If your business is shut down or you're just looking for new streams of revenue, a popular idea is course creation. This could be a course that showcases your knowledge on a subject, a course that is designed to complement whatever it is you sell, or a way to make money that does not involve an exchange of time for money.

But if you create a course you can bring in money even when you're not actively performing the service in which you get paid for.

Those days are long gone.
 
If you want your audience to see you--and you really need that especially now--then you're going to have to “pay to play.”
