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. If enough folks on this list are interested, we'll form groups of 3-4 facilitators who can meet once per week for an hour to share their progress and to provide constructive suggestions to each other. I will be available for free trainings and open office hours each week <a href="https://learn.qiqochat.com/events">here</a>.<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b>Who is this for?</b><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>This offer applies to anyone who has not yet hosted an online open space event on Qiqo.
