With folks being out of the office in droves, this in turn led to, an overall slow sales cycle for a large percentage of vendors in the learning system space. Back in the mid 2000’s and then again, around 2010-12, the summer was a dead zone for vendors. What does this have to do with purchasing a learning system?

If you have seen a learning system, any system, at a trade show, such as LTUK, or ATD (coming up), or on the web, or in your dreams, you start to notice a retread.

Vendors are a clever bunch of folks. Whether they are selling learning technology, content/courses, or even learning systems.
