2.16 How to test your course before launching

Show Notes:

Everyone knows how important it is to test your course before you open it to enrolments, however testing comes down to more than just poking around and making sure it is ok.

Here are the three things that I think you should be testing that you probably aren’t doing independently at the moment:

1. The content: Is the content understandable for your target market?   You want to find your ideal client – this is where beta testing comes in – and ask them to go through and do all or part of your course.   Is everything clear or are there some areas that are confusing?
2. The tech: The tester needs to work from beginning to end and test every button and link. 
3. The process and user experience:  This is going through the journey as you would if you were a customer or client of your program.  It also includes completing the payment process right through to the end to make sure it works the way you want it to work.  

 Action Steps:

Test!  

If you have a live program that is already running, this is a good opportunity to go back and make sure everything is running right.  

If you haven’t launched your course yet, this is your reminder to book in some time to test your program before launch date.   Remember, it is important to give yourself time to test your course and enough time to correct the issues as well.
