- Mt. Rushmore of Courses
[Reading Time: 6 minutes]
[Vibing Time: ∞]
I’ve invested $5,000+ in online courses over the last 3 years.
Not all have been worth it…
There are 4 of them have been worth 10x the admission price.
The learnings from these 4 courses triggered a complete paradigm shift for how I think and build businesses.
These are my Mt. Rushmore of courses, what you’ll learn, the outcomes, why you’ll love them too and why this combination is the modern MBA.
Mt. Rushmore of Courses
1. Visualize Value Training Bundle by Jack Butcher
The training bundle consist of two courses:
How to Visualize Value - teaches you how to turn your ideas into high-impact, unforgettable visuals that cut through the noise of the newsfeed.
Build Once, Sell Twice - shows how to package your expertise into digital products that work without you, to scale your influence, impact and income.
Price: $149
Outcome: By mastering the art of visualizing value, you're not just making things pretty; you're effectively communicating a complex idea in a simple and persuasive manner. This means you get to be noticed in an oversaturated market.
With build once, sell twice, you transform your business model. Instead of trading your hours for money, you're investing time upfront to create a product that can be sold over and over again.

3. Power Writing by Shaan Puri
Become 2x better at writing in 8 days. This is less of a cohort-based course and more of a 2 week concert. Shaan teaches the techniques and templates for writing killer emails, blog posts, and landing pages with the showmanship of a performer. Power Writing lessons:
Cold Emails that actually work
Landing pages that convert
Secrets to going viral
Pitching your brand without stumbling
Write banger headlines
Writing internal memos like Jeff Bezos.

4. The ContentOS by Justin Welsh
Build a content system. ContentOS is a practical system for turning 1 piece of content into dozens. ContentOS has simple techniques for:
Creating a content production system
Build a system to create multiple pieces of content daily.
Creating an inspiration file
Build templates to accelerate growth

Outcome: Stop overthinking content. Start publishing more in less time and work.
Transformation: I would spend hours on 1 big piece of content with little repurposing. All my effort was going into this 1 piece, but I was leaving a lot of on the table by not repurposing on other channels. ContentOS gave me the insights to set up a system to create newsletters, tweets and templates.
Why you’ll love it: It’s 55 minutes long, cutting straight to the value. You can get through the content and start implementing within 3 hours.
The Modern MBA
I consider this lineup of courses the modern MBA.
The modern MBA costs $1,349.
The average MBA costs $61,800. 45x more than the modern MBA.
Why this course stack is the Modern MBA?
It’s the combination of skills required to build an online business.
This package arms you to sell with words and visuals, create systems for production, package your experience into compelling offerings - all powered by audience and community.
It’s a great time to build.
