Today it is simple to share your knowledge online and through the courses you create. What is even easier is to use one of the online software packages that is out there to help you create your course. Before I tell you about the software that is available, let me tell you how easy it is to make your own online courses and start earning money today.

• Choose Your Course Topic – This is the easy part. You select a topic that you love and you are good at. Let’s continue on about gardening. As a gardener, you have a lot to offer people. You can teach them how to plant different types of fruits and vegetables in their own yard. Furthermore, you have the knowledge about bugs and how to control these pesky creatures in the garden. On top of all this, you can teach a p0erson the right time of the year how to prune a tree and how to take care of their lawn. You have so much to offer and people are always looking for experienced people to help them.
• Understand Your Market Value – this is important if you want to sell your courses and get people to attend. Every course you create should have a high potential for attracting people. Otherwise, there is no use to create the course.
• Being Creative – this is very important when creating your course. You need to keep people interested in your topic. Don’t spend hours on end talking about the same topic over and over again. Talk about what is important to people and give them what they need.
• Collecting Content – before starting to create your course it is best to have all your material ready. Make your plan, gather your material, and write your content.
• Structuring Your Course – now you have all your content it is time to sit down and draw out a course plan. How do you want to present this to people? A flow chart is an excellent way to create a course plan and it helps you to hit on all the important topics during each course lesson.
• Your Delivery Method – this is where you’ll decide if you want to use some videos, flow charts or images to get your point across. There are some people who do short videos and add some images. Don’t just sit there and talk without some type of visual aids. People will get bored and walk away and not come back again.
• How to Create Your Course – this is where some of the software I was talking about comes in handy. They can help you to film, edit, and polish your courses. Here you can select from a variety of online course platforms you can use. This will greatly depend on your talents and your budget.

• Advertising Your Course – this will be the hardest part of your adventure. Finding the right way to advertise your course in order to attract clients. There are so many ways you can do this. Social media is a great way to start. If you own a website or blog, you can always advertise on there. A great way to get people interested is to offer them a free introductory course they can take.
