At our store, we realized we needed an online presence to bring more customers in. We tried just creating an Instagram page, but we quickly realized we didn’t really know what we were doing. So we had our employees take a quick online course and learn about e-commerce, then asked them to use what they learned. Soon enough, people were coming in asking about something they saw on our page. Sales have also gone up. At this point, we ask all new employees to learn about e-commerce when they start. It clearly helps.   - Employer speaks

Start a catering business, 100% of the time

The Internet has revolutionized the way we look at sales. Social media and online shops are at the top of the world right now, determining visibility and profits. With that said, the future isn’t set in stone. AI technology has the potential to make a significant impact. Also, putting tech aside, there’s a surprising number of people going back to old-school shopping and seeking the authenticity of personal contact. All in all, the sales world keeps shifting and changing. Successful salespeople keep an eye out for new market shifts and stay educated on latest techniques and methods.

I like my shop. I had fun creating it and I have fun running it every day. But it’s more than a hobby. That’s my livelihood – and I need to turn a profit in order to survive. This course completely changed the way I look at things, and showed me how to fix a few things I didn’t even know I was doing wrong. My profits have gone up and my online store now sells almost as much as my brick and mortar location. The best thing? It’s almost completely automated, and does most of the work by itself. I never would’ve known how to do that before. If anyone’s wondering if they need an online course, trust me: it helps.   - Ex-student speaking
