This course is delivered asynchronously, which means it is 100% online and completely self-paced.
There are no live classes, no interactions between other students or the teacher, and no specific times you need to be present. All learning is done individually & flexibly at your own pace.
The timeline for completion of this course will depend on many factors and on your specific situation; however, it is logical and reasonable to complete all modules within 5 weeks or less (not including the "practice & scaling up" phase, which may take much longer). Read the free Course Outline for more information.
There are 7 core modules in this course. Because some modules are divided into two, there are actually 10 modules. Each module has an overall theme containing one or several skills, and each builds on previous skills. To maximize your learning, each module has a motivational video, introduction, interactive lectures, a quiz, a list of action items, printable documents and worksheets, a competency checklist, and more.
The This Better Home YouTube channel began monetizing within approximately 12 months using the model this course will teach you. Applying these strategies, which are now refined, it is possible for you to meet the YouTube requirements for monetizing anywhere between 3-12 months (logical estimation) after you complete the course. Of course, there is no guarantee your channel will monetize after taking this course, or your channel may monetize much faster! Like anything, success depends on several factors, including your available time, motivation, ability to understand and apply concepts, hard work, etc.
If you are a self-starter and hard worker, are committed to earning passive income with little to no start-up costs, and have access to a smartphone with a working camera, iMovie (or similar software) and decent storage, this class is for you.
Not many! No fancy or expensive equipment is needed. All you need is your smartphone (iPhone strongly recommended) with a camera, microphone, video-editing software (iMovie recommended), and decent storage (32GB or more). If you do not enjoy working on a smartphone, you will need access to an iPad or computer and possibly a separate camera. We also recommend you have access to a color printer, as the course workbook and documents are better if you can physically write on them.
Unfortunately, no. Because you have instant access to the course upon enrollment, refunds are not allowed. Be sure to read all the course details, view the free preview lessons, and ask any questions you may have by emailing the instructor at [email protected] **before** you decide to enroll in this course.
This course is 100% asynchronous and self-paced. Because there is no live component, you will not meet or interact with other students or Ryan, the instructor. Personalized mentorship is not possible (at this time), but if you wish to inquire about the possibility of hiring Ryan as a YouTube channel coach, please send an email to [email protected].
