ABOUT THE VIDEOS
Here is a list of the videos in the eBook, which add up to over two-and-a-half hours of instruction. You will be looking over my shoulder and
watching me make decisions based on instinct (and sometimes taking wrong turns). As I said earlier, I wanted you to be right there when something
didn’t go right or when a problem had to be solved.
Feel free to click on any of the videos in the list below to get a sneak preview, but I suggest that you watch them sequentially when you’re ready to
get to work because each one builds on the one before. You can always go back and review something you want to see again.
