You may have already noticed. The most popular way to make money from a blog is by selling courses. I did it for the first time in 2012. Back then I didn't even have a subscriber list and it was enough to tweet or talk about the offer in my posts to reach more than 500 students around the world.

All this arose from the need to generate extra income, since my first startup, Coguan, could no longer pay me a salary that covered my monthly expenses. Then Quondos came along and I had the opportunity to do this type of business frequently. Since then, I have easily done around 50 launches for 20 or so courses.
Added to this are around 20 online project launches. The japan phone number most recent of these is that of my own agency Beguerrilla .
During this time I have learned one important thing. You have to be very clear about what people need. This is obvious, but it is not so much about obtaining this information.
Those of us who move in the online world sometimes complicate our lives. We look for sophisticated ways, tools, consultants to obtain this data. The most obvious thing is often overlooked: talking directly to your potential client .
How to do it? The easiest way is to conduct surveys among your readers (if you have a blog) or organize some kind of raffle promoted with Facebook Ads to get responses.
You need to focus on finding out your potential customer's biggest pain point . Allow them to answer this question in detail and also ask for their phone number as an option. Give everyone who leaves you their details along with an answer that took them several minutes to prepare a call . Spend time getting more details. This information is worth its weight in gold because if someone takes the time to answer you in this way, you have a good chance of selling them your product.
