Why do the work _before_ getting paid? Take out an ICO and let them "preorder" your course!

While you say this in jest, it is actually a good idea. The pre-sale part. Get a sense of a market need before you dive in.

Caveat being you've done the work to be able to add authentic value to the people you're selling too. (which is where most ico's break down)

The value is that the course itself is hosted on the blockchain. It's distributed and decentralized. /s
