And that&#x2019;s why it was feasible &#x2013; because we already had a natural affinity towards it. It was simply taking in-house knowledge and putting it into a system\/process that was consumable for an interested marketer.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Did_you_have_any_moments_of_doubt_before_you_launched_your_training_company\"><\/span>Did you have any moments of doubt before you launched your training company?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Of course!
