Stop Creating Courses: Start Making These Lucrative Little Tools Instead…

We don’t care about your drill bit. We just want the holes…

Course-creation is brutal (if you do it right). If you care about the people you serve and you really want to get them some serious results, building a full course takes a lot of blood and sweat.

Problem is, although we all want to solve our problems and learn new things, we want those solutions faster than your course delivers.

  • We want bite-sized.
  • We want quicker fixes.
  • We want it now, like a little, spoiled brat.

So, instead of killing yourself over trying to build your next epic course (only to find that no one wants it), start focusing on tools instead.

Tools carry more value in a smaller space. A book has a value ceiling even if the information inside is priceless.

…not so much with a tool

Think about the value of a 3D Printer versus a course on how to use a 3D printer. With the actual tool you can immediately feel the value added to your life. You can imagine all the things you will make. And if you used this printer a lot, the value could be priceless.
