MBA1310 Q&A Wednesday: Can I sell my course without being an overhyped sales personality?
17 Jul 2019
Nobody likes a huckster.There’s an unfortunate trend in the online course business: hype-heavy “personalities” trying to seduce their audience with flair instead of substance. In this week’s Q&A, one listener wants to know how to sell a course on its merits, with a marketing strategy that’s more genuine, more serious, and more respectable.We agree with our listener.
