Minutes Matter and the WFCP have teamed up again to offer you the Studio Designer Coaching Program

 

 

 

The WFCP Studio Designer Coaching Program for Minutes Matter Studio is offered exclusively through the WFCP (Window Fashions Certification Program™) and Minutes Matter. We find that most people are barely skimming the surface of how they can fully utilize the multi-faceted Studio software in their business. Here’s your chance to become a Studio Authority.
The WFCP Studio Designer Coaching program, taught by Merlyn Corcoran,  Studio Instructor with Minutes Matter, is offered in two levels:
·         The novice level coaching program is designed to help beginners learn the skills and shortcuts needed to create professional renderings faster and with less frustration, avoiding common oversights.
·         *The advanced level coaching program, experienced Studio users will be exposed to techniques and tools which will add polish, depth, and dimension to their renderings, as well as enabling them to use Studio to design brochures, newsletters, and other marketing materials.

 
 
How will the Studio designer coaching program work?
During our coaching sessions, you will create full renderings from scratch and also design directly on a photo of your client's room. In the Novice program, we'll move slowly; the six-week program will allow us to explore the tools and functions in depth. In the Advanced program, we'll jump right into the specifics of drawing tools, perspective, photo editing, and fill effects.
