Today I am delighted to welcome Dave Espino to the Optimistic Entrepreneur Podcast.  We are talking about how to list your online course on Amazon!

Today…is a GAME CHANGER

We all know that Amazon Video Direct has not been a great success for Online Course creators.  Its just to complicated and fiddly.  And those pesky closed captions..

Well, what if you list you online courses on Amazon without having to go through the whole AVD rigmarole?

Dave has worked out how this can be done and in today's episode of the show he discusses how he did this and the great benefits this strategy offers online instructors.

This also applies to any digital assets you may have including audio books, ebooks and even podcasts!

The main benefits are:

• You list your course, you don't have to upload it again
• It works for any platform including Udemy, Thinkific, Teachable and many more…
• There is no cost for listing
• There are Eight steps to complete the process - and Dave shows you exactly how this is done, step by step in his course "Hidden Revenue Exposed"
• You access a market place of 300m people, 20x that of Udemy
• There is little or no competition for online courses right now

Hidden Revenues Exposed

You can find out all about the course and enroll by following this link

Amazon Listing Course - List Your Online Video Course on Amazon (BONUS COURSE)

I enrolled in Dave's course right away and so far have listed 10 of my courses on Amazon.  I have found that my experience of Amazon meant that I had extra things I wanted to add to Dave's course to make it easier, faster and to help you to avoid some of the newbie mistakes I made.  You can find my course below.

http://thesixminutestrategist.teachable.com/p/amazonlisting

Please note = you need to enroll in Dave's course to get any benefit from my course - I do not share the method with you in my course - only the tips, tricks and tactics I worked out while I was listing my own courses.

Special Offer - Two for the Price of One

For the rest of the month of October - if you enroll in Dave's course using my link and send me an email of your receipt that I can match to my affiliate account, I will send you a free coupon to my course.  This offer expires on 31st October 2017 at midnight.

Welcome to the Optimistic Entrepreneur Podcast!

Optimistic Entrepreneur! This Podcast is focused on you the Optimistic Entrepreneur

This short introduction explains how my podcasts have evolved and why I have now launched my third Podcast, the Optimistic Entrepreneur Podcast!

I started out with "A Conversation with the Six Minute Strategist" which was a great excuse to speak to lots of interesting people that I knew and to get them to share great information.  I really enjoyed it but there were two problems.  It did not really have any focus and secondly it did not tell you who it was for - it sounded like it was all about me.

Then my Online Learning Podcast, almost went the other way.  Too focused.  Again great fun and amazing guests but very Udemy centric which meant that I was spending my time promoting some one else's brand.  Duh!

Optimistic Entrepreneur

So now, my new brand is the Optimistic Entrepreneur - and that is you!  I want to find people who will provide great ideas, tactics, tips and stories to make you even more successful!

In my first few episodes, you are going to hear quite a lot about equity crowdfunding as I am in the middle of a campaign and it seems to be a great idea to give you a view from the trenches, so to speak.

Watch out for some great Episodes coming very soon with some great interviews with Entrepreneurs, just like you!

Engage with Me!

I would love to hear from you!

What topics would you like me to cover? Perhaps you know someone who would be a great guest on the show?  Maybe that is you?  Reach out and let me know: john[at]jbdcolley.com.

I like to try to record interviews in video as well as in audio so that the interview can reach a wider audience but this does not have to be the case for every episode.

So if you have something to say, let me know!

I am delighted to welcome Internet Marketing Expert Greg Jeffries to the Optimistic Entrepreneur Podcast.  Having seen the success Greg was having (he publishes his income reports), I was very keen to get him on to the podcast as a guest to ask him about his marketing strategies.

Greg is a very successful internet marketer who is focusing on Affiliate marketing using very focused SEO and Long Tail Keywords.

In June 2015 Greg made $1,548.08

In August 2017, just two years later, he made $18,034.23 

[In the show reel, I have provided a summary of his earnings over the last two years by affiliate programme so that you can see exactly where he has been making his money and this may help you to decide where to focus your efforts.  Incidentally, I have done the same with another internet marketer, Mark Woodward.]

There is something seriously smart going on and I wanted to find out more.

Greg is very open about his approach and helps us to understand why is affiliate marketing business is so successful. Greg is very much focused on Long Tail SEO for his marketing activities. 

In particular, Greg focuses on Transactional keywords (intent) and by going after the long tail, he has less competition which greatly improves his organic search results and ranking in Google.

Greg has a very systematic approach

1. He understands SEO
2. He identifies niches and acquires domains with niche keywords
3. He creates a niche website
4. He identifies the competitive and profitable keywords associated with that niche using Keyword.io (I also use Market Samurai)
5. He gets his on page SEO right
6. He gets his off page SEO right, particularly with some neat back linking strategies
7. He tracks his progress with Google Analytics
8. He identifies and promotes affiliate products, particularly identifying attractive products in Affiliate networks
9. He builds and cultivates an email list.
10. He scales his content distribution

Meet Jackie

"Hi! I'm Jackie. I have a degree in Architecture from U.C. Berkeley. An MBA from Nova University, a Master of Science in Finance from FIU and you might say I eat, breathe and sleep business growth!

As a digital marketer and business owner, I spend most of my time learning and applying strategies on how to grow a business so I can sell it at a profit! - I share everything I learned over the past 18+ years in my Udemy courses!

In August 2015, my youngest son turned 21. After 20 years of building businesses (many times I succeeded, many times I failed) I ditched my massive house and moved to a cozier place. My goal is to be able to spend more time creating Udemy courses (In English and Spanish) and share my knowledge. I also want to dedicate my time to building IoT (Internet of Things) projects…ah, and Crowdfund them whenever possible."

In today's Episode of the Online Learning Podcast, I am delighted to welcome four guests from the New Media Europe Conference 2015; Jelle Derckx, Jonathan Tilley, Katrina Buderuus and Cliff Ravenscraft.  After these great people gave scintillating speeches I was lucky enough to grab them for a few minutes each for an exclusive interview for the Online Learning Podcast

In this Week's Episode: In this Episode we discuss:

Jelle Derckx

• How "Think and Grow Rich" inspired Jelle to blog about personal development
• How Jelle came to create his online course about simplifying your life
• Offers some advice about how online blogging can help online course creators
• How to make money with an awesome online blog
• Why podcasting is such a great way to create a community
• How to take the answers from interview guests and turn it into a blog article which would be really engaging
• Why you need to keep blog posts short and punchy
• Why Jelle is going to create an English course about minimalism on Udemy

Jelle lives in the Netherlands and was born in 1984. Performing has always been his passion and he graduated from Acting College when he was 24. From 24 to 27 he didn’t have a great time and was struggling with negative thoughts about himself and was constantly comparing himself with others.

Jelle decided to make a big break and went to Brazil with a book: Think and Grow Rich. That book changed Jelle’s life and thinking completely. He came back to the Netherlands and made life changes (minimalism) and decided to share it on a blog.

After a year he made a course on minimalism, wrote a book and started podcasting about the topics he was passionate about.

Now, Jelle has two blogs, one on acting and filmmaking and one about personal development and minimalism. Both blogs have a podcast and an email list of 4500 people. Jelle is 31 and he’s living in Amsterdam as an entrepreneur.

In this Week's Episode: Jeremy Deigan

In this Episode Jeremy and I discuss:

• 1) What was your first course, and what was the experience like?2) Do you feel it is better to stay in one specific niche, or is it ok to diversify your talents and try multiple niches?
  Plan
  3) The data from Visokio Omniscope is amazing. I have heard you mention that it also has a high price point. Do you have or plan on creating courses for this software? Do you have or plan on sharing this information either publicly or through a subscription?
  Produce
  4) When creating courses, do you prefer using your time to create many average quality courses or less high quality courses?
  Publish
  5)Recently you mentioned changing all of your courses to a fixed price of $19 to match the market of sales from what Udemy offers. Have you seen any change in sales since you made this adjustment?
  Proof
  6) What is the best strategy for building an email list from someone who currently has no following, no audience, and maybe no website?
  Promote
  7) Why do you recommend to have multiple Twitter accounts when creating a promotion strategy?
  Platforms
  8) Do you feel that it is better to focus all of your energy on a couple of platforms such as Udemy and Youtube, or put your courses on as many channels as you can find?
  9) How else can I build a brand through multiple networks? I know that you also have social media, podcast, and eBooks. Do you have any other recommendations for getting yourself noticed in the online world?
  10) If you had to start over from the beginning with the knowledge you have now, what would you have done differently?
