 Leaner Online Store Launched
We have redesigned our online store to make it easier for people to use. The new store has a streamlined interface and makes it easy to see the available options and prices. In the past visitors to our site have had to look at an unnecessarily long list of options and features, making them think things were a lot more complicated than they really were. This unnecessary searching and scrolling was waste and as a Lean Six Sigma training provider, waste is something we constantly try to eliminate. The new store goes a long way toward helping us move towards our goal of having a lean site. This will, in turn, help our visitors achieve their goal of finding the online training and coaching options that suit their needs.
