    The Business Of Selling Courses

    While helping people on forums, I came across two questions. 1) Do you think one should stick to one niche of forums when helping people, or also help people in other niches where you think you could be useful? 2) Is there such a thing as giving away "too much value"? Thank you!

    How ditching self help has improved my life.

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Well, I think the key to self-improvement books in general is applying the advice in them. It's tempting to read book after book and get that dopamine rush, when what actually would have helped you would have been to pick a couple of good books and apply the advice in them we find reasonable...

    @Andy Black wow, thank you. I think the biggest mistake I‘ve been making until now is focusing too much on my content itself rather than interacting with the customer and producing the content that they want to see.

    The Business Of Selling Courses

    at the moment it can only be a side project, unfortunately. School is draining most of my time. I plan to be able to get a side business running as soon as I‘m out of school (about 1.5 years to go) and then take it on full time and grow it.

    The Business Of Selling Courses

    few things are 'unique'. This strategy is called inbound marketing, and is performed in basically all industries you can think of, not just programming :) Can definitely agree with you on the current stance of the traditional education system, but that has been said enough times I guess...

    The Business Of Selling Courses

    Yep, exactly. But before that, of course has to be the long grind of building up the audience you can ask (right?), which, like I said, I‘d be happy to do. I really have no experience with facebook ads, never used them before. Do you mean just driving people to the survey? In which would they...

    The Business Of Selling Courses

    Hey you all, I created this thead because I am a bit stuck in the thought process and I think many people are in the same boat as me (Sorry If there is a similar thread already, but I haven‘t found it.) Two cents about me: I‘ve identified a niche in the programming industry that is not too...

    Ask Me Anything About SaaS ( I'm building my 7th )

    GOLD! HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    @eliquid while doing your exercise, I've come across a question. How do I know if something can or can't be modeled for SaaS? Or better to say, if it's well suited in a SaaS model or would be better in a, let's say, content model? Do you have specific criteria or use your gut feeling/what...

    Wow, thanks for providing such actionable steps! I‘ll definitely follow up on them. Had no idea that PHP was once called Fl, either... It‘s interesting to hear about different backgrounds. How did you get into marketing? Was it also an interest of yours? I am also working on building my...

    GOLD! HOT! SAAS / APPS 
    @eliquid Sorry if the question has already been asked somewhere in the thread (At least I haven't seen it), but what tips can you give on coming up with good niches where you can improve a product? You said earlier in the thread to stay in your area of competence helps a lot. However, I find...

    Finding a niche to serve

    Hey everybody, I am a self-taugt software developer and new to the forum. One of my main struggles is finding the right niche to target. Reading through previous posts, I took away that it‘s a good idea to create a product in a niche you are familiar with. But what are some ways of finding...

    Hey @eliquid thanks for providing so much value, really appreciate it! I have another question on marketing. Earlier in the thread you talked about establishing yourself as an expert in the niche you work in. What do you think of the strategy of starting a blog/youtube channel, and producing...
