Okay, I'm live.
I have never had this happen,
but it said live streaming was unavailable.
So hello, hello, hello, my friends.
As you're tuning into the live,
share with me where you're visiting from.
Let me know what's going on in your neck of the woods.
I am live here today to talk about
something I'm so excited about.
I know a lot of you are super busy this holiday season,
so I wanted to pop in to have this be like a one-stop shop
our entire team's home.
I sent them home because I was like,
oh my gosh, we have been working so hard
that I was like, it's the day before Thanksgiving.
Do you not want to spend time with your family?
And luckily everyone was like, yes, please.
I do want to spend time with my family.
So I sent them all home for today.
I was home earlier and I'm about to go pick up my mammal.
We're about to make a pumpkin roll.
Y'all, this is like what the holidays are all about.
Spending time with your family, having fun.
I am so excited to be here
because I just wrote a really cool email
that I'm sending to anyone that's on my email list.
So you'll get it.
It's a picture of me, Courtney, the babies
later this evening with a link to the stream.
If you came from the email, hello.
I've been getting so many comments like on Facebook,
in the emails, on the YouTube videos,
like Tanner, I don't know what's happening.
I don't know about the deals.
So first of all, I want to acknowledge,
like I truly, truly, truly understand
that everyone is busy, especially around the holidays.
And I want to be more of a service for you
to get things taken care of and get something out of
because I hate for people to be feeling left out
or not knowing what's going on.
So first of all, we have some incredible Black Friday deals
that are unlike anything we've ever done before.
And just like when I talk about how great it is
when Cricut adds new updates and things like that,
it is so good for us to know what they are
and how to use them, right?
Like that's so important.
But what happens here is when we are getting
all of these new updates and things like that,
you may be confused.
So here is what I wanted to tell you.
Just like when Cricut does crazy stuff,
when Maker's Gonna Learn does crazy stuff,
you might get confused.
So for the first time ever, when you become a year member
or you renew your membership at the lowest rate,
you are getting a meld to you reference guide
and you're getting a amazing burnishing tool.
Now this right here, y'all, is my favorite thing.
I cannot wait for all of you to get this in your hands,
mainly because of this page right here.
I have all my favorite design space functions.
Let this focus real quick.
All of my functions are right here.
They're easy to learn, easy to grasp.
I mean, it's perfect.
So you are going to be so well taken care of.
If you're already grandfathered in at our lowest rate,
you already love your membership, here's what we're doing.
All you need to do is email me, hi at makersgonnalearn.com.
I will mail you a reference guide and a burnishing tool
as a gift from me to you for being here.
So just thank you for your service.
Thank you for your continued love at Makers Gonna Learn.
We are just so grateful.
But if you're not a member,
I need to have a chat with you, right?
I'm talking to anybody that's not a member yet
and you have thought about joining the membership.
Now, what I want to say to you, number one,
is that this membership changed my life
and it's changed so many other people's lives as well.
When you become a member,
you are getting access to 10,000 plus cut files,
a thousand plus fonts, commercial use license,
you're getting 20 plus classes, you're getting courses,
you're getting our community, it's a no brainer.
Do you hear me?
It's a no brainer because what you're paying
is 42 cents a day, all right?
42 cents a day, grandfathered in at our lowest,
absolute lowest price possible.
And I am just so, so grateful that we can offer that to you.
But here's what I want to tell you.
And this is where I just want to be super honest
and super open.
Our membership price is going up in 2023.
Our price right now, if you join at a monthly membership,
is $19.99 a month.
And by February or January of 2023,
it will be $27 to be a member.
So I promise you, for reals,
you do not want to miss out on this deal, all right?
Get joined in.
I want to share with you what you can do
when you become a member.
When you become a member, you'll click over to this page.
You can scroll through and read about it.
I have a special little video for you.
But what you need to know is you need to use
the coupon code BEST.
So here's what I also want to show you.
When you get in, you're getting the reference guide,
the surprise gift, everything like that.
You're getting locked in at this right.
Oh, Holly got her membership today.
Go, Holly, woo-hoo!
Look at this.
You can create with confidence, enjoy creative therapy,
love your Cricut like you'll BFF.
You'll master your machine with Maker's Gonna Learn.
I mean, y'all are getting so much, ooh!
So, so many things, so many great things.
But just scroll on down.
You can click Join Now whenever you're ready.
And then look, our annual membership is actually
less than $15.99 a month when you go annual today.
So if you click Join Now and you use that coupon code,
which is right here, you'll just type in BEST,
you're gonna pay $151.88.
$151.88 is a steal, right?
$151.88 is a steal.
That is only $12.65 for an entire year of crafting with me.
When the price goes to $27 for anyone new,
you are gonna have this price as long as you don't cancel.
Plus I'm mailing you a special gift.
So that's why membership is so important.
Like, the deal ends Friday.
So if you want in, get in.
I would love to have you there.
It is super fun.
When you join, reference guide and burnishing tool.
Love it.
All right, so get in.
Do not miss out, right?
This is our chat.
I'm gonna let everyone know that y'all need it
because I don't want you to be upset with me
and say, oh my gosh, Tanner, you didn't tell me, right?
I'm telling you, I'm letting you know.
I always try to.
So that is incredible.
Now number two.
We launched something that is getting so good.
It's so incredible.
It's so amazing.
It's called Make-A-Thon.
Make-A-Thon is for our friends that are like,
ooh, you love, love, love everything we do here.
You want in and you wanna craft with us
because we've made the crafting experience even better.
And there is no payment plan for your membership.
When you get a year membership, you pay one time in full.
It's an amazing investment in yourself.
You'll love it.
You'll thank yourself.
But Make-A-Thon and other programs we have
do offer payment plans, so we'll go over that.
So Make-A-Thon is so good and we're so excited.
It's a virtual event like never before.
I promise you, you have never been to an event like this.
Okay, you've never been to an event like this.
It's gonna be so much fun.
It's virtual.
It's on March 4th.
And if you're like, I'm already booked March 4th.
Y'all, there's a replay.
You can watch the recording.
Here's where it gets good about Make-A-Thon.
When you grab a ticket, you're saving $70.
No coupon code needed, praise God.
That's awesome, right?
Our team's made it really easy.
I like when we can do that.
Here's where the getting gets good.
You have a ticket to that event.
You'll go in the event with five completed projects,
which is so awesome, right?
I love that.
They're very cost effective.
You'll go be able to afford it.
It's not expensive to make the supplies
and do the projects.
We're being very conscious of that.
We're gonna let you know supply list in January.
We're gonna let you know if there's any prep work
for your class, like what you would need to prep
or anything like that so that by the end of the event,
you have a completed project for each class.
So there'll be five completed projects.
But here's the icing on the cake.
Here's where the getting gets good, like I'm saying.
We and our team have been putting together
some special items to offer as promotions.
This means like, you know, in the future,
if you join the membership, you might get a one-weeding tool
or if you, you know, this and that,
like different promotions, right?
But I said, well, how do I get,
how do I get all of my things to the people
that I know will want all of it?
So if you know you want all the Makers & Learn swag we have,
get a make-a-thon ticket because you're getting it.
I'm so excited.
This is the make-a-thon bag.
This is your swag.
I'm so excited.
You're getting the swag bag, of course,
but then what you're also getting is,
I'm gonna go over it one at a time.
You're getting a Makers & Learn weeding tool set.
I'm so proud of this.
I'm so excited for this.
And I know you all have to be too.
This is Makers & Learn's first weeding tool set
and it is so good.
It is so good.
Kathy, if you emailed in, I've got you one.
The team put it over to the side
and probably put your name on it.
Just waiting for you.
So anyway, what you can see here, I mean, look at this.
It's beautiful.
So when you get a ticket to make-a-thon for free,
the price did not go up for this, like it's included.
You get a bunch of swag,
but the weeding tool set is incredible.
You get one, two, three, four, five,
you get six different tools.
You're getting a new designed burnishing tool.
I'm really enjoying it.
You're getting tweezers.
They're not reverse tweezers,
but they're great for paper crafting, right?
You're gonna love it.
That is awesome.
You're getting a X-Acto Knife and y'all, it's sharp.
It is a sharp, sharp, sharp weeding knife.
It is perfect.
It's amazing.
They are pink.
Yes, they're pink.
I'm so excited.
They have these perfect little like tips on them
so you can like protect yourself,
which y'all know I need.
You're getting a weeding tool.
One thing I like about our weeding tool
is it's very lightweight.
So they're really easy to like weed with,
but again, you'll love this weeding tool.
It's not as sharp as some of the other ones.
It's actually a nice like in the middle weeding tool.
So I think you're gonna enjoy that.
You have a scraper, again, perfect for paper crafting.
I can't wait to start using these in videos
and show you how we use each tool and why you need it.
And then the perfect pair of scissors ever.
You'll love it.
They're really good.
These are so good.
Like, I don't know if you all can tell,
like look at how little, hold on.
Oh my gosh, look at this.
Perfect.
Look at how sharp.
I mean, these scissors are legit.
So you're gonna love it.
Listen, you all hear that?
So you're getting all this
when you say yes to make-a-thon
because I just didn't want you to ever see this
and be like, wait, how do I get it?
We will never, like right now,
we have no other way to get this to you.
So the only way you can purchase this
is getting a Maker's Gonna Learn ticket.
Woo.
Oh my gosh.
When you get a ticket to make-a-thon, you get this.
But there's more.
There's so much more.
Okay, so that's the weeding tool set.
Next up, you're getting a Maker's Gonna Learn
shirt placement chart.
I'm so, so excited for this.
You're gonna love it.
It's very handy.
Always wanted one.
You're getting a weeding tool holder.
So this is the Maker's Gonna Learn weeding tool holder.
Come on, focus.
It's not gonna focus.
This is all too white.
But this is like you can stick the weeding tools
and all your tools in here,
which is a game changer for your craft area.
Am I right?
You're also getting our tape measure.
Maker's Gonna Learn tape measure
because we have a slogan here,
measure twice, cut once.
So now you can measure your blanks and things
with this tape measure for Maker's Gonna Learn.
You can, of course, get stickers.
Because we were like,
we have to hook y'all up with stickers.
So you're getting the stickers
when you get a ticket to make-a-thon for $70 off.
There's four.
One says, I totally could make that.
One says, hello, I'm super crafty, kinda crafty.
And then the MGL logo with a lot of floral.
But we're trying to do something new, can y'all tell?
So that's super fun.
And then you're getting another Cricut reference guide.
So if you're already a year member, you're getting another.
And you're getting another burnishing tool in the back.
So you're getting a ton of things
when you say yes to make-a-thon.
You get a bunch when you say yes to membership.
And then last but not least,
if you would like into Design Make Sell for $50 off,
you can get into Design Make Sell
using the coupon code DMS at checkout.
And what will happen is we will mail you your workbooks,
which is super incredible.
So what questions do we have?
Again, I just wanted to come and make this short video
just so that you all know about the deals.
Because I feel like a lot of us have been really busy
and we haven't got to hang out.
We haven't got to chat as much.
Just because people are traveling,
like unlike the last year or two,
it seems like everyone was kinda in the know a lot better.
Previous years.
So this video is just gonna be here
to let y'all know about the deals.
Now, for urgency purpose, it's Wednesday.
These deals end on Friday.
So getting grandfathered in,
the lowest price on membership,
the bonus physical items mailed to you.
Y'all know that takes a ton of time for our team.
So the deals end for that on Friday at midnight.
You can get a ticket to make-a-thon.
And as long as it says that you can get a swag bag,
you will be getting a swag bag on the page.
We'll update that when we run out.
We have sold upwards of almost 300 tickets, I think,
over 250 now, which is crazy.
So there's only a few hundred available
for make-a-thon purchasers.
So you wanna get in.
What will happen here is once the allotted number
for swag bags are taken,
those will be removed off the page.
So if you want a swag bag,
if you want the weeding tools and things like that,
grab a ticket now.
You can do a two payment or one payment.
It's 127 for Black Friday.
The price for a ticket when we get closer to March is 197.
So you're saving a bunch and getting the swag,
which is cool.
But then what will happen if we run out?
Then on Black Friday,
you will just be able to save the 127.
So I'll probably have to put off make-a-thon
because I've been wanting Design Make Sell
and can't afford both,
especially after the price increase.
Renee, I think I would get in on Design Make Sell
through this promotion
because you will save the amount.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm with you.
I like your thinking.
But I will say, Renee,
if you need a make-a-thon ticket
but you can't pay for it or something until December
or something like that, email Customer Care.
We try to take just really good care of our people.
So if you're a member or you have Design Make Sell
or anything like that, we'll do our best.
Jeff, will you ship to Canada?
Yes, our team did agree to ship to Canada
and probably because my dear, sweet team member,
Sin, lives in Canada.
So we do that.
Gail, I dropped you a link to get a make-a-thon ticket.
That is incredible.
So, so excited for that.
Do we have to wait for March to get this Steffy?
We are mailing this out ASAP.
Did y'all hear me?
ASAP.
Everything's here.
So we are gonna be shipping that out.
I think we shipped out,
I wanna say like 200 orders yesterday.
Like, it's crazy.
Renee, y'all are awesome.
And what will happen, Renee,
is if you get in Design Make Sell,
you'll be able to pay yourself back for Design Make Sell.
Like, people that go in the program,
you can make your enrollment back so easily.
So yeah, we will probably,
just for full transparency about that program,
we are, as of right now,
we're gonna promote it and like offer it,
at least through Black Friday.
And then at the first of the year,
we are revamping some things in there,
making it just better.
And then we'll launch it again probably closer to March.
So super, super fun.
Brenda says, early Christmas present.
Can we talk about y'all for a second?
Can we just talk about Makeathon?
People like to talk about virtual events
and in-person events,
and I stopped offering virtual events.
I used to host like three virtual events a year,
and it was so much fun.
But there were things I didn't love about it.
I didn't think you got to craft along with me.
I didn't like not getting to see you.
So this virtual event, we have completely revamped,
and we're working to make it even better.
So if you would like a ticket to Makeathon,
I just wanna invite you to come.
Again, the swag,
I'm working really hard to make this a great experience.
You're gonna get to see other crafters,
you're gonna get to hear me coach some other crafters,
and that's gonna be a really fun way to have community.
But on top of that,
one thing I find is that for some reason,
we're all givers,
like we all like to show up for other people,
and when we show up for other people over and over,
we forget to show up for ourselves.
So when we sign up for an event like Makeathon,
what happens is it's a dead,
I'm booked on my calendar,
so nothing can come over it and get on top of it,
and you end up not spending time for yourself.
So use Makeathon as that excuse.
It's right at the kickoff of National Craft Month.
Use that as your excuse to craft.
Use you grabbing this event will help you craft more.
I mean, five completed projects.
It takes me two or three weeks
to even do five completed projects,
and let our team worry about what they are,
and you're just gonna show up and have a great time.
If you loved summits in the past,
you will absolutely love this summit.
I promise, I promise, I promise.
Oh my goodness.
Brenda, you are awesome.
It's funny you mentioned that.
I might have something special for you soon,
so that'll be fun.
Oh my goodness.
Well, y'all, it is the day before Thanksgiving.
Are y'all ready?
I don't know if I'm ready.
I don't know.
It's gonna be good.
It's really gonna be good.
Again, I am just so grateful for each of you.
Terry says, how much would Makeathon
and Design Make Sell together be before Friday?
Terry, they both offer payment plans,
so I'll drop you the link,
and you can check those out, both of those.
I just dropped Makeathon.
I'll drop it one more time,
and then what I'll do is drop the Design Make Sell link,
and if you need help with any of this,
our team is here to help you.
We will have customer care working.
We have different shifts this whole week,
so if you need us, we are still go be here
and take advantage.
We invest in our team so that they can invest in you.
This is not a one-man show.
This is not a two-man show.
We have probably 15 full-time employees here,
and I say that not to boast or anything,
but I say that to take advantage of.
We are here to support you.
We are here to help you,
and I am incredibly grateful for the team
that I have the honor and privilege to lead here,
so we are really pumped up to craft with you on Friday,
so as I end out, I do wanna invite you to come back Friday.
I have two special events happening on Friday.
Number one is that every Black Friday,
I have what's called the Black Friday Extravaganza.
It is intense, but it's fun.
We will be live.
I have some crazy good crafts coming.
We planned it all out.
We have everything good, and it's gonna be awesome, right?
It's gonna be awesome.
We're gonna craft together.
We're gonna hang out.
We'll talk about some of the deals and so much more,
so we're gonna craft and hang out from 11 to four,
which is insane.
There's giveaways every half hour, every hour,
there's so many different things happening.
Hi at makersandlearn.com is customer care's email,
and yeah, it's gonna be the best event ever.
It's one of my favorites.
The Black Friday event and our New Year's Eve event
are two of my absolute favorites.
I love both of those.
Lindsey says, I'm more excited about Fridays live
than Thanksgiving.
I just stay home and not go to gatherings.
You will love Black Friday with us.
I personally think it's the best way to do Black Friday.
Okay, so that's what we're doing during the day.
Then I'm a crazy person and realized last year
that I didn't get to talk about deals,
and I personally think the Black Friday extravaganza
just doesn't have any time to slow down
and talk about deals.
So what we've done, Sin, who I mentioned,
is leading up Friday, she's gonna be browsing
all the deals, she's gonna compile them,
and then Friday night, I'm inviting you to hang out
with me in a shop.
Does that not sound fun?
We're gonna shop online from nine to 11.
We are gonna hang out, just me and you,
in my basement, in my office, talking about deals.
So it's gonna be pretty awesome, it's gonna be pretty fun.
So that's nine to 11, Friday night, Eastern.
But the big extravaganza, the whole team,
the whole shebang, is 11 to four, so five hours.
So you can pop in, there'll be breaks, it'll be so good.
Will there be a replay of Friday's daytime event?
Yes, you can go in the archives and see previous events.
It's intense.
We have a craft-off that I never participate in,
I only help create, and then I kinda moderate
and things like that.
So we have that, and then we also have
Crooked Beginner Training, we have some everyday projects,
and it's so much fun.
If we're from Canada, you can get the deals.
Renee finally joined Design Bake Sale, oh my gosh!
Renee, guess what?
Our team will be mailing you both of your workbooks
so you can take full advantage of your program,
and I wanna invite you, we just were able
to add a whole make section.
So Alicia led the make section.
If you are having trouble getting confident
with your crafts to sell professionally,
watch through that training.
Y'all, it is so good, yay!
Aw, Gail says Black Friday last year
is why I became a member.
Literally, Black Friday is so much fun.
We love it, I would do it even if we didn't
have anything to sell.
I think it's literally that much fun for me,
and I look forward to it every year.
Aw, first Black Friday with Makers Gonna Learn,
oh my gosh!
It's gonna be so much fun, it's gonna be so good.
There is a lot to chat about, a lot to hang out about,
and have fun with, so it'll be awesome.
Congratulations, Renee, love the previous craft-off events.
Yeah, it is great, and our team is just so much fun,
so you will have a absolute blast.
And the party is just getting started,
so it's gonna be great.
And again, if you all are not been able
to be here at all this month,
we did launch our new website.
So when you go to makersgonnalearn.com,
you can actually see our brand new website.
And y'all, this is just a labor of love.
Welcome to Makers Gonna Learn 3.0.
This is insane, this is so good, and we love it.
So when you are signed in, you can see
this is your signed in area.
You can browse through cut files,
you can browse through fonts.
I mean, honestly, it's the best platform ever now.
That, I mean, it's our dream platform.
You can browse through all of our Christmas files.
We have a whole new category system and whatnot.
So this will help you as well as search,
and please take advantage of you all.
It is so helpful for me.
You have one click downloads, you can go over to fonts.
Oh my gosh, Patricia, Makers Gonna Sublimate
is literally one of my favorite programs ever.
And if you wanna master sublimation,
you should master it with us,
because we have launched new training in there,
and we added 100 new sublimation files
only for Makers Gonna Sublimate.
So we have quite a few different programs here,
but I don't wanna make it overwhelming.
I just want to pretty much tell you,
if you're not a member, you need to become a member.
Like, that's the best part.
So anyway, this is the new font area.
You can preview text, like, hello, crafters.
And then you can see, like, what it looks like in each font.
So this will help you save a ton of time, which is awesome.
So anyway, if you are looking to,
once you join the website, like, get to the Facebook group,
this is your beautiful new dashboard.
It's like an app.
You can click Facebook group,
and someone asked a question about,
hey, Tanner, what supplies do I need?
Well, over here at the Wanna Craft Along With Us
on Black Friday, look at this.
We have all the links.
We have all of this.
So good.
So yeah, you can go through and just get the links.
So these are the only two things that we are using
that you may not have,
but you'll be able to go ahead and enjoy.
Tanner, can't chat.
I'm driving.
Beth, how are you?
It's so good to hear you,
even though you may be texting and driving.
I won't judge.
Maybe I have before, too.
Anyway, y'all, this is so, so good.
So yeah, you can check out the Facebook group.
There is 12,000 members.
Everyone's posting their different things.
If you want to see a little sneaky sneak,
our members are so crafty.
Can we just take a moment at how crafty y'all are?
Like, this is so much fun.
Like, so many crafts, so much good stuff,
and we're just really proud of you all.
So thank you guys so much for everything you do.
Okay, member, design Excel pro,
makers and sublimate here, all the things.
You guys are awesome.
I get to, I have the best job getting to hang out with you,
getting to serve you day in and day out.
So I'm gonna go pick up my mom.
We're gonna go make a pumpkin roll.
I hope you all are ready to have a great day.
Thanksgiving's tomorrow.
Spend time with your friends and family.
It's gonna be awesome.
And yay, I'm so excited.
Again, if you all need anything, reach out to us.
Hi, at makers.com.
