Why Include Goals in Your Course? šÆ
Simply put, goals are a powerful tool to keep your students focused on the ultimate prizeāreaching the finish line.
Why is this important?
When students set their own goals and visualize success, they are nearly three times more likely to achieve the results you promise. Thatās why we built Goals into Xperiencifyāto help you harness the powerful psychological trigger of visualization.
The Magic Number: 3 Goals
Research shows that three goals work best to motivate the most students:
One Goal: If it's too easy, motivation drops quickly. Too hard, and it can be demotivating.
Three Goals: This range keeps students inspired, pushing them to do more and stay on track.
Thatās why we enable you to set three specific goals for your students right at the top of your membership site:
Minimum Goal
Target Goal
Stretch Goal
How to Set Good Goals š”
Minimum Goal
Set this goal to align with the Big Promise of your course. (Example: For our course EPM, it's to earn $2,000.)Target Goal
This should be a step above the Minimum Goalāsomething a little more challenging that inspires students to push harder.Stretch Goal
The "moonshot" goalāthe big, ambitious goal that could change their life if achieved.
Remember: Goals can be monetary or non-monetary and should be directly tied to the outcome of your course. Here are some examples:
Make $2,000
Replace my income and quit my job
Eliminate pain from my life
Meditate 10 minutes each day
Retire on an šļø
