He taught me that a course&#x2013;in its most basic form&#x2013;is just a series of video recordings of your computer screen. Once I dabbled in screen recordings, my confidence in course creation grew.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What%E2%80%99s_your_online_course_like\"><\/span>What&#8217;s your online course like?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">My typical lecture is a recording of me talking over a Canva presentation, with or without my webcam. Some lectures are&#xA0; &#x201C;talking head&#x201D; recordings of me. I also offer quizzes, downloadable content such as Excel or Word templates, and text-based lectures. Lately I&#x2019;ve invested more in video editing such as adding b-roll, text, sound effects, and music.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_long_did_it_take_you_to_create_your_course\"><\/span>How long did it take you to create your course?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A course can definitely be created in a month.

I then record myself talking over that slideshow. I prefer to completely finish one little chunk of the course at a time&#x2013;even if it&#x2019;s just a 5-minute video recording. I build the course piece-by-piece: a completed video, a slideshow for a lecture, a recording of me setting up an ad campaign, or a video of me talking.<\/p>\n<p>My courses are very long, but I don&#x2019;t get overwhelmed with thinking about the grand plan. I just focus on completing one component at a time. Later, I&#x2019;ll reorder, edit, or even delete lectures as I see what students do or do not engage with. Feedback from students is also very helpful.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I don&#x2019;t advise starting with the introduction to the course because you&#x2019;ll end up trying to give a general overview for something that isn&#x2019;t done yet. The content will evolve over time. I suggest starting with the &#x201C;meat&#x201D; of the course where you dive right into some juicy, helpful content.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37088\" src=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dekker-Fraser-3.png\" alt=\"Dekker Fraser's site\" width=\"1000\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dekker-Fraser-3.png 1000w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dekker-Fraser-3-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/coursemethod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Dekker-Fraser-3-768x393.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tell_us_a_little_about_the_process_of_launching_your_course_and_getting_your_first_sales\"><\/span>Tell us a little about the process of launching your course and getting your first sale(s).<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I distribute free coupons through channels such as Facebook groups.

I have a live-in maid and a very comfortable lifestyle with lots of luxury goods. The online course business is very profitable.
