What if your teaching skills are sabotaging your course sales?

Laura Barnhart discovered this painful truth when her scattered marketing approach kept her stuck despite having incredible student testimonials. As a practicing occupational therapist working full-time in a Level 3 NICU, she knew her continuing education content was valuable - but her launches weren't reflecting that value.

Over five months, we transformed Laura's marketing from hodgepodge confusion into a strategic system that tripled her launch revenue from $3K to $13K. The secret wasn't fancy tactics or massive ad budgets - it was shifting from teacher language to buyer language and optimizing key conversion points in her funnel.

🔥 In This Episode:

  • Discover why great teachers often struggle with marketing and how to bridge that gap

  • Learn the baseline approach to launch optimization that eliminates expensive guesswork

  • See the exact funnel fixes that took Laura's return on ad spend from 2.6x to 4.7x
