"Webinars"

A lot of people have never been on a webinar before. So what "IS" a webinar?  It's a "web - seminar" and it mean a live presentation made on the internet. 

Register for our webinars on our websites and come on in for the shows!  They're fun and educational too. 



Daily News Retiring...

After almost a year and a half of the current iteration of the Daily News, we will discontinue this advertising service. Details below under "Daily News".

How To Back Up
Your Hard Drive


No-Cost Webinar on Tuesday March 12th at 7pm Central



When was the last time YOU made a backup of your hard drive?  Just a reminder here to do it.  And if you don't know how to make a backup, don't just wait for something bad to happen... ask for help in getting it done! 

We all grew up with photo albums or maybe old shoeboxes full of family photos. Those days are GONE!  You photos now are on some hard drive and THOSE can not be replaced so don't neglect making backups just because you don't know how! 

We will host a LIVE ONLINE SEMINAR on different ways to backup your computer's hard drive on  Tuesday, March 12th, 2013 at 7pm Central Time!

New Digitizers Joining The ATW Digitizing Team As Apprentices!


We are happy to welcome several new members to Holly's digitizing team from her latest apprentice class.  For those of you who are new to reading our newsletter, the apprentice class is an intense 8 week training course we run once or twice a year online.  The class is most similar to Army "boot-camp" with students learning and digitizing at a frenzied pace throughout the course.

The people who excel in the class are invited to stay on for a 1 year apprenticeship with Holly to learn what running a digitizing business is really like.  The apprentice digitizers are paid for digitizing for ATW and continue to receive Holly's coaching while they learn.

The hardest part of being in the apprentice class is not learning to digitize, it's learning to balance the demands of the course with the "stuff" that happens in life at the same time.  It's more of a marathon than a sprint because students get a taste of what it's like to deal with the day-in and day-out challenges that come along while trying to digitize for a business at the same time.

What is the "life" that happens along the way?  Invariably embroidery machines will break, computers will stop working, files will be lost, people will be sick, family members have major issues, job demands get in the way, etc.  We know ALL these things will happen to students because they happen to us.  And the hardest of the 3 "ups" is to "keep up" when other things are happening. 

Congratulations to the new team members...

After a couple years in it's current format, the Daily News is being discontinued. It will run for another 30 days for those advertisers who have already paid for the next 30 days but we will close after that time.

I am sure some other person will come up with an advertising venue to replicate the site within hours of this announcement going out.

We wish continued success to all our advertisers and readers of the daily news but need to focus our time on the ATW and YCD websites and other projects that are pending.
