Hi Virgil, This is one of the clearest, no-nonsense steps I have read about launching a business or product. When I started researching what I could build and how to put it out, I hit a wall of content, and by the second point, I was lost. It comes down to the small steps...

When I read "10 Million in course sales" on Virgil's page I was a bit hesitant. We all know how many people flex fake numbers online. I still gave him a try because he gave out good vibes to me. And oh man, it was such an impactful decision. He gave me great guidance and advice while still going with the flow of how I wanted things to be. Even more importantly, he was there for me almost 24/7 for any questions I had. I felt like having him on my team rooting for me. If you decide to work with him, you won't only get a great advisor, but also a great friend and supporter. This is very rare. If you want to plan a course launch talk to Virgil.

Hahaa, Virgil's newsletter is one of the just THREE (out of probably 300) newsletters I've subscribed to and placed in a *special* folder called "Study Hard" Love the personality, love the branding, love the ENERGY! Oh, and the substance is top-notch too. 😎 Subscribe. Or don't. But you should. Because it's that good, ha.

Thank god I worked with Virgil for my first cohort launch. He steered me away from launching with terrible market timing. Connected me with other big accounts to promote. And advised me every step of the way. I likely would’ve made half the amount of money if I didn’t go with Virgil

Couldn't recommend The Building Block more. Not only does it provide raw insights into the business/sales life it helps to connect the dots and help make A to Z much clearer. This is a must read for anyone looking to seriously level up in multiple facets in 2023.

Hola amigo! Just wanted to stop by and say: 1. I love the newsletter! Definitely unlike anything I've ever seen. I'm usually not a fan of any newsletter that doesn't JUST text, but I've begun to love your little video icons things, haha. You do an amazing job! And not to mention your stories… 2. Congrats on your coming up, man! I've been seeing your name linked to a ton of big creators, so you're doing the right thing by getting yourself out there. Happy to see it.

I've been studying the creator biz model, and I love how simple (and effective) your welcome sequence is. Been creating my own, and I've complicated the shit out of it, so I can tell. I will be looking out for your work as I journey along the path. Have a good one.

Virgil is a stellar guide in a world of digital chaos. He stands as a beacon of guidance in the ever-evolving realm of online courses. His nuanced insight and no-BS wisdom transformed the daunting task of pre-selling my course into an adventure I grew to cherish.

For anyone seeking a coach to illuminate their path to online course success, look no further than Virgil from The Building Block. His expertise is invaluable, as is his fun presence. Thank you, Virgil, for making navigating digital sales waters an absolute joy. Here's to many more fruitful journeys. Cheers, Ricky

This is much more than a newsletter. This is chatting with a friend who says "hey am here to listen and help you every step of the way". The name is so apt because it takes you through every block of your journey and do not get lazy. You are building it. That is the beauty. You want to build your course? I will close my eyes and point out to Virgil.

Hey, Virgil! It seems like the content I follow reaches me in my exact time of need. I've been feeling Impostor syndrome lately. On Thursday, I launched a giveaway, and it got over 1.3k likes, and I now have 900 more followers than I had before it. I know I had a strategy to get to this point. From my engagement to the marketing days before and the connections, I made who retweeted it. Still, I feel like an impostor. Someone who got lucky. And now that I'm thinking about building an offer and what to charge, this comes even stronger. But anyway, I'll try these things you mentioned. I just wanted to share my experience. Thanks for the awesome email! Best, Marjorie

Virgil's course checklist is fantastic and helped me validate that I am on the right track. Everything in this checklist is exactly what I have covered in my course which I have already created, but seeing the points against the checklist helped to know if I was on the right track and it's comforting to know that I am from someone who is miles ahead. Thanks Virgil. Very helpful.

Hi Virgil. Just reaching out to say hi. I had a conversation on zoom a couple of days ago with Leo and mentioned your name and the positive impact you've had on him! I'm on a similar journey, but still figuring things out. Anyhow, hope to connect at some point. Cheers!

After stumbling into Virgil's content on Twitter, I'm super grateful that I was able to find The Building Block. From the very first interaction, I knew this was something to pay attention to. What I love about the things I've read so far is that Virgil's writings always leave you with something actionable to take away. All in all I'm grateful I added the building block to my daily stack!

Thank you so much for this course, Virgil. It has helped me to gain clarity and I'll start working on putting my own course out there. I recommend this course to anyone wanting to create his or her own course. It provides simple but magnificent steps to take.

Thank you for this peice. It was really impactful. It is almost like God sent you to me to tell me this because in the evening say around 3:50pm, I wanted to create a writing, and all the negatives thoughts were coming to mind. But after I did it and sent the writing, I realized that I had overcome something huge and I could also cry about it after. Thank you for this really. Now I know this, I will be more intentional and form callouses in my mind.

Virgil is like a goldmine. He has so much knowledge and experience and he is one of the most generous people I've ever come across. Always not only willing but joyful to share what he knows and thinks, and you'd be daft not to listen. Can't recommend highly enough for insights, business expertise and knowledge about building digital products.

Virgil is the real deal. Though we met via Twitter, I've got to know Virgil across multiple projects, and he brings incredible value. His advice on product development, course creation and marketing have been invaluable. He's super knowledgeable and insightful, and to top it all off, he's an incredibly nice person who makes work fun and enjoyable. I thank my stars the day we met, and recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their business and increase revenue.

Around that time, I happened to discover a guy who made over $10M in course sales. Who is that u asking? It's the one & only @thevirgilbrew. I hopped on a call with him, eagerly waiting for his advice on my pity situation. And he has blown my mind multiple times.

It should be illegal. There's a reason why Twitter is the only social media I use. Direct access to GENUINE Rockstars. And I had a call with one today - @Thevirgilbrew First, he is a really nice guy. And he'll give you 🔥 business insights.

Virgil's course checklist and previous resources that he shared were useful and actionable. Not many resources out here are actionable - many stay on surface level but Virgil is always overdelivering. Keep up the great work.

I had a great call with Virgil. The first question I asked him was - "Are you on vacation." He turned the camera around, showed me the sea and said 'This is where I live' I saw how FREEDOM looks. He changed my perspective in 20 mins. Now I am re-evaluating everything. You will see loads of changes in the coming days. He is your guy if you're serious about making passive income by creating a course.

Virgil mentored me while I was preparing for my first product launch. It was amazing. Not only does having access to so much experience and knowledge make a huge difference, but Virgil's energy is unmatched. He will make you achieve more in less time. You're not sure what you're truly capable of before you work with Virgil. Oh, and the product launch went great. 70 customers in 4 days.
