Launch Your Course Like A Rockstar – Interview with Troy Dean WPCP: 101 - a podcast by Kim Doyal

You know how there are those people that when you talk with them initially you feel like you've known them forever?

And then every time you talk with them you walk away with a smile on your face and know your day was made better because they were a part of it?Yea... that's Troy Dean.

Oh... and besides being a great guy and ridiculously fun to talk with, he knows how to create and scale a profitable online business.Which is why I was super excited about talking with him about his latest venture, Rock Star Empires.
Yep, a Course about Courses.Troy has plenty of experience (and more importantly data) on creating successful online courses.

Many of you probably know Troy from WP Elevation (which started as on open-ended community/membership and shifted to a course) or Video User Manuals (a WordPress plugin that you can install in your site with step-by-step WordPress tutorials).Troy's focus these days is the online education space... and he explains how he transitioned into that (while keeping the other businesses running). And of course we had a ton of fun.
