What we our planning is a full on line resource center complete with product information and tips on all lines. The samples we create monthly will come to you in a hard copy portfolio ready format that can be used to sell from and will coincide with a video demonstration located on the site. The samples will be from all aspects of decorative finishing and will vary monthly. We plan to do the research on new lines coming out and all the present offerings. This will allow us to give our subscribers a broader understanding of what is available and how the many lines vary in their strengths. All samples will come, not only with info on what we used, but what comparative product could be used . The resource center will have many useful tools including a glossary of terms, project calculator and estimate program, inspirational material and design library and crossover reference tool for the many lines of professional decorative products.We are still working on much of this content but wanted to launch the idea and see if we could create a buzz. We have some very high profile projects coming up that will stretch our creativity to its limits and will be the very samples we pass on to the subscriber. We will launch the site with a sample archive of methods being available for purchase on a piece by piece basis. In addition to the methods subscribers receive automatically, they will be entitled to archived methods at a discounted price.Our goal is to pass along our experiences and ideas without being bound to and influenced by a product we are selling. In short we want put integrity into instruction and deliver it with proper support and in an affordable fashion. At the $35 a month price point, we will deliver 60 different samples with in one year at the cost of $420. Compared to the cost of one in studio class, we hope people will feel as we do, that this a great deal. We still encourage in studio training, as the hands on experience you receive is of vital importance to a successful career, but see this as an affordable way to constantly update you portfolio with fresh looks.We will be launching more info in the coming weeks and would love your input on aspects or features you would find useful.
Thanks again,
Anthony and Jason

I think this sounds like a great idea . I hope it's something you guys can keep up with. It sounds extremely ambitious but if anyone can do it I think it would be you two. If you are ever in a bind with time or would like an occasional outside opinion on a particular finish or product feel free to solicit me if need be. I love the fact that you're not trying to move product, only ideas and information. I think that does lend a lot of credibilty. Good luck and I look forward to more info.
This is awesome. This is a great way to stay on the cutting edge of new ideas and learn from the best. Sometimes its hard to take a full week and go away to learn new finishes, but this makes it easy to do according to your own schedule while you have the time. I'm sold. Can't wait for the first edition.
