Course Description
Are you a Coach or Consultant who would like to leverage your time and create an online course that enables you to reach more people and earn more money than you can working with clients one-on-one or in small groups?
If you have a process you use in your Coaching or Consulting business--what I call a Signature Program--you're in an ideal position to leverage that process into an online course.
Hi, my name is Debbie LaChusa, and I started my first business as a marketing consultant back in 1998. After running that business for a few years, and learning what it takes to successfully build and market a business, I started helping other coaches and consultants build and market their businesses.
I created a Signature Program, a series of steps and processes that I took my private clients through, and over the years I perfected that process so it worked with each and every client (assuming they did the work, or course).
In 2013, I was recruited by Udemy to teach online, and I created my first online course, based on that proven Signature Program.
That course was an immediate success (even though it was my first online course) and it continues to outsell most of my other online courses to this day!
Of the additional 21 online courses I've created, my other top sellers are ALL based on my Signature Program.
That's how I know the most effective online course strategy for Coaches and Consultants, is to teach what they already know and do in their Coaching or Consulting Business.
In this course, I'm going to share with you the exact same process I use to create and market my online courses so you'll know exactly how to transform your Signature Program into a successful online course.
In this course I'm going to teach you how to:
Know what to teach, especially if you want to be successful and get great course reviews
Identify your perfect students so you can market effectively to them
Create Learning Objectives for your online course so your students understand exactly what they'll learn
Name your course so it can be easily found by students looking to learn what you teach
Create a Course Outline that will help facilitate the entire process of creating your online course
Record Course Videos that look and sound professional, and enable you to do virtual coaching or consulting
Edit Videos using iMovie video editing software (if you use a different program, the process will be similar)
Web Optimize your course videos (using free software) so they upload quickly
Choose the best Hosting Platform for you and your online teaching objectives
Upload and Setup your online course videos and supplemental materials (e.g. worksheets, exercises, handouts)
Market and Launch your course to start enrolling students immediately
Identify additional online course topics if you'd like to create more than one online course
You'll Also Learn:
What types of Exercises, Worksheets and Handouts you should include and why
The 6 different Video Formats you can use in your course so you can choose the ones that suit you best
Video guidelines to ensure your videos look and sound professional
What Recording and Editing Software and Equipment you'll need, and free resources you can use
The 2 Pricing Strategies for online courses, so you can choose the one that suits you best
This course includes Worksheets and Handouts--including a 28-page Marketing Your Online Course handout with how-to-instructions and examples of course marketing I've used to successfully market my online courses--to supplement your learning and make it easy for you to launch and market your online course.
I've been teaching on Udemy since 2013. I'm a Udemy bestseller. I've also created many different types of online courses (format and content) over the past 9 years. I even ran my own online course academy for 4 years. Through all that experience, I've learned what works best for teaching Coaching or Consulting content. And that's what I will teach you in this course.
I invite you to watch the Free Preview Videos so you can see my teaching style and learn more about what you'll learn in this course.
And if what you see and hear resonates, I encourage you to enroll today and learn how you can create an online course based on your Signature Program or Proven Coaching or Consulting Process.

Great learnings ! Nicely put together engaging course . I like the simlicity and honesty in communicaton, along with the elegance. Thank you so much ma'am !
By Sandra Jones on 5/30/2023
I have taken courses like this, and I have the qualifications and experience - I just haven't structured a program and leapt into full-time business ownership! This program is laid out very well and the instructor is very personable - she understands the value of time, optimizes the time spent, and step-by-step, makes it feasible to construct and implement a program!

I'm very glad and grateful that I chose this course on course creation among the dozens of others offered here at Udemy. The content is very clear and helpful, and the teacher is excellent. Not only is she a skilled communicator, she's a really genuine person. I look forward to taking her other courses, too!

Debbie is an exceptional instructor. She has the ability to teach complex information in a way that is easily understandable. I highly recommend this course!
By Gerrith Will Lassen on 10/18/2022
I never rate a course so early in the process, but here I experience we are talking the ‘same language’ even we are in two totaly different countries. We are on the same page and I experience, here I get everything I was looking for. A real competent Trainer and coach and consultant gives me everything I need right now. Just this is worth 5 stars.
By Carolyn Savage on 9/27/2022
Thank you soooooo much. It took me a few weeks to complete this course. I'm glad I did. I am working on the steps to transform my signature program into a course. It's not easy, but with the help of this course, I got started and it will be finished soon.

I find it very helpful as I already have a weight loss course I launched on Zoom that really was bare bones. I did the course live in five sessions based on my book, Keto for Life, 28 Day Fat-Fueled Approach to Weight Loss. I have never incorporated videos, but I know it would make a hugh difference. Just a little overwhelming.
By Sheila Decora on 6/18/2022
I have taken other coaching courses but I discovered that she is so relatable, that I can relax and feel very comfortable. She hits the basics and I can simply take in what she has to say without being afraid of missing something important.
By Leonard.Brown on 6/18/2022
I've watched the videos, taken notes and gathered downloads on a first-time run-through. I shall re-watch and actively do the work over the next few weeks. I opted for this course because I have previously bought Debbie LaChusa's courses - and I find her style of instruction, experienced, helpful and thorough.
