Before We Go (and your last chance for deals!)
Oh yes, that's us on our most recent adventure together at Craftcation... in case you were wondering how we were managing not being business partners any more! ;)
*Cue the music*: It's the final countdown! After tomorrow we are done-zo. You'll have until 9pm PT/ Midnight ET May 1 and then we will pull the plug.
If you haven't heard yet, we are going to be closing Academy of Handmade. And the fire sale we are doing right is pretty phenomenal. We know a lot of you have taken advantage of the killer deals... but some have have put it off! Do so no longer. :)
If you were ever on the fence about Jumpstart or just couldn’t make that Crowdcast session, now’s your chance to take advantage of our business-building efforts and grab some helpful programs, worksheets, and webinars that will disappear entirely in short order.
After you purchase... don't worry, we aren't totally gone. ;) We'll still answer questions you might have about your purchase through May 15.
THANK YOUS & SHOUT OUTS
Before we wrap this up, we wanted to thank people who have really been so key in believing in us, supporting us and cheerleading us! This really has been about the friends we made along the way.
Our team: Nessa, Lisa, Sandy and Miriam-- it was such a pleasure working with you ladies!
All our former chapter leaders... you ladies really believed in us and worked hard to help other makers!
Our awards winners and nominees, including our three Master Makers: Jenny Hart, Erin Dollar and Robert Mahar... so honored and amazed by your talents!
Our super-friends and cheerleaders: Lizzie Mae, Rosalie Gale, Holly Marsh, Rebecca Saylor, Nicole Stevenson, Tina Rodas, Jenn Lamb, Katie Hunt, Annika Chaloff, Robin Soltis, Kimberly Taylor-Pestell, Tiffany Kuo... and so many more that we're for sure forgetting!
Our serial experts: Stacia Guzzo, Kirsten Pumphrey, Kylie Fattor, Adrienne Wiley, Lela Barker, Arianne Foulks, Marlo Miyashiro, Lisa Anderson Shaffer, Sarah Mandell, and Carolyn Caffelle. You all made our programming and content better!
