[00:00] Anyone can ask JGBT to teach them
[00:02] anything these days, right? Do you think
[00:04] what Teachable does too has ended?
[00:07] [music]
[00:12] We sat down with Teachable’s managing
[00:14] director, head of sales, and head of
[00:16] product marketing and partnerships. We
[00:18] asked them the things most company
[00:19] videos never cover, where they’re
[00:21] placing their bets, and whether any of
[00:23] this still matters in an AI world. This
[00:26] is what they said.
[00:31] Short [music] question, short answer,
[00:33] absolutely yes. People need education.
[00:35] People need need learning path. People
[00:37] need um people with experience [music]
[00:39] sharing those experience, those learning
[00:41] with them. So I really believe AI came
[00:43] to accelerate to help teachable as a
[00:46] concrete, solid, [music] stable,
[00:48] reliable tool to help and be a partner
[00:50] of AI. But I [music] don’t see teachable
[00:53] became obsolete or useless. Absolutely
[00:55] not. Specifically around education. Are
[00:57] you seeing competition with AI or are
[00:59] you seeing that more as an ally? How
[01:01] you’re approaching it?
[01:02] >> I use AI to challenge myself sometimes
[01:05] to open [music] my own mind. So I use AI
[01:07] to bring more knowledge, challenge
[01:09] myself and offer the best to [music] my
[01:11] students, to my followers. But I don’t
[01:14] believe AI is going to replace my own
[01:16] critical judgment, my personality, my
[01:18] way of teaching [music] and my own
[01:20] experience. Only myself. I’m I’m the
[01:22] owner of my story. I know how I can
[01:24] share my own knowledge [music] with my
[01:26] students. AI can never replace that.
[01:28] >> Exactly. How about you, Olivia? Do you
[01:30] use [music] LLMs? And have they replaced
[01:33] the humans in your life?
[01:35] >> They have not replaced the humans, but I
[01:37] definitely use it every single day in
[01:40] many different contexts. For example, I
[01:42] took a time management course a couple
[01:44] years ago because I really was
[01:45] struggling to navigate [music]
[01:48] all these different priorities and
[01:50] figuring out how to make it all work.
[01:51] and I did it through a coaching program
[01:53] where she had a course component to it,
[01:55] but I also got to meet with her and
[01:57] that’s what AI can’t [music] replicate.
[01:59] Like I think that creators, educators
[02:02] will continue um to provide high value
[02:05] experiences. [music] And then also the
[02:07] accountability, right? Like I could type
[02:09] into Chachi PT, hey here’s my calendar,
[02:12] help me fix this and then do nothing
[02:13] with it. But I had to meet with her
[02:15] every week and check in. How’s that
[02:17] going?
[02:18] >> Expecting.
[02:19] >> Exactly. did you actually change that
[02:21] behavior? Um, so no, I think uh it only
[02:24] makes Teachable that more valuable
[02:25] because I think it is increasing a
[02:27] hunger to learn and I think as a
[02:30] platform, Teachable has the ability to
[02:32] allow the creator to do what [music]
[02:34] they do best, develop the content, hone
[02:36] their expertise, build their in
[02:39] intellectual property. It’s on the
[02:40] platform to support with the delivery of
[02:42] that to meet the student [music] needs.
[02:44] And I think that’s where Teachable
[02:45] really has the opportunity to help
[02:47] creators continue to succeed. What you
[02:49] just said about accountability is
[02:50] massive for me. Uh that for me is the
[02:52] main driver [music] of learning. I I
[02:54] like to say that I need someone who’s
[02:56] depending on me, who’s putting faith on
[02:57] me, hopes in me. [music]
[02:59] So then I everybody has a busy schedule
[03:01] nowadays, right? So competing against
[03:04] [music] the amount of stimuli that we’re
[03:06] all getting every single day is insane.
[03:08] We really need that human bonding and
[03:11] relationship uh almost [music]
[03:13] emotional load that comes with learning
[03:15] expectations. um that I believe
[03:18] teachable [music] empowers creators to
[03:20] have and exercise at scale.
[03:22] >> I agree. I also think when you put the
[03:23] learning into practice, [music] it’s in
[03:25] person, it’s in connection, right? So,
[03:27] if you’re doing all the learning in this
[03:29] humanless void and then have to put it
[03:31] into practice with people, that’s going
[03:33] to cause so much friction because you’ve
[03:35] never experience the push back or the
[03:37] question or the response to how you’re
[03:39] positioning something. [music]
[03:44] Main driver for me is flexibility.
[03:46] [music] I need to learn on my own
[03:48] schedule and because I don’t have a
[03:51] predictable reschedle. Sometimes I
[03:53] cannot join simply formal education 5 to
[03:56] 7:00 p.m. It’s the worst moment of my
[03:59] day. Actually, it’s bath time, dinner
[04:01] time, lunch box for tomorrow time. So, I
[04:04] really need a flexible schedule. I need
[04:05] to know that I need to know that
[04:07] knowledge is there, lessons are there, I
[04:09] can ask questions, but I need to have
[04:11] the flexibility to create my own
[04:13] schedule and fit into my routine.
[04:14] >> I think it is the performance element
[04:17] for me. Uh part of my role is public
[04:20] speaking, working with people in person.
[04:23] And so what I’m doing behind the scenes
[04:25] in practice is warming up for okay,
[04:27] you’re going to be on stage to deliver
[04:29] this or you’re going to be in
[04:30] conversation um with a partner and you
[04:32] need to um come to the table like you
[04:35] know what you you know what you’re
[04:36] talking about. Um so I think the
[04:38] performance element is huge for me, but
[04:40] I also love mastery. Um I love going
[04:43] deep into a topic. I love looking at it
[04:45] from 50 different perspectives. Look
[04:47] what just happened here. like it’s just
[04:49] three people but three people with very
[04:52] different learning styles. Right?
[04:54] [music] So at Teachable we like to say
[04:55] that we value nonlinear learning paths
[04:58] and ultimately what it means is what
[05:00] just happened here.
[05:00] >> Exactly.
[05:01] >> When a creator produces something of
[05:03] course they’re going to do on their own
[05:05] style, their own preferences, their own
[05:07] formats that they like best where they
[05:08] feel more comfortable. There’s people
[05:10] who really spike in writing skills,
[05:13] people who spike in public speaking,
[05:15] people who like video better, short
[05:16] form, long form, and so on. Ultimately,
[05:19] [music] our role as a platform is to
[05:21] take that raw material and spit [music]
[05:24] it out in so many different formats that
[05:26] cater to the students needs cuz we’re
[05:28] all different. I [music] think uh in the
[05:30] past we talked about creators aiming for
[05:33] a more Netflix style way of presenting
[05:36] things. I would claim actually [music]
[05:38] it’s now Tik Tok super dynamic highly
[05:42] personalized algorithms uh really led by
[05:45] the center of gravity in my opinion is
[05:47] really shifting from the offer [music]
[05:50] from the creator into the student. I
[05:53] think we’re seeing uh a rise of the
[05:55] student being the center of attention
[05:57] [music] really triggering this journey
[05:59] and so so us as a platform we really not
[06:03] only we fundamentally believe in that
[06:05] but I also enjoyed that
[06:11] speaking
[06:12] we’re now making a transition a more
[06:14] intention transition to the corporate
[06:16] learning environment right how did you
[06:18] learn when you started your career Anna
[06:20] did you wish that you had a teachable
[06:22] back I would love to have a teachable
[06:24] when I start my career because I would
[06:25] make way less mistakes. Uh I started my
[06:28] career out of college straight to
[06:30] management consulting but I work in an
[06:32] environment that was always investing in
[06:34] people. It wasn’t the norm
[06:36] >> 20 years ago. Right now I see something
[06:38] changing and I think it’s absolutely
[06:40] fantastic to see companies really
[06:42] investing not only in employee retention
[06:44] but also on the professional skill. And
[06:47] recent studies show that employees in
[06:49] the workforce, the traditional
[06:50] workforce, they value professional
[06:53] development more than salary. So it’s
[06:55] something even connected to the value
[06:57] proposition of your brand. You know, you
[07:00] know, go to campus when you go to campus
[07:02] to hire talent, you can say, of course,
[07:04] we have competitive salaries, but we are
[07:06] a company that really is going to we’re
[07:08] going to invest in you. We’re going to
[07:09] invest in your skills. We’re going to
[07:10] make you thrive. We want to we want to
[07:12] see you succeed. companies doing that
[07:15] are attracting talent, retaining talent
[07:17] and seeing careers in a more sustainable
[07:19] [music] way. And I think for this new
[07:21] generation that really change jobs
[07:23] quickly, they don’t want they don’t stay
[07:25] 5 years in a company anymore. They
[07:26] really want to absorb more
[07:28] opportunities, changing sectors, career
[07:30] transition, when you invest in people,
[07:32] you see return of investment in your own
[07:35] workforce staying longer.
[07:36] >> Exactly. Olivia, have you been through a
[07:39] corporate learning moment? How was that
[07:41] for you? Yeah, I’ve taken a few
[07:43] different paths towards learning inside
[07:45] of the corporate experience. I think
[07:47] when I started out my career, it was in
[07:49] an industry that I had zero background
[07:51] in. My degree was in journalism. My
[07:54] first job was a benefits coordinator in
[07:56] HR. So, I was able to learn from a
[07:58] mentor, the person that I was reporting
[08:00] into. And I soaked up all of the
[08:03] information, but something that I
[08:04] recognized was I wasn’t finding myself
[08:06] wanting to go find external resources to
[08:08] learn more, figure out how I leveled up.
[08:10] And to me that signals maybe you’re not
[08:12] on the right path. Maybe this isn’t the
[08:14] right career for you. I think there’s so
[08:16] much value from a learning by doing and
[08:18] also learning from other people who have
[08:20] charted that path. The hack that you
[08:22] have by being able to learn from people
[08:23] who have already done the thing uh is
[08:25] unmatched.
[08:29] [music]
[08:30] As you talked about your corporate
[08:32] learning experiences, you mentioned
[08:34] larger corporations. How do you see the
[08:37] future of learning for SMBs small
[08:39] businesses that don’t really have a lot
[08:41] of budget and so how does creator
[08:45] economy mashed up with AI can unlock
[08:48] further value for especially it’s
[08:51] absolutely a good place and [music] a
[08:52] good timing to be an SMB because you
[08:54] have companies or tools like teachable
[08:57] you don’t need a large investment to
[08:58] build a learning platform for employees
[09:00] you can own a bakery [music] and you can
[09:03] have 25 employees but you need to learn
[09:05] them how to deal with your [music] daily
[09:07] work. You can’t teach them
[09:08] >> processes with your customers, the level
[09:10] of service they expect. Right? [music]
[09:12] >> In the past, very small companies, they
[09:15] couldn’t rely on platforms for learning.
[09:17] [music] They they need to outsource
[09:19] everything. Tools like Teachable, it’s
[09:21] absolutely perfect for even small
[09:22] companies. They don’t have large
[09:24] budgets. It’s very easy to organize to
[09:27] put [music] something into a screen and
[09:29] ask your employees to go through the
[09:30] training the development can be
[09:32] compliance can be sales can be something
[09:34] very technical for [music] SMBs I think
[09:36] it’s even easier now with companies like
[09:39] teachable
[09:39] >> and do we have those in the platform
[09:41] already
[09:42] >> absolutely teachable right now is
[09:43] offering services and learning solutions
[09:45] to companies from any size [music] we
[09:48] have companies relying on us to train
[09:50] security systems for example security
[09:52] [clears throat] trainings for people
[09:54] working uh literally on the roads. They
[09:56] need to deal [music] with harassment
[09:59] from trucking drivers. Sales team need
[10:01] to go through [music] sales training
[10:03] constantly. We have retail companies
[10:06] rely on us to help [music] us. We have
[10:08] marketing companies rely on Teachable to
[10:10] work better with journalists. [music]
[10:12] So, it’s a PR tool. The use cases go
[10:15] from fashion to food to education
[10:18] >> to upskilling to changing careers
[10:21] internally. Everything related to
[10:23] welcome your workforce, develop your
[10:25] workforce and retain your workforce
[10:27] regardless of the sector, the industry,
[10:29] cohort, seniority, we have a solution
[10:31] for you.
[10:34] [music]
[10:37] I feel like there’s a ton of
[10:38] conversation about vibe coding, building
[10:40] your own tools. Um, everybody’s a
[10:42] software developer now. Um, why wouldn’t
[10:45] somebody just go and vibe code uh a
[10:47] Teachable instead of using the platform?
[10:49] VIP coding is a phenomenal tool that
[10:52] allows people to move from idea to
[10:55] prototypes very very quickly but it gets
[10:58] you 80% there. Any of those solutions
[11:01] are more [music] aimed to a consumer not
[11:04] really an enterprise. And when we think
[11:07] about a creator or a [music] company
[11:09] being an SMB or a large enterprise
[11:11] especially, there’s certain security
[11:14] parameters, certain stability parameters
[11:17] that you need to respect. Ultimately,
[11:19] it’s your brand at [music] stake, right?
[11:21] And your intellectual property. You
[11:23] don’t want to put years of experience,
[11:25] years of your knowledge base into some
[11:28] platform that you don’t even know how
[11:29] this information is going to be scraped
[11:31] [music]
[11:31] or you’re going to let anyone touch your
[11:33] money. I wouldn’t. So I I continue to
[11:35] believe in in more established
[11:37] platforms.
[11:42] >> So a good question that we got here.
[11:44] What’s the single product bet you’re
[11:47] most excited about [music] in the next
[11:49] 12 months?
[11:50] >> Uh we touched on that as we talked about
[11:52] the learning different learning profiles
[11:54] that exist even in this [music] square
[11:56] meter. Sorry I don’t do feet.
[11:59] uh but only in in this space [music] we
[12:01] have very different perspectives and
[12:04] imagine that it scales [music] you’re
[12:06] talking to thousands of students
[12:07] millions of students right so I’m really
[12:10] excited with learning paths and creating
[12:12] more of this customization [music]
[12:14] of allowing people to really chart their
[12:16] own course mix and matching different
[12:18] pieces of content [music] starting in
[12:21] different places but something that used
[12:23] to bother me a lot usually you start a
[12:25] course in the same place and you come
[12:27] from very different backgrounds sounds,
[12:29] very different previous context, very
[12:31] [music] different intents. I want to
[12:34] learn French because I when I go to
[12:36] Paris, I want to feel more of the vibe,
[12:38] more like a local. Exactly. There’s very
[12:40] different applications of the same
[12:42] subject. [music] So, as we build
[12:43] learning paths and really allow people
[12:45] to start where they want, get a better
[12:49] assessment of the things that they
[12:50] already know and what they want out of
[12:52] that that experience and ultimately
[12:55] create really a [music] tailored
[12:56] solution. That’s the thing that I am
[12:59] particularly passionate about.
[13:00] >> Yeah, I agree. I think today we really
[13:03] expect anything we engage with [music]
[13:06] to be meeting our moment. Um like we
[13:10] joke that we’re in conversation and then
[13:12] the Tik Tok ad comes up seconds later
[13:15] and like while the joke there is that
[13:18] that’s spooky, it’s also like really
[13:20] nice that the things that I’m getting
[13:21] are actually relevant to me and it’s
[13:23] created this expectation. And so the
[13:26] piece that I love about that is being
[13:27] able to unlock those insights for our
[13:30] creators about their students. So
[13:33] creating the entry moment where the
[13:35] student delivers here’s my learning
[13:37] style or here’s what I want out of it.
[13:39] the opportunity that that that opens up
[13:41] for the creator to enhance the
[13:43] experience strengthen that relationship
[13:45] especially because we see that um top
[13:49] creators are focused on figuring out how
[13:52] can I provide more value to my existing
[13:55] users. It’s not just an audience growth
[13:57] game. Um, and the way to accelerate that
[14:00] is to have more information about your
[14:02] students to understand after I take this
[14:06] casual French class, what’s the next
[14:08] right step that my students are
[14:09] expecting so I can craft that course
[14:12] instead of guessing what should come
[14:14] next. And I think the more that we can
[14:15] automate that and gather those insights
[14:17] in ways that make it really easy for
[14:20] creators to understand what to build
[14:22] next, what to implement, um, I think is
[14:24] only going to help them be more
[14:25] successful. [music] I love that you
[14:27] mentioned that because a common
[14:28] misconception that we hear from creators
[14:30] that you need [music] to produce 50
[14:31] hours of a course of video and so to
[14:34] have something minimal and worth of
[14:36] monetary value that’s a [music]
[14:37] misconception completion right I think
[14:40] the other piece that we’re talking about
[14:42] here is it’s not about the win is not
[14:44] starting from the beginning and getting
[14:45] all the way to the end the win is I have
[14:47] this problem this piece of information
[14:50] unlocked me so I could move forward um
[14:53] and so being able to help creators ers
[14:56] um deliver the content that speeds up
[14:58] the learning outcome moment, the aha
[15:00] moment for their student um is the way
[15:02] that they’re going to continue to add
[15:04] value.
[15:08] I love the misconception for creators
[15:10] and that brought me to a very good
[15:13] question that I would love to go deeper.
[15:15] Um what’s the most common reason
[15:17] creators usually fail? And so first of
[15:20] all for me it’s fear of judgment. M
[15:23] >> no you have to put your face out there
[15:25] and share your experience [music] and
[15:27] people are so afraid of judgment
[15:29] especially from friends from family from
[15:32] co-workers just stop let go
[15:35] >> nobody cares actually nobody cares just
[15:37] do for you
[15:38] >> the second thing I really believe they
[15:40] think the first launch the first product
[15:42] is going to solve all the problems your
[15:45] first product is going to be very very
[15:47] bad do it anyway do it anyway you need
[15:51] to test your methodology your way of
[15:53] ditching um the appetite of your
[15:55] audience if you’re hitting the right
[15:57] persona. So just launch and do it.
[16:00] Actually, if your first launch of or
[16:02] your first product is a success, you’re
[16:04] late. You’re very late to this party.
[16:07] And once you do it, my third piece of
[16:09] advice would be consistency. Just keep
[16:12] doing. There’s a lot of good competition
[16:14] out there. I see many talented creators
[16:16] with good ideas posting content for
[16:18] three months and then uh that’s too
[16:20] difficult. Yeah. So fear of judgment,
[16:23] [music] lack of consistency and striving
[16:26] for perfection is the three biggest
[16:28] traps that I see creators failing and
[16:30] they need to overcome this. Go [music]
[16:32] as soon as possible have the consistent
[16:34] and have guards to put your face out
[16:36] there.
[16:36] >> Definitely. I think part of it is an
[16:40] identity thing. Um I think a lot of
[16:42] creators that I talk to are [music]
[16:46] hesitant to commit to an identity. If
[16:49] you look at the entrepreneurship founder
[16:51] space, so often the original idea of the
[16:54] business is not the thing that becomes
[16:56] the unicorn, right? So I think if
[16:58] creators take that same perspective of
[16:59] the first thing you’re putting out
[17:01] there, you agree will not be the thing
[17:04] that’s here a year, 2 years from now,
[17:06] but like you have to put something out
[17:08] there to get the feedback that you need
[17:10] to iterate and build the thing that your
[17:12] community and audience actually wants. I
[17:15] think not being so attached to what the
[17:17] end result looks like gives you the
[17:19] space and flexibility and freedom that
[17:21] you need to actually create the powerful
[17:23] impact thing. A willingness to be bad is
[17:27] critical for being a creator. You have
[17:30] to be willing to put things out there
[17:32] that are not perfect, that are not
[17:33] proven. Um, and I think that takes a lot
[17:36] of mental energy and it takes a lot of
[17:39] vulnerability. Um, and I think people
[17:41] don’t speak enough about the kind of
[17:44] mental health side of being a creator.
[17:46] Um, but it is that every single day
[17:49] you’re putting yourself out there to be
[17:50] judged and get feedback. Um, and that’s
[17:53] a hard thing to do that should not be
[17:55] ignored. But I think that’s why I love
[17:57] to see creators and community together
[17:59] talking about the challenges that
[18:01] they’re going through.
[18:06] I’d really like to double down on the
[18:08] identity component because I think now
[18:10] in the age of AI law flooding all social
[18:13] media and pretty much everywhere that’s
[18:16] really the thing that’s going to stick
[18:17] out [music] if we continue to follow
[18:19] algorithms and and so it’s going to be
[18:21] hopefully a race to the bottom race to
[18:23] being formul [music]
[18:25] generic.
[18:26] >> I agree. I think beyond just personality
[18:28] because to me it’s not even just about
[18:30] liking you. Do you have an opinion? Do
[18:32] you have a perspective? Like that is not
[18:35] the generic thing that I’m going to get
[18:36] from AI, right? Like do you have reasons
[18:39] for why you think this way? The people
[18:41] with the opinion are the people that
[18:43] always edge out for me cuz I’m like
[18:45] okay. So when something comes up you’re
[18:47] going to be you’re going to be decisive.
[18:48] You’re going to be like we should do
[18:49] this. [music] And I think AI is like
[18:51] very general. It may say you should do
[18:53] this and then you challenge it one
[18:54] moment. It’s like well actually and IT’S
[18:56] JUST LIKE WHOA what’s going on here.
[18:57] >> Totally right. I want
[18:59] >> Exactly. We don’t want [laughter]
[19:01] yesmen. We want we want people with
[19:03] perspectives, [music]
[19:04] lived experience, taste um to continue
[19:07] to create the experiences um [music]
[19:09] that create outcomes.
[19:10] >> But in a world of AI where everyone can
[19:13] learn the same and have the same
[19:14] answers, [music]
[19:15] >> personality, you know, the human aspects
[19:18] are what going to set us apart and
[19:20] that’s a good thing. You know when you
[19:22] get like five resumes, the same hard
[19:24] skills, the same degree, I’m I need to
[19:26] talk to these people
[19:27] >> and now generated by the same tool, you
[19:29] know, the same format, the same one, the
[19:31] same keywords. Don’t try to be the same.
[19:34] Like it’s not going to be sustainable to
[19:35] wear like a mask, this double
[19:37] personality. People really want to
[19:39] [music] connect with you, your mistakes,
[19:41] your vulnerability. Actually, if you be
[19:42] if you if you try to be perfect, people
[19:44] are not going to connect with you
[19:45] because that’s so far away. That’s so
[19:47] distant. I’m never going to be like her.
[19:48] I’m never going to be like him. And
[19:50] people actually they want the opposite.
[19:51] When you’re learning something, when
[19:53] you’re trying to grow in your career,
[19:54] when you’re trying to launch your first
[19:55] digital product, like mistakes [music]
[19:57] are part of the process. So this
[19:59] perfection, I think it’s a big trap just
[20:02] distracting people, making them all look
[20:04] the same. And that’s [music] not
[20:05] reality.
[20:10] A common question that we get from
[20:12] creators or customers is that recently
[20:15] in the past few years paid media has
[20:17] gone through a crazy uptake of [music]
[20:19] of cost. Now organics being flooded by
[20:22] AI, right? So how do creators grow these
[20:25] days a little bit? What are you seeing
[20:27] out there that you think I think this
[20:28] [music] is a good strategy? Something I
[20:30] would recommend.
[20:31] >> Yeah, there are three approaches that I
[20:33] would take here. The first one is okay,
[20:36] you’ve already built [music] a really
[20:38] large audience and a certain percentage
[20:41] of those people have gone deeper with
[20:43] [music] you. Maybe they’ve downloaded a
[20:45] lead magnet or they’ve bought a digital
[20:47] product or maybe they bought a course
[20:48] from you. How do you go back to that
[20:50] same community and go even [music]
[20:52] deeper? Or for the people who bought the
[20:53] course, do they want coaching? Um what’s
[20:56] the next step that you can go? So the
[20:57] first thing I would evaluate is like how
[20:59] do you get more of what you already have
[21:01] versus [music] trying to chase new
[21:03] eyeballs consistently. The second path
[21:05] is how do you get more out of the
[21:08] intellectual property the knowledge that
[21:10] you’ve created. Who else can um get
[21:13] value out of this? So instead of trying
[21:15] to sell to to the consumer companies are
[21:18] consistently looking for high quality
[21:21] premium education content to deliver to
[21:24] their teams. So that same course that
[21:25] you have for designers who are maybe
[21:28] starting their own business, you can
[21:30] take that to a company and sell it to
[21:31] their design team to help them level up.
[21:33] So I think looking the corporation route
[21:36] is another way to get more out of what
[21:37] you already have.
[21:38] >> That’s something that Teachable can
[21:39] actually support. We have a relationship
[21:42] with many companies and [music] I think
[21:44] we we can also help opening up some of
[21:46] these doors that at first creators might
[21:47] not think that [music] it’s for them
[21:49] because as we said corporate training
[21:52] used to be very stale employees are
[21:55] people
[21:57] >> they’re students they’re consumers they
[21:58] want to see what’s out there now people
[22:01] are shooting now
[22:02] >> in real time one of the most powerful
[22:05] things about Teachable is while we are a
[22:07] US-based company we serve a global
[22:10] audience of both creators and students.
[22:12] [music] Um, and I think if you were to
[22:15] look at your um, demographic metrics on
[22:17] your platform, you probably have some
[22:20] level of a global reach. Is there more
[22:21] that you can get um, out of that global
[22:24] perspective as well? I think going back
[22:26] to the vibe coding question, why a
[22:28] Teachable? We have the infrastructure to
[22:30] help you scale that I think we’ll
[22:33] continue to to live on.
[22:38] We got some questions from our
[22:40] customers. So, we’re going to watch a
[22:42] video and then answer their question.
[22:45] So, my question is, what is one
[22:47] underrated skill that you think everyone
[22:49] should learn on Teachable that could
[22:51] potentially change your career or your
[22:53] life? [clears throat]
[22:55] >> It’s so hard to come up with a single
[22:57] answer for that, but Teachable being a
[22:59] learning platform, I would say, is
[23:01] learning [music] how to learn uh and not
[23:03] really being ashamed. And I think what
[23:06] we really want to empower people to do
[23:08] is really pursue their own track, their
[23:10] [music] own learning ways, the way they
[23:13] like to engage with content, the
[23:15] schedule that works for them versus
[23:16] insisting on a formulaic [music]
[23:18] approach. All ways of learning are
[23:19] valid. Um, and don’t be afraid of
[23:21] throwing yourself out there. So
[23:24] answering the question, what’s one
[23:25] underrated skill that I think everybody
[23:27] should learn on Teachable? I actually
[23:29] think it’s personal branding. I think
[23:31] today having your own personal brand
[23:34] outside of your corporate job is so
[23:37] critical. I think you have full
[23:39] ownership of your career path. The same
[23:41] way we talk about nonlinear learning,
[23:44] it’s nonlinear career pathing. What are
[23:46] you interested in? Where do you want to
[23:47] go? What do you want to be known for? I
[23:50] think that creates value for you. It
[23:52] allows you to negotiate. It gives you
[23:54] opportunities. Um, and I think
[23:56] ultimately it makes you better at your
[23:58] job. If you’re consistently thinking
[23:59] about, okay, how do I take this thing
[24:01] that I did at work and translate it into
[24:04] something tangible that somebody else
[24:05] can take away? That’s going to sharpen
[24:07] me for the the next project that I need
[24:09] to do. So, I think personal [music]
[24:10] branding is huge.
[24:11] >> Very similar. I would say storytelling,
[24:13] but like I think everyone should learn a
[24:15] little bit about storytelling. [music]
[24:17] >> People love stories. You’re going to
[24:19] learn how to sell yourself better, sell
[24:21] your product better. People love
[24:22] stories. So learn a little bit about
[24:25] storytelling, how to connect the dots,
[24:27] how to put even technical content in a
[24:29] more engaging natural way. Love
[24:32] storytelling. [laughter]
[24:34] Okay. Thank you.
[24:37] [applause] Yes.
[24:38] All right.
