For The Interested - FTI #302: Questions and answers

The Starting Five
1. Three Ways To Find Great Content To Share
You don't have to create everything yourself to create value for your audience.
2. How To Create And Launch A Course In Two Weeks

4. Why You Should Leave Your Content Ungated
Stop forcing people to give you their email address to access your expertise - this explains why ungated content is better for them AND you.
5. How A Podcast That Gets 2,000 Downloads Earns $200,000
