Creating a great product is only the first step. The next challenge is getting it into more people’s hands—especially if you don’t want to be the one running a warehouse or managing bulk orders. Rayna from Toronto is in this position. She’s developed a high-quality set of early literacy worksheets and curriculum tools, and they’ve already gained traction with educators. But she doesn’t want to scale the business solo—so she’s exploring licensing as a path to greater reach and more sustainable income. Let’s look at how licensing works for educational content, and what it takes to get a company to say yes."Over the past couple of years, I’ve created a set of branded educational worksheets and curriculum materials for early literacy. I initially designed them for a tutoring program I ran, but they’ve taken on a life of their own—teachers and homeschoolers have started requesting them, and I’ve sold a few digital downloads online. I’d love to reach a wider audience, but I don’t have the time or resources to handle mass distribution or print production. I’ve been thinking about licensing the materials to an educational publisher or learning platform, but I have no idea how to approach that. How does licensing actually work for something like this, and what would make a company want to pick up my materials?"Listen to today's episode to learn more... Yours in the revolution,
