Have you ever spent months building a course… only to launch it to crickets?

You’re not alone.

Most course creators make the same expensive mistake: they build FIRST, validate SECOND.

By the time they realize the market isn’t there (or their positioning is generic), they’ve already invested 100+ hours creating lessons nobody wants.

There’s a better way

The Profitable Topic Finder is an AI-powered validation framework that helps you test course ideas in 10 minutes instead of wasting 3 months building the wrong thing.

Upload this skill to Claude AI, and you get instant access to a strategic advisor that:

• Transforms vague audience assumptions into 3 detailed personas with real urgency and willingness to pay
• Researches market demand with high-intent keywords and proof people are actively searching for solutions
• Analyzes your competition and identifies specific gaps your course can profitably fill
• Crafts your unique positioning statement using a proven formula that differentiates you
• Delivers a clear verdict with supporting evidence: High Potential (build it), Needs Pivot (adjust this), Oversaturated Risk (find narrower angle), or Insufficient Demand (try different topic)
• Provides actionable next steps regardless of which verdict you receive

Total validation time: 10 minutes.

Total guesswork: Zero.

How It Works

Step 1: Upload the Skill – Download The Profitable Topic Finder skill file and upload it to Claude AI (takes 3 minutes).

Step 2: Validate Your Idea – Tell Claude your course idea—even a vague one like “something about social media for businesses.” Claude will ask you a few strategic questions about your assumed audience and the problem you’re solving.

Step 3: Get Your Validation Report – In 10 minutes, you receive a complete 1-Page Validation Summary with:

• 3 Detailed Personas: Not generic demographics (“small business owners”) but specific people with urgent problems (“solo consultants who lose clients between projects because they don’t stay top-of-mind”)
• Market Demand Evidence: 5 high-intent keywords, 3 popular content pieces, and proof people are actively searching for solutions RIGHT NOW
• Competitive Gap Analysis: 3 competitors analyzed with their positioning, pricing, strengths—and the specific gaps THEY’RE NOT FILLING
• Your Unique Positioning Statement: A one-sentence “hook” that differentiates your course from everything else in the market
• Clear Verdict: High Potential / Needs Pivot / Oversaturated Risk / Insufficient Demand—with reasoning and evidence
• Actionable Next Steps: What to do immediately, whether you’re building, pivoting, or reconsidering

Step 4: Make Informed Decisions

You now have everything you need to decide if your idea is worth building—and exactly how to position it if it is. No more guessing. No more “I hope people want this.” Just evidence.

Who This Is For

Perfect for:

• Course creators with ideas but unsure if they’re viable
• Educators who’ve built courses that didn’t sell (and want to know why)
• Coaches helping clients choose profitable course topics
• Entrepreneurs who want to validate BEFORE investing months in content creation
• Solopreneurs tired of building things nobody buys

Not right for:

• People who just want to “create content” without validation
• Those unwilling to pivot if evidence suggests their idea needs work
• Anyone who doesn’t use or won’t use Claude AI (required for this skill)
• Those looking for a “magic button” that does all the work (you still need to make strategic decisions)
