    Episode 126 How long does it take to promote a language group course and what's involved

    I'm super passionate about helping people build sustainable group programs. While one-on-one classes are great, they often can't be turned into a sustainable business model. That's why I'm so excited to guide you through the process of creating and selling amazing group offers.
    But I know you might have some questions. What does it take to run a group program? How can you turn it into a thriving business? Well, I've got you covered!

    Understanding your target audienceCreating a marketing strategy that takes your audience on a journey from low awareness to being ready to buyHow long it takes to prepare for the launch of a group program and why you shouldn't rush itHow I planned my podcast content to nurture my audience before I launch my group programHave you tried selling group offers yet?

    Episode 122 Your exit plan from an online platform to teaching language on your own terms

    Episode 122 Your exit plan from an online platform to teaching language on your own terms

    This episode is the result of discussions I had with my audience after I published episode 119 about online learning platforms. While some people shared their struggles and dreadful experiences with these platforms, others found great success and were grateful for the opportunities they provided. Despite the differing experiences, they all share a common desire: to build their own businesses and become independent. Even those who initially found success on online platforms eventually aim to transition to teaching on their own terms. 
    So, in this episode, I'll walk you through a step-by-step plan to transition away from online platforms and build your independent teaching business.
    Hit the play button above to find out:
    Why setting a deadline is crucialMy tips for making room to focus on your businessTwo important steps in building your business foundationThe biggest mistake teachers make when starting their social media marketing Ready to go fully independent and start marketing to get your own students in 6 short weeks? Then Rocket Fuel is for you!
    Make sure you sign up for the waitlist of the new edition of the course starting in May!

Great teacher guidance delivered with humour and kindness

I’ve only just discovered Ola’s podcast, and am thoroughly enjoying her approach.
She’s got a great sense of humour, and she conveys her information and guidance with authenticity.

StephCeCo ,

Every Teacher Should Listen!

Wow, Ola is fantastic! She inspires and articulates her perspective on ELT, both the teaching and business sides, so well! I found myself nodding in agreement on almost everything she says. She’s incredibly authentic and open, I love listening!
