Hi Roma Thank you for your comments and encouragement. I just launched my first course on udemy so I'm a rookie. What or how is the best way to market the course. I'v only had 1 student so far. How did you get the word out... Thank you

I have a brief video lecture on " .. now what?", where I give suggestions on what to do next, tell them about my other course and resources. Then I have a downloadable pdf with links and how to approach the exam, and I have links to my other courses, my website and resources.

Thanks, @GregReverdiau . Us pilots always find each other.

Let's drop it. I changed already. The point is still made.

Thor · ‎03-03-2019

OHAI GREG! (also awesome video).

LawrenceMMiller · ‎03-02-2019

Most of us update our courses, or add material, from time to time. I have completely re-recorded two of my first courses and replaced all the old lectures. As you learn to do things better you look back and may not be happy with your earliest work.

LOL that's a pretty big win! Put the baby to sleep while you learn.

Hi there! I'm Maram Shtaya, I'm a Palestinian Pharmacist and American Studies Instructor. I have joined Udemy since one year, and I'm really so glad to meat other instructors who belong to literature, Biomedical, and Pharmaceutical sciences. I took many courses at Udemy and as well, I published about ten courses at Udemy. My passion is to make courses by using interdisciplinary approaches and qualitative researches with their resources. And I hope that I can make more connections with other instructors. Best wishes!! Ph. Maram A. N. Shtaya

Hi mam , how i can get my T-shirt ? or how i can purchase ?

VictorGorinov · ‎02-24-2019

Sounds awesome, Dan! I'm glad to meet you, your subject seems very interesting. I wish you best of luck 🙂

Brendo · ‎02-23-2019

Thanks, however, marketing and promotion is something of a mystery to me. I have created apps and websites in the past, but I have never really got my head around how to get people to find and buy them. Any advise would be greatly appreciated 🙏😊

DavidBookbinder · ‎02-22-2019

I can completely relate to this feeling. However, now that I've finally posted a couple of videos and found, from the kind people on this forum, that I'm not far from where I need to go, I feel much more confident that the rest of the process will be just more learning and doing, and that it will get easier with time. When we start something new, it's hard to be a good judge of ourselves, so it helps to get external validation early in the process. Afterwards, it becomes internal. Hope that helps. I'd love to see a little of what you're doing. David

GregReverdiau · ‎02-20-2019

Lawrence, that was one tricky thing to do! The reason the camera is so tight on me on that 3rd angle is because of the limited size of the green screen. It does cover the entire wall (about 8 foot wide) but in a perfect world, it would need to wrap around the corner wall to get a slightly wider shot. My green screen is very long (you're supposed be be standing on it) so I could probably put it sideways to get that length but my little guess room is just too small for all that. Once my studio is built, I will wrap it around the edges of the wall. See the non-keyed image here: that very very thin white line on the left side is the edge of my screen.

Thanks a lot for your quick revert. I got your point of keeping the course price at the actual value so that the perceived value is high. Also if you can share your experience of using coupons and how to get early reviews that would be great. Thank again 🙂

Thor · ‎02-14-2019

Welcome! (Who is Josh?)

Thor · ‎02-14-2019

Welcome! I hope you have great success here on Udemy.

Thor · ‎02-14-2019

Is there a question here or something we can help you with?

Ed_Foychuk · ‎02-14-2019

But, but... I LIKED talking to you, Thor! 😉

Thor · ‎02-12-2019

Enough to quit my day-job. I listened to student feedback, QA, reviews, had subtitles fixed, made better promos, better course descriptions. In my Facebook I asked for people to look at my courses to make them better or find mistakes or places they could be clearer. I gave 30 coupons away, 20 never did anything (other than get a free course), 6-7 sent me a few sentences of suggestions, but the last 3-4 sent me pages and pages of suggestions and clarifications. Some I implemented, some I did not (if they were not relevant, or were the way they were because that is how that certification would ask it or phrase it). The 3-4 that I got all the feedback from got free coupons to all my courses as a reward.

If you are recording a "talking heads" video, try to record smaller sections of it and then use your video editor to put it back together. Example, if you have a 3 minute talk, try splitting it into three 1 minute sections and record each 1 minute section. With smaller sections, you have a better chance of completing the recording before encountering a loud external noise. Also, if there are times of the day that tend to be quieter, you can try recording during those times. Another tip is to move your computer desk/equipment as far away from the window as possible.

WE MADE IT! Also the new site looks amazing!

Thor · ‎02-11-2019

Hello and I think it is going to be a great place for sharing knowledge.

Thor · ‎02-11-2019

Hello and welcome 🙂

Thor · ‎02-11-2019

Hello! I agree I think this will be a great collaborative space where we can actually share knowledge and it is available after a few weeks, where on Facebook it would drown in the feed.

Thor · ‎02-11-2019

Ciao Andrea. It will be good times!

Thor · ‎02-11-2019

Welcome! I think it is a huge improvement over Facebook, it is much easier finding articles and sharing knowledge with other instructors in this format. I would think it is 620 or something, there were a good deal Udemy employees on the platform before it was open. You can see the # in your profile URL https://community.udemy.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/XXXXXX <-- that is your ID

Thor · ‎02-11-2019

Welcome and it does look and feel AWESOME!

Thor · ‎02-11-2019

Welcome 🙂 The ATR2100 is what I use and I think it is an awesome microphone for the price. As an ESL myself I spent a lot of time slowing down, pronouncing clearer, and making myself more understandable (and when all else fails subtitles).

Thor · ‎02-11-2019

Hello and Welcome here 🙂

Thor · ‎02-11-2019

Hi there and welcome 🙂 We can all grow together here.
