Why offer a syllabus?
Offering a syllabus to potential customers is a great way to showcase your course content and value.
If a prospect can view exactly what they will receive for the price, they will better understand what to expect in the course and what to look forward to in each module.
Offer a free trial period
A simple way to showcase what your course will contain is by offering a free trial period through the Offer. This will allow the customer to join the course for a set period of time without paying.
They will be automatically charged the subscription price at the end of the trial if they do not reach out to you to cancel their membership before that date.
How to offer a free trial period:
- Open the Sales tab from your Dashboard.
- Then, select Offers.
- Select the Offer you want to set up a trial period for.
- In the Offer editor, select the Pricing tab.
- From there, navigate to Price Details.
- Select Subscription for the Payment type.
- Enter your desired Payment amount for each recurring payment.
- In the Trial period days field, enter the number of days your trial period will last after purchase.
- Remember to click Save to save your changes:
Create a Syllabus Preview Page

Send an Automated Email after Form Submission
