"If you don't invest in training, you'll pay for it elsewhere—through turnover, lost productivity, or poor customer experiences," says Alecia Geter, Founder & CEO, Gaitway Learning. In this episode of Technology Reseller News, Alecia Geter, founder of Gaitway Learning, joins Doug Green to discuss how effective training and talent development drive business success. With a background in corporate training, HR, and leadership development, Geter helps businesses create structured systems that not only engage employees but also improve retention, reduce hiring costs, and enhance customer service. The Hidden Costs of Poor Training Many businesses underestimate how basic onboarding and skill development impact the bottom line. Geter shares eye-opening examples of companies failing to provide employees with login credentials, clear job responsibilities, or even proper management support—leading to frustration, inefficiency, and high turnover. Common mistakes include: Employees receiving laptops without login credentials Workers unsure of who their manager is Sales teams not fully understanding what they're selling Lack of structured training leading to lost productivity "When businesses neglect training, the problem doesn't disappear—it shifts into hiring struggles, lost revenue, and frustrated customers," says Geter. A Smarter Approach to Employee Development At Gaitway Learning, the focus is on tailored, scalable talent development. Whether through needs assessments, leadership workshops, or fractional L&D services, Geter's firm meets businesses where they are, ensuring training investments deliver real ROI. Fractional L&D Services: Scalable solutions for businesses without a full-time training team Workshops & Courses: Soft skills training to complement AI-driven automation Structured Onboarding: Reducing turnover by equipping employees from day one Why Training is Essential for MSPs & Technology Resellers At IT Expo & MSP Expo, a major issue discussed was sales teams struggling to sell what they don't fully understand. Geter emphasizes the need for product training and knowledge management to ensure sales teams confidently present solutions to customers. Success Story: One client cut training time from 5,000+ hours to 1,800 hours annually, simply by implementing structured learning plans and tracking systems—saving time and money. Making Training Affordable & Effective For SMBs worried about budget constraints, Geter offers cost-effective training strategies that don't require hiring full-time staff. "You don't have to hire an entire L&D department—start with a needs analysis, build a roadmap, and engage only when needed," says Geter.

It's crazy to think that direct mail advertising feels so archaic today.Since those beginning days, marketing has become elaborate billboards, sponsored posts across social media, TikTok brand accounts attempting humor, and even AI-driven campaigns. We've come a long way... And Jay Schwedelson has been around to watch this insane marketing evolution.Jay is the founder of GURU Media Hub, President and CEO of Outcome Media, AND the founder of Subjectline.com. Yeah, this guy's the real deal. It was so awesome to have Jay on Hire Learning and pick his brain on everything from personal branding tips, to direct mail and the future of marketing. He even clues us in on what he would change about the reality show "Love is Blind"

Wondering how AI will impact your business? Leave it to Jig Patel, the Global Chief Technology Officer of Morningstar Technologies, to break it down for you. Jig is a fantastic speaker and has incredible experience in the financial services world and technology. It was great to have the opportunity to pick his brain on this week's episode of Hire Learning! We discussed the future of business with AI in the picture and, more generally, what he's looking for from people he hires into his team. Naturally, I also had to sneak in a little bit of sports talk
