Danny’s time tested methodologies were already implemented through his seminars and tapes in thousands of firms, but the training business had hit a wall. How could they reach more firms faster? How could they use technology to bring training to the industry every day? While a one day seminar brings a powerful shot of energy, how could they support it weeks and months later? That was their mission and from it, the interactive website and webcasts were born.
