The MacMost Newsletter: Issue #629 January 21, 2021 New Courses 40% Off Sale Ends Tomorrow
Last week I announced that I have three new mini courses:
Photos,
Automator and
Final Cut Pro. These are all 10-lesson mini courses on subjects that people have been asking me to cover. Mini courses won't take up as much of your time as my regular longer courses, and come in at half the price.
There is a special coupon to celebrate the launch of these three courses that expires at the end of the day tomorrow. Until then, use the code
pistachio to get 40% off the regular price for these courses! The courses are usually $19.95 USD each, but with this code you'll get them for $11.97 USD each.
When you buy a course at the MacMost Courses site, you can take as long as you like to view the lessons and return to watch them as often as you like.
The new courses are listed on the right side of the main home page for the Courses site. Click on any one to read more about it, view a table of contents, and watch a sample lesson if you like. The code "pistachio" takes 40% off the price for each of these three courses when you get to the Cart page. Remember to check that it is applied to the "Total" price before you check out.
