Tips for selling trades & technical skills
- Open with a safety module on PPE, tool handling and when to call a licensed professional, and repeat key safety steps inside each practical lesson.
- State clearly which code, standard or region your course references, and remind learners to check their own local rules.
- Do not encourage learners to perform regulated work, such as electrical, gas or plumbing jobs, that requires a license or permit where they live.
- Film close-ups of hand positions, measurements and connections, and add diagrams for anything hard to see on camera.
- Organize lessons as a progression from tools and terms to small projects, rather than a set of unrelated tips.

Questions about selling trades & technical skills
Can I issue certificates or licenses with my trade course?
No. MultiVendor does not issue certificates, accreditation or licenses. Describe what your course covers and tell learners that licensing and certification are handled by their local authorities and approved programs.
How should I handle local codes in my course?
Name the code or region your lessons follow, avoid claiming that any method is code compliant everywhere, and tell learners to confirm requirements with their local building or licensing office.
Can I sell tools, materials or plans alongside my course?
Yes. You can list physical products with options and your own shipping zones, rates and local pickup, and sell digital files such as plans or checklists with a free preview and license terms.
Can I run in-person workshops too?
Yes. You can host events with a date, time zone and venue, set capacity with an automatic waitlist, and send reminder emails to registered attendees.
