Digital Course Academy Success Story
Farrah Henley Founder, Farrah Henley Education
“Since I am retired and travel full time in an RV, I needed a flexible source of income that complements my lifestyle. Course creation has given me that freedom!”
Results are not guaranteed. Please see earnings disclaimer for more detail.
I had been a classroom teacher for over 20 years and was involved in professional development for teachers during the last 10.
When I “retired” in 2016 I still wanted to help my fellow teachers, so I started looking into ways I could assist them virtually.
At first, I started with the well-known Teachers Pay Teachers platform and created my own teaching resources to sell online. And while I was learning how to do that, I began listening to business podcasts to get my creative juices flowing. That’s when I came across Amy!
I signed up for Digital Course Academy in 2018, even though I had no idea if I could do this. I thought to myself: “I don’t have an email list or even a social media following. Who would buy my course!?” But I saw that so many others – who were starting from scratch – also had success with a digital course business. And if they could do it, why couldn’t I do it too?
Over the course of 4 years I have gone through DCA 3 times – every time there are updates. (I love that we get all the updates for free – for life!)
Since my first launch in 2019, I have experimented with different course methods taught in DCA: live webinars, live training vs. recorded training, and memberships. (Memberships turned out to be a game changer with my business!)
I made a goal for myself this year to finally surpass the 6-figure mark, and with all my launches and my membership – I have brought in a total of $116,000 to date!
I have now figured out a system that works for me – and now I launch just once a year with the help of my launch team.
Amy is so invested in the success of her students and has shown me what kind of coach and mentor I want to be. She gave me the encouragement to show up in my life and for my students. For that alone, her course is priceless!
Since I am retired and travel full-time in an RV, I needed a flexible source of income that complements my lifestyle. Course creation has given me that freedom. But more importantly, I can continue to do what I feel passionate about, and that is helping teachers.
If I can make even one bit of their job less stressful, that’s a win for me!!
