    2025/12/17

    I'm breaking down what to do when the Facebook group grind stops working. I share real, practical strategies that I've used myself to market my continuing education Podcourses, without burning out or relying solely on social media.

    I talk about:

    • Why Facebook posts lose momentum
    • How to build a simple email marketing funnel that actually works
    • Why partnerships and podcast guesting can open new doors
    • The power of searchable, evergreen content
    • And how to make it ridiculously easy for someone to buy your course

    If you're tired of spinning your wheels, this episode will help you pivot, not panic. Plus, I give you a behind-the-scenes look at how I market my Podcourse bundle, including what didn't work and what finally clicked.
