When working with clients to create a course, we start with the Minimum Viable Product (mvp), or in this case, a Minimum Viable Course. Good old Wikipedia tells me “A minimum viable product is a version of a product with just enough features to satisfy early customers and provide feedback for future product development. “ I […]
I spend a lot (no really, A LOT) of time answering the question, “I want to make an online course/membership site. Which plugin should I use?” And while there is no easy answer, and your choice will depend on a whole heap of variables, I do have some favorites. Today we are talking all about LearnDash
It’s taken me a while to talk about this. Mostly, because I don’t want to seem like an ambulance chaser. Lots of people are talking about moving their classes and group programs online right now… I build online courses… you can see what I mean. But, for those of you who are thinking about starting
Most of the clients I work with already have A LOT of content, and I’m sure you’re the same. Blog posts, long-form social media posts, eBooks, videos, all those files you’ve drafted and never done anything with. You’ve got content coming out of your ears.

Well we’ve reached the end of 2019, and the start of the new decade, and I have to say I’m feeling incredibly grateful. Grateful to you. For the wonderful people out there who read these posts, who join my groups, who hire my services, who trust me and put faith in me. Here’s why: The
Maybe you are taking a big chunk of time off this year, or maybe you are pushing through and trying to get stuff done along the way (this is me… this year I’ve got some big things to tick off across Christmas and the holidays still). Either way, Christmas is one of those times of
Phew… it’s been a big year. And from chatting to others and looking around my news feed, it seems I’m not the only one to feel that way. It was a year of ups and downs (aren’t they all), a year which pushed boundaries, and a year which showed us all that we were ready to
