If you’re thinking of taking an online or in-person course, make sure you’re not wasting your hard-earned money.\
I see it all the time. Courses offered to teach you this or that and promise you great results.
But too often, those promises are broken the minute you hand over your credit card.
Take for example, recent Facebook posts I see advertising a Facebook Ads course that will teach you how to create Facebook ads, generate leads and turn those leads into customers.
I’ve witnessed several Facebook posts promoting the same event, yet, according to the event page, only a couple of people have signed up - and one is the instructor.
So, you have to ask yourself.
If the course instructor can’t create ads on Facebook, generate leads for the course and then turn those leads into customers (i.e. course attendees), how are they ever going to teach you?
Because, if they can’t quickly fill up their event, and when I say fill up, I mean, at least get 4-8 people, they may not be the Facebook expert they say they are. Or the course instructor you need.
It’s one thing to promise a course will teach you everything. It’s quite another to not be able to do it themselves.
I post this simply to ask you to be very careful when looking for a course to take.
Spend the time to review the instructor’s qualifications and ensure that they have the necessary expertise.
Call them. Message them. Ask them what experience they have, how long they’ve been doing this and what their results are.
You can even ask them for references from other satisfied clients.
Do your homework. I don’t want you to get taken advantage of by courses or instructors who have no legitimate expertise or experience.
Perhaps that’s why we have the old saying,
“Those you do, do. Those who can’t, teach.”
