Name your Online Course in 5 ways
If you have decided to launch an online course, it is worth dwelling on choosing the name.
(But generally speaking, any new names you have to choose are worth a look).
Your main goal is to choose a catchy name as soon as possible so that you can dwell on a slew of equally important decisions such as sales page, sales funnel, email list, content.
You’ll find hard to get started with this juicier stuff without having your baby baptized first.
What you need is a list of online course name categories with lots of examples for each segment. Whenever you think "Found it!" also make sure that:
Your mother or grandfather will understand what you are selling if you mention the name of your online course
It’s an easy name to remember
It contains at least one keyword that people can associate with what you sell
Sounds good? (If you are having dinner with people you've never seen before, do you think it's right to mention it?)
Your ideal student (the one who therefore has a need or a problem) seeing a banner with the name of your course will say "damn yes!"
You understand what you sell
Is it creative but not overly creative? (meaning you don't have to explain what you sell)
Let's start.
One: the goal
Each online course has a goal. The first category of names is the one that contains in the name itself the result that we are going to ensure with the course.
Just ask yourself, what do I teach? What will people who take my course learn?
\ Example:
Advertorial 101 Course - Rachel Mazza
Learn to Read Tarot - Ben Scott
Two: The picky
This second type is only the more specific version of the first type. Not only that, it also promises something specific, such as a monetary achievement or any target. Of course, use this second model only and exclusively if you are really super certain of your knowledge and the quality of the course you are offering.
\ Example:
Learn to write songs and earn tens of thousands of dollars - Cathy Heller
Be More Productive - The Art of Efficiency by Ashlin Writes
Three: I'll show you the path you will take
Showing your potential audience what the success of the course will be, by telling them exactly A to B, can be another winning strategy. This approach works because the potential student identifies himself in condition A in a totally transparent way and is therefore even more inclined to buy.
\ Example:
Microsoft Excel - Excel From beginner to Advanced - Kyle Pew
Turn your Etsy Shop into a Sales Machine - Lisa Jacobs
Four: I'll put my signature on it
Put your name on it. It certainly creates a lot of credibility and reliability. Very often it is easy to remember and has an immediate effect.
\ Example:
Five: The creative name
These courses have an almost cryptic name but enjoy a certain reputation. Why? Because they were launched by people who aren't on their first online course and can afford to build some suspense.
\ Example:
The power of subtitle:
You may want to consider including a subtitle, especially if you've chosen a name that doesn't explain immediately and in detail what your course will be about.
