I made a free Marketing course for Indie makers, based on 5 years of experience

Heyy!

I just released a free marketing course (in beta) specifically aimed at Indie Makers! And yes, it's 100% free!

It's not a "50 hacks to grow your startup" and it won't magically make your startup profitable, but it should give you enough foundation to get a better picture of marketing 😄

It will teach you:

  • How to understand precisely your target customers (and verify if you're right)
  • The basics of distribution channels to promote your startup
  • Designing experiments to improve your sales

This is based on my 5 years of entrepreneurship, 30 projects shipped, and numerous failures (and also some successes!)

The course is in BETA because I'll add more topics on the go based on the feedback I receive.

If you want to take a look, you can get it on TheIndieMarketer.com

I hope it can be useful! 😄

    Hey @Jeannen, since the article is free (optionally) it might not hurt to have a donation suggestion section at the end e.g "if you didn't pay but got value and would like to support, then click here to donate"

    Hey, just finished reading it all. I really loved the marketing funnel and experiments topic! The visual explanation and system behind it made it really easy to grasp.

    Since I work in marketing, I can agree with everything you wrote. I even found a couple of new ideas and it was overall a great revision.

    Thanks!

    Hey what is your motivation for making this course?

    1. 2

      So, at first I wanted to make a course about advertising to promote an app I'm making (OpenForAds.com) but I realized I had to teach the foundations first, so, I made a standalone marketing course to give as a reference when I'll make the advertising course :)
