TRYH 176: Harnessing Community for Course Success with Angie Kratzer

Unlock the secrets of digital course creation with our returning guest, Angie Kratzer, as she shares invaluable strategies for teacherpreneurs looking to expand their income streams. Discover practical tips from her latest compilation on Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT) and understand the crucial role of community engagement and accountability partners in achieving success. We'll also take a fun trip down memory lane, reminiscing and the camaraderie that fuels our creative spirits.

Reflecting on my September 2020 launch of the Digital Course Academy (DCA), we navigate through the challenges and unexpected benefits of joining the program during the pandemic. Learn how weekly meetings with a small support group became a lifeline and provided the inspiration needed to complete and launch courses amidst global uncertainty. These connections have transcended the program, offering ongoing support and highlighting the indispensable value of community and mentorship in reaching your business aspirations.

Angie and I dive into validating course ideas before creation, a game-changing approach championed by Amy Porterfield from DCA. Transitioning from spontaneous course creation to a strategy-driven method ensures we meet existing demands rather than trying to generate them. We'll share our experiences, discuss the importance of understanding your audience's needs, and reveal the power of strategic email marketing. Plus, enjoy our personal anecdotes about travel dreams, childhood TV shows, and the deep emotional impact of having a supportive community around you. Join us for a rich blend of practical advice and heartwarming reflections designed to inspire and guide your course creation journey.
