  • How was your learning Experience with IIMSKILLS for Content Writing Training?

 

My learning experience with IIM SKILLS was an eye-opener, enlightening and inspiring, to say the least. IIM SKILLS boasts of a new age digitally focused content writing course, and expertly bridges the gap between content writing training needs and industry relevance.

 

The training consisted of 4 sessions (and 16 hours) of live instructor-led online classroom training. The curriculum was designed to meet industry-specific needs. Assignments had to be completed at the end of each session, with global accreditation and a Master certification from IIM Skills adding great value for each and every student.

 

24*7 email support by the IIM Skills team led by Vaibhav was also exceptional. From day 1 to the present day (even after I have long completed the course), the support team has always promptly resolved all my queries, whether it is for my WordPress website, content, or any other issue. Keep up the good work!

  • Which are your Favorite Content Distribution Channels (Eg: Quora) & Why?

 

My favorite Content Distribution Channels are:

 

  • Quora: Helps me to follow topics and people that interest me only, become an expert and cultivate deep knowledge, improve question pages, crowdsource ideas, and learn and be entertained with the best replies. Our domain authority and credibility in Quora increases over time with a rise in our number of posts and followers. Successful and popular Quora writers are mini-celebrities in themselves.

 

  • My email list: This is an oft-neglected content distribution channel, and helps to generate goodwill and increase click-through-rates. However, there is a fine line between sending a few emails and spamming, and hence it should be used in moderation.

 

  • Forums and Communities: Just like in Quora, once our domain authority and credibility increase with a significant number of posts and followers, we can initiate a thread that summarizes the content we aim to distribute.

 

  • Linkedin Pulse: Pulse is a platform propagated by Linkedin. One can create a short version of the content we are trying to publish on LinkedIn, and then provide a backlink to my original content. We can do likewise for Reddit as well.

 

 

 

  • Which are the Top Content Writing Tools Which you use regularly?

 

  1. Google Analytics
  2. Yoast SEO
  3. Neil Patel
  4. Grammarly
  5. Copyscape
  6. Hemingway

As briefly stated by me earlier, Vaibhav Kakkar has been a revelation as IIM Skills’ founder and trainer. His dynamism, booming voice, deep baritone, and online charm & presence made all the training sessions extremely engaging, interesting and interactive. Vaibhav has good industry knowledge and is a great teacher. He is patient by nature, and his innovative and interactive teaching style ensures that the students are able to grasp study modules with live demos and practical, industry-specific examples. During the training, Vaibhav’s useful practical examples and practical life hacks from his own industry experience added great value. Despite his busy schedule, he also makes it a point to promptly help/answer/resolve all email queries, for all his students, past and present.

The biggest challenge for a new digital writer is to not to stop learning and practicing when the CWMC training course (and its related assignments) end after 4 weeks. As the old saying goes, there is no substitute for hard work. Continuous self-learning and content writing practice is key to successfully imbibing the learnings from the IIM Skills course.

Thus, like any sunshine industry, there will always continue to be a market for content writing careers in the future.
