4. TOOLS and TRICKS of the TRADE

In your Consultants Portal there is a section called Useful and Custom links. Then it has a sub-heading called Useful Websites. Go and study it. For your convenience I also copied the text and pasted it below in plain text. The next tool is one that is not on the list yet:

Tailorbrands.com - online tool that automatically creates mock-ups / ideas for logos. You only pay when you download it. If you don’t want to pay you can use it to make screengrabs to show your clients various options and then just design a final one yourself.

5. TRAINING MANUAL: Here is a link to a brand new PDF training manual for new Consultants (the doc can also be found in your Consultants Portal under General Documents or just here on an open page https://www.kwikwaptraining.co.za/wdocs.php ). This is the only document you need in order to train new consultants.

6. EMAILHELP.co.za : This website has all the information you need in order to help someone to set up or troubleshoot an email address.

ProTip 1: If you see an error, Google it

ProTip 2: This website also has a link to where you can find amazing online tools to help you set up an email address on all cell phones.
