Oops….posting this a bit late in the month. But here are my goals for the month:
1.) Start posting Sumo Dojo videos every Friday. These are videos me and Noah make for AppSumo. There’s really no purpose for these other than they’re FUN TO MAKE and we get to answer everyone’s questions.
Soon we’ll have a page (like this I made 10 minutes ago) where people can view them on AppSumo. For now you can see some previous Sumo Dojo videos here.
2.) The next course I’m making is almost hilarious to me….but everyone keeps asking me the same question: How to make a course.
I’ve made some online courses that have done pretty well…..because they’re so damn helpful to the people taking them (like these two). So far three of my courses have done extraordinarily well, one was “alright”, and one totally flopped.
So the next one I make will actually be a course….ABOUT building a course! That sounds so cheesy….but now when someone keeps barraging me with questions about this, I can point them in one place.
3.) I’m learning to outsource stuff more often. Not necessarily overseas, but to people that can do stuff better than I can. For example, I did this today:
Instead of filming and editing an interview myself, I let a pro handle it.
He’s got amazing camera equipment and professional editing stuff. Plus he’s faster.
In this case it makes more sense to let him handle the filming, and I can just worry about being a pretty (ugly) face on camera.
The studio we were filming in was a warehouse-style space….these pictures look like we’re filming some terrorist ransom note….but the actual video turned out great :-)
Well….those are my goals for the month of January 2012….do you have YOUR goals set yet??
