Episode Notes: How man times have you spoken at an event and not gotten paid? You rely on reputation escalation, credibility and the possibility of new clients. And that's all wonderful and we recommend it. Often the organization does not want you to sell your wares or it's just not the forum to do that. .........Still many TAKERS want to get your information and they want it for free. If there are locals and attendees that want it, doesn't it make sense that there are others worldwide? ......There are now sites that will allow you to sell to them and help you with the promotion also.....And you can make some passive income while you sleep......Listen in to hear Susan Newman of Broadcast Louder give you the real deal of how Udemy works. And explain how teaching an online course can positively affect your brand.

From Knowledge Base Articles



What is Udemy, exactly?

Udemy is a website that empowers anyone to teach and learn online. On Udemy, there are thousands of online courses from the best instructors in the world. Furthermore, if you’re an expert you can share your knowledge by creating an online course on Udemy.

Udemy’s platform makes it easy for experts to build an online course. Instructors can use video, PowerPoint, PDFs, audio, zip files and live classes to quickly build a course and share their expert knowledge with anyone in the world with an internet connection.

Things Udemy is not:

  • A publishing house – we provide the platform, and you keep the rights to your content.
  • An accredited university
  • A large albino elephant

Things Udemy is:

  • An education destination for all types of learners
  • A tool to empower all so they can teach to the best of their abilities
  • Really awesome and filled with undying appreciation for you
http://support.udemy.com/knowledgebase/articles/49992-what-is-udemy-exactly-




Udemy has very high quality standards and if you want to teach a class or course you must follow their specific steps and guidelines. Once you have uploaded video and written content, your course will be reviewed and they will alert you when it’s approved, or they will let you know what is missing, so you can go back in and manage your course.



Susan needed to create a higher resolution image that is displayed next to the title. She also decided to create a live action video of herself explaining why she created the series and why it would benefit others including some of what they would learn. Originally she had another screencast introduction but after looking at some of the other teacher’s classes, she realized a live action video would be best.



She had previously posted a free webinar class on Udemy covering Google Analytics and it gained over 150 students, so it was a good time to post another class. The pricing on Udemy is quite affordable, from $20 and up, and some are Free.



Udemy recently created a private group for the Udemy teachers on Facebook, so they can all learn and help each other.



Udemy has also opened up a blog space and is asking approved teachers to write a post on their course topic, so they can help broadcast the classes and teachers even further. Susan is currently writing this up.









“Education technology service Udemy has launched Teach2013, a new program that seeks to encourage and empower industry experts and leaders to step up and not only create their own courses, but teach them as well.”



So as TechnoGranny is always telling you, content is king.  There are sites out there craving content to line their virtual bookshelves and You can create it with your expertise and get paid for it.
