Free Miva Merchant Webinars: New Benefit for Advanced Subscribers

Advanced Tutorial subscribers have always been invited to request tutorial topics. As a new added benefit, each month I will be hosting a 60 to 90 minute Webinar, with screen sharing and voice, to answer your Miva Merchant questions - LIVE! All active Advanced Tutorial subscribers will receive an invitation and code for exclusive Internet access.

Webinar

First Webinar

  • Date: Tuesday, August 25, 2009
  • Time: 7 pm eastern

I'll be using Yuuguu, but you won't need to download anything. You'll need to dial in on a phone (or Skype or whatever) for sound, and that info will be available at the time of the conference.

If you are an Advanced Tutorials subscriber, expect an email this weekend. If you're not yet subscribed to the Advanced Tutorials, it's time to sign up or upgrade. Sign up for Advanced Tutorials here. If you're an Intermediate Subscriber, contact Miva Merchant to upgrade.

Miva Merchant has sent out a newsletter that features MerchantTutorials.com. You can see it here. It's beautiful, if I may say so myself. Check out the testimonials, too.

10 Questions with Chuck Lasker of MerchantTutorials.com

Susan Petracco of NetBlazon, Miva Merchant module developers and consultants, interviewed me in San Diego a few months ago during the Miva Merchant User Conference. They posted the video of the interview at their DoublePlus blog:

Please ignore the way I don't know what to do with my hands, a la Ricky Bobby in Talladega Nights...

Miva Merchant Skins – Free Tutorials!

If you do not have the design experience necessary to create a professional looking online store, and you don't have the funds to hire a professional designer, you might consider using a Miva Merchant Skin. For a relatively low price (discounted at the moment), you can have a professional-quality design that you can customize fairly easily. At the time of this post, there are 26 designs, from Children's Store to Electronics Store.

Go To Miva Merchant Skins Page

I have created four tutorials for the Advanced Subscribers about how to work with Skins. However, in order to help those who are thinking about purchasing a Skin or who have bought one and are struggling, I'm putting them here for everyone at no charge.

New Miva Merchant User Toolbar

Are you like me, tired of going to bookmarks every time you want to go to the Miva Merchant user forum, or to your MerchantTutorials.com tutorials page? Looking for quick access to the best available information about Miva Merchant?

I created a browser toolbar that has hand-selected links to module sites, Miva Merchant related blogs, official Miva Merchant docs, as well as some cool optional features like an email notifier, To Do list, and more. What's best is it's completely unobtrusive, unlike some of the spammy junk toolbars out there. And it's free.

Your first question is, what about spyware and spam and privacy? This toolbar is certified to be free of all that junk. Check out the privacy page. It is certified by TRUSTe, too.

Of course, I have a tutorial showing how to install and some of its features.

Give it a try. If you don't like it, it's easy to uninstall. Available for Internet Explorer and FireFox only, though. Click the image to go to the download page.

If you have suggestions for links or other features, please let me know.
