Welcome
Blaine Moore: Hello. It has been a while since we have done a walkthrough of the website, so I just wanted to take a quick tour and show you around some of the latest features and how to find information.Account and Support Links
First, if you aren't logged in or you don't have an account, there will be a sign-up link up here in the navigation.
I'm logged in now, so we don't see it, but you can get a hold of us at any time by clicking on the support link and accessing the help right there.
Homepage and Getting Started
Our homepage is going to show our most recent live trainings as well as the most recent articles that we've written, and some nice places that you can go for getting started with various topics that may be of interest.
You can also access some of those getting started trainings right here by coming up to our Getting Started page, and that will list everything that's good for finding your– what you might need when you're first looking around.
Live Training Schedule
If you're interested in our live trainings, the Live Training page is always going to have our most recent trainings and our next training that's coming up.
We usually hold them on Tuesdays at 1:00 PM Eastern Time. But this will let you know exactly when the next training's going to be and what we'll be covering.
Training Player Features
If you take a look at any of our live trainings, we do have some cool features available for each one of those. So as we scroll down, we can see what the training is about, the actual video.
Our video player does have a chapter list, so you can jump directly to an interesting topic for yourself, and you can also see what those topics are right here on the scrubber. We do have closed captions on all of our trainings, and you can also change the quality or speed that you want to see your video at.
If you'd like, you can pop that into a picture-in-picture, so you can scroll down the page and still have the training here on the side or go into our full screen.
Most of our trainings are going to have a transcript, and as you're reading along, you can click on any specific paragraph and jump directly to that part of the video.
We may also have the chat log available along with any links from the live training and resources for that specific training will also appear.
Live Training Archives
If you want to find any specific trainings, you can find our latest trainings here on the website and scroll through them, or you can choose specific categories, dedicated trainings that we've put on, some of our guests, our hot seat sessions.Courses and Software Tools
We also have a number of courses that you can take a look at and our software.
The Publishing Decision Tree is a new one. This is one that will help you decide what it is that you're going to do with your book depending on what your goals are, and it will create a customized checklist just for you, along with some potential resources that you may want to take a look at.
We also have our Push Button Publishing, which has quite a few different tools. It is a Chrome extension that runs right in your browser and will help you with your research
And we've also been adding some new calculators as well.
Special Reports and Bonuses
Our articles are found under Special Reports, and from here you can find a topic on pretty much anything publishing related.
If there is something you'd like us to write about, let us know and we're happy to add something new. And we also have a number of bonuses, many of which are only going to be available for members of the site, but it is worth taking a look through to see what's available in there as well.
