With the platform being free, then there's less of a need to get a client to pay -- the only remaining cost is your time. Maybe participants will donate, maybe you can charge a fee, or maybe it's worth it to you to bring OS to an organization that needs it but cannot afford to pay. This is an opportunity to do that. If you run this first one well, then your participants might become your next clients.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b>Overcoming the Learning Curve</b><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Fortunately, you do not need to learn the tech on your own.
