How do you get your first 20+ paid students after launching with free coupons?

Hi fellow instructors,

I launched my nutrition course and currently have 1,100 students with a 4.68 rating, but almost all of them enrolled via free coupons during launch. This gave me some traction, but now I want to focus on paid enrollments and attract students who genuinely engage and leave feedback.

How do you actually start getting paid students ? I have already applied for the deals program but im still struggling.

Any insights or experiences would be super helpful.

Thanks in advance!
