I hope you're all doing well. I'm in the initial stages of a business idea and would truly value your insights on it. The idea is to create a course platform that is exclusively specialized in E-commerce topics. Everyone can offer and share their own course. I believe that many of us struggle to find high-quality, specialized courses, and at the same time, there are many experts that like to share their knowledge. Have you ever felt that it's challenging to find the right E-commerce courses or wanted to share your expertise in a specialized space? Do you see potential in such an open, community-driven platform? I would truly appreciate on all of your thoughts and opinions on this. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to your feedback! Best regards,

We're building something akin to this but its more focused on content / the overarching user and end user experience. It's tough because you need to niche down and every platform has native e-commerce offerings - a few even have digital and physical product offerings. It's a competitive sector with pretty high switching costs for current creators. Kajabi - teachable - podia - teachery - clickfunnels - gohighlevel not to mention a ton of LMS platforms that do comparable things. Not sure exactly what you mean by e-commerce topics. Most of these platforms are built for creators in a multitude of different sectors and the individuals are the ones tasked with marketing and selling courses + offerings.

And what about cources for employees? Choosing the right Learning Management System (LMS) for a small business is a crucial decision that can greatly impact employee training and development. Consider the integration capabilities with other tools and systems your business uses. As best LMSs for Small Business may include HR software, CRMs, or collaboration tools. Assess the level of support and training offered by the LMS provider. A responsive support team and adequate training resources can make implementation smoother.
