Digital Course Academy Success Story
H.M. Ward 22x New York Times Bestselling Author
“After rapidly publishing 120 best-selling books, I was BURNT OUT… But with the help of DCA, my digital courses are now providing me with a steady income that isn’t so dependent on my time. It feels incredible to step back and finally start focusing on myself again!”
Results are not guaranteed. Please see earnings disclaimer for more detail.
As an artist, I’ve always had the need to create something… and I knew for me that a business was it!
So when my husband and I built our photography business, we thought we were set.
Yet, life had a VERY different plan.
I fell ill and could no longer keep up with the business. I was forced to close the doors.
But I had to find some way to make money while I got my health back on track. Photography just wasn’t it.
But writing was. I could do it from home. And even from bed.
The publishing industry can be a tough nut to crack, especially for someone who’s brand new to it. But I’m a hustler… so I taught myself the sales and marketing strategies I needed to succeed.
It wasn’t long before I had published 120 books and became a New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal best-selling author.
Yes! That was cool! But now there was a new problem…
We worked at such a fast pace to make that happen, my team and I got burnt out.
I knew I had to find a way to step back and work less, while still being able to totally rock it in this new career that I love.
Luckily, figuring this out was quite easy.
My writing success allowed me to build an audience of writers who are struggling to get their own careers off the ground. In fact, many of these people reach out to me daily, asking the secrets to becoming a successful and published author.
So I started making online courses and webinars for my audience. Yet, I quickly realized I lacked the clarity and structure that I needed to build a sustainable and profitable digital business. I needed some big-time help!
And that’s why I signed up for Digital Course Academy.
I dove head in and used Amy’s framework to create my signature courses helping new writers who are struggling to write and market their own books.
I love how easy Amy made this process! She taught me how to take my many ideas and structure them in a way so that my courses are exactly what my students want. It feels good knowing I am able to provide such valuable help to those who want to learn from me.
With Amy’s guidance, I surpassed the 6-figure mark!
And with one launch alone, I gained 40 new students, generating $83,106!
Thanks to Amy and DCA, I no longer have to be the glue that holds everything together in my writing business.
Being a self-published author is great, but being able to sell my digital courses has allowed me to better leverage my time so I can step back and focus on myself this year (while still doing what I love!).
Thank you, Amy!
