Perhaps the biggest Internet superpower is digital writing. Do it well and you can create a huge distribution network for your ideas or your products and services.

If you have the end goal of creating that large distribution network to deploy your ideas or sell your products and services into, this could be an essential course for you. This is a nice complementary course to Ship 30 for 30, but you can start with either one. If you are in the US, use coupon code PDG8920 for 20% off.
