"What if someone already made the course I wanted to create?"

[image] Hey there, Quick reminder -- I've got a brand new, free online workshop I'm teaching this week, all about growing your audience and online income. [Click here to get the details + register!]( Now. It's no secret that I love online courses. LOVE them. I love creating them. Teaching them. Teaching other people how to create, teach, and launch them. You get it. Why? Because online courses have been one of the biggest factors in turning my fledgling blog into a multimillion dollar business in just a few years. And I've seen so many of my students who are having amazing success with their own online courses, too. But I always get a lot of questions from people who are thinking about taking a stab at creating an one course. One of the biggest questions? "What if someone already made the course I wanted to create?" Or, another version of that question: "My topic has already been done by someone else. Why should I make another course?" My response to that is -- AWESOME! That's good news! Seriously! If other people are selling courses on your topic, that means that people are buying courses on that topic, too. Which means -- you're in the enviable position of knowing there's an audience willing to spend money on your topic before you even start creating your course. Product validation, yo. And here's another reason why you should still create a course, even if your topic has been done a gajillion times... You have a unique perspective and voice (yes, even if you don't think you do). You come from a different place and with different experiences, from the other people in your industry. Think of it this way… If you like cooking, would you only buy ONE cookbook in your life? If you want to start a business, would you get advice from just ONE business expert over the years? If you wanted to get out of debt, would you read just ONE article about how to do so? No way! As humans (and especially in this day and age), we want to get multiple perspectives on every topic we’re passionate about. And one of the big deciding factors when someone buys a program is the PERSON behind the program. Do they feel like they can connect with you? Do they resonate with your story? Do they like your style of sharing your knowledge and wisdom? If yes, then they’re likely to want to follow you, even if there are other people out there talking about the same topics. Are you starting to see why it completely DOESN’T MATTER if someone else has already create the course (or blog, or service, or fill-in-the-blank) that you wanted to? Are you understanding how much value YOU already bring to the table (and to your audience)? Well, I reaaaally want to make things easy for you, which is why I created a brand new, *free* online workshop. :) It’s called...
