G'day everyone,
I'm going to teach people Spanish!
The general idea: I'm building a Spanish audio course at the moment. I am damn sure it is near the fastest and painless ways you can learn Spanish. I've taken the good and bad points that people talk about regarding existing popular spanish courses and am synthesising it into a seriously brilliant 10-15 hour audio course.
I'm going to sell this course online for a price between $50 and $300 - not sure what price yet, and eventually build more products to supplement it to help with vocab and everything.
So, I'm basically building and selling an information product. I learned Spanish using the methods I'm teaching resorting to them because all the learning methods I could find on the internet were and still are total junk.
I guess you could describe other learning methods as 'slowlane spanish' and only a couple i can really say are 'fastlane spanish' but they have some serious weaknesses. Mine is definitely 'fastlane spanish' hahaha
I am going to market this via a blog about Spanish to attract an audience. Maybe a youtube channel as well. I don't know, marketing is really the issue.
Once I'm getting traffic, and i can convert these to sales, I'm sure it will help a lot of people learn Spanish and make me money.
It is combining both 1) internet and 2) innovation. this method is very innovative.
CENTS:
Need: people want to learn spanish, duh. the existing products suck so much and people are screaming for something better, including me at one point. this industry is ripe for disruption. my product is ridiculously innovative compared to all the other methods regurgitating phrasebooks and school classes.
Entry: you have to know Spanish and English to teach Spanish to English speakers effectively. online businesses and a complex information product like this are hard to build effectively. also, my product is super innovative so go ahead, build your own stupid method, most suck except for a handful.
Control: I control my product completely.
Scale: english speakers who want to learn spanish are many. an information product has no problems scaling. internet is super scalable
Time: easy to put a blog/info product sale on autopilot. don't need to hire people if i dont want to.
WHAT DO YOU THINK I NEED TO DO to help thousands of people benefit from my audio course? marketing/copywriting/seo/blogging etc.
what do you think of my plan and any suggestions to help my online biz are welcome.
thanks, also this is a progress post and im just starting out so lets see how it goes. ill keep this post updated with progress obviously.
oh yeah, ive saved a years expenses to live in south america (spanish land) next year which will give me freedom to put my effort and abundant 18 year old energy into building the business. cant wait to get there.
