Welcome to the audiobook experience of my book High-Value Offers: How to Create Desire and Turn Your Course Idea into The Dream Offer for Your Ideal Student.

In this part, you’ll help you write your story in a way that resonates with your offer and add it to your sales page. You’ll also see examples from my courses.
