Clear understanding - It absolutely helps your audience understand what they will be learning and how it relates to their own goals so they can stay focused and engaged.
Increases credibility and authority - If your outline is well-organized then it give the instructor credibility and shows authority for that topic, demonstrating expertise and professionalism.
Attracts audience - If your outline is detailed and clearly defines your target audience and the benefits, people are more likely to enroll, leading to increased profit.
AVATAR/IDEAL CUSTOMER OUTLINE:
Helps with marketing - When you identify your target audience, you are able to market your course better because you can send the right message to the right people, increasing profit.
Increases engagement & focus - When your course is tailored to the needs and preferences of your target market, it will resonate with them, increasing motivation to learn.
Increases retention - By clearly designing for the target audience, it will more likely meet their needs and interests, in turn improving retention and focus on that topic.
Builds know, like, & trust - When the audience feels that the course is specifically for them, they feel obligated to give back - they will more likely become loyal customers leading to increased profit.
Allows for customization - Understanding the target audience allows for customization of the course content and delivery, leading to a more personalized learning experience.

Now, if you are new, please allow me to introduce myself and tell you my personal story…
How I Got Started online:
My name is Rachel, and I started my first course, Inspired Marketing Bootcamp, around the Fall of 2021. I remember struggling SO much at the beginning because like some of you, I had no clue how to get a course started or really the entire process of it. I had no experience, no marketing skill, and no tech skills.
I even invested in a few courses, e-books and training, but I still wasn’t getting what I wanted, nor the traffic!
Okay, let's be real here...
It wasn't getting traffic because I was inexperienced, had no confidence, and didn't know what I was doing. I honestly started feeling a little defeated - after all the time and effort I put in making the course and I was getting nothing back.
But let’s jump back a little…
I was working 50 or more hours a week, managing a referral medical dept for 17offices for the last 13 years and I really wanted to do something more. I had worked so hard for this company and really wasn’t getting back the respect I deserved from the company. I watched as they fired and let go one person after another within those 13 years and knew that soon, even though I gave them my time and energy, I would be that next person. They did not really care who the hurt nor how they hurt them. But I need a job and in our economy & our city, it was the best I could find.
Then one day, out of no where, they called me on the phone… Yes, I said called me… and HR and the COO said, “yeah, we are restructuring your dept, so this will be your last day.”
Not joking even a little. My entire team was in shock. I was in shock.
I asked why would I be the one to leave? What did I do? They said, “Oh, you did nothing wrong, we are just restructuring. You get a 2 week severance and please out all your stuff at the front.”
It was the most unprofessional, disrespectful way to let someone go, and I had been there working so hard for them for so long, I really didn’t know what to do. I mean, it was like I was getting divorced with my job.
I can say though, almost everyone that could, quit, and everyone else wanted to. They were family! It was really devastating.
Now, I had the time to build on my business, but this was not the way I wanted to do it. But I was not given a choice - so I took it and ran. I built my first 2 courses as I mentioned.
So now, I had those courses, and I was not making money. So I had a few friends take the course and tell me what they thought, and guess what?
They came back saying it was informative and very helpful!
Maybe it wasn't necessarily my course. Maybe it was the fact that I wasn't getting out there enough. (Not much for social media ;/ )
So, I really dug into what I needed to do to make money and how to get it out there. I researched and studied what people wanted and what they needed and finally I started making some headway.
I grew my email list from 0 to 700 within a couple days by using solo ads specifically for my niche. Solo Ads being a way to buy clicks through an experts email list for the same niche as me.
Finally, I had the confidence to get out there and push my course on Social media platforms and Pinterest. I started making money on it and believe me, I couldn't be more happy at that time.
Then I went on to make another course, Inspired Email Campaigns, where I get people to the next level in their email marketing and set up, which took fairly fast. I made a course on Squarespace Web Design, showing you how to get your website started and up.
And I fell IN LOVE with CREATING COURSES & WEB DESIGN! Now, I not only offer courses, but web design services as well! That is why I have created this newest course for you all! I put all my past experience and knowledge into one course and it has everything you need to create, market, and launch your course!
