David: Hi everyone, and welcome to this case study. I'm David Vidales from OnlineCourseSecrets.com and today we are joined by Rob Espitia, one of our successful clients, here to share with us how he earned his first $100k in just 28 days after his launch by working with us. Hey Rob, how are you doing?
Rob: Hey David, thank you so much for having me, happy to be here.
David: Thank you man, I really appreciate you being here, sharing how we've helped you and inspiring people and really sharing this fantastic result that you got. So let's dive in, first of all, can you tell us a bit about yourself and your business? Who is it that you help and what do you help them with?
Rob: Yeah, absolutely. So, my name is Rob Espitia. I'm the co-founder of two different companies, Brand with Video, which is an agency that is, we create short-form content for coaches, consultants, course creators. And we also have an education company, Micro Content Mastery, where we help other videographers scale their business to $10k per month and be able to work remotely all over the world and get clients all over the world. So when I first started working with David, I just had the agency. So that's why I'm just speaking on this, because before working with David, I had one company, and now after working with David, two companies that have had a lot of successful impact because of working with David. So Micro Content mastery was the company that we created afterwards. And it just happened last July here that we crossed our one year anniversary for our education company.
David: Awesome.
Rob: I'm very very excited. but yeah, that's a little bit, here in Houston, Texas, and you can see the Texas pillow back there. I'm here in Houston, Texas with my brother. We like going to Alphaland, like working out and making content man. So I'm very happy to be here, and hopefully this helps inspire somebody's situation out there that if someone like me can get this result by just following the program, by just following Step by Step, then whoever's watching, I believe they can as well.
David: Awesome, thanks man. Let's take it from the beginning. Where were you in your business, like, revenue wise, etc, when we met, and we started talking together? What were you struggling with and kind of where were you at when we first met?
Rob: Yeah, absolutely. So when we first started working together, I would say the big one was just a lot of things on the marketing side and a lot of things on the offer side, and a lot of things on the understanding, like my niche. So before working with you, I already had some successful testimonials in terms of client will work, but I didn't know exactly how to craft my offer, who my offer was for, and then just one of the things that I had big, big struggles, was like knowing whatās delivered to them, like, when they would share their problems with me, I wouldnāt be able to interpret it into how to create a solution. If anything, I would say thatās one of the biggest helps that I got working with you was being able to find and see and label the problem that the marketplace has. That way, I can help create a solution for them later.
David: So what made you want to start working together with us?
What kind, you know, pushed you over the edge to kind of go for it?
Rob: Yeah, absolutely, so I had been seeing some of your content online already, David, especially in your Facebook group. Itās a large Facebook group as well, so Iām sure Iām not the only person whoās part of it whoās been seeing it, yeah man, just been seeing your Facebook posts and just something about the content. I was like, this guy knows what it is. And also, for whatever itās worth. I like the concept of seeing success stories and not necessarily having to have all these crazy views and all these things. So just based on your content and what you were putting out, even though itās not crazy influencer numbers, I knew what you were doing in business, and I felt very similar to that in terms of my Facebook post arenāt going viral and all these things, but with the right systems, definitely able to monetize that. So thatās kind of what attracted me, your content, your messaging. And once we kind of hopped on the phone together, I was like, yeah, this guy knows what heās talking about for sure.
David: Thanks man, so letās go a bit into more of the details here. What was it that you started doing differently as a result of us working together? What were the biggest shifts for you in terms of understanding how to present your offer? And practically speaking, what did you start doing differently?
Rob: Yeah, so the biggest thing I would say was very much interpreting what questions I would get. So I donāt know if you remember this? I remember this very, very vividly. We were going through just some of the questions that I was getting on my Facebook posts, and I was, you know, what do you think about this? And youāre like, well, when this person says this, this is what I think. What do you think? And it was something that we werenāt even on the same page. I was like, how do you see this thing that I donāt see? Which is essentially like somebodyās raising their hand saying that they need help with something. I thought it was something else. And you were like, actually, this is what I see, what do you see? And then after that, it kind of just opened my mind, and itās been helping me, what I like to believe create amazing, no-brainer offers, because all I do is just try to solve the problems that my clients or students are having. So thatās, like, the biggest one for sure is being able to interpret and get the information out, and then therefore, Iām able to craft the perfect offer for that specific individual. And then, one of the last things too is, you told me this, to reverse engineer the testimonial. I donāt know if you remember sharing that with.. Youāre, like,
David: Yeah, Start with the testimonial
Rob: Start with the testimonial, yeah exactly. So, sorry, I didnāt
mean to butcher that. Now, literally because of that, we have the craziest testimonials because we started at the end with that testimonial in mind. So we have all these stories and we build up these case studies. Just really helped a lot on the foundation side with, like I said, again, the offer and just building testimonials.
David: And us working together, why do you think that worked so well for you guys? You know, this is a fantastic result you have. What was it exactly that you think made it click so well?
Rob: Yeah, I mean, being fully, fully honest, fully transparent, I think there were⦠And perhaps this is why the relationship worked out really well, I believe there was a few things in our business model that we had right. It was just a few things that we didnāt have right that were costing us a lot, Things that you were very good at and things that you could see specifically. And every single time that we hopped on the call, you did not hesitate to let me know. Youāre like, how are we doing with this offer? How are we doing with this thing? So I just think a lot of the times, not a lot of the times, all the time David, you came from the right place. Like, when you put your coaching hat on and you wanted to help, I never felt like you were⦠And this is even in the coaching space, like oftentimes people, thereās egos and stuff involved. You donāt want to exactly tell somebody exactly what to do in a way they donāt want to hear it. So every time that you would share some advice or share a direction, it would just come across right in a way that I was very receptive to. And as somebody who has also other business partners, other male business partners, stuff like that, you can kind of get like that, and every single time that you shared anything with me, its direction or advice or anything like that, it just came across right. And the messaging style, the coaching style was just something that I resonated with, for sure.
David: Awesome
Rob: And then also just very, I want to give credit where credit is due, was able to just build up a little bit of an audience, but I didnāt know what to do with that audience, I was so lost. I had absolutely no idea what to do with that audience. But I was able to build up a little bit. So I do think if somebody who is watching this video and maybe they have a little bit of an audience but they donāt know what to do with it, that could work out for them as well. And I know while we were starting to work together, there were certain moments where I didnāt even have any audience. You know so I know your program, how people get to build up a small audience, build up a launch audience and therefore afterwards a big audience, kind of like your community, huge audience. Those, I would say, are the elements that worked out really well, was the coaching style, for sure, the ability to see what my clients needed, find their problems, give them exactly the offer and exactly what they need. And then the third part was just kind of how to nurture the audience that I was building throughout. We all somewhat have an audience, right, already. So just the audience that I was building throughout the last couple of years but didnāt know what to do with. And after working with you, I knew exactly what to do with it. So thatās what I would credit that as well and just say all those things had a lot to do with it.
David: Awesome, so letās go with the result. You know, $100k in 28 days. What happened? Tell us from the beginning, you launched, can you kind of break it down? The time frame of what that looked like?
Rob: Yeah, let me see, so weāll break down. So, it all started, and Iāll share this. David, you actually were the one that really got me to think about making a program. I just had a service, I just had a done for you service. So you were one of the biggest inspirations to create a program where it was a done with you. Where my agency is still full, just done for you, our agency, my brothers. And so we wanted to do a launch, and then we were able to kind of cultivate a little bit of an audience just through Facebook groups. So nothing crazy. Not like we didnāt run any ads or anything like that. These results, you donāt have to, Iām sure thereās ways you can help people with that, but we didnāt end up running any ads. And we ended up happening was we just made a couple of launch posts. We got people excited about this free presentation, this conversion event, and it ended up just being exactly what people wanted to hear. And the way we were able to nail that down was because I went through all the questions. You helped me go through a lot of these questions and nailed down specifically what it was that people wanted. So I'm like, hey, I'm going to make a free training, or, I have this thing, like, who would want it and what would you want in it? And they literally gave it to me. We created a presentation, and, man, it was like, the hottest thing, I guess, that week or whatever, because we ended up having just a ton of people what I would consider a ton of people want to watch. We filled up the Zoom room within 3 hours before we did the presentation. We sent out the Zoom link out, and we already had 200 people, so, like, hours before we even go live. They were just trying to save their spot, knowing that there would be a replay and that we would be live streaming it. On top of that, we also live streamed it in two other Facebook groups that had about two to 300 people watching live each. So we had, like, about 600 people watching at the peak of it. And then by the end of the presentation, we actually already had some people bought. So it was a pre-launch, so it was a little bit discounted. But you said when you get that money up front, it'll kind of motivate you to finish that program as well and to kind of get those things going. So, within the first hour, we had crossed $10,000. The goal was to do $25,000 within three weeks. By day three, we had done $25,000 already in sales. And by week three, a few days before week three, we already had $95,000. And by day 28, we had crossed $100,000.
David: Thatās so cool, man, again, congrats! This is so, thank you, so inspiring and so cool to hear. So how did that feel? I guess a lot of people looking at this, reading, listening to this, are like whatās the emotions going through you when you launch something like this and you earn your first $10k in less than an hour and then $100k in 28 days? What was going through you?
Rob: Yeah, man, thatās a great question. So it was very new, of course. It was a very new experience. And even having experience running an agency, it was a little bit different for sure. Running a program and doing a pre-launch, it was something Iād never done before. So honestly, throughout all of that stuff, it was very new. But what I will say is it was very exciting and just definitely felt like I had a good support system around me as well. So if I knew what the next question was or whatever challenges I had, I knew kind of who I could reach out to. But it was just very exciting overall, very surreal. I didnāt think it was real until the money hit the bank account. Throughout the entire time, Iām like, this isnāt real. This isnāt real, this isnāt real, and then it was real, and I was like, okay, this is real, cool.
David: How would you say that, you know, learning these things, doing this launch, having these new skill sets, this new understanding of understanding your market, just generally joining the program, how has it changed your life?
Rob: Oh, man, drastically, it changed my life, so I mentioned this myself. My brother, we have two companies. When we started working with you David, we just had our agency. So, by working with you, we birthed another company. Birthed a program, our education company, Micro Content Mastery. So that was just number one. Thatās an irreversible step. Itās something that can never be undone, can never be taken back, God willing. And so thatās been life changing. A whole new company. A six-figure launch, that definitely has been insane. And, one of the things in the entrepreneurial world, you donāt get celebrated very often. I know that they have the comma club awards and all the stuff, and Iām very appreciative that throughout this interview. Your audience, David, is celebrating this result. But in the entrepreneurial world, people donāt celebrate things as much. So itās just one of those accomplishments that I know makes me feel better when I go to sleep at night, and even if itās not $100k every single month, just knowing that that was something that was in our control based on our skill sets and the things that we learned, thatās life changing, itās game changing. And thatās why itās been a little bit of time since that launch. And thatās why Iām just like, very, very happy to just report whatās been going on and how the company has been going, because, again, itās been very life-changing. So it birthed a whole new company, a whole new program, whole new testimonials, whole new side of business that I never saw before. And like I said, irreversible, canāt undo it, canāt take those steps back now.
David: Where are your businesses right now in terms of revenue? What are you currently at?
Rob: Yeah, absolutely, like I said earlier, definitely credit the things that Iāve learned in the program. And also, I have a fantastic team. I work with my brothers and, David, I know youāve seen them all in the group in the program and everything, and you were always kind to give everybody in my team attention, which is something that I appreciate and never forgot as well. But on the agency side, which is our highest or higher revenue consistently revenue company, we do about $50,000 per month. And then on the education company right now, weāre averaging about $30,000 to $40,000 per month.
David: Fantastic, thatās so good! So happy for you guys, itās great.
Rob: Thank you, David. Thank you so much man. Weāre very appreciative. Weāre very grateful.
David: Yeah, of course, and itās always been a pleasure to work with you. So I just have two more questions here. The first one would be, what do you think would have happened if we hadnāt stated working together and you hadnāt learned these new ways of interpreting your market, etc? What do you think would have happened if we hadnāt worked together?
Rob: Yeah, absolutely, one thing Iāll say for sure is I donāt know when the launch would have happened, because it was by working with your program that I even had the thought of doing. A launch, of doing something, because you knew this David, when we first started working, I was like, I see the value of what this could do on my agency as well. Even though you help people with programs and everything, and you saw the value in what we could have done with our program, I came to you just saying, hey I have an agency, and this is what weāre doing. So man, the education company, who knows when that would have happened? Iād like to believe it would have happened eventually, but really, maybe not, exactly. It wouldnāt have happened, so very grateful. That $100k month wouldnāt have happened for sure. It was because of the program that we launched, a program that we knew what to do with the information that we got. And that more importantly, you also very much inspired me to do a pre-launch. Youāre like, get the cash up front, get the sales, get the sales. And itāll motivate you to finish the program and to do all those things. So you know, all those words David, they were ringing in my head throughout all that time.
David: And how did that work out? Because maybe someone is watching this and feeling nervous, but how did the program end up, right?
Rob: It ended up working just perfect. It was just perfect. Like I said, the content in and of itself is amazing. So the content in the program but more than the content, really, it was the support. It was the weekly accountability. Yes, the accountability. And just like when I had a question, I could just hop in the Zoom room and you would literally just go through with me, just like how you would go through every single other person and you would go as long as everybody had questions. Thatās something that I took that style from as well. So in our program, we did the same thing. When we do these calls, weāll stay like, if people still have questions, we will help everyone. And you were just an example of one of the first examples that I saw of people doing that.
David: Okay man, so last question here. So some people watching this, listening to this, they might be here on the fence of starting to work with us. They might be thinking about it, but theyāre not quite sure. Theyāre looking at this to see what kind of results people get by working with us. So what would you say to someone that is thinking about working with us, but theyāre right there on the fence, and theyāre not entire sure yet? What would you say to them?
Rob: Yeah, man, absolutely. I would just tell them to get over the fence. Like, get over the fence. And I say this not as somebody whoās trying to tell people what to do, but just as somebody who was on the fence. I can relate, I understand, I was one the fence. And if it wasnāt for David consistently saying, you got to launch this program, you got to do this thing. Who knows where, that wouldnāt have happened. So I would just tell, get off the fence. You only know what the program is going to be like once youāre inside, so just join inside. And, as long as you do the work, thereās just no way youāre not going to get your ROI. Thereās just no way youāre not going to get the result. And thereās no way with the support and the community and the content, thereās no way that youāre just not going to be better from it. I know, certainly, itās amazing that I got this result, but even the six-figure month, that result in and of itself is separate from other things that weāve gotten from the program. Again, like the skills sets that continue to make us money today, the ability to read and perceive what clients are looking for today. And no matter what offers I make, no matter what businesses I create, a lot of those foundational skills, theyāve just made me better. So, guys, not only just for the program, but just all the other things by doing the work and learning and going through the process, youāre going to get, just get over that fence and join the program for sure. You wonāt regret it.
David: Awesome. Thanks, man. Thanks for joining and sharing your story with us. I appreciate it.
Rob: Absolutely, thank you David, thank you!
How Alex Pfeffer Earned His First $10,000 in 34 Days By Working With Us

Alex Pfeffer
Transcription
David: Hey everyone, this is David from OnlineCourseSecrets.com and today Iām joined by one of our successful clients, Alex Pfeffer, here to share with us how heā¦hey, how youāre doing man? So Alex is here to share with us how he earned his first %10k in just 34 days by working together with us. So thanks for coming on.
Alex: Yeah, thank you for having me.
David: Yeah, of course man, my pleasure. So letās dive in, first maybe you can just tell us a bit about yourself and your business. Who is it that you help, and what is it that you do for them?
Alex: So my name is Alex Pfeffer. Iām a composer, and I specialized in trailer music and video games music. And I also started offering courses, and I just felt like I wanted to scale my business a little bit more. So I got in contact with David and he helped me, basically to just scaling my business and get to a better result.
David: So where were you exactly before we started working together? What were you struggling with?
Alex: Yeah, so basically the thing is I got lost a little bit in doing work, composing music, composing work myself, but also building courses. And I had, like, the feeling to advance or to scale the business, I just had to do more courses. And because the sales declined a little bit after the first initial point, so it was very hard to scale, otherwise I felt I would have had to clone myself. So I was kind of, like, missing the right or the right strategy was missing, to just scale my business, which you basically helped me with.
David: And what was it aboutā¦Why did you decide to star working with us and with me rather than someone else? What was it that kind of made that decisions simpler for you to go with us?
Alex: Yeah. So, after all these years, when you start writing music. When you write music for all these companies. I always felt that in the very beginning I started to give guitar lessons. So you feel pretty lonely in the studio, you know, after a while, when you just work on video games, you write back and forth a few emails and sometimes youāre implemented in a few meetings. But in a sense, I just missed kind of like this entire educational thing. And doing courses was a good step back into this direction, but there was still more missing to kind of like combining this all. And as I said before, I got kind of lost into creating more courses, and more courses and had, how do you say this? Pressure on myself to create, if you donāt do more courses, then how should this end? Where can I go from here? So thatās why I was really happy to get with you and working on the program and finding a strategy that basically combines it all and then helps me to scale the business further and further.
David: So if I head you correctly, it was basically this philosophy that we had to minimize products and just focus on one, creating a better program. Was that the main reason?
Alex: Yes, definitely.
David: So what did we start doing differently then, as a result of working together? Can you tell us a bit about the process, what you stopped doing and what we started doing instead?
Alex: So basically, first you took a look at what Iām doing right now that I was doing all these courses and you already could kind of like, hear that I kind of got a little but lost in the details, and so but the most important step for me was to just cleaning that up and put it all together. And this what four eyes or four ears always see more than just putting me in the right direction. And saying like, okay, we just combine that in one program and combining not just, this is also very hard when you do courses. You just assume somebody who is like 20% experience, somebody has 80% experience in some topic, but you can never do it right for everyone. And you cannot kind of individualize the journey for everyone. And a big part of that is doing like, the weekly calls, the live streams that Iām also offering in the program, but also, most important, the live sessions. And this is, as I found out, in my niche, in my business, or in my brand of the audio industry, is something that is entirely missing. Iām not really sure , I heard from people that I am like somebody of the very few who is doing this at all. So there are people out there never heard of this, what Iām doing right now.
David: Would you say this one of the main things that unlocked this for you? That helped you to kind of move forward here, that you changed the offer? Is there anything else specifically you think was the main reason why you were able to get this result?
Alex: Yeah, I think it was the perspective change, basically. I knew that I already did lots of things right be getting into the courses and doing the educational stuff and all that, but the most important thing was to, just as you pointed out, doing these live sessions and taking people by the hand. And itās a little bit like, everybody basically knows what they have to do. In a sense, when it comes to our audio world, itās pretty difficult. People know that they somehow have to promote, and market themselves, but nobody knows how to do it. But in a sense, everybody knows what necessary. But itās a little bit like this fitness program, you tell somebody to do 100 push ups and do this for like a 365 days to get ripped, but then they donāt know how to do this. And this is very good that we implemented, for example, these one-on-one calls, that thereās somebody who can take the people by the hand and show them how to get closer to their goal.
David: Yeah. We really elevated the offer. So then let me ask you then, as a result of us working together, what was the outcome for you?
Alex: Yeah, so basically I reached the $10k in 34 days. So I was like a third faster, how do you say, 60% faster than you promised. So first of all, thank you for that. That was really great to see. And of course, I was, like, skeptical at first. Itās like this typical psychological hurdle that we have because I offer the program way more expensive, than I do my courses.
David: We just smashed through that limiting belief.
Alex: And I can already tell that after, I donāt remember exactly if it has been, like a full month right now. So basically the next 30 days, I still have four spots left for the next offer, which was raised from $997 to $1997.
David: Yeah, so youāre continuing to make sales and we are increasing the price.
Alex: Yes
David: How did it feel to reach that $10k point for you?
Alex: How did it feel? Definitely awesome! It kind of like, made life a little bit easier, of course. There was always lots of pressure because you have to come up with new courses, new products, and blah, blah, blah. But also weāre still relying on getting hired as a music composer to just get it all done. And I just remember when I had the first two or three calls on that day, and somebody said, that sounds very interesting, letās get to it. I was just like, getting out with a dog and taking a walk for just one hour, and saying like, okay, I can finally enjoy my life a little bit more.
David: So how has the program changed your life? Can you tell us a bit about it, how has it affected other areas of your life?
Alex: Yeah, so basically there is a lot less pressure on me. This is basically the main point. There is a lot less pressure. You can enjoy family life, you can take off the weekends, which I find very important to just recharge my batteries. Iām a lot into mental health and well-being and all that stuff, which is also part of my program, that Iām kind of like teaching. But sometimes there is so much pressure, you just sit there and see your own lessons. Youāre like, how Iām going to solve this? And of course, when there is a lot of pressure taken from you by somebody leading you to the right direction, itās worth a lot, definitely.
David: Where would you say you would be now if you hadnāt taken action and us started working together?
Alex: Oh, man, I seriously donāt want to think about this because there has been, of course, some situations, especially as I can say, I have a disabled child and if you just have some days off working and then of course, sometimes you get into struggle, for example, putting the money aside that you for example, need for taxes and all that stuff. So sometimes it can just happen that you just try to hit the deadline, but then you have to put more pressure and more work, maybe coming up with an entire new course that you didnāt have in mind doing. So you constantly had to do the pressure and had to keep that pressure upright and yeah. So basically this is kind of like, the future looks a lot brighter right now.
David: Awesome man, yeah, Iām so happy for you, itās awesome. So last questions here. So if thereās someone watching this and theyāre thinking about signing up as well, working together with us, working together with me, what would you say to them?
Alex: Yeah, so I would definitely say do it. There is a lot of work involved that you do, because nothing comes from nothing. You just have to invest the work. But if you invest the work and if you trust the progress that David is offering you, and all the steps and of course trusting him and what heās coming up and what plan he has for you, then you definitely meet this goal within these first 90 days. And what I also want to add, I mean this is almost like an offer than would be a little bit stupid to reject because he offers to continue with you just in case if it doesnāt happen within these 90 days. So there is nothing that you can kind of risk or lose.
David: Exactly, yeah, we have that guarantee. Awesome, thanks so much Alex. Thanks for coming on and sharing.
Alex: Thanks so much.
David: Inspiring everyone whoās listening. Awesome, thanks!
Alex: Thank you so much David, keep on rocking!
David: You too man!

Transcription
David: Hi everyone. David here from OnlineCourseSecrets.com. And today we are joined by one of our successful clients, Jean Dorff, thatās going to share how he earned his first $10k in just 13 days. So thank you for coming on Jean, how are you?Ā
Jean: Hey, yeah, welcome. Thank you. Thank you for having me.Ā
David: Pleasure is all mine man. So letās dive in. Maybe you can tell us a bit about yourself, your business, who you help, and what you do?Ā
Jean: Yeah, my name is Jean Dorff. I have a program called The Empowering Story. I help mostly women moving forward after sexual abuse. And what we do is we help them to own their story of abuse and then publish it as a book in 90 days or less.Ā
David: Yeah, thatās such a cool thing. What were you struggling with before we got started? What was the main issue for you when we started talking?
Jean: Yeah, actually, there were two. First one was actually a really good definition of what is really the group that you help, right? It sounds like I had first all women that are abused, which sounds really good, good enough at that time. I worked with that for years. But you and I actually felt that it should be actually a little bit more precise, more to people who are willing to take action. They really want to overcome what they are dealing with. So thatās one, that could be a general statement, but that was definitely true for me. And the second one was actually bring it out in such way that it becomes an attractive offer for people that they couldnāt pass by. So those are the two areas, I think, if I would say it in general terms that we worked on mostly.Ā
David: Yeah. So when we were talking, when we were having our first call there, what made you want to move forward with me as opposed to someone else? Why did you start working with us?
Jean: I could be overcomplimentary here, but there were actually two things. Let me first start with myself. I started to discover that probably a lot of good programs are out there, and it is also following through with what you do yourself. And I saw that I lacked on that part. The other thing that I noticed in you is that you were willing. That was a feeling that I had. But now I know itās true that you would go on besides sending you a bunch of video or opening some sort of a coaching portal, and you get a few calls and you donāt let go until itās finished. Whether that is in 13 days or is in maybe, I donāt know, 300 days, that feeling that I had. And thirdly, what I really needed, I needed literally, how you call it yourself, I really needed a Step-by-Step approach. I really needed to figure out what was the little step that I was missing. Because if one link is missing, the whole castle is not working, so to speak. That was a promise at that time. I just believed you.Ā
David: Yeah. Awesome. What were you going to say?
Jean: No, that was convincing enough. And the rest is a little bit of history. Following through yourself with what the program offers. But someone needs to also drive, I mean, I needed a little bit of someone who would say, hey, you promised to do this.Ā
David: Kicking your butt a bit?
Jean: Kicking my butt a little bit, yeah. Coaches, yeah, go ahead.
David: No, go ahead you.
Jean: No, specifically, coaches sometimes think that they donāt need it because itās their work to help other people to motivate. So they donāt always see that they need some motivation.Ā
David: Yeah, I have the same thing, I work with a coach as well thatās kicking my butt. So we are all on own journey. So what would you say was the main thing we started doing differently as a result of this? What was the big shift for you in terms of the actions you were taking when you joined the program?Ā
Jean: Yeah, I got a lot of clarity that no matter how well you think that you have defined your target group or your niche itās always worthwhile to have strong and deep conversations about it. Set aside a little bit your own thinking, like I know my market best. Itās actually really nice to have a good outside perspective. But I think if I had to on hindsight see the biggest shift was defining your irresistible offer. Thatās how itās called in your program. You could call it something different, but thatās for me the biggest shift. But it could not have been irresistible offer if we didnāt do the pre-work or the pre-discussions that we had. Now, clearly, I was already pretty deep in the niche and what I was doing already, itās just for some reason, had to be refined and come together to make something really attractive here.Ā
David: Yeah, because you had already written a book. You had published a book, and we just needed to kind of put the puzzle pieces together there for how to offer that as well, right?Ā
Jean: Yeah. Not to say that with my background, that I donāt think if you donāt have that, that all the things you offer wouldnāt work. But obviously that helped a lot. But also there was a little bit more internal resistance thinking that I know it already if you have more experience. So sometimes itās nicer, I think, to have a completely unwritten page and then go into it, yeah.
David: So why do you think the program worked so well for you? What do you think started getting result from this?Ā
Jean: Well, for me, actually. Truly, there are, again, two things. It is the personal trust that I have in you, but also the connection. It feels very personal. I met over time quite a bit of your clients, but I still have the feeling that Iām the only one and the most important one. Thatās what I always like to think, whether itās true or not. But I believe it, which is good enough. But itās a funny way of saying the personal investment that you make and really truly to try to understand the market that Iām working with made a huge difference. Now, obviously, you also have a lot of knowledge and experience with dealing with these things. Just saying the things slightly different specifically in the sales process has been instrumental as well. Plus, you mentioned, en passant, thatās French, by the way. But you mentioned en passant, that you also work with a coach. But for me, someone who let himself inform also, what are the trends, for instance, on Facebook and social media? I think thatās important too, because even in the whole duration of the program that Iām now with you, weāre not talking about the first 13 days, but now with you, we made some switches that you could say, hey, why is it different now than three months ago? Itās always as you say, we do what we know now. And the market moves very fast in these types of things, whether itās technology, whether itās things that we find out, I think thatās important. And to have that feeling that you work with someone that is always, at least in my opinion, up to par with whatās going on and the trends that are going on, that I think that is very invaluable almost, if youāre doing what we are doing.Ā
David: Yeah. So as a result of us working together, what was the outcome for you?Ā
Jean: Well, the outcome was, you know, when we when we landed on, you know, saying, its women moving forward after sexual abuse, that was one component of it. And then you helped me to figure out that my most important part was actually, you know, for them owning their story. Thatās not the words we used at the beginning, but thatās what it comes out. So the more technical term is reforming and transforming the narrative. But that sounds really awful in a marketing sentence. So you helped me to make that owning your story, which sounds a little bit more attractive, and then to make that a really strong punchline, and saying, I help you to do that and publish it in a book, which really alludes to the story, tell your story in a book. I think that makes the big difference. And literally, after announcing that, I got to the results that you were mentioning, almost immediately.Ā
David: So what were those results in financial numbers? What did we reach?
Jean: $10k, a little bit over it.Ā
David: Yeah. And the time frame?Ā
Jean: It was in less than two weeks. Yeah. That was amazing actually.Ā
David: How did that feel?Ā
Jean: Horrible.Ā
David: Must have been awfulā¦
Jean: Did not know what to do with⦠I think Iāve always worked with that notion. And it sounds awful if this is the first time that you hear it, you sell first and then you create it. But now that you have real clients behind you, expecting big things from you, it makes you work. And again, it was not unfamiliar work, but some of these components, the 90 days, the other things, it was not all really there, which is really okay. And you helped me to be confident in that. Weekly, we worked through it while I was working with those clients that we sold, to make sure that we actually could deliver as well. So I did not have the mentality for, I need to have everything ready before I could go out there. That I think that helped already. But you definitely re-iterated, how important it is to keep having that in front of your mind, that you donāt have to have it to begin with.Ā
David: Yeah. So how would you say the program has changed your life? How has this positively affected you, us working together?Ā
Jean: Well, for me, it literally became a natural habit to be at least once a week in contact with you and a group of people that are doing this. It often feels like a lonely battle to be out there. Specifically, if you have what you call a mission-driven coaching business. It feels sometimes lonely. Not every friend and family understands what you are doing. You have more disappointments than anything else. So to have someone that believes in you but actually can back it up with good results I mean that for me is truly invaluable. I consider you now as a friend, and I would not say that I impacted life, I truly think that we impacted life already. You helped me with the business structure. I really think we are only at the beginning of this adventure. We want to make it super sustainable also to be fair and in open it still goes a little bit up and down but I think we are definitely heading in the absolute right direction. I see where we are today. Thatās just amazing. So itās more than just a marketing program for me. It sounds a little bit mushy, but itās true that this personal connection we typically donāt have colleagues. Me coming from a corporate world is something that you kind of miss and you speak mor or less the same lingo, even if you are in completely different segments. If you meet another colleague in your coaching program or your weekly group, or itās actually four times if you really want to be fanatic.Ā
David: Yeah. Well, at least now you have clients as your colleagues, right?
Jean: Yeah. With some of them, I even hang out offline and help them through their stuff. They might have a little bit technical issues or coaching issues, or we send each other messages. We do, itās actually a strange thing, but it really happens, and itās very natural, itās nothing.Ā
David: Yeah. So where do you think you would be today, if you hadnāt joined the program, if you hadnāt taken action and signed up?Ā
Jean: I probably would have tried another half a dozen things and make some smaller investments here and there and see if that will work, and that will work. So I do in all fairness took for myself the decision, okay, I just need to focus on one. It might be the wrong one, but Iām putting all my beliefs on that one. I think thatās a general mindshift that people need to have, to stick for a longer time to wanting prove to yourself go for it, that it really doesnāt work and itās not. So I probably would be still dabbling around, that makes sense.
David: Wasted time?
Jean: Wasted time, had some small wins here, and then some small⦠so tried something out and I truly think that I would not put it all on you. But it is definitely the discussions that we had together that it is very clear vision right now.Ā
David: Yeah.
Jean: Because of that, you get more insights and then you always offer a place where you can bounce it off and then we sharpen it a little bit. And I think that for me is, I would probably not be here.Ā
David: Yeah.
Jean: I would probably be okay, but not where I am. Not even close.Ā
David: So my final question here for you is, if there is someone watching this and they are thinking about signing up as well, but theyāre on the fence, what would you say to them?Ā
Jean: Yeah, I would definitely look at yourself if you have not done that, say itās the actions and the results that speak. Itās not what you think that you are capable of, right? Here they go, that could be great. Itās the action that speak. And if the results are not there, then I would do the same two things as I did, make a good decision, work with one, and if I can advise you one, it would be David. Itās that simple. And I do think that the program is excellent. Specifically, because itās a constant evolvement that you can follow. You allow us to evolve. But David also will make 100% sure that you will get the results and stay motivated on every detail. Whether you get stuck on simply not knowing how a Facebook group is working, which I always think itās amazing that you do that, or whether you want to have a more strategic discussion about where it takes you. And I think to find someone that can span all these things. I think itās really unique, to be very honest. Iāve been in business for a long time, corporate and on my own. And I must honestly say I havenāt seen that a lot, if at all, that would be my thing.Ā
David: Yeah. Thank you so much Jean. Yeah, thank you so much for coming on and sharing, and with that, weāre going to say goodbye and yeah. Thanks again man. I really appreciate it.
Jean: Well, thank you David, for all you did for us and me.Ā
David: Awesome. Thank you!

Hey guys, my name is Jase Stuart from the Better Body Academy. I hope you're having a good day. I just wanted to film a quick video here for someone who's become a really trusted coach and friend of mine, David Vidales. This guy is one of the most giving, generous, authentic coaches that I personally have ever come into contact with.
David reached out to me when I joined his free Facebook group, and we had a very basic chat. And at that point in time, I was really stuck. I was in a day job that I call it, really frustrated about the kind of... my desire to want to put more into the world and inspire people to get along on their fitness journey, their transformation journey. But it was ironic that I was myself stuck, and that's about the time that I met David.
So I came in and commenced his program. And from day one, David wasn't one of these coaches that just disappeared, like, paid my money and then gone, vanished. David was there constantly encouraging me along the way. And he has this remarkably gifted talent with simplifying things that I've turned into this crazy, difficult, difficult mountain of confusion.
Dave comes along with his nice calm voice and his beautiful accent. And he just puts it into a linear fashion for you to work through. And this is outlined in his program. So it's very much bang. Do this, do this, do this next, do this next. And for me, that was invaluable, in constructing my online business. Now my business is in advance of around $65,000 per month. So I'm very, very lucky to be well and truly living my dream life.
And it was all kicked off by David being my first ever coach and giving me the basic foundation. So if you're considering working with this guy, what I want to ask is, do you want more online influence? And have you got an idea around potentially a course that you could really teach to the world if you had the right structure and the right platform?
Well, if that's you, I suggest you speak to Dave. Get the nuts and bolts of his program. Get it down pat, stop kind of procrastinating. This is a really strong endorsement of his model. The guy knows what he's talking about. He's an expert and all you need to do if you doubt this, is have a look at the vibe of his free Facebook group. And you can see quite clearly this guy is a man that actually doesn't just talk, he walks the walk. So, fully supporting of Dave. Any questions? Feel free to hit me up.

Hello, my name is Shane Mackey, and I am delighted to have this opportunity to give a video testimonial for David Vidales. Before I start, I'd like to give you a little bit about my background. I come from Ireland and I have been living and teaching in Thailand since 2003.
I'm teaching English as a foreign language, and I have opened my own language school over there. In March of this year 2020, I came home to Ireland for a holiday, and I've been stuck here ever since because of COVID. So my original plan was to go back to Thailand after the holiday and open up new schools all over Thailand.
So since I have been stuck here in Ireland, I have been planning to start online courses for teaching English. And originally my idea was to aim at Thai students, the market I'm familiar with. And I struggled for a few months developing this, developing my online course and my platform and all of the trial and error that is involved with doing this, even though I have a master's in online and distance education.
It was just so much work and I felt like I was every day making one step forward, five steps backward, with trial and error, trying out different ways of making videos, building the courses, putting it all together. And I really felt that I could do with having a mentor.
I came across David's group, the online course creators' community, and I was very impressed from the beginning with David, and what he's doing, and the community in general. And it took me probably a couple of months before I finally got in touch with David for a coaching call.
And my idea was to get to this coaching call, and he said he would give me a plan and help clarify things. And the coaching call itself was, it turned my world upside down. Let me just put it like that. So it really opened my eyes. And afterwards, David offered to work together on my plan.
He helped me come up with a new direction, and then he offered to work together with me by giving me the opportunity to buy into his course. And originally I thought, I don't think I need it. I don't need to make that investment. I was a bit strapped for cash, and I figured that I had a pretty clear idea about where I was going to go then.
But I thought about it for a few days, and I just realized if I hadn't have waited for those two months to get in contact with him or even two months before that, even realizing who David was, how far down the line I would have been at that stage. So I decided to bite the bullet, make the investment, and join David's course. And I say, honestly, it's one of the best investments I've ever made in my whole life.
I'm absolutely delighted The only mistake I made was not doing it sooner. But sure, there's nothing we can do about that. But for anyone thinking about it, I really recommend it. There's two main advantages, I suppose, for me. First of all, the step-by-step program, because I didn't have the experience and I didn't have a roadmap of where to do this.
I would have been wasting years probably trying to do this to where I am now. And I'm in the program, I think about three months now. Could even be exactly three months. I've gotten so much accomplished in that time. So the step-by-step program is worth its weight and gold.
And it really is step by step explaining everything, his unique method, I love. You know, building your audience before you build your course makes so much sense. So at the moment, I've built my audience. Right now I have over 700 people in my Facebook community, and it's extremely active.
David told me in the coaching call, I said I was anxious about how the community, how much engagement there would be in the community with English learners. And David said to me, how did he put it, he said, don't worry about that. I'm the expert in that, or, I'll take care of that for you.
I'll be able to help you out with that. Something along those lines. And he has, and it's extremely engaged. It's an engaged community. So I'm about to start selling my course. I already have a list of people waiting to buy it, and it's just, so much of this is down to David and his amazing course.
So I told you there are two aspects. First the step-by-step program, which gave me a perfect direct roadmap of everything I need to do. And second of all, which possibly, well, I don't know if it's more important or not, could be more important, is the community.
There's a very active community of people who are in the same boat. And I regularly, when I come across issues, I post in the community and David is extremely active. He always gets back very, very quickly on any questions I have, and I always have a lot.
A quick example, in my own community, I had an issue with one of the members. I wasn't sure how to deal with it, and I just said, hold on, I'll speak with my team and I'll get back to you. And it felt fantastic to be able to say that. And I feel that I do have a team of experts working alongside me now as I go along this journey.
So I was able to post into the group. David and other members of the team gave me advice on that particular issue. And that's the way it always is, and it's just fantastic. I really, really recommend joining this course. if you're thinking about setting up a course, an online course, building a community and selling, helping others.
And, yeah, I wouldn't make this, I'm not... I'm delighted to have this opportunity to create this testimonial for David. Anytime, any chance I get, I type in, I say to people, go for it, go for it. So, yes, go for it.
I give a huge thumbs up. And while I'm here, I'd like to say thanks again David, for everything you've helped me with. I really appreciate it. I highly recommend this course. Thank you.

Hi, my name is Julia Helland and I'm a student of David Vidales. I just wanted to tell all of you that I have never been in a program that is so awesome. I have had years and years of trainings and professional developments as a public school teacher. And guys, David is the best of the best.
David's course is step by step, and of course that's the name of his course. And my brain loves the order that he teaches the detailed material in. And I love how each slide adds a component to make one main concept by the last slide. David does a really good job of really getting into why we do things instead of just do these things.
And the main reason why are what makes this program work. The modules are set up really well, and he has carefully thought through his work to give us extreme value. And David, he is there all the time and he will help you with anything that you need. We have coaching sessions and he will answer all of our questions.
He is really committed, like 100% to his community and to his course. And I just highly, highly recommend this program, especially if you're struggling with different types of online course issues. And he has everything covered in the course and it is worth every penny.
In fact, when I was thinking about joining, I had my session with him, and by the end of the session, I just could have cared less what the price was for the course. I'm pretty conscious about my money, but I knew that I had to be in this course.
It just fit me so well, and it was just presented so well to me, and now I'm in it and it has been just money well spent. So thank you David for putting all of your love, energy, time into making this something that is so valuable.

Monika: Hi, my name is Monika.
Arkadiy: My name is Arkadiy.
Monika:Ā And we are the creators of BLNC-D, Life of Action Community. We wanna share some thoughts about the Online Course Secrets.
Arkadiy:Ā Yes, well, let's start with, this is one of the best experiences I've ever went through.
I think I can say the same thing about you, with one of the best coaches I think we have ever met, because the amount of attention David puts. The amount of help, and support, and encouragement you are getting from him is literally priceless.
Monika:Ā So the thing with this program is, it helps you get started. It helps you fulfill everything that you need in order to put your course out there. Sometimes we're stuck, right? We're stuck in having an idea, we have the concept where we don't know what platform to use, we don't know, where do we get started, what are the equipment to use. The course takes you through everything in that, and David is there to help you throughout the whole process.
Arkadiy:Ā I have not that much to add, except of, again, the course itself is built in such a logical, and such a perfect manner, and broken down to such a small details I think if he would bring a five-year-old, and put it right here right now, going through this course, this baby will be able to understand how to create and sell a high-ticket course by himself without any problems. We couldn't get anything done before we started, we couldn't set things up, we didn't know where the start with, okay? So clarity is one of the really important things that this course provides with, okay, but after going through this, it wasn't easy, let's be honest.
Monika:Ā You need to put in the effort.
Arkadiy:Ā You need to put in the effort, but after we went through this, after we realized what we need to do. After going through several coaching calls with David, and after the big realization that happened to us, we started seeing progress, we started seeing progress in everything we're doing.
Monika:Ā We're still growing, but we're now super excited with the growth and we know what we need to do in order to keep growing. And that's the beautiful thing, because even when you're done with the course, you're never done with the learning. You are in the community of the OCS throughout however long that you want. This is the most amazing thing, that OCS is not only a course, it's also a community. And David is there to guide and help you throughout the whole process.
Arkadiy:Ā Yeah, so forget about buying a course where you're giving money and just sitting there with videos. It's not only that, you're not only getting videos, you're not only getting coaching, you're getting both of that, and above all, you're getting one of the best mentors you could ever meet.
Monika:Ā So don't think about it, Do it!
Arkadiy:Ā Right!

Hi there. I'm Janie Peters, and I gotta give props to David Vidales and the Online Course Secrets Step-By-Step Program. What a game changer it has been for me. Number one, David completely takes out the overwhelm when it comes to building an online course. I struggled with it.
I had been struggling with it for probably about a year before I received communication from David and, thankfully he found me because I have really benefited from his program. Number two, I really appreciate his approach of building a community first.
I had been putting together an online course and literally working in a bubble and just knowing that this is going to be really important information. And when you're working in a bubble like that, you really don't know how people are going to perceive it or what they're really, really struggling with.
And it just makes so much sense to build the community first and speak to their needs. And lastly, I've had the pleasure of a 1 on 1 coaching call with David, and that was incredibly valuable because even though I love the steps, the step by steps, which are really easy to follow, the problem is I can get caught up in the minutiae of the steps.
And through this coaching call with David that I had, he was able to hear what I'm saying and realize that what I was saying was my problem, was not the problem. And was able to put it into a macro view. So it's important to step back and look at the big picture of what you're creating and how you're going about it.
So, I mean, obviously creating an online course that's something you're passionate about, it's a labor of love, and there's so much going on, and David's program is just so incredibly concise with so much support and a great community of people. I'm so excited to be a part of it.
And lastly, I want to say, what I respect the most about David is his approach to sales. It is absolutely not salesy at all He always come from a place of servitude and there's no agenda that I am sensing.
And that is exactly what I want to emulate as I go out and promote my course and build my community. So he is incredible. I highly recommend David Vidales and his Online Course Secrets, Step-By-Step Program. Thanks so much David. You're awesome, bye.

Tracey Harvey
Transcription
Hi, I'm Tracey Harvey, and I'm in David Vidales' student group. And I'm just here to say that David's program is a stellar program. When I started, I had a group coaching, last year, and it, you know, got me started. And it was basically about a three month program or so, and it helped me to kind of develop my signature system
But then once the group's over, there were still so many questions that I had, whether it was technology, or content, or marketing, sales. And so when I joined David's group, what I have found that, it wasn't like I was starting over, because David really, within the program, it takes you exactly where you are.
And so I was able to have a lot more of my questions answered. And I realized, like, before I was trying to do a launch. And with David, it just makes sense, his program. And what I love about his coaching is it's really step-by-step. There's so much clarity.
He is so, not only so organized, but he has this clarity about what he's teaching is so clear that you can follow it literally step-by-step and go back and watch the videos and whatnot. And what I really, really appreciate too is that we just have this continual, you know, continuous coaching.
So in the Saturday groups, for example, it's almost as though I have an individual coach because David goes around and asks us questions, and it's so valuable. And so sometimes when I'm feeling like I'm losing a little bit momentum with the group or if I'm struggling with something, I get back on board again because he's so inspirational.
And I have recommended this program to many people, because honestly, just from where I've been for doing this course creation for a year and a half or so. And seeing everything that's out there, just from my experience, I would highly recommend David.
And it just keeps me kind of, like, focused and on the right track. So I'm so grateful, so appreciative, and I just think he's the best coach. So, thank you, and I would say sign up for David's course. You'll never regret it.

Hi, I'm Tini. I'm a course creator and writer with a background in nutrition and teaching. I live in Germany, and I started my online business by creating meal plans for my clients. But then I wanted to incorporate teaching with it because I had experience in teaching, and the obvious answer was to create an online course.
And so I did, I created an online course. I published it on the marketplace. I got quite a few of sales in the beginning, but then after a while, sales dropped. I mean, I would get one or two, maybe, sales a month. And then I started to learn about marketing, about selling, about course creation.
I found myself in Facebook groups, and one of those groups was David's community. And, the thing is that if we learn advanced marketing and selling techniques and we apply them at the wrong time when we are not ready, and we talk to people who are not interested per se in what we've got going on and people do not know us, then we won't get the results that we are looking for.
And that's what happened to me. This is why I joined David's program. I had been following him for quite a while, like two or three months before I joined his program. I remember I was looking at his program page, and yes, I want to join, but maybe not now, maybe later.
And the thing is that the price was about to change. So I said, okay, I'm going to do it. And I jumped on a call with David. He explained his method, he explained his program, and he explained what I needed. It wasn't like, okay, this is the method that you need.
He looked at what I was doing and where I was at in my journey, and he suggested a few tweaks here and there and exactly my next steps. And then I joined the program because I was already sold anyway. Okay, I'm trying to include everything in this video because I want you guys to get it.
Now, I started to create a community, and it didn't take long to create a community and to fill it with people interested in what I was doing. The thing about a community is that you gather people around your message and you also increase your impact.
It's not just, okay, I created this course, go buy it and I make money, and that's it. No, because it's more than that. It's about making an impact in the world and helping lots of people. Right, because that's the rewarding part. And I like when I joined the program, I actually started to watch every video and implement at the same time.
And I've learned a cool way of creating a community, creating my course and various ways of selling the course. It's just not one way of selling the course. And you can start selling your course right away in the community. Now, I created my signature program on Healthy Lifestyle, but then I also changed my direction.
And the cool thing is that David was there, he was there every step of the way supporting me and the other members in the community and the student community, which is by far the biggest thing, asset of this program. So the program in itself is awesome. It's step by step, you implement to get results.
Then the community aspect, you have a question, you ask it, and you get support from the other students and from David himself. You do not have to wait long to get a reply. And I also like the coaching calls, the weekly coaching calls, which are awesome.
I mean, if you have something you're stuck on something, you get the clarity that you need to move forward. So I would say that it's not just a program, you get in, you get the results and you get out. It's an ongoing thing because we're always evolving in our business and everything... There's always something that comes up.
And this is the cool part about how David created his program and how he teaches it. It's a unique way of teaching online course secrets. And by the way, yes, there are secrets in there. And yeah, I think that if you want to do things the right way and if you want to make a bigger impact and you have a mission, then do join the program.
We will all be there to support you. I mean, I also got to collaborate with amazing people from the student group and we've created some amazing things together. So I highly recommend this course and David. David, you're awesome. And yeah, just do it. It's going to be so much fun.
You are going to feel relieved that you have a right way, a step by step way of creating and launching an online course alongside with a community of raging fan. Okay, thank you guys for watching, bye.

Hey, David, this is Jean, Jean Dorff. I'm making this video for you and not to only give you just a shout out, but also for your potential and your current clients. I just wanted to do a quick, I don't know, for the lack of better words, testimonial how happy and thrilled I am that I jumped onboard a few months ago.
All, and this is where I came from, I have a coaching business and I had a hard time actually to get a consistent stream of clients. So I had not a good system, so to speak. And I tried a few other coaching programs and working now with David, those strategies and those coaching programs might be equally good as this one, I don't know.
But the one thing that I asked David for is why is your coaching program different? And for me, what resonated with me, that it is a step by step plan. So literally the smallest step you can think of, and then you take the next step and I like that.
And the other thing is that it is just not a bunch of videos that you have to watch and you have to do it all yourself. It has a lot of handholding and coaching, and also molding it and make it more applicable to what is good for my business. And I see him doing that also with other people.
So I can translate it almost and then apply it to what has worked for what my situation is. So I think those were the two main things that I really like. It is truly step by step. And then secondly, it is very hands on. It is literally working with David himself and then creating it so you're not being left out by your own.
And it took me actually, to be very honest, it took me five months. I was already five months in the program and I just watched the videos and I thought okay, that's kind of cool. And I hardly called into the coaching calls.
And then at some point in time I said well, this is the number X coaching program that I do. I cannot afford to invest again and not seeing any results. So I'm going to call David and say what do I need to do? And from that moment on, I started to follow it step by step and it brought me already a great result.
Actually, I would say it a little bit more bold. It completely changed my business in a very short amount of time. Now, having said that, there was another surprise coming up, and it was just I think the luck of the draw is that David was going to do a completely renew of his course material, and he said, I'm doing that LIVE, so you can join me.
And it's just part of the program, and then we talk about it, you know, and then you can comment in it. And to be honest, for a person like me. I think that was really good. I just had to immerse myself for like two, three weeks into everything that he had to tell.
And I had my notebook and I followed it with a few other people and we had our questions and it was great. And it actually made me understand, even to a much deeper level, how much knowledge, and it's not so much about the knowledge David has, but how he applies that.
And actually, I would almost say it's almost religious, how his philosophy is, how to create a Facebook group that brings people together that you can truly serve, but are also looking for you, which is, I think, radically. So it's not only bringing people together and hope you can sell.
No, actually the people that you invite to be in your group already kind of are ready for your services, maybe not yet in a paid-for way, but they will at some point in time. So that is pretty unique. And I have a really small group now, and I can already tell you that it already paid itself back. So that's one thing.
And the other thing, the way David looks at the marketing, and how to talk about what you make, it also forces you to really think deeper about am I delivering the service that I want to deliver at the highest level possible? And I thought I always was, but David actually challenged me and others to do that better.
And whether we were talking just about the normal sales process, whether we're talking about objections in sales, whether it's about, it always need to have that lens over it. Is this really in service of your clients? Or are you doing this because you want to make sales and you want to be needy and all that kind of things? And I always wanted that.
I always thought that's the philosophy to do, to have. So he didn't have to convince me for that. But what he did convince me of is you can actually put this also in a system that works for you, right. So thank you for that, David. I hope this testimonial is not too long. You know that I could probably give you a dozen of other compliments on other things.
Like, for instance, how you deliver your stuff or how much patience I see you having, you have with the clients that you serve, and how much crazy little details you know, whether it's technical details, how to set up a Facebook pixel, or whether it's just having a really good conversation.
In how do you overcome maybe someone's sales objection. I could say all these things, but it's all coming from that same philosophy. Is having a conversation with your client, and see where you can actually solve the problem for the client. And if that is for a paid-for service, then that's great. But if you can help them in another way, that should be okay, too.
Okay, so this was Jean with my too long testimonial. So edit it if you want to, or just post it the way it is. That's all up to you, my friend. And I hope to see you back really soon in one of your other sessions. Okay, bye bye.

Heidi Knecht-Seegers
Transcription
Hi, my name is Heidi Knecht-Seegers, and I am the founder of a brand new program, which I'm working on with David Vidales right now called Overcoming Your Stress. So I'm a relatively new client of David's. Maybe I've been with him for about a month, but I think without knowing it, I've been searching for him for the extent of most of the pandemic.
Somehow he found me probably a year or two ago and had reached out to me, thinking that maybe I needed help. And I definitely did need help. I came to the Internet as a yoga teacher who had lost access to a yoga studio because of the pandemic. And yet I still wanted to be able to help other people and keep practicing with other people.
Because this is one of the greatest joys in my life, to impart, not just the physical part of yoga, but what it has helped me with in terms of every aspect of my life and certainly overcoming my physical and emotional stress.
So David had contacted me, and I was bombarded by so many different coaches once I started getting online and learning things and trying to figure out what I needed to do. And it was just really hard to know who to believe, who to follow, which advice to take.
There was so much contradictory information out there, and yet everybody was sure that theirs was the best and the right way to approach everything. I would say that I started creating things on my own. I started teaching on Zoom. I eventually started teaching on Insight Timer.
I knew I had to have a group, so I started a group. I was told I should do nurturing campaign emails, so I was doing that. People told me to write articles, so I was doing some of that and loving reaching out to people, loving the amazing feedback I was getting from people and about how I was helping them.
But I wasn't able to grow my group. I really didn't have the pieces of the machine to make this work so that I could reach out and help more people all around the globe and to be able to get compensated financially. Because even as a yoga teacher, most of what I'm doing right now is basically donation based.
And I haven't been getting compensated financially for the work I'm doing. And that's also very important, not just in paying my bills, my expenses, but in helping me acknowledge my own self-worth. And all of the knowledge that I am now trying to impart to other people.
So I had all of these fragments of things floating around and trying to do it all myself. Partly because of financial concerns of plopping down large amounts of money to work with all of these different people who wanted me to work with them, but also not knowing which direction to go. Additionally, I didn't feel I had enough ready.
This is just me. I don't like to be rushed or feel like I have to do things at the last moment. And I don't like to work under pressure. So I felt for myself that I needed to have something created, like a program. I didn't want to create it as I went. That wasn't going to work for what I wanted to do.
So I spent a lot of time putting all of these things together. And periodically David would reach back out to me using his method, which apparently worked, to say, hey, how's it going? And this past time, when he reached out, which was maybe a month and a half ago, I don't even know exactly, I was like, oh my God, there's David Vidales again.
What am I going to say this time? I still don't know. I'm still not sure. I still don't know who to trust. I'm ready to invest, to help somebody. I know I need help, but I don't know who the right person is, and I don't want to make a mistake. So I was very skeptical about that. That's what was going through my mind.
Those are the things I was struggling with. And at that point, when he called me, I guess the stars were aligned in just the right way because I felt like I had enough set up that I now knew I had things to work with, but didn't know how to make them work together.
And there was something about the way we conversed at that time that made me feel like this was the way to go. And being very thorough as I am, I of course, wanted to see other testimonials, which is partly why I'm doing this one. And I wanted to check out his method videos and check out his group.
I'm very detail oriented and it just seemed right. We were able to talk out the way our relationship was going to go, the types of support he was going to give, because that is critical for me. I know I have a million questions, and he's always welcoming of those questions, which is great, but not everybody is.
So I needed to know I had a safe space within which I could ask my never-ending questions and feel supported. And once I felt we addressed those issues and all of these other things. I decided to take the plunge. And I think I thought about it for 24 hours. He said, let's get back in 24 hours.
And at that point, I had made up my mind by that night before we talked for the last time, and I said, okay, I'm going to just do it. And so he is the first real coach that I have worked with in a big way like this. And I am so excited.
I'm sorry if this is getting a little bit long, but I just wanted to share with you kind of what my process has been. And I can't say that I've gotten clients yet because I haven't gotten to that point.
Although he keeps encouraging me just reach out and just start making calls, but I need to have certain foundational things set up, and he is helping me get those set up. He is an amazing coach. I think he's really one of a kind.
His approach is gentle, he's not pushy, but he's right there to put things in perspective and to help you work, or help me in this case, work through the things I'm not sure of. When I'm wording something in the starter guide, for example, he's right there helping me edit it to make it stronger.
He looks at the funnel that I've created and he's like, okay, we should change these things and these. But he doesn't necessarily give me the exact wording.
But he gives me guidance on ways to phrase things, ways to talk to people so that I'm helping to coach them and give them enough material that they're interested in maybe coming to me to work with me as a coach, to help them overcome their physical and emotional stress.
So I think that he's really helped me in so many different ways to feel good about what I'm doing. I love the community of people that he has working with him already. Very interesting, wonderful interactive and supportive community. I love that when I reach out to him through the messaging, he gets back to me.
And I just had the amazing opportunity of going through his live training, he was filming it once again. That was amazing. If you have the opportunity to do that, you should totally do it. Because not only did I get to see him creating the videos for this program, but at the same time, the few of us who were there were able to chat in our questions.
So throughout his creation of the videos, as he was doing this, as questions popped up in my head, I could just message them to him because I'm hoping that there are other people who had some of the same questions I did, maybe they did. And hopefully, that would give extra information that would be helpful.
So he's never critical of the questions that come in. I think he feels, and this is a wonderful way of framing, which is something that he's great at, that if I ask a question, for example, it's helping him see something else that he can do or offer or clarify to some of his other clients to help them in their journey as well.
So I would say that we're off to a great start. I don't know where it's going to go from here. I'm following his path. Things are really coming together. I would say that my group has grown from, I don't know where I was. In the month it's grown by maybe 125 people from like 379, where I think now over 500.
So that's totally due to David's method. And there's so much, he has so much to offer that I've only begun to scratch the surface of what I think I will gain from working with him. I would say that if you're sitting on the fence in any way, come work with David. On a scale of a one to five, I would give him a six or more.
He has just been terrific. I'm super excited. I feel like once I made that decision, I just felt taken care of. So I think I'm in good hands, and I think you would be as well. So I totally recommend that you try working with David and see how it goes, and maybe I'll see you on the inside of the program. Have a beautiful day. Thank you.

Hi, my name is Serge and I want to do an evaluation for the course of David about creating courses. I must say that I've joined his course about almost a year ago and I'm really happy. Even it's a year later, I'm still in contact with David and I really feel that David, you gave me a lot and I really feel that you still give me a lot.
I can speak with you during our conference calls, which is in the Zoom for the group. Just to tell you about me, I've also created a course and the investment that I've made in David's program, I've gathered back within about 2 months or 3 months maybe, because I learned, and I applied, and I still apply.
And one thing I really like about David, that number one, he is extremely dedicated to his client. And there's always changes in terms of the latest information that will help us to succeed. And you always make sure to give us the best and latest technique that will help us develop our business. And this is something I really appreciate about you.
I've made certain changes about my business and at the moment what I do is I offer ongoing support, so I do manage accounts for people that work with me. So that way, instead of selling them a full course, I do some sort of retainer basically. And I like it because that way I get the payment continuously, okay.
So that's something I'm using and I'm happy and I see a result and it's working nicely for me currently. There's something I want to say for those who sometimes doubt and they're not sure and everything. Few years ago I heard a video of this gentleman called Grant Cardone, I'm sure you heard of him.
And someone came to him and asked him, how much do you charge? And he said the price. And the guy said, look, you know what, it's a little bit too expensive. I can find the same thing cheaper across the road. So Grant Cardone said something amazing. He said, you can go across the street and you are welcome.
But there's one thing you're not going to get. You're not going to get me, Grant Cardone on the other side of the street. If you want me, this is the price you have to pay. And this is the exact same thing about David.
If you want him and you want his commitment and his help, you will have to do that investment and it is worth it. And after that, I've seen people try to sell courses and everything, but you don't get the commitment and dedication, and the help that you get, from anyone I've never seen, like you get from David. And this is worth any price.
So I don't know what is the current price, but it's really worth it. Because that's one thing he told me the first time we had a call. If you join, you have my support forever. As long as I'm around and I do my course, you get my support.
And that's something that's worth a lot of money, because now you might think, yes, but it costs so much, and this, but look at the long run. If you want to develop a successful business, you need someone who knows what he's doing and he's there to guide you.
And that's something I got from David. And I really am grateful for this, and I appreciate this. And I look forward to continue to use your skills and your guidance in my business. Thank you very, very much for this.

Hi everyone, I'm John. I'm from Wisconsin in the United States and I am a social confidence coach, and I'm a life coach, that's what I focus on. And I was looking for a way to really take what I know and make it available online. That's where David's course came in handy because I had been trying to find the right way of doing this.
He takes you step by step through the process of building a community, creating a course, and then showing you how to sell it. And I needed all those steps. And the way he presented it was actually really well done. And I highly suggest it to anyone who is interested in becoming a course developer.
I guess what I struggled with, like I said, is the part where I really wasn't sure how to build a course. I looked at many different courses out there and I looked through, did a lot of my own research and really didn't see a clear path on how to do it.
I saw David's friend request come up for his community, and I looked at the, I saw the cover photo and that really got my attention in the friend request. And so I accepted him as a friend. I learned about the community and then I also learned about the course that he offered.
And I'm taking the OCS Step-By-Step Program. I've completed it a few times, or I've completed several of the portions of the course a few times already and it really helped me build my community. I'm in the process of building my course and then on January 1st I plan on launching my course.
And that point too is really the part that will be challenging for me, and that's doing the strategy calls and that would be selling people my offering. And David has a really nice way of helping people too.
You see that, not only in the way that he talks in his, in the community, but also in the class too, is he's very concerned about other people's well-being, which is actually very important. And I really appreciate that because that's really the way that I want to sell too.
I want to kind of do a soft-sell approach or just helping people and then helping them realize that I could be the person that could help them in their journey, become more socially confident. So I would recommend this to really anyone interested in developing a course, taking your knowledge and putting into a course.
Also building a community too because community is as important as the course itself, and then make revenue from it too. Not only putting your knowledge out there and helping other people, but also making a profit. And Dave will help you with all those steps.
He's really a great individual. I really like his passion for the topic, I like the story and I highly recommend using or taking the course, thanks.

So after I took David's program, he really helped me clarify everything I need to do to put forward the best possible offer for my students. And now I think I'm in a much better path to actually figuring out what my students need and how I can help them in the most optimum way which is best for me as well as my students.
So anyone considering taking David's program I highly recommend it and I give it five star for sure. So yeah, thanks!

The information in his training and his one-on-one coaching is unbelievable, and it's really, really good if you want to get an online course out to people, but you're maybe not sure on exactly the right steps or the right order.

My name is Avnita Suri. I help people overcome chronic and debilitating pain. Before I met David, I was struggling, trying to get people onto my course. But since working with David, I've made a lot of progress. What I was finding is that initially I was getting like, one person a year onto my course.
And since working with him, I've had ten students. I've also got a growing community on Facebook with 700 members. So it's all very exciting. Things have become more methodical and the goals are more reachable. It's just so much easier to work with someone who knows what he's doing.
So with David, I found that he helps with all my issues. Always coming back straight away, nothing is too trivial or too silly. Like, he'll come back with all the answers and makes it very easy.
His videos are clear, they're concise, they're to the point, and I have regular coaching calls in a group setting, and even that's really enjoyable because he can deal with unique issues and having the support and knowing that there are other people who are also in the same situation.
I highly recommend working with David. Like I said, all the benefits that you'll get, as mentioned before, and if you're really serious about doing a course and you're trying to reach people, have a larger outreach. I do really recommend working with David.

Hi, I'm Anzel from Cape Town, South Africa. I'm a business growth mentor and help small businesses to increase their online visibility through means of websites and social media platforms.
Before I started with David's program, I really struggled on how to put a course together and how to sell in markets I wasn't able to sell any of my courses, which was just very, very disappointing. What I enjoy most of the program is the support that David and his team provides inside the Facebook group.
I also enjoy being taught a strategy on how to create and market your course, which at the end of the day, obviously gives you more sales and income. One of my biggest takeaways is those strategies that David teach is an eye opener. You get like this aha-moment and everything just falls into place.
And then also I was always excited about new Masterclasses and the group coaching calls, which is, that you can learn a lot more from David himself. And I would recommend basically anyone that wants to do an online course or a program, or even if you have done one already, I would recommend doing it because they will definitely get better results.
