You’ve probably heard the advice to create a free report to give away in exchange for people’s contact information. That’s excellent advice, especially for online course creators. Aside from helping you attract “hot” prospects who are interested in your course, a free report comes in handy for many other purposes: Give it as a bonus […]
Two months ago, I faced bankruptcy. Creative bankruptcy, that is. My creative juices became stagnant. My hands were resting on the keyboard, but my fingers could not move. I looked for inspiration everywhere. I binged on TV shows on Netflix, read books, devoured blogs about copywriting, asked my copywriter friends for advice. Nothing seemed to
Geometry was a tough course for me. It was all those “proofs” and trying to remember the proofs that came before that could then be used for the next one. One of the recurring phrases was “If this, then that.” For example, IF two parallel lines are intersected by another line, THEN the opposite angles are
So you want to build your email list… but you absolutely don’t want to do any guest blogging. I get it. Maybe you’re one of those people who hate to write. (I don’t understand how anybody could hate writing, but I won’t judge you.) Maybe you’re a terrible writer. And you can’t afford to hire

Teachers and friends couldn’t understand what the kids said. So I spent an entire summer learning how to create and appear in
Higher education has hardly evolved in the past few years. There are still giant auditoriums where professors listen to themselves speak for 3 hours. There are still instructors who read from the book and quietly mumble “Any questions?” before quickly moving on. There are still educators who blame the student if they’re failing. It sucks
You know that saying, “I know just enough to be dangerous?” That describes my familiarity with WordPress. I’ve had a serviceable WordPress website for half a dozen years. I built and periodically tweaked it on my own, but it’s neither fancy nor custom. I know practically nothing about HTML, CSS, or PHP. So I knew testing
When the prolific science fiction writer Harlan Ellison was asked to contribute an interview for a film project on the making of the TV show Babylon 5, he said, “Absolutely!” He just had one small stipulation: “All you’ve got to do is pay me.” “What?” the young woman on the other end of the call
