10 reasons to sign up to Skillshare

Here are my 10 reasons why I think you should give Skillshare a go.

1. Skillshare is aimed at creatives

It’s for anyone who enjoys being creative, such as designers, artists, entrepreneurs, marketers, freelancers, small business owners, and anyone who wants to take the next step in their creative journey.

2. Wide range of topics

It has 30,000+ video classes that cover topics like illustration, drawing, watercolour, graphic design, animation, photography, film, copywriting, marketing, motion design and more.

3. You actually learn a skill

Each class is designed around a project that students can share, so it’s not just theory-based, you actually learn a skill that you can apply in real life.

4. It’s an investment in yourself

With unlimited access to thousands of classes, you can upskill in many areas and add real value to your life. New skills can help get those creative side hustles off the ground. You know the ones you can’t stop thinking about…

5. You join a global community

You can connect with other members to find inspiration, ask questions, share your work, give and receive feedback or simply discuss your interests.

6. It’s fun

Remember how much you enjoyed art class in school, and how you miss just making stuff for the fun of it? Skillshare brings back good old-fashioned art and craft days to simply be enjoyed.

7. You can teach and learn

If you have a skill of your own, you can become a Skillshare teacher, as well as a student. The more people take your class, the more money you make. I’m currently working on a series of copywriting lessons.

8. It can boost your personal brand

If you do want to go to the next level and become a Skillshare teacher you have the opportunity to reach a global audience. If you focus your classes on a particular subject, you can be seen as an expert in your field, which can open up other professional opportunities.

9. You get a free trial

If you sign up for a Premium membership, you receive a 1 month free trial, so you can try it out before financially committing.

10. Learning is cool

Let’s face it, you’re wasting too much time on the sofa watching Netflix – and there isn’t even anything good on. You may as well apply yourself and do something more positive with your time and learn some new skills.

Join me on Skillshare – you’ll love it.
