The Opportunity – and the Problem

Many edupreneurs focus on what is typically referred to as a “business to consumer,” or B2C model for selling online courses. That can be a great opportunity – build a loyal audience of followers and you can continually sell them courses.

But you probably know the potential issue with this approach: you have to build a pretty sizeable audience or manage to sell your courses at a pretty high price for it to work. Both are doable – and most edupreneurs will want to continue to pursue this opportunity – but building your business course sale by course sale takes time.

So, what if you could sell a whole bunch of course enrollments at once?

This Course Container review covers how you let business customers host your courses on their own LMS while protecting and tracking your IP.

Are you a content provider and want an "edge" with your customers on how your content is delivered and stays current?

Course Updates - No longer will your customers need to load new packages when courses are updated by you, everything happens automatically.

Performance – Since the course content is streaming from our secure content delivery network (CDN) your users will notice the speed in how fast the course(s) load and how large files like videos play much better.

Course Size – Your customers will not have to load large course packages into their LMS, so you don’t have to worry about vendor file size restrictions.

Troubleshooting – Since you have visibility into user’s real-time course and browser usage, you can help your customers with troubleshooting if it arises.

Ability to Access Courses Through Buyer’s LMS

Many business – especially larger businesses – will already have their own learning management system (LMS) and will want to be able to deliver your course on that LMS. If you have built your courses on the typical solopreneur platform, that simply won’t be possible. Those types of courses can only be accessed on the platforms where they were built and they cannot be easily exported. (See Will your online course be held prisoner?)

There are a couple of solutions to this issue. The starting point for either of them is to build your courses in a tool that conforms to e-learning industry standards. This might mean an installed solution like Articulate Storyline 360 or a Web-based solution like isEazy. Either way, you create content that can be exported in a form that can be imported into any standards compliant LMS.

You then have a couple of choices.

First, you can simply zip up your course files and send them over to the business that licensed them. This can work – especially when you are just starting out and testing the viability of selling online courses to businesses – but it has obvious downsides. For starters, you are handing over your intellectual property (IP). You then have no real way of tracking usage and managing updates to your courses can become a real bear as you scale.

The second approach is much more scalable, secure, and trackable. Namely, you can use a “dispatcher” type platform like Course Container. This type of platform serves as a central repository where you store and maintain all of your courses. You then give your business clients the ability to “call” any courses they have licensed from this repository into their LMS.

A platform like Course Container enables you to manage and distribute your courses to multiple businesses from one central location.

On their side, it looks like they are hosting the courses themselves and they are able to track and report on usage just as if they were actually hosting the course. On your side:

You protect your intellectual property – the customer has no direct access to your files

You are able to make all updates in one place and have them immediately distributed out to all customers making use of the files that you updated

You are able to track usage of your courses on a customer-by-customer basis

Basically, you set yourself up as a course software-as-a-service business (C-SaaS) with all the potential benefits that being a successful SaaS business can provide.

Pretty exciting, eh?
