Course FAQ

  • Absolutely! These workshops are specifically designed for beginners and intermediate users. Each session starts with the basics and builds up gradually. You'll get hands-on practice with step-by-step guidance, plus we provide all the setup instructions beforehand. The small group format (limited to 30 participants) ensures you get personal attention when you need it.

  • Great question! While the YouTube videos give you a foundation, the live workshops are completely hands-on and personalized. Instead of following along with a generic example, you'll work on your actual business challenges - whether that's your real presentation content, your specific survey needs, or your actual app idea. You'll get direct feedback, troubleshooting help, and customized guidance that you simply can't get from a recorded video.

  • We don't offer refunds due to the extensive preparation that goes into each personalized workshop session and the affordable $15 pricing. However, we're committed to delivering exceptional value and want you to have a great experience. If something doesn't go well or you're not satisfied with your workshop, please reach out to us with your feedback - we genuinely want to hear from you and will work to make it right for future sessions.
