Education technology (ed-tech) is a growing trend in South Africa, and many people are starting to offer their own online classes. The one problem most people face is that they don’t have enough money to host their classes on platforms that provide them with visibility. Luckily, now tutors and professionals can host their classes on Teachable.
What is Teachable?
Teachable is a platform for creating and selling your own online courses. Rather than a place to take courses, it’s a tool for experts and businesses to package what they know into a paid course, complete with payments, student management and a branded course site.
Teachable courses range from Yoga, LinkedIn marketing, language learning to how to grow your business. The platform also offers coaching courses, membership options for customers and digital learning content downloads.
What you get
- Tools to build, host and sell online courses under your own brand.
- Built-in payments, checkout and student management.
- Marketing features like coupons and sales pages.
- Analytics on enrolments and revenue.
Our take
Teachable is a smart way to build a new revenue stream from expertise you already have, and it pairs well with a strong personal brand. If selling courses is core to your plan, choose a tier with low transaction fees so more of each sale stays with you.
