are going to increase fast, great information and very generous with links etc. thank you you have helped me a lot I am going subscribe for sure.
@@Vil_Vas great video! Quick question, you mentioned you’d do a separate video on page builders, but I can’t seem to find it, was wondering if you made it. Also which one of these platforms is best in terms of peer learning - if you wanted the students to interact more?
Nice video... But I would really like to know what audience the platforms have? I have guided meditations as audio files I would like to try and sell online and what platform would be best for that? Podia?
Hello, Thank you for the info its very helpful. I just want to ask a few questions as I am researching the options out there. 1. Can these choices can be used / embedded on an existing website or are they standalone. 2. Are they more for one to one teaching or can they be an 'online school' with many tutors / options/ course? 3. Does the interface for these platforms allow for teacher profiles and payments etc
Thanks so much for the video. Did you ever make a video on a landing page? If not, what site do you recommend for creating one you find increases sales
Hi thank you for your video...can I pls ask what did you use to make your own video? What software? I would like to make similar videos but need advise? 😊
Very helpful, thank you. I've started setting up a course on the Thinkific free plan but may change to Podia given your information here as I've not launched yet. More on page builders would be good. Thanks again.
Ironically Podia, although I have used Thinkific and Teachable. I want an integrated platform with email and the ability to sell digital products, etc. The key challenge is sales so the email component is key for me as well as a landing page. That said, I prefer Thinkifics’s look and feel for the courses.
The biggest issue for me is not the platform but how to get students without having a mailing list. Teachable suggests to not even doing a course unless you have at least 500 names to get going. So many courses go unwatched or taken. But this video confirmed that Podia is right for me now. I think a video on how the whole workflow goes from student acquisition through course delivery (email responders, order confirmation, bundling, etc.) would be interesting.
Don’t know if I necessarily agree with the not going for it if you don’t have 500 people on your mailing list... I got sold courses before without that kind of mailing list. It all depends on your value proposition.. but yes, I’ll try to make something like you are asking for 🙂
Awesome ! What would you recommend as a cost effective method just for creating a question bank & mock exams with multiple choice answers and explanations, hence no (costly) video lessons ? Not necessarily from these options from the video, any, some advanced quiz builder basically. Thank you
Thinkific has an advanced quiz builder in it's course builder and if you even need a more effective setup for multiple choice questions or tests in general you can use the Brillium plugin. Hope this helps? I can help you with the setup
@@paganinix2845 thanks for the feedback, appreciate ! I will have look and then decide. Until then what I don't get with Thinkific (and other providers) is: how can I integrate the Thinkfic course within my WordPress (custom domain name etc) website ? Just as an external link or ? First time I am trying to make a course with my WordPress site ... thanks !
@@paganinix2845 as well, when I create this quizzes can I create a table of contents where I can kind of show/map which quiz is for which chapter of the book ? So that people can practice topics they choose not just some random questions from the whole book, thank you !
@@Bogdanbmm absolutely, you can show the outline of the quizzes and students can be aware of which part of the course the quiz is about to test. Check your FB messenger chat box, I've sent you a message
Which platform allows me to collect the email addresses of my students so that they are MY students that I can stay in touch with. I know you said that the various platform allows you to 'email your students' but is their email address held hostage within the platform?
Of all these software/tools, I would also suggest you add CourseFunnels. It allows to create courses in varieties of languages and sell them easily with its profit-boosting plugins. It also has a star review system to get feedback from my clients.
What platform would you use if you needed to be able to change language? My target audience doesn't speak English... I know it's crazy... Who doesn't these days?? But they do exist. Is there any platform where you can set the language to Hungarian or just edit the existing platform yourself somehow even if you're not techy? I'm a dinosaur 🦕 I do speak the language and could translate it but I'm useless with tech...
Hi! really liked the video, thank you! The discount links to the course platforms don't seem to be working though, any idea why or when it will be fixed? Thanks!
Interesting video. I am between learnworlds and podia. I want to be able to build a 'complete' website: home page, courses page, landing page for each course, and a blog/written resources page. I do want a decent amount of customizability. Do you have a recommendation?
Teachable offers abilities to create a more customized course than Udemy, custom landing pages with their editor even though it can be further enhanced with some technical implementations. Teachable give you power!
Not much of a comparison, no insides of the platforms, anyone can look at the features, that doesn't say anything about the user-friendliness of the platform.
Did you find out? :) I want to know what "audience" the platforms have! Like what is the best platform to use if I want to sell guided meditations as audio!
Nice video!!! And... what about the cloud, bandwidth and, most of all, best streaming platform between this? You can upload your video in all this platform? Any limitation about visit and bandwidth? Streaming how is? Fast or Slow? I test Vimeo, Uscreen, etc... and I think all this element up is very important, you don't think? You have any suggest and more info about those elements?
Hey, great video Vil. Love the comparison between the platforms. Very detailed and informative. We have something to make these platforms better and would love to hear your feedback. Can I invite you to a 15-min Zoom chat, if so what email should I use?
Great tools! Any thoughts on CourseFunnels? It is very easy to use as I am a beginner. It supports various languages & has lots of free plugins for sale. Is anyone else using the same?
That requires you to integrate it with your own website and have your own hosting. So, if as you said you are a beginner and want the most simple solution, then the platforms I discussed in the video are definitely much easier to use
I don’t think there is any specific difference that would fit those demographics better than other. I think either of the options j talk about should work fine 🙂
Again.. nice video and ... Which can be the best platform for me that I have this needed: • Quiz/Test/Exam and automatic result; • Gamifying* (not fundamental, I can do without it); • Automatic Certificate (when you finish course o pass the exam); • Possibility to sell/rent a Full Course or sell/rent single video (pay-per-view) of the same Course; • Affiliate Program Included* (not fundamental, I can do without it); • Cost from 50 to 90$ max a month; Thanks for your suggest!
Great video but can't stand the background music. I wish youtube content creators would quit the annoying as hell background music makes me skip ahead get the info or not watch it.
Confirming I cannot watch this video. I hate hypnotic music research what music actually can do. Affect brain waves, probably makes people stupid hence well look around. Hypnotized techno dummies.
I was considering that, especially because I have been using Wordpress for years, but I found it’s not the same user experience and you still need to get hosting for videos and whatnot, so it’s not even as crazy of a price difference. Personally, I feel like I can get more sales if I use these platforms, so it makes sense to invest a little bit of money..
Any other opinions on what is the best online course platform? 🙂
Yes!!! My course will be purely B2B, and very high value content. Over 25 years I have made businesses hundreds of millions in profitable revenue. Which platform is best to reach business users, e.g. product management, finance, marketing and sales leaders inside of small to medium businesses?
So I far i have been testing Thinkific. Seems good
What do you think of skill share?
What about kajabi? They look pricy but built in landing pages n funnels is appealing.
Thoughts on kajabi?

Subscribed. as I am about to set up my language school and career school and school for energy enhancement.
Thank you! Going to see if you made a video for landing pages!
Thanks for watching! Will make videos for landing pages next month 🙂

Thank you, you're amazing for sharing this so generously, may you be blessed.
Thank you for this video! Really great info!
Please explain and rate Landing Pages! THANKS
Yes! would love this
Unbounce
Hello, Thank you for the info its very helpful. I just want to ask a few questions as I am researching the options out there.
1. Can these choices can be used / embedded on an existing website or are they standalone.
2. Are they more for one to one teaching or can they be an 'online school' with many tutors / options/ course?
3. Does the interface for these platforms allow for teacher profiles and payments etc
Did you ever find the answers to your questions? :-) I would like to know as well!
really nicely explained, many thanks!
Thanks so much for the video. Did you ever make a video on a landing page? If not, what site do you recommend for creating one you find increases sales
This was awesome 😊 thank you! Never heard of Podia
Thinkific works best, do you need help with your course?
Yes, please! Would you make a video on landing page too? I’m working on it right now and a video would be super helpful.
This was very informative. Thank you
Hi thank you for your video...can I pls ask what did you use to make your own video? What software? I would like to make similar videos but need advise? 😊
Super clear and halepful video, thanks man!!!
Great advice! Can my landing page collect emails of interested students while I’m still working on finishing my course?
Very helpful, thank you. I've started setting up a course on the Thinkific free plan but may change to Podia given your information here as I've not launched yet. More on page builders would be good. Thanks again.

Definitely do a Landing Page video. This was a great video and helped me decide!

@@paganinix2845 got it, thx, good to hear. No message received on FB yet, have a good weekend !
My concern with Podia was limits on what can put on a lesson. One cannot include video along with text in one lesson.
Great value vil ..Thank you
Do you have any reviews on ‘disciple’ and ‘gurucan’? Cheers
Thanks for this video Vil!
Thanks for watching! 🙂
I want to go with Podia, but the fact that they are not scorm compliant is a deal breaker for me.
What about Udemy and Distance Learning Place? I've used these previously
Thank you so much!

So, which one did you lean to? I work on Thinkific (cuz I barely have any time to develop detailed design...)
@@sergiosanchezpadilla6941 I actually found a third option: Maatos. It's in Dutch, luckily I am a native. How are you liking thinkific?
No app for Podia..how is Podia's mobile browser layout?
This is some great stuff as always, really appreciate it! Great Value. Finally, something that will help! Teachable is a great tool.
Can you upgrade a plan on thinkific if you grow your online needs?
Yes
hey mate, did you ever made any course on thinkific?
Hey, yes. Why?
Yes please. What are page builders?
Can you upgrade if you start out with the free option with thinkific?
hi ! What difference between teachable and udemy? if I post a online course on teachable seem like to harder to find out.
Teachable offers abilities to create a more customized course than Udemy, custom landing pages with their editor even though it can be further enhanced with some technical implementations. Teachable give you power!

Please is there an online course platform that pays out through visa or mastercard?
Honestly, I am not sure... I just get payments sent to my stripe account and then have stripe connected to my bank/banks cards
Thanks for excellent video

We have something to make these platforms better and would love to hear your feedback. Can I invite you to a 15-min Zoom chat, if so what email should I use?

Can you tell which is the best and free platform to teach online?
Podia has no fees 👍
Great tools! Any thoughts on CourseFunnels? It is very easy to use as I am a beginner. It supports various languages & has lots of free plugins for sale. Is anyone else using the same?

Come on dude, this video is outdated, at least admit it, or make a new one.... it's a 15month old video
Do your own website and dont pay for these guys... They eat your wallet

Good advice
but does these platforms not help you get traffic on your page?
Thinkific best free, best basic, Thinkific includes affiliate at basic.
