I am so excited that you've made the decision to join our class! We are in for so much fun, and I think you'll LOVE what you can make! First and foremost, I think you are awesome. Anyone who takes the risk to register for a class online is inherently awesome, but you are even MORE awesome because you've chosen to do that here. Not only are you here to build your business asset-by-asset, you're building knowledge and skills that will benefit you for the rest of your life, I really believe that. And I'm here to help you on that journey. I really am.

Each week we'll be talking about a specific subject related to designing and developing our authentic brand - the brand of YOU. You can check out the syllabus for the specific lessons.

What to Expect

This course is set up on a ten-week schedule, with an extra few days tossed in at the front to get up and running. So our course begins on January 3 and will end in March. Here are the details of how the course will proceed:

• ON YOUR OWN TIME: You won't need to be on at a specific time to view the lessons and complete the assignments
• FOREVER ACCESS: and you have access to all the course materials FOREVER.
• NEW LESSON 2x weekly: I'll send you an email when the new week's materials go up, on Monday and Thursday. These will often, but not always, be divided into the self/business development and technology/graphical development halves of our course. I'm so excited for this new course format, and I'm anxious to hear your feedback on the course structure
• PRIVATE FORUM: Part of the beauty of an online class is the chance to learn and participate with a group of like-minded people, and for this course we'll have some great fun in our private forum. I'll be giving assignments for posting there, but of course I encourage you to hop over to ask and answer questions, get to know your cohort and learn from each other. There's no better way to build a business!

Weekly Schedule

At the beginning of each week, I'll share the roadmap for that week, including the specific lessons and assignments. Each week will be divided into some business/self development and some technical development. Look for an email on Mondays and Thursdays when new content goes up.

As far as time involvement goes, I suggest planning for about 5 hours per week to absorb all the materials and complete the assignments. I'll also have plenty of outside reading if you'd like to dive deeper into any aspect of the material that interests you!

Read Some Good Stuff

Please take a minute to go read my Welcome Letter, and my article that will help you Prepare for Success. There's good stuff there. Really good.

So. We both agree that you're awesome. We know I'm here to give you the skills and knowledge you're looking for. But sometimes, things go awry. Good thing there's lots of help right close by!

What If You Need Help?

If you need something (especially if it's answers and not, say, another egg for the cookies you're baking. Mmmmm. Cookies....), there are several ways to get them (answers, not eggs).
