Here's The #1 Question In A Lawsuit That Proves Failed Leadership And Personal Liability

Question with Gavel.png

You knew or should have known that your employees often do work and communicate with co-workers on their personal devices and private accounts; you can't monitor these messages. So, why did you refuse to protect them with outside expert social media liability training that only cost $9 per person?

This Is Specialized Training That Can't Be Done By Your In-House Attorney

  • Our in-house attorney has the same social media law expertise as 30 year nationally respected digit al media attorney Fiedelholtz.


  • We have a social media policy and don't need to enforce the policy with expert social media law training for all employees.

I wanted to commend you on your Social Media Course; members of my department, myself included, recently completed the course and we found it to be time well spent. Instruction was straight forward, to the point, easy to follow and appropriately detailed, in short, the course was well worth the time and money spent. In addition, your customer service was beyond reproach, I emailed you several times and each time you responded immediately and rectified email problems that were created on our end, but effected our course completions. Thank you for a great course and a great experience, I look forward to seeing more courses.”
