Got an online course that isn’t selling? Or are you looking to create a course sometime soon?

After all your hard work building an online course, the last thing you want is for visitors to land on your sales page and think “that's not worth it”, close the tab and never return.

Instead, you want visitors to immediately grasp the value of your course and see that it’s worth the investment. As a marketer, this means you want to increase the perceived value of your online course in as many ways you can.

Well, here are 6 ways that you can quickly raise the perception of value for your online course.

One of the most potent forms of marketing for online courses is word-of-mouth referrals.

It doesn’t matter how many adverts you pay for, guest posts you publish or webinars you run, your potential customers want to know what someone else thinks about your online course before they buy.

A good marketer knows that once you’ve hooked a potential customer and they want your product, you need to remove all their excuses or reasons why they won’t buy.

And often their very last objections can be cured with testimonials.

Testimonials are your way of tapping into word-of-mouth marketing by providing a different voice to your own that can step in and whisk away a customer’s concerns just as their purchase anxiety starts to flare up.

But how can you capture such testimonials when you’re just starting out? Well, let’s look at 5 quick testimonial capture hacks you can deploy to get rave reviews early and send sales through the roof!

Have you ever signed up for a free download or trial that promised big benefits, but completely under delivered?

Or worse yet, the whole thing turned out to be just a thinly disguised sales pitch?

You’ve been burned before so you can't really trust a website screaming “download this free awesome thing!” is actually going to deliver, right?

Well, your own visitors probably feel the same.

To be a successful marketer in the current digital climate, you need to understand that your visitors are just as skeptical as you are.

To avoid stinking of desperation and false promises, there’s another type of content marketing you can use to earn your visitor’s trust, leave them hungry for your content, and eager to hand over their email address.

Logos.

Unfortunately, this is what the process of starting an online business often looks like:

But you never got to step 4 because you’re still looking at logo designs and getting jealous of someone else’s, aren’t you?
