How can you market more than 100 seats in your Online Course to an enormous corporation customer

Oct 3, 2024

In the coming years, over $8 billion has been authorized for the purchase of coaching courses, workshops, and other services from large to small groups, such as charities and non-profits, and associations.

56% of the training is conducted by trainers or facilitators who aren't from the outside (experts just like that you).

The most fascinating thing is that the majority of the training that's available is offered on the web.

What I learned when I was the person who made the ultimate decision on the seven-figure training budget

In the past, I served as in the post of Chief Learning Officer in an organization on a vast size. The annual budget for my expenditure was in excess of 7 figures.

I have purchased all kinds of training including NLP to our sales personnel as well as alkaline diets during our executive retreat, to drummers for the company's annual celebration along with everything else that you'd expect from leadership, productivity sales, and more.

The thing I've discovered was that: If you can relate what you're doing with the outcome the business is seeking, businesses are more likely to collaborate with their partners.

How to sell your online classes to corporations is a Good Idea

Since I started my own company providing training to experts as well as companies developing courses and classes and courses, I've earned millions dollars in training, online courses, and consulting revenue from corporate and entrepreneurs as well as larger clients. Below are some strategies that can help you get the exact same results:

1. You are able to offer several "seats" within your class to a single customer. Corporate customers have had the option to purchase 10, 20 100, 50 and 250 seats in my classes with prices ranging between $179 and $1997.

2. You can combine your online training program by offering an up-sell, such as coaching individuals on the web as well as the option of a virtual or online class for implementation.

3. It's simple to modify an online course that is already set up and caters to corporate customers. The best way to increase accessibility to your class through scheduling one-on-one implementation meetings with all students of the company hosting it. Also, you could make applications that are in line with the goals for the future, which are compatible with the curriculum you've provided in the course. There are a myriad of options.

4. Corporate clients are a great way in the acquisition of more customers. Knowing that you've worked with corporate clients will give your company an immediate boost in credibility for selling your product to single customers.

   The process of selling an online course to a corporate customer prior to the time you create it  

What is the significance if you don't offer an online course for sales? Offering a customer a pre-sales offer for an online course before establishing it can be a great method of determining what should be provided in the course. It could also be helpful to fund development time.

This process is much simpler than you'd think. In meetings with corporate customers, I will take participants through the procedure and then invite them to share the things that they would like to find included in the online courses offered.

It is possible to turn around and sell this data to clients of corporate companies or sell it to your private clients.

2. What is my topic of study? What do they have in common? relate to the outcomes of the venture it invests its money in?

An easy method to make corporate clients to see your course's value is to link what the course's results bring to the profits it generates.

It's easy to estimate the possible profit that could be derived from topics such as selling skills, or marketing through social media. Doesn't it?

However, what happens if you're teaching about a subject with a less obvious connection for example, sleep therapy?

Two questions you can be sure to ask

What outcomes will my proposal will produce?

What is this referring to profit?

Below are a few topics that my clients have suggested for the market for corporates:

Class Topic What's the end-product that you're providing? What is this results' relationship to profits?
Sleep Therapy Assisting children in settling
  • Children and infants may be troubled with sleeping.
  • Sleep deprivation results in lower productivity
  • A lack of sleep could lead to the newly-weds contemplating a change in their choice to go to work
Boundaries What do you need to do to avoid engaging in discussions that can hold your team behind?
  • Some people put off having difficult conversations
  • Insufficiently difficult discussions can hold the team from meeting their deadlines or achieving their goals.
Writing How do you craft compelling text?
  • An improved copy of marketing increases sales
  • Well-written content published on the web via blogs, emails or technical guides improves the engagement of customers.
Storytelling What story can you develop to tell other people the story that you tell in your "Hero's Journey" narrative?
  • Storytelling creates emotional connection
  • The brands that people choose to put their money into are ones that they feel a strong emotional bond to.
  • A strong emotional connection with the brand increases selling

If you're an expert, coach or freelancer that speaks of small-scale or writing you have the opportunity for collaboration with companies that are of any size as well as non-profits and associations.

In the next webcast, which is free and open to everyone in our community, I'll teach you the steps to get corporate customers. This webinar will focus on:

  • Who purchases who, what are they buying, what are they buying, and what is the most effective way to establish the amount to which they spend on what you sell
  • There is one thing you shouldn't say during a conversation with an aspiring corporate client (this may result in the ambiguous realm of "We'll contact the" ..." that is probably an attempt to sell)
  • What do you need to do in order to stop selling online courses and programs? You can also sell other courses, accepting students one at a time, to selling bundles that contain 50, 100 or more, to one company.
  • What should you do before you pick up your phone or write emails so that your customers can appreciate the value in your products and services, as and invest in your offerings (most people don't do this, and never get to an initial stage)
  • An extremely effective conversation in four parts Framework for a conversation with your customers so that you can bring your customer closer to making a purchase
