My online course - results are below expected

[IBuildApps]

Hi, I've been reading this forum for the last 3 years.
I followed the advice from:
- @MJ DeMarco to build businesses based on problems and needs instead of our ideas,
- @Andy Black to just help people,
- @eliquid to do a business in the domain that I know.

It was very helpful for me and I started to focus on the following facts:
- my main domain is software development (I'm a full-stack dev with nice skills)
- I'm a member of some groups for software devs on FB and every day people ask about "how to start learning programming" and "how to become a professional dev" - these are their real problems.
- I know the answers to those questions and sometimes I answered them and got a lot of likes (so I was helping).

As a result, I've started creating the online course for people who want to become software dev (something like a roadmap with extra advice based on my experience). I describe my process here: EXECUTION - QUESTION - My next iteration in Act, Assess, Adjust of my business road.

I didn't have any audience. I just answered in those groups.
I prepared a landing page with a presale and got 4 customers for 30% of the final price.
Next, I created half the course and started to sell for 50% of the final price (0 customers despite the advertising on FB).
Nom I'm working on the second half of the course to finish it but I'm wondering what is wrong with my actions. 0 customers in the second round of sales?

Additionally, I have a lead magnet (free, short e-books) and collected 50 emails. Nobody from this group has bought.
What is the problem? People don't trust me?

Maybe should I create a TikTok and Instagram account and upload short, free, valuable content?

And my biggest question - where is the moment when I should decide that this course doesn't make sense and the next step is looking for other business? I have a lot of ideas to help those people, they ask every day for similar things and my course answers those questions, but nobody buys it.

Best regards.
