I did something bad last week... I missed a deadline. I promised to deliver my course, [Build A Beloved Membership](=), to presale students by November 1st...and I failed to do so. We had an Office Hours session inside [The Lab](=) and I shared with members that I was having a lot of stress, anxiety, and even sadness because I knew I was going to miss my deadline. My wife can tell you â I haven't been myself for the last couple weeks as I finished this thing up. So, to take some pressure off of myself, I emailed all the presale students and let them know that I needed another couple of weeks. It was a scary, embarrassing thing to do... ...and they were all OK with it. Not a single angry email. Now, I did also offer a couple free Office Hours sessions with me as an apology â but everyone was super understanding. Sometimes we stress ourselves out over nothing. But I'm proud (and so happy) to say that the course is done! I finished recording, editing, and uploading the final videos last night. This is definitely the best course I've ever created â I think it's an absolute no-brainer that anyone building a membership community should purchase this course to ensure they're building a special experience and a profitable product. But beyond the course itself, I'm proud of the process I used to get this thing built! So, this week, I'll be sharing with you the full step-by-step process that I followed to bring this idea from concept to reality. But first... â â [Sponsor Image](=) PRESENTED BY QUILLBOT

How I build online courses On September 17, I launched the presale page for my newest course, [Build A Beloved Membership](=). Yesterday (nearly two months later) I finished building that course.

So this week, I'm sharing the full process I followed so that you can follow or adapt it to build your own online course. [Keep reading (9 min) â]() â â CLICK WORTHY ð¥
