My guest today is Wes Kao, co-founder of Maven, a very popular
online course platform.

Wes and I talked about how to create, market, and teach an online
course and make $20,000 or more per cohort. I especially love
Wes’ frameworks about how to:

Build a spiky point of view to stand out with real examples
