That Time Of Year! (okay fun and annoying at the same time)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Hey all! It’s that time of year again. Bombarded by nonsense commercials during T.V. Shows and Pro Sports about crap we don’t care about trying to sell staples and a staple gun to keep our scarf’s around our neck.

Okay. Blah blah blah I’m done with that before I go down a rant. What I want to say is the next few weeks are an amazing time to look at your next years plans for what to learn/study/re-up your knowledge on/etc.

A lot of companies will be (or maybe already are) offering holiday discounts. This could be a great time to set some goals/strategies, organize some plans and materials, and get squared away for next year. To rephrase from a friend since I can’t find the exact quote or who said it… as it seems to pertain to most of us in technology “I’m always a geek and need to play and learn something new”

Why am I so vague? Well…… Look out for these discounts as it could be:

  1. A vendor/business/individual/company that has their own paid training platform
  2. A vendor/business/individual/companies publishing company
  3. A video training platform
  4. Monetized Vloggers/Bloggers promoting content at a discount
  5. Personal training websites that have paid subscriptions to keep their content going
  6. Paid audio content you listen to on your commute to work

This list could go on. Everyone learns in their own way but the point of the above is simply to remind everyone to set some 2025 goals and keep an eye out for all these “Black Friday” and “Cyber Monday” discounts in the next week or two.

It’s a great time to save a dime or two on topics you have spinning around in your head and there might be a change they have some discounts for these Holiday — Money spending holidays. Sure! Set it as a goal for next year maybe but if they do offer discounts

*This by no means has any conclusion that I know of any individual company/individual is going to/or/is/doing discounts.

Just a heads up and reminder during the holiday season to keep your eye open in case they do discount and have something you want to learn that has been spinning around your head for a while. If they do, you might get a good deal on that topic/platform to buy your self a gift. While it’s a whirlwind holiday season for a lot of us with travel’s, family gatherings, friend get together’s, you can still watch and snag a deal if it pop’s up and put it for 2025 (or if this pops up years later whatever years) plan.

If I could I would but it’s just not possible to list everything I’ve received and it’d be ever growing. Too many platforms/e-mails/vendors/individual paid content creators/etc – to keep track of everyone discounting and keep it honest and accurate. So just keep any eye out but take this as a friendly reminder it’s a great time watch for a deal to pick up a course or book or whatever.
