Summary

Today’s question comes from JT. He owns a handyman business in Colorado and is looking for guidance as far as doing coaching and/or creating an online course. What advice can I give him? Do you have a question about online business? Record it at http://www.askpat.com/. In this episode I mention my book, Will It Fly? In it, you'll learn how to test your business ideas so that you don't waste your time and money. Check it out at http://smartpassiveincome.com/will-it-fly/ My course, Smart From Scratch, is relaunching soon. It’s a lot like my book, Will It Fly?, except you get more detailed information about you and your specific idea, and access to a community and me as well. Check out http://smartfromscrach.com to sign up for the waitlist; you’ll hear about it next time enrollment opens.
