How we select Lightning Lessons to be featured on Maven

<a href="https://maven.com/lightning-lessons" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Maven's Lightning Lesson discovery page</a> is curated by our Marketing team. A limited number of lessons are featured each week and tagged with the appropriate category. The "Featured" category rotates on a monthly basis and will showcase a specific theme.

Once your lesson page is published, you can start promoting it and get signups immediately. You do not need to be featured by Maven to host and promote your lesson.

Here is what the Marketing team will take into account when selecting Lightning Lessons to be featured on the website:

The lesson already has significant traction (minimum 50 registrations)

The lesson page uses Maven's Lightning Lesson <a href="https://bit.ly/maven-ll-image" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">image template</a>

The copy is concise, compelling and free of spelling errors. Some examples of clear and concise copy: <a href="https://maven.com/p/fbabfd/how-to-get-noticed-as-a-high-performing-ic" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Wes Kao</a>, <a href="https://maven.com/p/89f6a9/mastering-real-time-decision-making" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Annie Duke</a>, <a href="https://maven.com/p/d6f977/presenting-designs-to-get-executive-buy-in" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ryan Scott</a>

The topic is relevant and compelling to our Maven audience of mid-career professionals in tech &amp; business

Please note that meeting these requirements does not guarantee that you will be featured.

Can I share the link to my Lightning Lesson even if I'm not featured by Maven? 

1. Yes! Once you publish your lesson page on Maven, you can begin accepting signups.

Can I make adjustments to my Lightning Lesson after I publish? 

1. You can make minor adjustments, but we ask that you don't change your topic or lesson takeaways too much, especially after students have already signed up.
2. Keep in mind that changing the time or date after publication will be an inconvenience to everyone who has already signed up.

Do NOT delete the event in Zoom.
