IS IT TIME THAT YOU DID THAT THING?
Course Making Academy™️
The step-by-step guide to creating, launching and selling your own profitable online course!
welcome
If you’re currently dreaming of a way to make a full-time income FROM HOME, that doesn’t require you to…
- Trade time for dollars (1:1 clients)
- Cover your website in ads
- Have 100k Instagram followers
- Promote a product you aren’t passionate about
- or go back to school AGAIN in order to be seen as an “expert” on what you teach…
AND that allows you to work from wherever you are, help as many people as possible, and generate passive income...

Creating an online course is the fastest way to stop trading your time for dollars
...BUT I’M WILLING TO BET YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT (CAUSE YOU’RE HERE).
Whether you’ve just recently started your online business or you’ve been in the coaching or 1:1 service space for a while now, you already know that a 1-to-many offer is the key to making a bigger impact, earning more of that sweet money, honey, and having more freedom in your business—finally!
Rewarding, yes! But, still—hard.
Your calendar is maxed and every Monday you cringe to see how many calls you have that week.
You want more time in your day so you can close your laptop earlier, hang with your kids at the park without checking your phone, or be able to take a trip without work stress.
Let’s just call 1-on-1 client work what it is: hard.
You're ambitious AF, but also want to live your life outside your business.
You loveee seeing your clients score big wins, and you want to help even more people—but without building out a huge agency.
creating and selling your own ONLINE course
the answer:
And I know you might have doubts, like:
THAT ONE MIGHT CURRENTLY BE FACING IN THEIR BUSINESS
What would I even create an online course ABOUT?
How do I build an audience to sell my course to?
How would I launch/market it? Would anyone even buy?

What about all the tech stuff (videos, worksheets, audio lessons...AHHHH THE OVERWHELM)?!?
06
What about the logistics like: coming up with content, deciding which information to share and in what format, and how to ensure my students get results?
05
Why would anyone listen to ME when there are so many experts out there?
HOW DO I GET MY COURSE TO START MAKING PASSIVE INCOME?!?!
And most importantly...
NOW, SLOW YOUR SCROLL FOR A SEC.
Imagine what it would be like to finally create, launch and fill the founding round of your online course

Hey, I’m Mary, the creator
hey there
In 2018, I was climbing up the corporate ladder at a Fortune 500 company, and I hated it.
I took the leap of faith and quit — but I wasn’t an overnight success. Actually after a few month I found myself completely broke and lived in a tent.
In less than 18 months, I went from being in over 5 figures of debt...
...to traveling the world full-time and helping HUNDREDS more people (daily) than I EVER could with 1:1 sessions, all while consistently generating 6 figures per MONTH passively.
And I enjoy AF every single day of my freedom.
And enrollment notifications.
Today, I run a 7 figure digital company dedicated to helping content creators expand their reach and build incredible businesses using social media, just like I did.

How to create an entire passive income "funnel" so that your online course starts selling on autopilot (ever dreamed of waking up in the AM to sales notifications? I'll teach you how!)

Imagine this:
It's the weekend. You're obviously not working.
You wake up Saturday morning, check your email, and see a new notification that says, "a new student has just purchased your online course!"
...Without you having to jump on a sales call, e-mail back and forth, or slide into anyone's DM's in order to make the sale.
Imagine this:
No more hustling to find clients.
No more 12 hour days (with little to no results)
No more 12 hour days (with little to no results)
No more trading time for dollars.
No more working on other people's schedule.
No more working on other people's schedule.
It's time to SCALE your business (I know you have big $ goals), help more people at once with less effort, grow your audience on autopilot, and re-gain control over your schedule.

Q: How long will it take me to set up my online course + Passive income funnel?
A: I cannot give you an exact estimate because it will depend on your schedule, speed, and a variety of other factors, however as a general rule of thumb - your online course should take around 1-3 months to create (remember - I provide 30,60 and 90 day timelines for you!)
Your entire passive income funnel + webinar should take no more than 1 month to set up!

MYTH
online courses are only for the “tech savvy”
Truth: Before creating my own online courses, I had ZERO prior tech, website building, graphic design, or coding experience. Just the desire to create financial freedom and reach a larger number of people with my unique message. If you have the DESIRE to build an online course, help more people at once, and work from wherever you are in the world...that's all you need (I'll help you with the rest!)
Q: I am at the beginning stages of my business and don't have anything for sale yet. Is this course for me?
A: Perfect! The bundle will teach you exactly how to grow an online audience, create a digital offer (online course!) to sell, AND create passive income from it :)
Myth: You need a large audience in order to sell an online course
Truth: You can have an audience size of 10,000+ people - but if none of them are targeted, engaged, and "warmed up" to your online course idea, your course still won't sell.
Conversely, if you have an audience size of only 100 ENGAGED people that are the perfect fit for your course topic (+ a PROVEN launch strategy) you can expect to convert upwards of 20% of your audience.
Online Course Academy teaches how to simultaneously GROW your audience full of the RIGHT people - while you are creating your course content so that when you are ready to launch, you have a built-in warm audience that is excited to give you their money (<<< seriously!)

Here’s what you can expect to learn from enrolling in Course Making Academy
A proven formula to achieve your online course revenue goals (no matter what your current audience size)
Narrow the niche of your current business so that you can start to position yourself as the “expert” on your course topic
How to choose a PROFITABLE and desired online course topic that will have your clients saying “take my money”
How to make money off your course BEFORE it’s even created (yes, really!)
How to simultaneously grow your email list and audience full of future students WHILE creating your course content
An in-depth promotional strategy to get your voice and message heard by the masses (without the use of ANY ads) before launching
The step-by-step process for creating your online course content and turning it into slides, videos, audio, and PDFs (plus editable templates!)
How to price your online course competitively in your market (and charge what you’re worth!)
Screenshare of how to record + edit your course videos and upload them into your “school”
An entire 5-part launch strategy (including access to the EXACT e-mail sequence i’ve used during every one of my 5 and 6 figure launches)
Once your online course is created, you can start making PASSIVE income, reach an UNLIMITED number of students and making an UNLIMITED amount of $$...
The BEST part about all of this?
From ANYWHERE you have an internet connection.
Here's how it works:

This is for you if:
It's probably not for you if:
You’re a coach, content creator, or service provider who wants to add a scalable stream of income to your biz
You’re looking for a proven method to take the guesswork out of creating and launching an online course
You want a business that builds more flexibility and freedom into your life
You’re looking for an easy way to make a quick buck—this ain’t easy, and it ain’t gonna happen overnight (But it is SO doable if you’re willing to commit to doing the work!)
You don’t want to teach students, be a trusted mentor, or you're not willing to get visible online to market your course or grow your audience
You’re not willing to make the time to learn, practice, and implement the program material
You’re cool with building a personal brand and getting visible
You are a go-getter who is willing to show up, do the work, and push yourself a bit outside your comfort zone
You believe that all humans deserve to be treated equally and agree to be a part of our inclusive community where everyone is respected
- The ability to generate an unlimited amount of passive income in your business, for years to come
- A platform to reach hundreds (or thousands!) more of the right people with your unique message, every single month, without exhausting yourself with 1:1 sessions (or as a pre-requisite for 1:1 clients!)

Imagine the possibilities of what your business (and life!) will be like* after completing Coursemaking Academy:
