We need to add some bits-and-bobs but it&#8217;s basically there. In fact I&#8217;d go so far as to say that everything that needs to be there, is there: the things we need to add are either bits where we&#8217;ve find places to give even more value by adding some new material, or places where we can improve the quality of the videos (for example).<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The initial feedback is done<\/span>. We field tested this on a bunch of volunteers! \u00a0 To a man an woman they loved the content! Some weren&#8217;t 100% convinced about some of the technical pieces, so we looked at that and decided to move the whole thing to a different hosing package. That took more than a few cups of tea to get done! ;)<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The structure is there<\/span>. After the Big Migration (to <a href=\"http:\/\/thinkific.com\">thinkific.com<\/a>) we&#8217;ve changed the structure and formalised it a bit more (following a bit more feedback. \u00a0 A completely drip-fed\u00a0content is the best way to deliver things, but that&#8217;s too frustrating for users who wanted it now, now, now!<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The proof-reading needs to be done<\/span>. As someone once said, being my proof-reader must be a bit like being Shane McGowan&#8217;s dentist &#8211; so much so that my usual proof-reader has gone on holiday to Italy to get away from it! :)<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The marketing still needs to be done!<\/span> \u00a0We&#8217;re working on that. If anyone has contact with any groups\u00a0they think would benefit from some presentations training let us know and we&#8217;ll sort you out with some special offer&#8230; I don&#8217;t now what yet, but let&#8217;s chat! :)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s only about six weeks until our new, online training package is live!
