Consistent 5-figure months with course creator Jacques Hopkins (S5E160)

There’s an online course for just about everything these days. And for good reason. More people are learning online than ever, and online courses can be wildly profitable if you play your cards right.

Jacques Hopkins is a bit of an anomaly in the online course world because he took a subject he’d never taught before (piano) and turned it into an extremely successful course that allowed him to quit his 9 to 5.  And now, it has even led him to begin teaching others how he put his own course together.

In this episode, we’ll cover:

  • How Jacques grew his online course by implementing funnels
  • How to work on two different brands simultaneously
  • How to deal with (and plan for dealing with!) haters
  • The value of having a trusted legal advisor you can call whenever a question or problem arises

BONUS: If you’re starting something new, or this episode has spotlighted areas of your business that have you worried, now is a great time to make sure your business is in good shape legally. Download our free legal checklist below to make sure your business has a strong legal foundation!
