7 Scientifically Proven Steps to Increase Your Influence

"7 Scientifically Proven Steps to Increase Your Influence" was an online course provided on Udemy website. At the time of writing this post, this course is not in the SkillsFuture credit course directory. However, it was a free course taught by a Behavioural Investigator, Vanessa Van Edwards.


Udemy has many courses which are available free of charge. However, some instructors may charge a fee after the initial promotion period.

In this "7 Scientifically Proven Steps to Increase Your Influence" course, Vanessa Van Edwards taught 7 ways which were scientifically proven to be able to increase our influence on other people.

She also gave some killer conversation starters to get more interesting conversations and interactions with people.

Advanced Social Media Marketing Course

The first online course I took that was provided by Udemy was "Advanced Social Media Marketing".

At the time of writing this post, this "Advanced Social Media Marketing" was one of the courses that was eligible for SkillsFuture credit. SkillsFuture credit is only for Singaporeans aged 25 and above. 

Besides comparing the course fees and contents between the 4 social media courses that were eligible for SkillsFuture credit, another thing that I looked at was whether the trainer spoke with an accent. In such cases, I might have difficulty understanding what he or she said. 

For this course, Alex Genadinik spoke English clearly, so it was easy to hear and understand, for me at least. In addition to that, the speed of his lecture was just right. You can look at the preview of some of his lectures before deciding whether or not to take his course.

He included Quora as one of the social media platforms to use to gain more engagement and exposure. This was something new to me. 

He also explained why people put hashtags in their posts on Instagram, Twitter and some other social media sites. 

If you are interested to know more about social media, or how to use social media to promote your business, you can consider taking "Advanced Social Media Marketing" course. 

This is an online course that is available globally, so anyone with internet access should be able to take this course.
