Don't waste your time building a workshop
just to hear crickets when you open registration.
You daydream about leading your own online workshop, sharing your creative skills with students around the world.
But then reality hits. Tech intimidates you, you’re not sure how to start, and that workshop idea gets buried in ‘someday.’
You just don't have the time and haven’t had the push to finally launch.
You think you don't have a website or a big enough audience. It all feels so overwhelming.
You've been sitting on your workshop idea for TOO LONG.
Skip the stress of building a course nobody buys.
- You'll know exactly how to pitch your class with clear and compelling messaging.
- Your online storefront is open for business with a waitlist or registration page ready to go.
- A welcoming automated email sequence that guides your students to give you valuable feedback.
- A group of paid beta students ready to learn from you, before you've build a single lesson.
RIGHT NOW is the perfect time to build your workshop!
In just 30 days you could be welcoming real, pre-paid students into your online workshop.
How exciting is it to build the course that is exactly what your students want?
You KNOW this because they are right there, giving you feedback every step of the way!

Have PAID students ready and waiting for your workshop then build it WITH their input.
You’re an artist, crafter, quilter, or maker with something to teach.
You want to generate income from your knowledge and creativity.
You’re new to teaching or want to launch a fresh offer.
You want to launch before the holidays to capture project-motivated students.
You want support, structure, and someone walking the path beside you.
You are SO TIRED of waiting for "someday" and are ready to GET IT DONE!
You are already comfortable on live Zoom or recording tutorials and just need motivation to it.

- Tech Walkthroughs – tech tutorials so you’re never stuck on the technical stuff. (Lyric will be using the Zenler* online course platform - but if you already have a platform - use that!)

REAL TIME EXAMPLE AS LYRIC
BUILDS HER OWN WORKSHOP
What is the time commitment?
Each day includes a micro-action that takes 20–30 minutes. You can do it in your morning coffee time or during lunch. And if life gets in the way? You’ll have lifetime access to catch up later..
What if I miss a day and fall behind?
All lessons are recorded and added to your dashboard, so you’ll never miss a thing. You can watch anytime, on your own schedule.
What if I don’t even know what I want to teach yet?
That’s exactly where we start. Week 1 helps you define your audience, your transformation, and the promise of your workshop. You’ll come out of those first few days with clarity and confidence about what you’re offering.
What if I don’t have a big email list or audience?
Great! This is actually the perfect way to start. We’ll show you how to reach out to a small audience (even just 5–10 people), price your offer, and find your first beta students. You don’t need a crowd—you need a connection.
Will there be live support?
Yes! We’ll host a live kickoff call and a wrap-up session to celebrate and connect. You’ll also have access to a private, distraction-free community space (not on Facebook!) where you can ask questions, share wins, and get support anytime.
How long will I have access to the course materials?
Rewatch lessons, refresh your skills, and learn at your own pace. Anytime. You'll have access to the course as long as the Academy for Virtual Teaching exists.
Will we be building the actual workshop?
No. This is not about making slides or recording content. It’s a launch challenge—you’ll get your workshop into the world, with paying students, before building the content. (Then you’ll deliver it with your students, not for them.)
Do I need any specific software or apps?
Lyric will be creating her demo course on the Zenler platform but she encourages you to use whatever platforms you already have in place. Zenler is an all-in-one platform that can fill all your needs if you are a new online teacher and has a 60-day free trial period.
Is this only for quilters?
No. It’s for all visual educators. If you teach through hands-on demos (fiber art, painting, sculpture, etc.), this is made for you.
