2023 SPRING HOME PAGE
THIS IS THE HOME PAGE FOR SPRING 2023 MEMBERSJOIN US AT THE MENTORSHIP GROUP
This is a one-fee, lifetime offer. No recurring payments. The group is robust, professional, and we get a lot done every week. From help with finding clients, portfolio building, bidding, billing, and the occasional cranky customer, the group has your back. We meet three times per week, but you can come to one or all, it is up to you. I am super proud of my Mentorship Group, and I keep the numbers small so we can get a lot done.
MORE INFORMATION AND ACCESS TO MEMBERSHIP HERE.
NEW:
30 DAYS OF PHOTOSHOP (FREE)
If you are not proficient in basic Photoshop, may I highly suggest you take this free course at Phlearn. 30 short, but excellent Photoshop tutorials designed to teach you how to think about and use the basic power of Photoshop. It will certainly come in handy as we begin the classes.
Book Templates for you to use for your own.
REMEMBER; You cannot simply cut and paste, use them as a researcher’s first draft.
NOTE: IMPORTANT
