“The hardest part is just getting started, actually, because a lot of people say, well, yeah, I’ve got to make it perfect. I’ve got to do all these slides and presentations, curriculum, all this documentation. The best thing to do is just get started.”
This week, Grant sits down with Michael Patellis the cofounder of CopeCart to talk about developing a course as a speaker.
“A lot of people, they require that discipline of being able to follow a script and follow a syllabus of, okay, I have to do this thing this week, next week, etc. And then there’s others that their courses are almost independent study. So a lot of it depends on the market segment that you’re in and how detailed your course is and what the skill set is.”
