Who’s Behind the Newsletter?
Chris Badgett
Founder & CEO of LifterLMS
Chris has spent over a decade helping course creators, coaches, and educators build profitable online learning businesses. He’s the co-founder of LifterLMS, the WordPress LMS plugin trusted by 10,000+ websites worldwide, and the host of LMScast, one of the longest-running podcasts dedicated to the online education space.
Every week, he distills what he’s learning from running LifterLMS, talking to thousands of course creators, and studying what’s working in the education entrepreneur space.
That means the newsletter draws from real support conversations, product decisions, customer stories, and the patterns Chris and the whole LifterLMS team see across thousands of online course sites.
Chris is close to the problems course creators face every day. He sees the questions people ask before they launch, the issues they run into as they grow, and the ideas that help them build better learning experiences.
The newsletter turns that insight into useful weekly advice.
