How To Get Your Email System Past First Gear With Expert Kay Peacey

"Just because someone’s great at marketing doesn’t mean they can teach."

When Jasmine Jonte invested in a high-ticket online course and discovered it was badly designed and nearly impossible to learn from, she had an epiphany: great teaching is a skill — and it’s one most experts don’t have. So, she used her background as a teacher to build a business that helps experts teach well, turning their brilliance into scalable, binge-worthy programs.

Jasmine Jonte is a former kindergarten teacher turned founder of a course creation agency. She’s helped build over 140 programs across more than 70 niches — from real estate investing to tarot to dentistry — helping experts turn their intellectual property into powerful learning experiences that actually get results.

WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT:
The real reason most online courses fail (hint: it’s not lack of expertise)
How Jasmine went from teacher to six-figure business owner with a 14-person team
The difference between being an expert and being able to teach effectively
The framework Jasmine uses to turn expert knowledge into curriculum
What to ask in market research interviews to truly understand your audience
The two pathways for experts: build a team or build a scalable offer
Why completion rates and student results matter more than flashy marketing
Using AI in ethical, efficient ways to streamline course creation
The surprising AI tools Jasmine uses in her own business

What Makes a Course Feel Binge-Worthy (Like Netflix) with Expert Jasmine Jonte

“When New Zealand won the America's Cup, it wasn’t the biggest budget that won, it was one key question: Will it make the boat go faster?”

That same philosophy drives Colin Clapp’s content strategy in a world now ruled by AI-driven search. If you’ve been told that SEO is dead, buckle up because Colin is here to explain why that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Colin Clapp has been in the content trenches for years, helping creators and businesses grow visibility through smart, structured content strategies. From traditional SEO to adapting to the rise of AI search, he brings experience, clarity, and actionable frameworks, like his One Click Content Optimization approach, that get results.

WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT
Why SEO is not dead—and what small business owners need to understand instead
The “table stakes” every piece of content needs (hint: meta titles and descriptions still matter)
How structure helps AI and traditional search engines find and rank your content
Why internal linking is crucial—and how to avoid content cannibalization
What schema is, and how it quietly powers discoverability (even if you're not a developer)
Colin’s “F1 car” analogy that makes optimization strategies finally make sense
The rise of AI search—and what it means for your content's future visibility
Practical ways non-techies can improve their site's structure and speed
