Success:

Success in this role will be ultimately about empowering technology users and SMB clients to continuously improve their utilization of the technology they have invested in.

Your mission is to educate the SMB world on technology through the development and delivery of awesome training content and remote learning events.

The specific audience and method will vary for these objectives, but overall success comes from creating positive impact and great experiences for clients.
