This is another way I create opt-ins –
the explanation is on the next slide.

12. Explanation of Previous
Slide
• For the previous slide, I wanted a
special background. So, I used
Logo Creator to create one and
saved an image (JPG) of the
background.
• Then I uploaded it into the slide.
• Next I added text and a box for
the “Start Today – CLICK HERE.”
• Then I used Snipping Tool, a free
screenshot clipping tool, and cut
the image to the size I wanted.
• I saved it as a JPG for an opt-in to
a Workshop.
