Want to learn new skills and grow your business without forking over thousands of dollars for an overpriced course from your favorite "guru"?

Well, I'm going to let you in on a little secret...

You can find a treasure trove of free online courses offered by your favorite SaaS companies and they are every bit as good as the courses that other people are paying thousands of dollars for.

Why You Should Learn From SaaS Companies


Most great SaaS companies are trailblazers in their industries, which means they've got the skills, knowledge, and experience that you need. 


They are also incentivized to help you succeed. If they're able to teach you practical skills that you can apply directly to your business, you are more likely to become a customer of theirs.


Put simply, these companies want to create great content because they know that helping you grow your business will lead to more business for them. 

A Few of My Favorite Free Courses



  1. Automate your business with Zapier: Zapier offers two free courses that will teach you how to automate your business using their incredible business automation platform. Take these courses and you'll discover creative new ways to save time and scale your business through the power of software automation.

  2. Dominate Local SEO Rankings with BrightLocal. Looking to conquer the local SEO scene? Look no further! BrightLocal, a top-notch local SEO SaaS tool, has a collection of free courses that teach you how to boost your website's ranking on Google. Learn these ninja techniques and watch as your online presence skyrockets and your phone starts ringing like never before.

  3. Master Website Design with Duda: Duda is a renowned web design platform and they offer a variety of free courses on everything from designing a great-looking website to building a thriving web design agency.

  4. Build a Home Service Business with BookingKoala: BookingKoala is a popular tool that home service businesses use to operate their day-to-day business activities. This one isn't free but for just $80 you can get access to over 10 courses that will teach you how to build a successful home service business from the ground up.

Uncover Other Free Courses


The courses that I've mentioned above are some of my favorites but you might be looking to learn a completely different type of skill.


If so, here's my recommendation. Find the top SaaS companies related to what you're trying to learn. If you want to learn web design, visit Squarespace and Duda's websites. If you want to grow your coaching business, find the best SaaS tools for coaches. If you want to master sales, find companies that offer Sales or CRM tools such as Salesforce.


Then simply scroll down to their website footer and look for links to any educational resources like free courses, online webinars, ebooks, or templates. You might have to check out a few SaaS websites to find what you're looking for, but chances are, you'll eventually dig up a gold mine of information to help you master new skills and grow your business.
