What you'll learn
Getting past the cringe with “self promotion”

Which early numbers to trust, how to handle zero views and trolls, and why influencer benchmarks can be misleading.
Turn followers and viewers into paying students
How Mike cut the clicks from video to checkout, and how he built credibility to win over a skeptical crowd.
Why this topic matters
A great course doesn't sell itself. Most experts treat self-promotion as a personality trait they don't have, so they post sporadically, get no traction, and quit. The audience they do build never turns into students because the path to buy is unclear.
I don't consider myself a marketer, but I learned that marketing isn't a talent. It's a system you can fix. I look forward to sharing how I built mine so you can build yours.
