Webinar Course Launch Strategy

A framework for launching and selling online courses using webinars and affiliate partnerships, based on Amy Porterfield's proven strategies.

Core Webinar Strategy

  • Webinars work for all price points ($97-$2,500)
  • Can be profitable even for lower-priced courses ($97-200)
  • Example: Amy did 200+ webinars for a $97 course with great success

Affiliate Partnership Structure

  • Recommend 50/50 revenue split with affiliates
    • Traditional/old school model that still works best
    • Some trending toward 30-40% but 50% is optimal
  • Can be a major revenue stream
    • Can become second largest revenue stream
    • Potential for millions in affiliate revenue

    • Annual launch model
    • Estimated $3M+ profit annually for 10+ years
    • Continuously improves marketing but keeps core content
