I was talking with a startup that has an existing audience and now want to provide a monthly subscription for access to training to this audience. They will only convert a portion of the audience to the new service. The learners will get access to webinars, recorded webinars, videos, and other online content that they will author separately.
They don't really have a tech team, so going with a hosted solution that would live at a subdomain would be best, i.e., subscribers would go to: learn.company.com in order to sign up, pay, and get access to webinars, content, etc.
They are early stage, so low-cost would be good. And it would be nice if it was a Rapid LMS.
I'm a little concerned how well LMS solutions will handle the webinar integration and the subscriptions.
What would you recommend they research as possible options?
