Growing your Instagram following can be tricky business. If you've ever struggled with your IG account, you know my guest is an expert on the platform: Jasmine Star!

Jasmine is a law school dropout, turned photographer, turned business strategist, who has transitioned from offering 1:1 services, to digital courses, to now a membership model to help business owners grow their social media reach.

In this episode, she's dishing on some lessons she learned the hard way, sharing a couple of embarrassing stories she's NEVER told before, and continuing to be an all-around inspiration.

In this episode, we'll cover:

  • Jasmine's challenges in transitioning from selling online courses to a membership or subscription model
  • How Jasmine overcame finding out the domain she wanted was already owned by someone else
  • What a "side hustle clause" means, and why you might want to include it in your employment or independent contractor agreements
  • A few alternatives to consider if you need a contract but can't afford to hire a lawyer to create one from scratch

This podcast is information, not legal advice specific to your situation.

Have you poured your heart and soul into creating an online course? How upset would you be if one of your students copied some or all of your course content and tried to sell it as their own?

Our Legal Road Map® to Protect Your Online Course contract template bundle can help you lock down your course content in the time it takes you to catch a few episodes of your latest Netflix binge.
