Some things were overwhelming before, but now it seems like I can take those on and have confidence. I am saving so much time now that I don’t have to Google things and watch YouTube videos.”

What challenges did you have using Excel?
My name is Jonathan, and I am the wholesale sales manager for Global Healing. We sell organic nutrition and supplements.
I use Excel for many spreadsheets, order tracking, profit and loss statements, and other revenue spreadsheets. I use it all the time.
If there’s a request for a table or a graph chart, that gave me a lot of anxiety. I knew I would have to Google all over the place and figure out how to put a graph chart in the spreadsheet.
Growing up, I was always just putting spreadsheets together with raw numbers and adding columns with a summation, and that was about it.
We didn’t have all these drop-in tables and pie charts and graphs. I felt like I was lacking, and I wanted to get some extra help.
What was your Eureka moment?
I like the way the course is broken into short segments. I am super busy, so I don’t have time to do a whole hour at a time. I like that they’re broken into five or six-minute clips.
There was a lot of stuff in the toolbar that I didn’t even use and didn’t know was available. Even from the first lessons, I realized there were so many shortcuts that I was not even aware of.
Now I am saving so much time. I don’t have to Google things and can start on my tasks without learning how to do it first.
How did MyExcelOnline help you?
Now I am feeling more confident and proficient at jumping right in and creating things in Excel. I know where to find functions and don’t have that anxiety about feeling stuck.
Before, I would just procrastinate or avoid tasks because I knew I didn’t know how to do them. I would just put it on the back burner. So I think I have increased confidence to get in there and get things done.
Would you recommend MyExcelOnline?
I would recommend MyExcelOnline. I think the main reason why is the simplicity. I like the way it’s laid out.
The way it keeps your progress so you can close out and come back in, and it’s right there we’re left off, is excellent. I liked the instructor, at least the one that’s doing the beginner course. I haven’t even got to some of the later modules, but he’s very straight forward.
The course itself is slow enough that anyone can pick it up. Most importantly, I like the small snippets that you can just check off as you go, so you don’t need an hour a day to dedicate to it.
