Leon You are Amazing. I have a marketing under graduate degree here in the US over ten years ago and I was amazed to see how things are changed but you made it very relevant by closing the gap. I will look forward to be consulted.

By taking this course it has opened my abilities to be more not afraid to speak my mind and be able to stop the client and point them on the right course of action that was what I was doing in the past also by using the internet and Google, I am more confident because all that I was saying is there for anyone to see.

Narration is sometimes difficult to follow Also The writing on the slides is fuzzy and difficult to read (on a mobile device)

El curso está bien pero está muy enfocado a consultoría en Marketing, más que a una consultoría genérica o de otros ámbitos como estrategia, tecnología, etc. Aporta algunos recursos y herramientas interesantes, aunque muchos de ellos ya no existen así que en ese aspecto está bastante desactualizado. Para mi gusto, puede servir como primera toma de contacto pero le falta mucho para ser un curso completo.

C'est bien fait mais ne s'applique pas tant au Canada avec plusieurs outils non disponible. J'ai pas senti une organisation et formation qui me mène à ce que je soit prêt à me lancer dans la consultation. Je vais devoir faire autres cours afin de satisfaire mes besoins.

This is a general take on the consulting business. If you are looking into starting from zero, you will need to supplement with other courses. I noticed people are upset about not seeing his actual work. He could improve by adding a section showing step-by-step examples of what he does with a client. Also, much of the information on the websites he uses is outdated. This course needs to be updated. It is not a bad course, but it could be much better.

Very Clear Presentation. Very Detailed. A lot of insight just in the opening section that made me brainstorm a number of ideas I feel would work wonderfully in my initial pitch.

Let me make things clear for you guys, I hope that the teacher is aware of the horrible job he is doing, stop reading and instead start letting people know how they can in fact use the tools and interpret in given situations. The title of the course does not aline with the content that he is providing as well.

I am still in the first section, but so far the course seems very good. The teacher speaks clearly, the graphics are aesthetically pleasing. There is no noise or music to distract my attention away from the topic. I am sure that by the end of the course I will be thoroughly satisfied.
