Why create online courses?

• You can record it once and have it teach people (while you get paid for it) over and over again.
• Teaching online has the LOWEST START-UP COSTS of any online business
• This is the RIGHT TIME because it's a growing market and there is technology in place to make it easy for you.
• Literally ANYONE can create online courses! You don't need to have an established audience, know how to market, or be great with technology.
• You can create passive income, side income, additional revenue streams or become a full time online instructor.
• Most importantly, you add value to the world by sharing your passion or wisdom

WHO ARE WE?

We are Joeel & Natalie Rivera. Creating online courses transformed our business at a time when we needed it. After returning from our honeymoon, Joeel became ill. Spending almost a year on bedrest, we were unable to continue conducting our in-person workshops, speeches and coach training programs. However, what felt like a curse turned out to be a blessing because in 2015 we decided we wouldn't let our circumstances hold us back and we converted all of our programs into online courses. We learned everything we could about teaching online.

Today, we have served almost 40,000 students from over 170 countries. We're happy and healthy and our business is thriving. We live at the beach, create our own schedules, travel when we want to, and love what we do!

And, now we want to teach YOU everything we've learned about creating online courses, so that you can get paid to teach what you know and love while helping people from around the world.
