I almost didn’t launch my first course. I was convinced I wasn’t “ready.” My audience was too small, my email list wasn’t big enough, and all the experts said I needed more people before I could expect to make sales.
But here’s what actually happened—and why I was completely wrong.
If you’ve ever put off launching your course because you felt like you didn’t have enough followers, email subscribers, or engagement, this episode is for you. I’m breaking down the biggest misconception about audience size, what actually drives course sales, and why waiting for the “right” conditions might be holding you back.
In This Episode, You'll Learn:
✔️ Why audience engagement matters more than audience size
✔️ The surprising truth about my first course launch—and what I wish I had known
✔️ The mistake I made when advising another course creator (and why I regret it)
✔️ What actually converts casual followers into paying students
✔️ Why chasing big numbers doesn’t always mean more sales
✔️ How to start building a community that is eager to buy—no matter how small your audience is
If you’ve been holding off on launching because you feel like you’re not “big enough” yet, this episode might just change the way you see your business.
🎧 Tune in now and let’s talk about why your course is ready—even if your audience isn’t as big as you think it should be.
