Okay, this next mistake I made, it's not exactly a common mistake. I'm going to tell you something here that that's weird. That guy is weird. But about four years ago, I had a slow month, it was August. My normal Training Calendar was not that booked. And I just did 100 Udemy courses in basically a month.
And there was a lot of good ideas there. I mean, I have my own studio, and I've been making videos for 30 years. So it's relatively easy for me to talk. And I typically do things in one take. So it's not wildly time consuming, but still come on 100 courses in one month is too much. My quality suffered.
You here in Silicon Valley in the software world, everyone talks about how to get your minimum viable product out there. Yeah, but if it's too many In a moment might not be viable. In retrospect, I rushed it. I hurried it now, for me doing 100 courses in a month that was too rushed for you. Maybe doing five courses, maybe even doing one course in a month if you don't really think about it and plan it the right way is a rush. Don't make that mistake.
It's better to get it. I won't say right or perfect, but it's better to get it good. Have a good launch, promote it, get it out there, get some traction, get some reviews. It doesn't have to be a blockbuster. You don't have to be one of these instructors who does a course does a couple more. All of a sudden they're making a million dollars a year and that's rare.
I'm not that person. Unless you really know arcane, sophisticated issues and artificial intelligence and programming. You're probably not gonna make a million dollars. Here even if you'll watch all the courses on how to make and sell courses on Udemy but don't make the mistake I did. Don't do too many courses too quickly. You don't want to futz with it for a year and micromanage everything and try to make it perfect.
That's not good. But don't go to the other extreme that I did of having too many too quickly.
