What is your biggest takeaway from EPM?
For me it was experiencing the course itself. Looking at the model that you've created and using some of the best parts of the course design in my own courses. For example, I implemented a secret google group, checkpoint tracking doc, weekly experience point type worksheet, videos, and redesigned my courses to focus on actual workplace experiences instead of information. I also adopted the birdseye view, and constant reinforcement of the mission. My courses are 100% improved because of being in EPM.
How did EPM help you become successful?
Because at this point other organizations market my course the value that EPM provided wasn't in that domain, but rather in the course design, course dynamics area. I also can come back to the video's and worksheets to build my marketing plan later in the year, so that I can expand my marketing scope beyond the organizations that I'm working with now.
How has EPM and your success impacted your life?
In addition to improving the quality of my course design and implementation, going through the program also reinforced some of the directions I was exploring on my own, and shortened my learning curve by a lot. I also decided early on the course was excellent and that I wasn't going to ask for the $ guarantee. That allowed me to work without pressure to meet artificial deadlines.
What has been the biggest change in your business?
Besides the quality and focus of my courses, I would say the biggest changes are yet to come. I think the advice to narrow my offer even more will build a stronger audience. I also know that I can do a lot more with the marketing modules going forward.
What are you most excited about moving forward with your Experience Product?
I feel like I just scratched the surface of what the course offered and I'm looking forward to going deeper into the material as I iterate myself to even greater success.
