You’re ready to create your course content, but then it hits you—the video part. Maybe you’re thinking you’ll need professional equipment, a perfect studio setup, or worse, you’ll have to stare into a camera lens for hours while trying not to look awkward. As a course creator, this is where I get stuck too. All…
I’ve been paying attention to what’s happening with digital products lately, and I’ve seen some clear patterns on where digital product trends are going.
