Best Of

The days of seeing big jumps in revenue during the BF sale are long gone.

For me, just normal days so far (and by normal I mean, bad in terms of sales).

What a dud. I miss the olden days of hitting refresh and the excitement. This is sad to see.

Oddly enough I've had more sales from October 28th-November 13th which was followed by a sudden drop in sales. From November 21-24 I've seen sales increase partially I suppose because I sent out a promotional email to students and published a new course on Android Development. Currently I have 16 students in that course where 12 of these students bought the course through my promotion. It would have been nice if more than 4 would have purchased organically via Udemy but Black Friday is not quite over yet.

If I’m sharing my thoughts, it would be helpful to know in advance when Black Friday actually begins. For example, I scheduled the Android course to be published two weeks before Black Friday, on November 15th, but it turned out the sale started much earlier than I expected.

Hoping for the best!

I hear ya. I’ve been spending all my free time building out my website and YouTube channel. I’m still keeping the door cracked and hoping things turn around somehow, though.

Same. This Black Friday only showed me that it’s time to move on. Currently working on picking up my YouTube channel and promoting my courses to my email list.
