Marketing is the name of the game when it comes to online product sales, and that includes courses. Sometimes people will purchase right away, while other times they may need more time. If you are able to provide useful content to these prospects during this time then you increase your chances to secure the sale.

by Kevin Siegel, CTT, COTP. There are times where you don’t want your learner to leave a slide until certain criteria have been met.   For instance, there's an interactive game on a slide (a credit score game you'll learn to create in my Storyline Essentials book). The learner earns 10 points by clicking on slide objects that help improve a person's credit score; they lose 10 points if they click something that hurts a credit score.
