Product & Service Educational Sessions
Our members are constantly asking for advice on which business tools, supplements, and products we recommend. The need for product and service knowledge is a constant conversation with our members. A great way to reach them is by providing an educational session. These courses must provide no less than a 80% learning component related to their field and up to a maximum of 20% product sales.
The topics must be relevant to our member community and are subject to review and approval prior to being presented.
Please note that we will not accept a full sales session and the split must be strictly adhered to.
You may teach this course for no fee if you offer an evergreen discount of 10% or more to our members. The discount must be in effect for a minimum of one year from the info session. This discount does not get shared with the public and is a member perk only. This is our most popular option as it benefits everyone involved.
