There are some websites where you can put your course to be found and purchased online or you could create a webinar where you only have to record it once but could charge people over and over for admission.

In my opinion, a better option would be to figure out the marketing side and just hire someone with training experience to run the workshops for you.

For example, even if you charge $99 per person and can get 4 participants for a one day workshop, you could afford to pay someone $20/ hour and still come away with over $200 profit.

If there are 4-5 towns you could manage this within an hour and a half or so driving distance. You could have the same workshop 4-5 times per week and give that person a full time job. I know people intelligent enough to run these workshops that have driven farther for less pay.

Before getting way too far ahead of ourselves tho, I believe finding ways to have more participants and/or being able to charge more per person would be the first place to look when thinking of increasing profits.

There is a lot of good and affordable courseware out there, check out one of Gordon's previous replies in this thread. Why even bother creating a course? From what i'm seeing it would be easier and faster to find out what courses people in your area are looking for and find it already professionally done and like Gordon said go the plr route.
