Ali Abdaal, a former doctor, was able to make six figures with his first online course launch using the Belief Building Marketing framework.

The Belief Building Marketing framework was developed by Billy Broas, who partnered with Tiago Forte to write the marketing book they wish they'd had when they first struck out on their own. Billy's experience with his NASA brewery, which was complex and malfunctioning, parallels his experience in marketing, where he saw many smart people attempt marketing only to watch their best efforts go up in flames. He realized that the best solutions are simple and elegant, and that's what this framework is all about.
