0:00
are you thinking about starting your own
0:02
Online Academy then think about using
0:06
the free trial from fific to begin with
0:10
and we will see how easy it is to begin
0:12
with thinkific so first of all use the
0:16
description or on top of this video to
0:19
go to their website and you can have a
0:21
30-day free trial with them simply enter
0:26
address uh for example this is my email
0:30
then click on start your 30-day
0:33
trial the next step is to sign up for
0:36
example with Google or to enter more
0:38
details so this depends on uh what you
0:40
want to use enter your company size for
0:43
example here it's only me and then they
0:45
will ask for um debit card credit card
0:48
to authorize you to uh start with a free
0:53
trial so here I enter my card details
0:56
and now I unlock the claim your offer
0:59
button and I can claim my 30 days free
1:03
trial it's simple and pretty
1:07
fast and uh once this step is done so
1:15
here we have uh I have claimed my
1:17
promotion and it is done I have a 30day
1:24
trial uh so start by undering what best
1:28
describes you are you a coach working
1:30
with clients with IND clients and giving
1:32
them personalized kind of training and
1:36
following them uh one each individual
1:39
separately are you a trainer or
1:42
educator in which case you might have
1:44
one or several classes with a regular
1:47
group of people that is joining your uh
1:50
your courses or your events you can be a
1:52
content creator for example this is my
1:54
case and I mostly work on social media
1:57
you can also be a business owner uh this
2:00
also for example my case if education is
2:04
not the core focus of your business or
2:07
none of the above if you are in a
2:08
different situation so in my case I am a
2:11
Content uh Creator uh so I will start
2:14
with content creator what is the size of
2:17
your following your email list so for
2:18
example in my case I have um let's say
2:22
between 10 and 10,000 people following
2:24
me and tell a little about your business
2:26
to start faster so how much money have
2:30
you earned selling your knowledge in the
2:31
past year in my case it's between $1,000
2:36
$50,000 okay now let's dive in what I
2:38
would like to create first we can create
2:40
digital downloads such as offering
2:42
ebooks guides or templates meaning
2:46
content that the students will uh simply
2:49
read without much interaction with the
2:52
course they will for example download
2:53
the ebook and read it on the beach or
2:55
whatever and there will be no or little
2:57
interaction can be a course so in case
3:00
of a course you will have several uh
3:02
videos you will have quizzes you will
3:05
exercises uh eventually to make your
3:08
course more tailored to your students
3:11
you can also have coaching sessions so
3:14
in that case your clients will book time
3:17
slots with you which is again a very
3:19
different type of uh of uh online
3:23
teaching and fin finally webinar which
3:26
is also kind of similar with coaching
3:28
but on webinar you can have a lot lot of
3:30
attendees at the same time so you are
3:31
coaching a lot of people at
3:34
once uh in our case we just want to
3:36
transform our expertise into a course uh
3:39
then you can choose if it will be free
3:41
or paid so here it totally depends on
3:44
you personally I recommend to have a mix
3:47
of both to have a bit of three products
3:50
um so people can learn a little about
3:53
you and then um have paid products to go
3:56
further into the knowledge that you are
4:00
offering for example we'll start with a
4:01
free product now describe your audience
4:05
and what they learn so for example my uh
4:08
audience uh my audience uh learns about
4:13
uh sharing their knowledge online so
4:17
whatever you know about it can be
4:19
gardening it can be yoga it can be
4:21
mechanic can be anything you can create
4:24
your uh Online Academy uh sell your
4:28
courses teach students
4:30
um share your knowledge and hopefully
4:32
make uh some earnings out of it now we
4:36
can create our our first uh course uh we
4:41
will have a draft being prepared by
4:45
thinky um artificial intelligence they
4:48
are adding the final touches and here
4:50
they are drafting for me my course and
4:53
here we go I have my course and I can
4:56
review landing pages so here we'll have
4:58
um quick View at the interface and in
5:02
future videos we will see more in detail
5:04
how to set up your course uh and set it
5:06
up for Success you also have some uh
5:10
simple help but you will see on your
5:11
first login which is our case now so we
5:14
can review our personalized landing page
5:16
uh so each product includes a sales page
5:18
and email marketing tools to promote the
5:20
course so this is where thinkific has
5:23
added value compared to other platforms
5:25
it helps you to promote and you don't
5:27
need any you don't need any preview
5:30
experience everything is very simple to
5:32
understand the interface is
5:34
self-explanatory you just have to follow
5:36
the steps on uh displayed online so next
5:41
we can manage curriculum and add
5:43
content depending of course on your uh
5:46
on your Academy content you can add
5:50
various courses for example first free
5:53
course to bring uh new students to your
5:55
Academy then a first course for
5:58
beginners to introdu to the skills you
6:01
are sharing uh Advanced cost for people
6:03
that already took the beginner's course
6:05
and the introductionary course and for
6:08
example finally um an expert course that
6:12
will lead people to have a certification
6:15
for example and to be able to uh share
6:18
by themselves the skills that they uh
6:20
they got from you so you use them in
6:22
real life if for example if you are
6:24
teaching yoga and you want people to
6:26
become yoga teachers at the end of your
6:28
course they might be able to open their
6:30
own yoga class this is just an example
6:33
of course it depends of uh your own
6:35
content and in curriculum you can uh add
6:39
uh chapters with individual
6:42
lessons and here we have the very simple
6:44
interface we will go in detail in
6:46
another video but uh here you can just
6:49
with a few button change the style of
6:51
your course so as you can see it's all
6:54
pointing click there is no need to know
6:57
any technical skill related to web to
7:02
internet you don't need to know HTML CS
7:04
these Technologies all you need to do is
7:06
to know how to click and to have a skill
7:08
to share which everyone has and needs
7:13
the proper platform to share it with
7:15
their audience so here it's how you can
7:18
start with the thinkific free trial 30
7:21
days again for free you don't need to
7:23
advance any money and uh once um you are
7:27
in you can uh you can create your Online
7:30
Academy start Shing your skills and
7:32
we'll see in other videos how to do that
7:35
properly but here you go you have your
7:37
uh your skill prer and um here you have
7:40
a preview button so anytime you do any
7:42
change you can just click this and see
7:46
how it looks like for end users for
7:49
students and potential students and
7:51
students so this is what they will see
7:53
right now there is nothing because I put
7:55
nothing but if you add something for
7:58
example this has been generated by AI uh
8:01
so a welcome section creating and Eng
8:03
engaging course chapter marketing your
8:05
Coursey for Success building a community
8:08
this has all been been done by Ai and it
8:10
can be done by AI for you to share your
8:13
knowledge make money of it and uh teach
8:16
your skills online so let's see in
8:18
another video how to go deeper in
8:21
