My guest in today’s episode is Greg Smith the Co-Founder and CEO from Thinkific.
If you are known for your expertise and find yourself being asked for similar advice regularly, or if you have ever wanted to package up your wisdom and deliver it to help others, then you might have considered creating an online course or membership site.
Greg created his first online course 15 years ago, to share his passion and expertise with thousands of students. The revenues from his course soon surpassed his salary as a corporate lawyer.
Since then Greg and his team have built Thinkific—a powerful, all-in-one online course platform that makes it easy for you to build your own online courses or memberships—on your Shopify site under your brand.
This is a timely episode as Shopify brands are moving to create memorable communities to drive customer loyalty.
