First #skillshare course completed

This morning I signed up for a Skillshare trial after Mailchimp tweeted about it. I’m already a huge fan of Mailchimp so my expectations were set pretty high. Skillshare on the other hand, I first heard of today. Their mission is “to unlock the world’s creativity”, and they’ve built up an impressive library of video tutorials taught by creators from around the world. Mailchimp’s addition is of course within the fields of email marketing, but when I signed up I was presented with literally hundreds of other options. I saved a lot of videos for future reference, but I also did do one course immediately: Top Google Local Search Rankings by Christine Maisel.

Mastering Google+, local pages and Google My Business have always been a struggle for me. With my attention span it’s just too many different things for me to sort out. The biggest issue has been the local businesses: an endless mix of stores, franchises, closed businesses and duplicates that someone else owns the rights to. But now I think I’m finally beginning to grasp how to tackle it, at least where to start. So thank you Skillshare and Christine!
