How Business Coaches Can Launch a Course With the Help of a Virtual Assistant

September 09, 20243 min read

As a business coach, you have valuable knowledge and experience to share. You understand the potential impact of creating and selling a course, but when you're already stretched thin managing clients, administrative tasks, and personal responsibilities, finding the time to develop a course can feel impossible. The good news? You don’t have to do it alone. Hiring a Virtual Assistant (VA) can be the game-changer that turns your course idea into reality without draining your time and energy.

The Challenges Business Coaches Face

Many business coaches struggle to get their course off the ground because:

  • Lack of time: Between coaching sessions, networking, and growing your business, there’s little room left for course creation.

  • Overwhelm: Planning, organising, and executing a course launch involves many moving parts, from content creation to marketing.

  • Procrastination: With so much on your plate, it's easy to push course development to the bottom of your to-do list.

How a VA Can Help You Launch Your Course

A Virtual Assistant can help you streamline the process, taking on the time-consuming tasks that prevent you from getting started. Here’s how:

1. Research and Planning

Your VA can handle preliminary research to ensure your course covers the right topics for your target audience. They can:

  • Research trends in your niche to ensure your course is relevant.

  • Help identify what your competitors are doing, so you can offer something unique.

  • Assist in outlining your course structure and modules, ensuring a clear and logical flow.

2. Content Creation Support

Content creation is often the most time-intensive part of course development. While you focus on creating the core content, your VA can assist with:

  • Formatting content into slides or workbooks.

  • Proofreading and editing materials.

  • Transcribing recorded audio or video lessons into written content.

  • Finding relevant images, videos, or supplementary materials.

3. Tech Setup

The technical side of launching a course can be overwhelming, especially if you’re not tech-savvy. A VA experienced in course platforms can:

  • Set up your course on platforms like Teachable, Kajabi, The One Stop CRM or Thinkific.

  • Organise the back-end, ensuring modules, lessons, and quizzes are uploaded correctly.

  • Troubleshoot tech issues and ensure the course is functional and user-friendly.

4. Marketing and Promotion

Once your course is ready, you’ll need to get it in front of the right audience. Your VA can:

  • Create and schedule social media posts promoting your course launch.

  • Set up email marketing campaigns to build anticipation.

  • Reach out to potential affiliates or partners for collaborations.

  • Monitor your ads or promotional efforts, providing updates on performance.

5. Launch Coordination

A smooth course launch requires careful coordination. Your VA can manage the logistics, including:

  • Keeping track of deadlines and deliverables.

  • Ensuring promotional materials go out on time.

  • Handling customer inquiries or technical support during the launch.

  • Monitoring sales and student enrollments in real-time, so you can focus on engaging with your audience.

You don’t need to put off launching your course any longer. By working with a Virtual Assistant, you can delegate the tasks that eat away at your time and energy. This allows you to focus on what you do best—creating high-impact content that transforms lives. So, if you’re serious about finally launching your course, a VA could be the key to getting it done.
