What It's About
Today's caller wants to launch a course through text messaging. What should they know?
Notes from Chris
Episode 1687
In case you missed it, I recently launched a new course called Idea to Income that’s delivered entirely through SMS, also known as text messaging … and apparently it’s got some of my listeners thinking. Good for you! I want to show you how to do things like this so that you can do them as well. How can you put together a text messaging course? How should it be structured and can you manage it technically? There are a few different aspects to this. I’ll try to be concise and give you the most important points."I saw that you're making a course that delivers daily lessons through text messaging. That looks cool, and I'd like to try doing it myself. My idea is to teach parenting tips through a series of audio messages and prompts. How did you put yours together, and what did you learn along the way?"Listen to today's episode to learn more...
