Pick a topic – 2 to 3 subtopics – 2 to 5 points to sub topics. 1 – 3 is a sweet spot.

Topic = 1 slide. Sub-topic = 1 slide. Point = 1 slide. Explanation = 2/3 slides. Example - 1/2 slides.General Guidelines: Topic - 60pt. Sub - 48pt. Point - 48pt. Explanation - 36pt. Example - 36pt.Text Slides are Bullet Point's, not scripts. 50 slides = 1 hour content. (Average)

Build 1 Presentation, but break it down. 1 presentation per section. We want to make course as close as one-on-one talking. Introduction, Lessons Learned, FAQ. (5 to 6)

Outline using simplemind. Build powerpoint slides. Back fill all the points with picture. Mic, Edit everything.

Like you are talking to someone specific. Imagine a person beside or in front of you. Slow down. Don't talk fast. You only have to good for 5- 10 minutes. Bullet points your talking points. And talk like you are telling a story.

Record all the way through the first time. Do not worry about anything. If you mess up, clap your hands. Rest and start again. No welcome backs or intro music and video. Record your topics and sub-topics 1st... then go back and record your introductions, lessons learned and FAQ. Over edit feels weird. Great is the enemy of good. People want to learn from people. Edit out Umm and Aghh

This isn’t your only shot…

If your course starts to get too big, am I trying to cover too much stuff?

Take the pressure off. Start by making a small course. 30 minutes? Yeah!

Let your course name itself.
