Research + Exploration

 

😐  Pluralsight authors aren’t aware of content needs resulting in stagnation between opportunities and slow time to commission.

😡  The Pluralsight author pool is vastly underutilized resulting in author frustration, lack of trust, and turn over to competitors.
😐  Top earning authors are given a majority of opportunities causing a lack of freshness and diversity in our content library.
