For solopreneurs looking to build an online course that truly transforms students, understanding the difference between transferring information and transferring skills is key.

In this episode, we introduce the Handoff Method, a simple three-step approach to course design that helps your students move from "I get it" to "I can do it."

You'll learn:

• Why most online courses fail to transfer actual skills
• The absurd way most courses are structured (and why we'd never accept it in other fields)
• The three steps of the Handoff Method: Me, Us, You
• A real example of this method creating a breakthrough for a student
• How to implement the Handoff Method in your own course
• How to use the Handoff Method in pre-recorded courses where you can't interact with students

Your students don't truly understand something until they've done it themselves. But they can't just jump to doing. They need to see it, practice with support, then own it. The Handoff Method gives you a simple structure to make that happen.

I'm Dr. Curtis Satterfield. I've been an educator and course designer for 17 years, and I help solopreneurs build courses that actually transform their students and grow their business.
