Most projects take between six and twelve weeks, depending on the scope and how much content you already have prepared. A simple five-module course with existing slide decks can be completed in as few as four weeks. A comprehensive certification program with 30 or more video lessons, workbooks, and a full marketing launch typically requires ten to twelve weeks. During our initial discovery call, we provide a detailed timeline tailored to your specific project so there are no surprises along the way.
Frequently asked questions about our course services
We have compiled the questions we hear most often from prospective clients. If your question is not listed here, do not hesitate to reach out directly.
General questions
Not at all. While on-camera instruction can build trust and connection with your audience, we understand that not everyone is comfortable in front of a lens. We offer several alternatives, including screen-recording with voice-over narration, animated explainer videos, slide-based presentations with professional audio, and even AI-assisted avatar presentations. Many of our most successful courses use a blend of formats to keep content engaging without requiring the instructor to be on screen for every lesson.
The best platform depends on your goals, budget, and technical comfort level. For solo creators looking for simplicity, we often recommend Teachable or Thinkific because of their intuitive interfaces and built-in payment processing. For creators who want a more integrated business suite with email marketing and funnels, Kajabi is an excellent choice. If you already have a WordPress site and want full control, LearnDash paired with WooCommerce gives you maximum flexibility. We evaluate your situation during the discovery phase and present a recommendation with a clear rationale.
Absolutely. Course optimization is one of our most requested services. We perform a thorough audit of your existing course, examining everything from curriculum structure and video quality to your sales page copy and email sequences. Common issues we uncover include unclear learning outcomes, a confusing module sequence, a weak call to action on the sales page, or an email funnel that does not adequately nurture leads. After the audit, we deliver a prioritized action plan and can implement the changes for you if desired.
Our Starter package begins at $2,500 for creators who have most of their content ready and need production polish and platform setup. The Professional package, which includes full curriculum design, up to 30 edited video lessons, and a marketing launch plan, is $6,500. For larger or more complex projects, we offer custom Enterprise pricing. Every engagement starts with a free 30-minute strategy call so we can understand your needs and provide an accurate quote before any commitment is made.
Yes. Every package includes a post-launch support period (30 days for Starter, 60 days for Professional, and ongoing for Enterprise). During this time, we monitor platform performance, troubleshoot any technical issues, review student feedback, and help you make quick adjustments. After the support period ends, you can purchase monthly retainer support or book one-off consulting sessions as needed. Many of our clients continue working with us on a retainer basis to optimize their funnels and launch new courses over time.
Yes, one hundred percent. Once the project is complete and payment is finalized, all deliverables — including video files, graphics, written content, and source files — are transferred to you with full intellectual property rights. We retain no ownership or licensing claims. You are free to use, modify, and distribute the materials however you see fit. We do ask for permission to feature your project in our portfolio, but that is entirely optional and has no bearing on your ownership.
We support both models. For self-paced courses, we focus on creating evergreen content that students can access at any time. For live cohort-based programs, we help you design the session structure, set up webinar or video conferencing integrations, create participant guides, and build the enrollment and scheduling systems. We can also help you develop a hybrid model where core content is self-paced but supplemented with live group coaching calls, Q&A sessions, or community discussion forums.
We have worked across a wide range of industries, including health and wellness, technology and software development, creative arts, business coaching, personal finance, culinary arts, and academic tutoring. Our instructional design methodology is subject-agnostic, meaning we adapt our process to fit any topic. What matters most is that you have genuine expertise and a passion for teaching. We bring the course-building and marketing skills; you bring the knowledge.
Understanding our process
We know that investing in a course creation service is a significant decision, and transparency is important to us. Here is a brief overview of how a typical engagement unfolds so you know exactly what to expect at every stage.
Step 1 — Discovery call. We start with a complimentary 30-minute video call where we learn about your expertise, your target audience, and your goals. This is a no-pressure conversation designed to determine whether we are a good fit for each other.
Step 2 — Proposal and agreement. Based on the discovery call, we prepare a detailed proposal outlining deliverables, timelines, and pricing. Once you approve, we send a service agreement and collect a deposit to reserve your spot in our production schedule.
Step 3 — Content development. Our instructional designers work with you to build the curriculum, write scripts, and plan visual assets. You review and approve each module outline before we move into production.
Step 4 — Production and editing. We produce video, audio, graphics, and downloadable resources. You receive drafts for feedback, and we incorporate your revisions until everything meets your standards.
Step 5 — Platform setup and launch. We configure your LMS, upload all content, test every user flow, and execute your marketing launch plan. On launch day, we are standing by to handle any issues in real time.
Step 6 — Post-launch optimization. After launch, we review analytics, gather student feedback, and recommend improvements to increase completion rates and revenue.
