About this listen
You build an online course, launch it, and only a few people sign up. For solopreneurs trying to create an online course that grows their business, low enrollment feels like failure. But it doesn't have to be.
In this episode, I share exactly what happened when my course launch got only one paid student, and the course creation strategies I used to turn it into a sold-out relaunch just months later.
You'll learn:
- Why low enrollment only matters for certain types of courses
- How to cap your enrollment so selling feels easier and scarcity stays honest
- The "scholarship" strategy that filled my seats without destroying my pricing
- Why slashing your price after a bad course launch backfires long-term
- The one thing I asked from free students that made my relaunch completely different
A disappointing first launch isn't the end. It's an investment in testimonials, refined content, and a better second launch - but only if you play it right.
I'm Dr. Curtis Satterfield. I've been an educator and course designer for 17 years, and I help solopreneurs build courses that actually transform their students and grow their business.
