Perfect Submissions Course

Everything you need to know to submit your designs to publications

This course shows exactly what I do from concept to acceptance. I share all of my secrets and tips that have brought me thousands of dollars yearly in extra income. All this from doing something I love while working full-time and juggling four young kids!

I started designing in 2011 with no real idea of what to expect. I learned a lot through trial and error and now I want to help new designers who are just starting out get their foot in the door. There's no real help out there showing you exactly what to do - just some incomplete posts and vague ideas. I will show you every step of what I have learned along the way.

With my course, you can create submission proposals that will give you an advantage in a few hours a week. Whether you want to stay home with your kids and earn some income along the way or you want to start a career that could lead to becoming a well-known author, this course is what you need to get started.

Here's what you can expect:

  • How to find submission calls
  • How to put together an amazing proposal
  • Sketching Basics (you don't have to be an artist!)
  • Swatching 101
  • What to do when you get an acceptance
  • Handling Contracts and Negotiating Prices

All course modules include video. You will learn exactly how to put together a submissions proposal and where to send them. You will learn what is a fair price for a design and how much work you can reasonably take on.

You work through this course at your own pace so you can fit it into your schedule. You have lifetime access to all the information so you can go back and review any section at any time - no matter how long it's been. If you've been thinking about trying your hand at designing, you have got to try this course.

Who am I to teach this course? My name is Amanda Saladin and I have over 60 designs published to date in almost every major knit and crochet publication as well as yarn company websites.

I self-publish my own free knit and crochet patterns at lovelifeyarn.com and want to help others realize their dream of seeing their designs in publications. Can you imagine opening up your favorite knitting or crocheting magazine and seeing your design inside? Let me help your dream come true!
