The challenge

Jason Murray, an art director with a large following, wanted to teach art direction and advertising through a structured, cohort-based course. He needed to validate demand, set pricing, and deliver live cohorts to paying students under the Modern Art Direction brand.

The solution

Murray ran cohort-based courses on Teachable, iterating on pricing and format across successive cohorts. He raised the price from $300 to $800 per person as the course proved out and refined live delivery.

Just last week [I] got a message from one of my students who was just like, man, I just got a new job, and just wanted to thank me because of the class.
