If you've been thinking, "I'd love to share what I know online, but I have no idea where to begin," this is your starting point.

In 5 days, you'll go from "I have no idea how to start an online platform or create a course" to a clear understanding of how an online business works, and a first draft plan for your own heart-centred online business.

Five short videos. Practical resources. One small step a day.

Sound familiar?

You're not the only one thinking it

"I's love to share what I know with others, but I don't know where to begin."

"I'm not techy, and the idea of having a platfrom seems crazy."

"There are so many platforms and tools. I don't want to waste money on the wrong one."

"I've started and stopped so many times. Maybe this isn't for me."

"I just want someone to show me, simply, step by step."

You don't need to be techy or have a business degree to get started! You just need the whole picture, explained simply.

...it's a lot more simple than you realise and I'll show you everything - no gate-keeping!

Here's what you'll learn

Five short videos, each with a simple resource. No tech skills needed.

Day 1

Start with your why

I'll show you why your intention comes first, and how to see your role as someone with knowledge to give. You'll also see how to build at a pace that fits your life and your season, not anyone else's.

Your small step: jot down your intention and a one-line vision for what you'd like to build.

Day 2

How it all works, behind the scenes

I'll pull back the curtain on the three simple parts of every online business: the people you help, what you offer them, and the place it all lives online. I'll walk you through the journey a student takes, from first finding you to joining your course, and explain the words you keep hearing, like "freebie", "email list" and "sales page". Plus a simple glossary to download for easy reference.

Your small step: sketch your own version of the journey.

Day 3

Building an audience

I'll show you how to picture the one person you're here to help, and why you're really in the business of solving her problem. You'll see why showing up in one place beats trying to be everywhere, and how a small free gift can help her straight away and lead naturally to what you offer next.

Your small step: describe your one person and jot down a free gift idea.

Day 4

Creating a course

I'll show you where to find your course idea (it's probably hiding in the questions people already ask you), the simple ways to test it before you build anything, and why small and finishable works best, for you and for her.

Your small step: write down your course idea and one way you could test it.

Day 5

Setting up your online platform

Now the tech, and it's simpler than it looks. I'll show you the three things you actually need: a home (your website), a way to stay in touch (email) and a way to get paid. You'll see the difference between all-in-one platforms and separate tools, and get my comparison table, including why I chose Kajabi and why it isn't right for everyone.

Your small step: tick off your setup checklist and note the option that suits you.

Future You

To finish, I'll help you look ahead. Picture yourself a year from now: what you're teaching, who you're helping and how your days feel. You'll leave with ideas, a simple plan, and the confidence that you can actually do this, in sha Allah.

Your small step: write a short note from Future You, and complete your Online Business 101 Plan.

Kate Hepburn
From one blog to platforms that serve the Ummah

salaam, I'm Kate

I've spent the last 10+ years in the Muslim online education space, working in health, wellness and personal development, and building online platforms that serve Muslims: websites, online summits, courses, coaching programmes, communities and more. First for my own work, and then helping sisters with their own knowledge to share.

Over the last decade, I've seen many brilliant Muslimahs get stuck between "I have something valuable to share" and "I have no idea how to create an online course or platform"

So I've decided to build bridge between heart-centred Muslimahs who want to share their knowledge and the strategy, tech and step-by-step guidance they need to launch

That's why this roadmap is simple. It's the clear, calm version I wish someone had handed me at the start.

Learn to see your online business as one simple whole
