π Big news! After 5+ years of consulting work under the R for the Rest of Us name, I'm launching Clarity Data Studio.
The name confusion was real β people thought we only did courses, not knowing about our consulting work building reports, websites, and more.

With our R in 3 Months program, we give out multiple scholarships. However, some recipients barely participate at all. This is frustrating because we pass over other recipients who likely would participate further. Any ideas for how we can ensure that scholarship recipients actively participate?

Oh man, wish I had a solution for that problem. In this case, we were actually just implementing the template that the client provided in Canva so there was very little back and forth.

Running a business, you get some weird marketing pitches. Today's might be the weirdest: putting R for the Rest of Us on the side of a Nascar race race. I appreciate the sentiment, but not sure it's the best way for me to reach customers!
