904: Access Ally: Launch Your Market Product Successfully and Grow Your Online Business With Nathalie Lussier

Are you struggling to scale your online business? Most oftentimes, even though coaches and course creators have the skills and desire to build a course in a certain area of expertise. But they don’t understand what people are willing to pay for or what they want for free. This lack of understanding affects the growth of the business. So what changes you’ll need to make? Regarding product market fit, you need to know what people say they want, what they actually want, and what you want to create personally. Aligning those three will guarantee a successful launch for your product.

Nathalie Lussier is the founder of Access Ally, a powerful digital course and membership solution for coaches who want to develop their courses, memberships and communities on their terms. She is also the author of the book, “Pre-Sell Your Online Course.” Today, Natalie shares her insights on the importance of product-market fit, the lessons she learned from past failures, and the benefits of running live, cohort-based courses.
