Today we are going to share what to keep in mind before investing in a course or service. We’ll also briefly touch on whether or not that investment is worth your time and your money.  

There are many training courses and services available to help you build your business; it’s often difficult to navigate through them all. And, with many resources being available for free, there can be a question of whether or not the paid services are worth the cost. In this episode, we’ll offer you insight, advice, and questions you should ask before jumping into that next new course or service option! 

 

HERE ARE A FEW HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS EPISODE:

• Why you should look to the actual experts in your field. (Hint: anyone can say they know what they are teaching).
• Do your due diligence and research the coach/trainer offering the course or service. Look at their own business. Are they able to implement what they claim they can teach you?
• Some thoughts on seeking out former clients/students for testimonials.  
• Before making a purchase, consider the timing. Do you have the time to invest in the training?
• Know your motivation and consider your return on investment.
• Do you need a coach or a product or service? When hiring a coach may be more beneficial than only taking a course.
