The Basic Equipment class went great. I was going to attempt to make these classes into paid courses. But, I've learned something.
If you hold a course, even on something people value and believe is worth the money, but don't get the money up front, you won't make a dime. I gave this course away and one third invited showed up.
So, putting the learning experience into action. I will host the courses as public services to our group and local groups like them. These classes will be donation only, all funds (FRN's, gift cards, barter items, chickens...) going into a slush fund for the groups I am active in. This will help fund group buys and other training, including sending members to other courses.
I won't be opening these classes to the public at large. A person needs to be vetted by myself or group members for attendance. The follow on classes will be in the Eugene area and surrounding suburbs.
If you would like to reach me for a consult or, to join in on classes, please email me through one of the links.
If you have ideas for courses you'd like to see, please email me.
Any questions of any kind, email me.
Starting to see a trend here?
I'll have the slide show in the store for download as soon as I get that portion squared away. Check the store for gear I approve of and other tid bits. I'll always tell you if I purchased it, or if it was given, or I am being paid to review it. We can't go anywhere unless we're honest.
