No matter what you do in life or business, having a solid foundation is critical in achieving success.
But what do your foundations need to look like before you create your online program?
Build a foundation fit for a skyscraper
Have you ever heard of the Burj Khalifa? It’s the tallest building in the world, soaring at 2,716 feet beyond the clouds.
What many people don’t realize, though, as they stare at this amazing feat of engineering is that this mega-tall structure has a foundation that rests more than 50 meters into the earth’s bedrock.
To withstand the weight of the building, the architecture needs to take into account the climate surrounding the building, and the natural disasters like earthquakes that may try to topple it. Skyscrapers need foundations as complex as the buildings people see above-ground.
The 5 questions to help you build your foundation
Creating a foundation for your online program as solid as that used for skyscrapers may not seem like it’s needed. You may be overwhelmed by so many ideas and questions. But it’s absolutely essential if you want long-term success and sustainability.
Begin by reverse engineering what you want to achieve. Start by asking yourself these questions:
• What are you trying to achieve by creating an online course?
• What collateral do you have in your existing business that you can bundle into an online program?
• Where does your online program sit within the suite of your current products or services?
• How can you make your online program flow effortlessly within your business?
• What will you offer your customer once they’ve completed your online program?
Asking these questions is just the first step towards a successful online program, but these can help you dig deep and construct a solid foundation for your venture.
Conclusion
Ensuring your foundation is well built is the key to any venture you have in life or business. Without a solid foundation, your entire online program may collapse or, worse, may never be launched at all. You need to create, piece by piece, a strong foundation that will support your online venture.
