I reached out to a blogger with a huge audience recently and asked him if he knew about a course called Start A Blog That Matters.
His reply: “Of course, that’s how I got started.”
I chuckled, thinking to myself, ‘this is going to make for a great intro to the announcement.’
Start A Blog That Matters was a blog training program that was created by Corbett Barr — he’s one of the founders here at Fizzle. The course went on to become one of the most successful blog courses in the world. Literally.
I’m telling you this because we have 2 very big announcements today.
Announcement 1: Start A Blog That Matters has been completely updated for 2016 and beyond. After editing and putting it together with Corbett I can confidently say there is no better blog training available.
So, that in and of itself is a huge deal. This is a course that transforms people from confused, exhausted wannabe bloggers into engaged, activated bloggers with a robust plan and a shit-ton of confidence because they plugged up the holes in their blog before it ever started taking on water. The update of this course is a very big deal and well lead thousands more to make blogs they are deeply proud of.
But, like I said, there are two announcements today and the second one is just as big… actually, I mean, this is bigger, right?
Announcement 2: the first group of students will receive completely free weekly coaching throughout the course. We already know the course is excellent (with multiple thousands of graduates), BUT your story, your blog, what you’re trying to accomplish is unique, so let’s hear what you’re thinking at every step of the way and we’ll give you our best advice so you can take action right away.
Note: if you want to come along you'll need to signup by July 19th.
Coaching through this course will help enormously because it can make your path to success much shorter. Think about it. A lot of us have an idea, we try it out, we go this way for a little while then we realize why it isn’t working so we change to a different direction. We do that over and over and that’s why everyone’s path to success looks so wiggly.
When you’ve got access to someone who’s already done what you’re trying to do, you get to learn the lessons without taking so damn long to figure it out for yourself. And in this particular situation, you get access to Corbett Barr who’s not only built Think Traffic and Fizzle, but he’s also played integral roles in building Live Your Legend, Man vs. Debt and more.
Ok, so, as a point in fact, here’s a quote from Leo Babauta, blogger and owner of one of the largest single author blogs in the world, TIME magazine top 25 blogger:
“Corbett’s ability to get to the heart of successful blogging is a rare gift. I’ve seen him transform a blog from blah to wow, start an amazing blog from scratch, and help countless new bloggers with intelligent insight into what makes a great blog tick.” ~ Leo Babauta
(Have I ever told you how lucky and proud I am to have Corbett as my business partner?)
Getting to have Corbett give you personal advice throughout the creation of your blog is a really big deal.
I will also be a part of the coaching for some of the sessions, and I’d like to think that being the designer of massive blogs like Smart Passive Income, Live Your Legend and Nerd Fitness give me some street cred as well, but I’ll let you be the judge of that.
But what’s the cost? Nothing up front, you get a 2 week free trial, and then if you want to stay on it’s $35 a month. About a dollar a day. That’s our promise at Fizzle: insanely effective, life changing small business courses, community and Q&A for less than your monthly coffee/booze tab. This coaching is just the icing on the cake.
So, below is a video that will give you all the details of the course and the coaching.

The Top 10 Mistakes in Online Business
Every week we talk with entrepreneurs. We talk about what’s working and what isn’t. We talk about successes and failures. We spend time with complete newbies, seasoned veterans, and everything in between.
One topic that comes up over and over again with both groups is mistakes made in starting businesses. Newbies love to learn about mistakes so they can avoid them. Veterans love to talk about what they wish they had known when starting out.
These conversations have been fascinating, so we compiled a list of the 10 mistakes we hear most often into a nifty lil' guide. Get the 10 Most Common Mistakes in Starting an Online Business here »
This is great, guys! Thank you for making this available. I have a a few questions:
1. I have full-time job, and most likely will miss some of the live Q $ A’s. I know you’ll send a recording but the whole idea behind this offer is free coaching, right? So, would there be an opportunity to still ask Qs and get the answers from either of you guys, Corbett or Chase?
2. Can the blog be designed around the podcast/interview-based content vs. written content?
3. I already have a blog that I haven’t written for in a while. I have an idea for another blog but not sure which route to take: continue/renovate/revive my blog or start a new one. It seems that one of them would be easier to monetize. Would I be able to run my ideas about both of them by you to get your opinion on that before I start?
Thank you!
Hey Anna, thanks for the questions!
1) We’ll have multiple opportunities to ask questions, not just during the live sessions. You can ask in the community forums, where Chase and I will be playing an active role, along with the great answers our community will also provide. You’ll also be able to email us or submit questions that we’ll cover during the live sessions (so you can get the full answer in the recordings).
2) Yes, you can start a blog that features mostly interview or podcast content. This course features lots of tips and strategies for becoming a better writer, but much of those sections can also apply to audio or video content as well.
3) Sure, email us anytime at [email protected] and our member success team will send the question on to whoever is best to answer it. We also have a full course in Fizzle aimed at helping you choose a specific topic. It’s part of the first assignment in this course, in fact.
Thank you, Corbett!
Hi Corbett – I have the same exact issues as Anna. (1) I want to sign up and have the free coaching, but am on the road from at end of july/early Aug and Internet connection wont always be available. Is this an issue? (2) I have a blog and over tge course of a year, I discovered my audience was different and now I need to either (a) create a new blog (b) revamp the first one. I haven’t been able to proceed as I am struggling to resolve this issue and really need a coaching session. Is it possible to discuss with your team in the coming days? I don’t want to be struggling with this in the miidke of the course. Looking foreard to your answer.
Hi Todd,
The coaching will run from July 20th to mid-September. We will send recordings of each session, so you could always watch when it is convenient for you.
Email us at [email protected] and we’ll do our best to help answer your question about either starting over or re-building what you already have.
Thank you, this is exactly what I needed to finally take the plunge! Just wanted to clarify: by buying this I also become a Fizzle member with access to all the other Fizzle training content?
Hi Erja, yes, absolutely, this coaching offer comes with all the other Fizzle membership privileges and access, including 40+ other courses and the community.
What if I purchased this in the past? I sure would love to have the updated version!
Hey Patty, just email us at [email protected] and we’ll give you an option to check out the new version.
Hey Corbett – I had signed up for Fizzle a few months ago and then cancelled membership as I switched jobs and couldn’t commit any time. I have more time now and want to re-enroll… the timing of this course is perfect. I just re-activated my account, do I get enrolled this course and then get charged the $35/mo?
Thanks!
Hi Akshay, yes, I see that you re-activated your account today. You’ll be charged the monthly membership fee ($35), and you’ll have immediate access to the new course and everything else in Fizzle. I also double-checked and you have been added to the coaching group. Watch for a welcome email from us about the coaching this evening.
Ok, thx.
If it wasn’t for my monthly cost of a course I am paying for over the next 10 months and a super tight family budget, I would be back as a Fizzler and signed up for Fizzle again and this Start a Blog that Matters revamped course with 10 coaching sessions with Corbett and Chase weekly (are you freakin kidding me?) in a heartbeat!!! If you are on the fence about this whole deal, please do not delay, this is one helluva deal! Sign Up!
I reactivate my membership for this course. I signed up several hours ago but haven’t received any emails with the course information. Do I just need to hold tight and wait until July 19th?
Hold tight! We’ll send a welcome email soon :)
Hi! Can I sign up with a mentor of mine’s affiliate link instead of the one here on your page and still receive the Build a Better Blog course free?
Signup however you like Julie, this course and coaching offer is available to all members.
That’s great Corbett! Thank you! I’m very excited to get it started!
Seems this course could work if my “blog” is written posts, videos or podcasts…do you agree?
I just reactivated my Fizzle membership. I would love to get into this course and the coaching. Do I need to do anything else to get added to the coaching group and course??
Hey Gary! Welcome back. All you need to do is click the big green button on this page while you’re logged in to Fizzle. That will add you to the coaching group, and you’ll get a welcome email from us right away.
