The Expert's Guide to Content Licensing: How to Grow Your Business

I want talk about a strategy that can truly take your consulting or coaching business to the next level – content licensing. This is for those of you who are established in your field with proven systems, methods, or frameworks that you know get results. If that’s you and you're intrigued by the notion of making your competition your clients, keep reading.

In the realm of content licensing, which I've discussed extensively and have hands-on experience with, something magical happens. Through licensing, you can scale your influence and income by allowing others to use your content. But before we go further, let me share a story from my own adventure with content licensing, which could help you look at your business from a whole new perspective.

Years ago, I found myself immersed in the baby planning industry, coaching new parents. But here's the twist – it wasn't truly my passion. Even after creating an entire industry, I realized my heart lay with business strategy. I had all these trainings, courses, and programs that I could choose to tuck away or monetize differently. It was then I decided to turn what could have been my competition into my clients by licensing my entire business infrastructure. As a result, I accelerated the growth of the parent coaching industry and, in the process, gained the financial freedom that enabled me to pursue other dreams.

Picture this for your own expertise. Whether it's one course or a series of trainings you're no longer passionate about, consider licensing them. This can be particularly effective if you're not using those resources anymore. It's a strategy that can rapidly expand your network, foster incredible business relationships, and ultimately allow you to scale without the grind of delivering the content yourself.

If you're sitting there thinking, "Okay, April, that's great, but I still want to sell my own courses," don’t worry – there's a method for that, too. Consider licensing your content to businesses with the same end user as you, but that aren't your direct competitors. For example, if you specialize in public speaking, you might license to a publishing company or a PR firm. This way, your brand is elevated, and you maintain the gold standard of your content.

Still, if you're on the fence and curious about how to bring this to life, remember that strategy is everything. It’s not about being sketchy salesy, but about seeing the extensive potential of your existing content. I am all about direct conversation infused with my experience – your intellectual property is gold and could open avenues of revenue you haven't even dreamed of yet.
