How To Launch Your Program Quickly With These Outsourcing Tips

outsourcing tips

Hey there Corporate Misfit!

We both know that you can’t create your online program on your own as much as you want it to be. Let’s face it, time won’t always be on your side and you have a LOT on your plate.

Every coach and course creator will probably agree to one of these setups when they work alone.

  • You’re working for 10-14 hours a day and even on the weekends!
  • Too many tasks have been piling up and you just can’t seem to scratch the surface.
  • You’ve started to neglect different areas in your life: relationships, health, etc.
  • Facing tasks that you’ve never done on your own and you’re starting to resent your business.

If you find yourself nodding to at least one of these, then you’re probably super close to your breaking point.

This is where outsourcing comes in. We get it though, trusting other people to handle your precious program is just nerve-wracking! 

What if they’ll mess things up right? What if you’ll just be back to square one? Well, truthfully, there are a lot of experienced freelancers out there in the market. 

You’ll just have to be on the lookout for the perfect candidate.

Besides, the major purpose of outsourcing is to help you out and avoid burnout! Yup, you have to avoid this looming shadow at all costs.

But we’re not here to convince you with that, instead, we’re gonna share with you a list of specific areas that you can outsource so you can launch your program faster with returns! 

This way, you’ll have a clearer picture of how to delegate tasks and lighten up your load. In fact, you might just get back your time without compromising the quality of your program!

Here are 10 areas in your program that you can outsource

Research

You might be thinking that you can handle research on your own but a quick Google search won’t just cut it! 

In every business, you’ll have to search for the perfect product to market in a specific niche. As a coach and course creator, you’ll have to do tons of research to ensure that your idea is foolproof.

This ain’t an easy job though and it can cost too much time! You’ll need help from Virtual Assistants to take off some of the load.

Not only that, but VAs specializing in research can also help you collect great sources you might’ve never even thought of before!

Copywriting, Proofreading, Editing

Creating your online course requires a lot of written material. You might have the general idea of what you want to put in your online course but you just can’t seem to put them into words!

With professional writers out there, you don’t have to worry a lot about grammar, sentence construction, and coherence. 

You just have to provide them with info on what you’d like to “show” so they can write up your desired content. 

They can provide you compelling copies and also save much of your time!

Alongside this, if you enjoy the writing process, having a new set of eyes to proofread your work can also be extremely helpful.

Think of them as beta students that can view your online course meticulously. This way you can greatly improve your content!

Content Repurposing and Development

If you want to grow your online brand, you’ll definitely have to put a lot of content out there. And sometimes, you actually have them already.

Maybe you’ve got a podcast, a vlog, or other archived posts that you want to repurpose to fit your brand. 

This will help you reach a lot of audiences and establish your authority in the niche. You can recreate them into e-books, articles, and even courses!

The downside, however, is that it’s incredibly time-consuming to do. You’ll have to edit out certain parts, improve grammar and structure, prettify your format through design, and everything in between!

You can instead outsource this to someone so you won’t get bogged down by repurposing them and focus on what you want to create next.

Course Design

Freelancers that specializes in course design can help you organize and design your learning material to your target audience. 

These people are already veterans in the market and may have even composed their own online course material out there! Having a course designer will guide you through the ropes in launching your online program if you’re often lost in the process.

Maybe you’re trying a new framework for your online course and you don’t know where to start. With a course designer, the course creation process will run smoothly for you!

Graphic Design

Having attractive graphics in your program is a must-have! Afterall, a 2020 survey stated that visual content is 49% more important when it comes to creating online content as opposed to previous years. 

Graphic design includes logos, templates for your courses, animation, e-book designs, and social media graphics. 

It’s true that you can learn to do this yourself, and it’s enjoyable to create as well! However, with freelance graphic designers, you won’t worry a lot about the design process since they know how to deliver them quickly; couple that with their creativity and you’ll get amazing results.

You just have to let them know what style you want that’s perfect for your brand!

Video Editing

Like graphic design, video editing is also a major factor in play when you’re launching an online program. Especially that 95% of the learners retain a message from a video compared to 10% when reading it. 

Let’s face it, making videos are no joke and even if you know the basics, most of the time that just doesn’t cut it if you want high quality!

Most people are visual learners and having beautiful and easy to follow videos on hand will also increase your engagement.

So while you’re at it, invest in the right video editor to bring to life your vision!

Search Engine Optimization

Ah yes, SEO. Every digital native knows that SEO is an essential factor in making your business easy to find in the market. It’s not something you can just learn through online articles though.

SEO specialists have vigorously learned the inner workings of websites and how to optimize them to make your brand visible. 

Contrary to popular belief, SEO isn’t a one-way street! It includes optimizing your pages, social media, products, website maintenance, and everything in between!

If you’re gonna do SEO on your own, you might just find yourself frustrated in learning the ropes of this area.

You’ll definitely need the help of a professional in this department!

Online Ads

Another subset that SEO specialists do is with your ad campaigns. Marketing your online course is something you should invest in. After all, who would even reach your program if nobody has seen it in the first place.

Once you have someone that focuses solely on the digital marketing side of your program you’ll see that everything’s running smoothly!

Email Marketing

Like we’ve said before there’s “money on the list!” and your email marketing is one of the bloodlines of your business. Building your email list is a highly valuable asset as you can continuously promote your brand as well as upcoming products to them.

This is a great access line from you to your prospect customers because they don’t necessarily have to visit your website all the time. Instead, you’re the one who’s reaching out to them!

Outsource this part of your program so you’ll only have to focus on building your material.

Social Media Marketing

This is by far one of the most important marketing strategies that you should nurture in your business! Aside from other marketing campaigns, social media is obviously where your future customers are.

Aside from promoting your brand and courses, social media helps you connect with other like-minded people that can support your business growth.

You can also be able to share testimonials from real customers to bring credibility. 

Above all else, social media allows you to reach a wider audience and build a community where you can curate your content! 

This is a go-to marketing strategy and you’ll definitely have to make sure that your social media is managed well. 

With a social media manager, they can help create social media content from graphics to videos that will fit perfectly with your brand.
