Difference Between an Online Course and Online Course Business 

Creating just an online course is easy and can be done in a few hours. You could just create some videos, upload them on a course marketplace like Udemy, and be done with it. You wouldn’t be building a brand and identity that way, though. 

Instead, building an online course business is just that—a business. Running an online course business is more than just creating courses. It also involves branding, marketing, and sales aspects.

In that sense, we want to cover how to launch your online course business, not just create a few courses. We want to talk about the more long-term goal of running a successful online course business.
