What the break-even point tells you

The break-even point is the minimum number of sales needed to recover the time and money invested in creating the course. Each sale then produces a net contribution: the price minus the payment fees entered.

Test multiple scenarios before launch

Change the price or number of sales expected to see their immediate effect. A lower price usually requires a larger audience. A higher price may require a more in-depth offer and a more precise promise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why give value to my creation time?
