A Tale of Manufacturing For the last few decades, American companies have outsourced their manufacturing to low wage countries. Household products and clothes made overseas looked the same as the domestic products they replaced. But they did not feel the same. Products broke easily. Clothes became disposable.

And buyers of outsourced online courses are starting to realize that their custom content isn't as effective as it used to be.
