Collaborate
and Create.

Are you stuck? Overwhelmed? Tired of training that just doesn't work?

Whether you're leading an L&D team or trying to improve the way your organization learns, you’re here because something isn’t working...

- Training is ignored, or worse, completed and forgotten.
- Your team is buried in requests with no time to think strategically.
- Leadership keeps asking for proof of impact, and you’re not sure what to show.
- The tools don’t talk to each other, and nothing feels efficient.
- You’ve launched programs, redesigned content, maybe even brought in help, but performance still hasn’t improved.
- You’ve done everything you can with the time, team, and tools you have... it's still not enough.

That's okay! That's why we're here.

Custom proposals are based on your goals, priorities, and internal bandwidth.

Instructional Design Services

For teams who need an experienced partner to create learning experiences from scratch, or clean up something that’s already launched.

We design and build:
- Asynchronous or facilitated programs
- Curricula for onboarding, leadership, or systems training
- Performance support tools like job aids and resource hubs
- Evaluation plans to track what matters (not just completions)
- Strategic comms and messaging for rollouts or change initiatives

Projects typically start at $3,500
We’ll scope and price based on what you need, how fast, and who’s involved.
You’re a fit if…
✔ You’re responsible for learning, but it’s not your background
✔ Your team is capable, but under-supported
✔ You’re tired of one-off courses that don’t lead to anything
✔ You need a partner... not a vendor, a course, or a platform
✔ You’re open to change, even if you’re not sure where to start

📩 Email heidi@getusefulstuff.com with what you’re working on.

If it’s a fit, we’ll talk next steps. If not, we’ll point you in the right direction.

Let’s make learning your learning more useful together.
