It is well-known that selling an online course is a great way to supplement your income, or replace it altogether! However, the problem that most people face is that they don’t know if their course topic will sell.

Imagine, for a moment, that you are on a remote site doing work. To get work done, we are increasingly learning, that means working with others. Other people, and other information.

Giving your managers and leaders extra training on reviews is a good way to help them overcome the discomfort that often follows formal feedback situations. Indeed, soft skills like “coaching and providing feedback” are precisely the ones that many of today’s managers lack.

Not all videos are created equal. Some are engaging and interesting. Others…not so much. What is the secret sauce to making a great video? A lot of elements can certainly contribute, such as: good sound, short & sweet length, and a tight script.
