Script, bullet points, or just hit record?
Hi instructors, Let's talk about what happens before you hit record. We know that some instructors write out every word. Some prepare a few bullet points and take it from there.

Anyone Else Seeing less or Zero Promotion/Referral Revenue This Month?
Hi Instructors, I’ve noticed that this month the revenue from the promo/referral program has dropped or stopped completely. It’s not that traffic isn’t coming in. In fact, traffic from promotions is higher than ever, but the revenue has stopped. We faced the same situation around January/February. Has anyone else noticed…

Phone Number Support
Is there a Udemy phone number where I can ask all my questions about posting an instructor course verbally. I have like 10 questions that aren't discussed on the Udemy platform and I'd rather speak to someone opposed to typing a long list of questions in the discussion chat.

Videos audio issues with Safari, anyone else?
It seems hard to contact support about this and they are saying they are currently overflooded with tickets so I ask here first if anyone else knows or has had issues with Safari and hearing audio on that browser. Chrome seems to work. Anyone else knows why or has an idea if it's standard on Safari to have issues? Thank…

Paid Communities
I recently noticed a "Community-based" badge on some courses. Upon clicking on the instructor's profile, I found a much more elaborate page that offers the option to pay a monthly fee for access to various features—as well as, it seems, the instructor's courses. Does anyone know anything about this feature?

Some thoughts about this community.
Every day, there’s an instructor complaining about declining revenue. Announcements about useless things that students don’t need or want (role-plays, for example). Instructors who use ChatGPT to write comments just to boost engagement or whatever their goal is. Sycophants agreeing with everyone else. AI specialists who…

Cloned, AI, or own voice
I have been experimenting with using an AI voice and cloning my own voice. Does Udemy / Coursea require that I let subscribers know if I am using an AI or cloned voice? Also, is there any evidence showing whether your own voice is more effective than a cloned or AI-generated voice? Many thanks in advance
