Hi, I'm  Sharyn Sheldon

I’m a passionate learner who is fanatical about well-written content, hates to waste time, and loves to share my knowledge with others. I’ve also spent over 30 years creating marketing and training programs for Fortune 500 companies, small businesses, and entrepreneurs.

During that time, I’ve built up my own flourishing businesses as a training consultant and then as a provider of brandable, ready-to-teach business and marketing courses. In other words, we create the courses and YOU get to teach them under YOUR name!

You can also expect to see tutorials, tips, and other content marketing news on our Blog.  I LOVE sharing little tricks I’ve learned as soon as I’ve discovered them!

You can expect the highest level of professional quality in every little piece of content we create for you here at Content Sparks, so you can be completely confident when you deliver your course to your audience. I'm a stickler for detail, so you don't have to be.

About Content Sparks

I founded Content Sparks in 2010 as a solution for enlightened business coaches, consultants, service providers, and entrepreneurs like you – who know the enormous value of quality educational content for growing your business and helping your customers. You just don’t have time to create enough star-quality content without sacrificing something else in your business or your life.

So I decided to create that content for you. Every month, my team and I design and develop new, ready-to-teach courses for you to use in your business. They include content for lead generation, working with your customers, and creating your own signature products and programs.

Our Content Philosophy

At Content Sparks, we believe that each piece of content you get should be designed to achieve a specific result for your customers that will impact their business success AND their lives. That includes learning skills for their own professional development and for implementing different strategies and tactics for growing their businesses.

We use the proven guidelines and best practices of instructional design for analyzing just what results your audience wants, and what they need to be able to do to achieve them.

When it comes to the actual development of our content, these are the guidelines we follow:

Actionable

Your students must be able to put what they learn into action. They must come away from your content having achieved their goals.

Adaptable

You must have the option to adapt your content for different people’s learning styles – seeing, reading, listening, and implementing.

Flexible

Content must be flexible for use with different markets. You should be able to easily swap out one example for another, or change language wherever needed.

Modular

All training programs should be modular, so that you can move things around or deliver it in large or small pieces. At the same time, each piece should build on another.

Evergreen

Content should be as evergreen as possible. This isn’t always realistic, especially when it comes to social media or resource links. That’s why we revisit our products periodically to check for updates needed.

Value-Packed

You can expect a huge amount of value for your content investment. That includes being able to repurpose your content over and over for different needs.
