Companion site, workbook, and links

To assist you on your journey, I have a few additional tools for further support. First, the companion site! Located at Signuptolaunch.com, this site offers additional tutorials and inspiration. It also includes a downloadable workbook containing all the build-along milestones and resources for each chapter.

Writing a book about an online tool without utilizing links to other online resources is nearly impossible. However, ensuring the functionality of those links over time can be challenging. That’s why I have used a tool called Permanent Link to monitor these links and ensure they remain active, no matter how long after publication you access them.

Lastly, as a Squarespace professional, I have an affiliate relationship with some of the tools I recommend. If you use the links I provide and make a purchase, I may receive a commission. Please be assured that I will only recommend products that I genuinely believe in and use myself.
