Thank you for your comments. I've answered everyone of them individually and on my website. I thought APUG would be a great place to interact but my hands are tied. I've offered for over a year as a subscriber to answer questions but the moment I mention myself "I'm advertising." So here is a parting gift to all of you. I did a real time retouching which is posted on my co-developer's site
www.carolkingbutler.com under the navigational bar "Info & Courses." This course will answer everything that 24 years of retouching and spotting has taught me and it's all step-by-step. Everyone who invests in my course gets it for life and can attend my webinars, get a one-to-one with me about their own work and frankly, that's why I created the course. The price of an online course is never given until the day of launch because that allows me to answer questions, talk about it and not have my hard work for now 16 months be treated as this quote so succinctly summarizes: "In Lady Windemere's Fan, Oscar Wilde had Lord Darlington quip that a cynic was 'a man who
knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.' As with so much of what Wilde wrote or said, it's more than just a nice turn of phrase – it hits at the heart of the problems of society."
I've been transparent with the contents (THE WHAT) and anyone can see all my topics and lesson content on the school site. The
WHY is what I teach. You need to decide as a newbie or a professional if you feel what you see will greatly enhance your finished prints.
Here is the personal answer I've sent to those of you who have emailed me about cost:
Cost? Love this question. The reason we don’t give out the price before the launch day is because we do a webinar to show off the contents of the course, answer LIVE any questions and give potential buyers the chance to meet and interact with me. THEN on the first day of the launch (on this one particular webinar which will be via
zoom.us for the record) we give a special bonus to everyone who buys the course the first day. There are other bonuses within the course, but the bonus we announce on the webinar is ONLY if you buy the first day and on the webinar.
When you get my FREE Tools & Resources Checklist you get on my contact list which means I can send you information and the day and time of the launch. We are in Eastern Daylight Standard Time. The course is a premium course but we’ve all paid more for a 2 day conference, hotel and flight (so no it’s not ridiculous). But it will not remain up very long to be bought. We of course will continue to add to it and not charge anyone additional money who are already students, but it will not be for sale for several months after this official release and with each release the cost of the course will increase.
As an online course you have access 24/7. You’ll have a password and can take this course at your own speed. Unlike workshops and other “hands-on” options, my course will be available for you to watch over and over as I have videos and visuals. I have included real time retouching videos. AND I have many Before and After photos. Please again, go to Ofcourseware.xyz and click on the course name “Become a Fearless Traditional Retoucher & Spotter” and you can see the contents of the Modules, the lessons, in other words,
what is inside the course. I can tell you it was well received by our first beta-students. We’ve posted some of the comments they made about having taken the course.
This is a once in a lifetime course opportunity on this subject matter. I am a master and I’ve continuously traditionally retouched and spotted for 24 years. I didn’t want my knowledge to be lost.
So I'm not being negative, just realistic and for those of you who have supported me, email me. I'd be glad to answer any question you may have for me about traditional retouching and spotting. Sincerely, Katherine
