Startup checklist

  • •Define the transformation
  • •Outline modules
  • •Plan a pilot cohort
  • •Set up a sales page

Step-by-step workflow

  1. Define the outcome

    What will students be able to do by the end?

  2. Outline modules

    Use AI to propose structure; trim to the essentials.

  3. Run a pilot

    Teach live to a small group before recording anything.

  4. Create materials

    Slides, worksheets and short lessons based on pilot feedback.

  5. Build the sales page

    Lead with the outcome, curriculum and student results.

  6. Launch and improve

    Gather feedback after each module and refine.

From idea to launch

30-day action plan

  1. Week 1

    Define a teachable outcome

    • •Choose one skill you can demonstrate and ask prospective learners about their starting point.
    • •Write a measurable final task, prerequisites and a simple assessment rubric.
    • •Outline a short workshop or mini-course; do not use AI to imply expertise you do not have.

    Deliverable: A course brief, learner profile and final-task rubric.

    Check: The outcome describes something a learner can actually demonstrate.

  2. Week 2

    Teach a live pilot

    • •Invite a small pilot group with clear expectations and feedback permission.
    • •Create a short lesson, worked example and guided exercise before recording a full course.
    • •Observe where learners get stuck and collect before/after work samples with consent.

    Deliverable: A pilot lesson, exercise and feedback summary.

    Check: Assess learners against the rubric rather than satisfaction alone.

  3. Week 3

    Create the learning materials

    • •Revise the curriculum around pilot misunderstandings; keep each lesson focused on one outcome.
    • •Produce captions, accessible worksheets, answer explanations and an example final project.
    • •Verify sources, licensing and exercises; test access on a phone and desktop.

    Deliverable: A short course with worksheets, captions and assessments.

    Check: A tester can access materials and complete exercises without missing instructions.

  4. Week 4

    Launch and support learners

    • •Publish a page stating prerequisites, curriculum, support boundaries and realistic outcomes.
    • •Share a useful sample lesson and use genuine deadlines only when enrolment really closes.
    • •Review completion and assessment results; update lessons where learners consistently struggle.

    Deliverable: A course page, onboarding message and improvement plan.

    Check: Track enrolment, completion and demonstrated skill; avoid earnings guarantees.

Example deliverable

A 4-module mini-course with worksheets and a final project.

Pricing & validation

Live cohorts usually command more than self-paced recordings. Test with a pilot price.

Pre-sell a pilot cohort to at least 5 students before building recordings.

Marketing & launch plan

  • •Host a free workshop on one module
  • •Share student wins (with permission)
  • •Open enrolment with a deadline

Resources

Prompts & templates

Outcome-first curriculum

Design a short course for [learner profile] to demonstrate [specific skill]. Prerequisites: [prerequisites]. My verified expertise: [expertise]. Return four modules with learning outcomes, worked examples, practice tasks and a final assessment rubric. Keep within [time budget] and flag topics requiring expert review.

Lesson and worked example

Write a [duration]-minute lesson on [topic] using these verified sources: [sources]. Structure it as explanation, worked example, guided practice and independent task. Include likely misconceptions, plain-language definitions and caption-friendly narration. Mark unverified statements.

Worksheet and assessment

Create an accessible worksheet for [learning outcome]. Include instructions, a partially completed example, a practice task and a rubric with observable criteria. Provide a separate answer guide explaining reasoning. Do not grade based on learner background or personal characteristics.

Pilot feedback synthesis

Review these anonymised pilot notes and learner work: [notes]. Group misconceptions and missing prerequisites, distinguish preferences from learning obstacles, and suggest specific lesson changes. Link each change to evidence and propose a follow-up assessment to check learning.
