 We're just doing some hellos. I want to talk a little bit about TechSoup. I'm going to spend, you know, I guess the focus of our time today to talk about cloud text texting and how I'm using that with my organization. And then have, you know, kind of some quick hits with micro learning minutes and some things that if anyone wants to share about their favorite tools or technology, the, so I'm going to do a little interview format here. Liz, you game to join me on stage and we'll talk a little bit about TechSoup. Is that good with you? Yeah, so... Yeah, so I'm going to put... So, Liz, I know you've heard me talk about TechSoup and have you ever worked in an organization where other people talk to, or am I the only one you know who talks about TechSoup? You're the only one I know, but I feel like I've heard, I've recognized it mentioned, maybe in some like nonprofit Facebook groups since then, but you're the only one that I've ever known that really explained what it was, so. Yeah, okay. So is, I think, I know Tyree from working with him that you're familiar with it, because Anna, how about you? Have you come across TechSoup before is that new to you? I know that some people are not able maybe to come off mute. So we'll just keep the conversation going with Liz. So what I have up on the screen is the mission statement for TechSoup. Their mission is to build a bridge that enables civil society organizations, nonprofits, social change agents around the world to gain effective access to resources they need to design and implement technology solutions for a more equitable planet. Sounds like someone graduated high school, college, and graduate school to come up with a mission statement like that. That is packed with some big words and big ideas. The way I think about TechSoup is that it's an incredible organization that has the mission of helping other nonprofit organizations to accomplish their mission more powerfully through the making technology more accessible, available, and understandable. So Liz, if you saw someone on the street, I guess I'm doing a reverse interview now, and they asked you what TechSoup is. What would be your short answer? That they make technology accessible to nonprofits by offering discounts to useful technological resources, like the Adobe suite, I know you've used that, and like little green light, different things. That's what I've really experienced of them through you, but you told me that there are some other things that they do that I wasn't familiar with before. We had that conversation about them earlier. Yeah, yeah, so let me just mention a little bit about that, and we'll share these links. Liz is gonna put some of them in the chat, and I'm going to launch some of them here. I already showed you the mission and values, so Liz, if you want, you could put that one in. We can also share this after the meeting. I'm gonna launch another link here of my browser cooperates. Looks like I'm getting some good cooperation, and Liz did post that up. Yeah, Liz, let's try copying and pasting. It looks like if we, oh, I don't know, it's like the way I sent it to you. I don't think it can be available, I should be able to. Yeah, so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take this one, and I'm just gonna see if it'll paste in cleanly. Yeah, and the, yeah, the mission and values one. I've had this happen to me before where if I send things, yeah, so there's that one. Okay, just a couple of other ones, a couple of other things to show. Maybe I'll just navigate from their website just to hit a couple of points. I'm gonna go to the TechSoup orc site. The takeaway that I would like people to have here, I'm gonna click on resources. So just like maybe one more minute on this, they have articles and how-tos and this is at no cost. I think you have access to this even if you are not registered. You do have to be a, at least in the United States, as you can see, TechSoup Global works with almost every country in the world. You select your country and your navigation panel might be a little bit different, but there'll be articles and how-tos, which are fully available. I think many of the webinars, if you find something interesting, I think you can just watch it in there. If you want to take advantage of their services for technology management, they are a fee for those, but they're very much discounted than what you might pay otherwise, and a product catalog. Now, it may not necessarily have absolutely everything and anything from any company. I know that some people for graphics, we talked about this our last meeting, they'll use Canva, we see Canva isn't listed here. If you go to Canva, there is a non-profit pricing option on there. So you can certainly go directly to the manufacturers. If you find it convenient here to obtain the primarily software or service or subscription through TechSoup, you're paying mostly an administrative cost to help them manage their program, which is in many instances, I've found about a 90% savings from what you would pay if you were paying a corporate retail price. So you can see the listings here. Does that make sense? Anybody have a question on that either in the chat or if you want to come off mute? And if not, no worries. Okay, so what I want to do is to keep things going is I want to bring us over to our main topic for today, which is cloud texting. And let me bring up the, let's see, did I, yep, over here. So Liz, this is a different video. I'm going to put this in the chat here. And what I'm going to share with you is some information about cloud texting from the platform that I've been using. And I would suggest that there are other, let's see if I could find my, this is, I'm just looking for my, to demo my actual, yeah, here it is. Here's my, I'm going to put over on the screen here. Yeah, this is the dashboard for the cloud texting platform. Now, before I get into it too much, if again, for those who have the ability to come off mute or in the chat, is cloud texting something? Can you give me a sense? Are you familiar with it? Have you used it? Should I put up a poll on this? Or can someone, we're also, I'm going to, Liz, maybe you and I are going to continue our interview here. So let me ask you, Liz, since I believe it's okay for you to come off mute. In the organizations where you've worked, have you used cloud texting? So we've used a texting, used a texting service before where we sent like reminder updates, but I'm not really sure if that was particularly cloud texting because I don't know the difference between just like a texting service and like a cloud texting service or if there even is one. Okay, I'm not using the, or I don't intend to use the phrase cloud texting in an overly technical sense, but the reason I'm saying cloud texting, as you can see, I am in a browser here and I'm logged in to my account and I'm able to launch text messages to different sets of contact lists. Rather than sending the text message from my phone, which of course I could also do that, but I'm having it sent through a service. So what I'd like to do is I'm going to show you, show everyone how I've been using this service and why I find it valuable. But what I'd like to do here is to show a few minutes of a video from simple texting. I am not affiliated with simple texting other than being a customer of theirs and there are other texting platform providers. We're going to send you out some links on that. Liz, if you would maybe put in the link for remind.com, R-E-M-I-N-D.com that's a text reminder service used by schools and community organizations. One of the other nonprofits that I'm familiar with in my area, they use a service called easytexting.com with the letter E, the letter Z texting.com. All right, so I'm going to set this, I think we're set. So Liz, you tell me if the audio is coming through once I start playing this. Hi there, and welcome to simple texting. Is the audio coming through? Yep, it's good. Okay, great. I'm going to boost the, into full screen. We're going to watch about two minutes of that, yeah, maybe two and a half minutes. Then I'm going to pause it, check in with you to see if we're having any questions. And then I'll show you a demonstration if you wish we can participate in through my organization's account. All right, so here we go, about two and a half minutes or so. In this video, we're going to show you how to add your first contacts and send your first message. Let's imagine we're a coffee shop. Maybe it's called Impresso Espresso. Wait, no, the daily grind. Yeah, that's cooler. Okay, so our coffee shop already sends email promotions to our customers, but our open rates are not that great. We know texts have open rates as high as 98% so we decide to try it. And that's where simple texting comes in. You can access it from your computer or our iOS or Android app. At the top right, you'll find the number you'll use to send and receive messages. And of course, if you want to send messages, you need your customer's phone numbers. So let's collect some. We'll set up the text to join keyword. Click keywords on the left-hand side, then create first keyword. A keyword is a word that people can text into your number to sign up for messages. Let's make our something memorable, like our business name, the daily grind. When someone texts the daily grind to our number, we want to enter them into a list called customers. You can create unlimited lists with simple texting. You could have one for employees and another for customers. Okay, let's write a message that people will get as soon as they text in the keyword to our number. Hi there, thanks for signing up for our messages. You'll be the first to hear about exclusive deals on all things coffee. Click save and done. The keyword is live instantly. Why not test it now? Seriously, if you're watching this, go ahead and text the daily grind to our number, 833-612-0756 to see how it works. Okay, I'm stopping it there for just a brief comment. I did this a little while ago and as the speaker is saying, if you'd like to interact with this, send that text message, the daily grind, to that number, 833-6120-756, and see what happens. All right, I'm gonna continue with the video. You can advertise keywords on signs, receipts, menus, t-shirts, emails, you name it. In no time, our coffee shop will have a big list of subscribers. Let's message our coffee shop's customers about a sale we have on t-shirts. Go to campaigns and click new campaign. Give the campaign a name. This is just for your reference. Subscribers won't see this. Now write out your message. Hello, overly-capinated family. We're offering a free bag of beans when you buy a daily grind t-shirt. Here's the link. Be sure to click our link shortener. Select who you want to send the message to. In this case, customers. Then hit next. You can schedule your message for a specific date and time or just send it now. Done, your first message is out in the world. If you use our link shortener, you can even see how many people click your link down here. Now you may be wondering, what if somebody texts back? Okay, I'm gonna come back to maybe watch a little bit more of the video from that point. But I'd like to ask, did that make sense? Did that seem like a good explanation for how this texting service works? Okay, great. So I'm gonna switch over to show you, let's see, whoops. A little bit, an example from mine. I've got two monitors here. I'm just pushing this one over and let's see, okay? And what I have done is I've created a keyword called tech soup. Now I wanna go back to my home screen and if you would be willing, I know I already got some participation from Liz at the beginning of our meeting, this is the toll free text number for my organization's subscription to simple texting. It's 844-941-4282. So if we could have maybe one or more people from who are on our session with us, if you would please send the keyword tech soup to that number. Do we have anyone, everyone, anybody from Mama's Cares and participate in this so that we could, okay? I think we got somebody, all right. So I'm gonna go back down to, great, fantastic. Thank you, Tyree. Okay, so what's, Tyree should have received a response message and I'm gonna go up here. It'll look something like this. Your message was successfully submitted and so forth. Okay, so if I go down to subscribers, I see that I now have five subscribers to the tech soup list. Now that's great. So let's see, I'm gonna do, I'm going in two, I'll do two ways, show two ways. I think we got another one. So how I can take advantage of that. I'm gonna go to the campaign and I'm going to call it tech soup news and this is just a practice message. I'm just gonna say thank you for joining, spell it correctly, joining our session today, all right? Who do I want it to go to? Well, I'm gonna have it go to our tech soup registrants for this keyword. I'm gonna send it immediately and send now, all right? So I'm on that list and I just got the message that thank you for joining our session. Did anyone else get it? I think if one person got it, okay, fantastic, you received it. Now, now that's pretty simple. It's like what's the big deal maybe? Can you do anything useful with it? I'm gonna show you something that is really useful to what I want to accomplish in my organization. I'm gonna do one more test. Now, a lot of times many of us, all of us maybe are out without our laptop, maybe we've got our phone. I'm going to send another message from my phone and let's see if that, how that works, okay? So the way I have it set up, and I know you can't see this, but the way I have it set up on my phone, I have it configured with this cloud texting platform. I'm going to send the keyword to my number and it should allow me to send the message to all of you by sending it as a text message from my phone into the cloud texting platform for delivery out to you. So in the message, I'm gonna put this message is coming from my phone, okay? So I sent that as a text message the way I conventionally send text messages from my phone and now I'm asking you, did anyone receive the message that says this is coming from my phone? Okay, fantastic. Does that make sense? Liz, I'm gonna ask you to come off mute. Does that make sense or does that seem crazy? No, it seems perfectly normal and we're demonstrating how like nonprofits can use text messaging to communicate with large audiences in a way that is clearly very, can be in the moment and right on people's phones. So that's one of the best ways to get in touch with people now. Yeah, thanks, yeah. So when I was talking with a colleague of mine who's an executive director at an organization in my area, she was saying that she sets up lists for her trustees, her board members, for families who want to be on it distribution for something. I'm using it to send out notices of upcoming events or activities that my organization is doing. And there is also a mobile app that works with this particular texting platform that is available either from the app store for iPhones or Android, Google Play. So that is pretty convenient. You can do quite a bit with your phone. I'm going to return to the video. We're gonna watch another minute or two. Let's see, let me lower that one, see if I can get back to the video or my video. Actually, what I should just do is go, yeah, I'm gonna bring up, here we go. So Jerome, there was a question from somebody if we could answer that before we move on. So we asked, will you explain the apps section and what apps can be connected? Okay, yes, that's exactly what the next portion of the video is going to go over. So that's really... Hi there, and welcome to Sync Protect. So in this video, we're gonna show you how to add to the content and send your first message. We already watched that part. I'm gonna jump up to, it was about two and a half. And you're going to see about how the apps work in this next section. And then if there's any more questions after the video and Jerome's explanation, please put them in the chat, but we'll see what the video, if the video answers the questions you have for now. Okay, thank you, yep, and I'll check in as well. Okay, so here we go, we're gonna pick up where the video is going to explain how apps work. Just send it now. Done, your first message is out in the world. If you use our link shortener, you can even see how many people click your link down here. Now you may be wondering, what if somebody texts back? Great question, you can manage replies from the inbox. That's right, simple texting lets you reach groups and have one-on-one conversations. You can do everything from alerts to customer service. Hey, take a look at that, someone just messaged us. Awesome, can I order coffee in bulk? Let's reply back, you sure can. Feel free to email wholesale at thedailygrind.com. You know what, this is awesome. Our copy shop sold a whole bunch of new products thanks to our campaign and even found a lead for a wholesale client. Wouldn't it be great if we could text employees too? I mean, I already have their phone numbers and permission to text them. Easy, just go to subscribers, add a list called employees, then click import and select your file. Be sure it has a header row, so you can map the fields. You have to agree to our terms and conditions first. Map the fields, and you're done. Now, the same way we sent our first campaign, we can send a mass text to all of our employees about important info or requests, like when we need a shift covered, for example. Hmm, how else can simple texting help our coffee shop? I wish I could collect phone numbers from my site visitors too. We can do that by adding a web form to our site. Just go to app. Okay, I'm just pausing it there. This, as you heard, this is where the specific explanation of apps is being presented in the video, okay? Back to the video. Web sign up forms, and click create sign up form and give your form a name. Again, this is just for your reference. We want to add customers who fill out this form to our customers list. And you know, it would be cool to personalize our text. So let's collect first names. We'll make it a required field. Click save, and now you can preview your form to see what it'll look like on your site. And to add it to your site, just click the get code button and copy and paste the code onto your site. There you have it. A few minutes is all it takes to start texting your customer. Thanks to simple texting, your business is growing, and that's just the beginning. In our next video, we'll cover things like picture messages, drip campaigns, personalization, and more. Hope to see you there. Okay, let's see. Now, granted, that was a very brief coverage of it. Liz, I think we, there are, I'm gonna go back to our links. I believe that there is a, yeah, a section of videos on this, if you happen to like this particular. I did take over one video link already. So, yeah. And maybe you sent this one as well. So I'm just repeating it. There's a section on videos. Let me bring that up. And you can see, if you were interested in a, you know, a more detailed explanation of how to use the apps, you can probably find it in there. I used the apps a little bit. Let's say, I don't know if I could, I used the data collection app a little bit. And as you can see, if I go over to my keyword section, you see that there are certain apps, like this one where when you, if you want to try it right now, the keyword is YTB100. So if anyone wants to try that, Liz, I don't know if you have not done that yet. If you send the keyword YTB100 to the number 8449414282, you might get a couple of follow-ups that would say, please enter your zip code or your location and whatnot. You can add a number of other fields for information to be collected, okay? So if anyone wants to try that, you can try that. Okay, is that so far so good? Yes. Okay, great, thank you. All right, so what I want to do in the next few minutes, I want to show you what, how I'm, in addition to all of these things, the other way that I'm using this cloud texting platform, as some of you know, the type of organization that I'm involved with is called Youth Time Banking. Time Banking is a system of service exchange where time is used as the currency. And the focus that I am giving to time banking is to get youth involved and connected with their community by participating in projects in the community, where they would report their time and activity back to me or back to the organization. So let's see, I'm going to bring up, let me go back. So I'm going to show you how that's being accomplished. Not sure if I had that. Yep, I think if I click on this link here, Liz, this is the ytbnj.org forward slash time. All right, so I'm going to boost boost out this. This is a report that shows the number of participants in youth time banking, the number of hours they've been participating, the number of activities overall that have been completed and the different theme areas or categories that those activities fall within. So it's kind of like a way of grouping the activities or bundling them up. And this report is created from the text messages that youth participants send for their participation. Does that make sense? So let me give you an example of how that happens. Let's say I'm a youth in the community and I'm participating in a project and I want to report my hours. Okay, so I'm going to bring up another website for my organization and Liz, I'll put this, this is our check-in. Yeah, okay, so I'm going to put this in the chat. And so the youth, when we have an orientation, we say for each of your activities, send a text message that includes a number and a short description. So let's say for the meeting right now, I'm going to claim that this is part of my community involvement and activity and it's, I'm going to say it's 75 minutes for the meeting. So the number would be 75 and the activity description would be, you know, say virtual workshop or something like that. And I'm going to send it to the number 844-941-4285 so please don't do that yourself just now. I want to explain something. I'm going to do that right now. And so I'm going to put in 75 and I'm going to call it TechSoup Workshop. Okay, so the reason that I like this is because with people in general and youth in particular, I get a lot more cooperation and a higher response rate by asking youth who might be community gardening to send a text message as opposed to when you get home tonight, log into your computer and complete this form reporting your time. Now that's great if they do that. So as you can see, my message came in right here that I'm working on that. Now another thing that happens is that one of the features in this cloud texting platform is that it will, I'm just got a multi-task over here to see if I could find my page where the messages get forwarded. Okay, so you can see I just sent that in. All right, and so you're saying, wow, that sounds crazy. You sent a text message so that it gets converted or forwarded into an email message. Why on earth would you do that? Okay, well, the reason I want to do that is because the technology is doing all of the heavy lifting for me, and this is all happening behind the scenes. All right, so what's gonna happen? Right at the time that I was sending it in, my report shows that there were 897 hours of community service. I just reported another hour, so the report will refresh, and if the wind is blown in the right direction, we should see an increase in the number of hours by one. Just let this complete, and this happens behind the scenes. I'm manually running the refresh now. Oh my goodness, there must have been some backlog of things, but I put in, as you can see, the number of hours went up. I should have only gone up by one, so I'm not sure why it jumped. I tested this a few times before we started the meeting, and it was just incrementing by one, but if you'll just take that at my word, that's how the report works, and it will refresh on an hourly basis to bring in the new information, and each participant who is enrolled with our organization has a profile behind the scenes that associates their text number with their name and location and age and so forth. Okay, so does that make sense? Did that come through okay, Liz? Aside from the, oops, let me bring that back up. Yes, I did have for Ron to take a quick phone call, but what I saw looked great. Yeah, so here's just another view of that on the website, or I'm sorry, on the service that generates the report and the schedule of the refresh is set for roughly one hour on here. So that's the reason for, yeah, thanks, Tyree, thanks for stopping in with us. So that's how I've been using simple texting, and that was my motivation for wanting to use a service like that. Let me just see if I get back to, where's my simple texting here. See if I can get back, and then I'll move on to the next section. It's a little tricky here. Here is this, yeah, so here's the campaigns, the keywords, just for a review, the subscribers based on the list. So I have one set up for the board members for people who want to be notified about activities. This is our larger one here where we have 25 people. Where I just give them background information of new things going on. These are people who are, have been involved for a long time with the organization and this is the list that we used in our demo today for TechSoup. Okay, so I'm going to kind of move on to the next part of our meeting and just check in if any other questions than about this area here on cloud texting. Could I ask a question for the participants to answer if they feel like, maybe like put in the chat if you have any idea of how cloud texting could be useful for your organization. Jerome already talked about how a YTB is kind of using texting. So maybe share what you think your organization could do with cloud texting because there's just so many things that you can do to keep people informed with cloud texting and just interested in knowing what type of organizations are out there in different ways that it might be useful to them. Yeah, thank you, Liz. I'm going to, you know, follow up on your point and if Christoph, you're still connected with us. I know sometimes people have to step away or take a call. Have you tried any of these cloud texting services for your work? I think it would be, you know, really, like right now I feel like I can't live without it. It's one of my most pleasant discoveries this year. What are your thoughts, Christa? Yep, time to comment. Absolutely, absolutely. In my previous organization, we had worked with breast cancer survivors and we had close to 33 programs a month that I would oversee. And all these programs were so unique and different that, you know, a program, whether it is about reflexology to a program about heart health during cancer treatment to even fund programs about storybooking to craft classes. And so any time a breast cancer survivor walked in, our organization, she would list all the, or she or he would list all the things that they are interested in. So then they would receive notifications that their upcoming program is coming up where they be interested. And it's just a nice little reminder that, you know, they're out there. We have programs, you know, some, I'll be honest with you, some got a little annoyed by that they, but honestly they put down, you know, they were interested in, you know, over a hundred programs. And so they did receive a lot more texts than some people, but that was something that we just had to fine tune a little bit later. How frequently do you want these text messages? So yeah, I'm very familiar with it. Yeah. Do you mind telling us which platform you worked with? Lord have mercy. Jerome, I have no idea. It was almost five years ago. Okay. Okay. Yeah. There's a, maybe if we could pull up a quick example, there's something, Elizabeth, if you're able to help me out, there's the crisis text line. I think they are, they've made, like extraordinary advantage of, yeah, of like, I'm going to click on that I believe they, they may even be a, a customer of, possibly of simple texting and that's, so wow, this is, you can see they're quite advanced users of cloud texting. I'm calling it cloud texting. I don't know if that's the, you know, the, the standard term or web texting or a texting service. Maybe that's a more everyday way of talking about it. But it really is a quick and immediate way to, you know, effectively get some, you know, really precision targeted information out to people and to respond to their requests. I know one of the people who works with me in youth time banking, she has a few kids in, in middle school and high school. And the schools use a texting service and Valerie use the mother says that she finds it really valuable. I know that one of the community organizations in my area sends out activity updates, you know, weather closings or changes in time. And I know with my own family, people are a lot quicker to check their text messages than they are something else. Okay. I'm going to wrap up in about two minutes here. I appreciate those of you who are able to hang with us this long. Last couple of things I wanted to mention are to share some links that I think are that I found very interesting. And Liz, I think you put out in the chat the nonprofit pricing for simple texts so that's good. I don't know if I included, I want to put the canva one up there. I'm just going to copy and paste it. And canva is a very useful, powerful, popular graphics design tool for anything and everything. I think they have on their site canva for anything. On this link, now, for example, this is where you may not, you would not find this, I don't think as a subscription offering through TechSoup, but if you go to canva's website, you see they have a link on their website, you see they have a section for nonprofits, and there is somewhere on here, because I completed it, a form that you complete, yeah, apply now, it's free, and you can qualify for their nonprofit pricing. Okay. So I did that, I'm in the process. I believe I'm qualified, I am qualified for it. I'm just getting that. You know, completed. The other one that I discovered recently is called Close Talk. Let's see if I copy that one. And I'm attracted to their business model for nonprofits, because I'd like to have a way to make branded apparel available to supporters of time banking and youth time banking, and they've got a great model that really manages the inventory and price points for nonprofits. There's a nonprofit application for how you can participate if you find this interesting. Krista, have you ever heard of this Close Talk? It's pretty cool. And so let's see. On my desktop, you can see that I have this black and white logo. So some of our volunteers, not volunteers, but members of youth time banking, particularly an individual in Jamaica designed this graphic, put it in, I don't know if this is called grayscale or white. Looks like it might be more on the order of grayscale. But this is an example of what I would submit with my application to Close Talk that they could brand on hats, t-shirts, bags. And you don't have to pay anything other than if you want the t-shirt, they have fixed pricing on what that would be for anyone. So I think it's a, and you can still, again, it doesn't preclude you from doing anything else. If you want to print your own t-shirts, which what we're trying to do with, you know, our smart cutting plotters and heat presses. We'll still do that as well. Okay. Just one or two more and then we'll close up shop. I'm just going to bring up, I think this last one, badger.com. This is something that was recommended to me by some people I've been working with to put together a panel discussion on school-based youth services and youth time banking and youth courts. Badger.com, which is a way for maybe getting youth services involved with earning digital badges for demonstrating capabilities in different areas. And so we're looking for a way to bring that, incorporate that in with our youth time banking model. So thank you, Christ. I see your response. Yeah, close talk is pretty cool. Like I said, there's no downside to it. It doesn't block you out of doing anything else. And so let me wrap up the show here by going back to close talk. Excuse me. And shopping by nonprofits, quite a few of my friends like animals. And so if you click in there, I think, yeah, live like Rue, you can, you know, it gives you a nice description of the organization and it makes any of these apparel items available. And you don't have to do anything. If you want to buy it, if you want to get t-shirt, they have, you know, how would it be possible for an organization like mine to offer this variety? You know, I can get a baseball cap. I can get a t-shirt. And once I have my organization registered, we would have our own page. Isn't that like wow? Could I get a wow from somebody? Wow. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah. And so, and there's just, it looks like hundreds and hundreds of organizations in here. You can shop by category. And I'm not recommending, I'm not trying to drum up business for these other ones. I want to get time banking, youth time banking. They have big brothers, big sisters in here. A lot of really cool stuff and some really cool design ideas. And I think they'll give you a little bit of guidance if you need that. Okay, everybody. So thank you. Thank you so much, Krista. We'll have another session in October. And then we'll plan some things for. Next season. Next year, rather. Every other month, something like that. And in the upcoming meetings, I'll talk about jot form and some cool things with PDFs and SNP and sketch. So any other requests, suggestions, recommendations. For Badger. Is there a price to that? No, let me bring that back up. And while yes and no, like there's, you can get started for free. Okay. So I want to show you, let me log in to my account. I can get started for free. Okay. Let me log in to my account. I already have an account. Back up, back up the car here. Sign in. Okay. How come I'm not, it should wreck. I'm going to just sign in with my Microsoft account. I think that should. Yeah, here we go. Okay. Yep. I've signed in before. I don't know. Maybe I was on a different browser. Okay. And I completed one of these. Let's see. So. I know I have one. I know I have one. I don't know. It's stored somewhere. Let me see if I could pull up the one that I did. And it's called digital fluency. Badger.com. Let's see if that comes up. Okay. It's taken me right back where I was, right? Yeah. Yeah. So I'll, I'll, I'll pull that up. Out of my email. I'm, I'm, I'm obviously I'm, I'm new at this, but I do have a badge. I qualified for it. I completed it. And. And. And I have it. So I could put it on the LinkedIn. I could put it on the Facebook page. I have it. So I could put it on the LinkedIn. I could put it on my Badger profile. And this is something I want to encourage youth to do. Especially to, you know, build up their skill set, build up their strengths. And companies are using this Walmart is using it. I'm not sure if Amazon is using it as a way for people to demonstrate their capabilities. But I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure if it's from, like saying, you know, I have this other certificate or I took this course in college. It gives a more flexible way for people to demonstrate that they know how to do things. And especially for youth, I think it would be. You know, really great. Yeah. I'll send that to you. And I'll show you show off my badge. This is a little bit of a different mark. It's trust too. You could see that a particular person's been in the system for a little bit too. Way. I didn't hear the first part of what you said. Trust. Oh, oh trust. Yes. Yes. Good point. Yes. You got it. That's the name of the game. Absolutely. Absolutely. Okay.
