Online courses have huge earning potential but they can also be massive wastes of time.

In this episode, we’re going to take a look at evergreen funnels and live launching. These are two different marketing strategies you can use to sell courses online. Both evergreen funnels and live launching can effectively be used to sell hundreds of thousands (even millions!) of dollars for an online course. And to this day, I continue to use both in my business.However, they’re much more effective–and much more profitable–when you use the right one for your situation. And that means choosing the right strategy both for your product and for your personal goals.Listen to the full episode to hear:How live launching uses discounts or limited availability to incentivize buyersThe potential downsides of using limited-time offers on your productsHow to use evergreen funnels to combine live launching and steady sellingWhy I still use both strategies in my businessWhy evergreen funnels aren’t always effective at getting sales for new businessesLearn more about Gillian:100K Mastermindwww.gillianperkins.com

Welcome to the first episode of The 100K Method, a limited podcast series about how to strategically scale your online course to six-figure success.I created this series because when I started my online business, I was broke, living paycheck-to-paycheck, and my biggest goal was to create a consistent stream of passive income, but I had a really hard time figuring out how. Lots of people were talking about passive income, but what they shared was vague, theoretical, and frequently overhyped. What I wanted and needed was practical, hands-on advice from someone who had successfully done what I wanted to do.After a lot of research, I determined that digital courses and membership sites were going to be the best way to reach my passive income goals. There are certainly other options out there, but most either require a lot of money upfront or simply don’t have a very high earning potential.Online courses and memberships, on the other hand, can be put together with only a small budget and marketed strategically to turn into six- or even seven-figure streams of passive income. And that was exactly what I was looking for!I’ll share the story of how I built my first $100K funnel in the next episode (and we’ll also look at the 100K method itself later in this series), but, in this episode, I’d like to start our conversation by examining the basic strategy of using evergreen sales funnels to passively sell online courses. We’ll also take a look at one of my 100K funnels in action, so you can see how this strategy works in the real world.
