# Recast Software
## Launch style
Chris is main POC for content
Tech stack manager for user manager
Alison is Chris' back up
End of Q3 Launch, maybe a soft launch?
Moving to Vegas, 2 weeks gone in - August 22-Sept 5
* Content:
5-7 courses, completely thought out with quizzes etc
Each course to a different audience
No certification just yet - worry about it later.
Can we MVP launch by September 1?
Primary objective is solid courses, showing off Recast's top tools
Can QA team test in a shorter time period? Currently, 2 weeks
Advocacy program is key customers, a larger base with more than just the academy
There will also be an internal team - SEs for technical, Marketing for branding etc,
For design - chris is going to have a design brief with the marketing team for a kick-off
Alison out week of July 11th
Question: discussed during sales process, badges and points

Chris to provide blog feed
DV featured courses should have description short description
remove events leave or remove column

* Chris to grab screenshots from all the videos that are to be uploaded to Wistia for the non-video.
* Going live tomorrow - 11/16
* 14 out of the 29 people responded to Recast saying they want to be registered and part of the academy.
* Chris will send out beta test questionnaire
* After he finished everything, he realized that the nature of the software (which isn't exciting, but necessary), is quite boring which means the courses can get a bit boring.
* After this beta, we will find out if his learners love the academy or not. "It's better than documentation"
* Hard & Full launch of the academy on December 5th.
* Logic for december 5th? December becomes a very slow season for tech industry
* They have a number of initiatives company wide
* Conflict between deadlines and they don't want to take away from those initiatives
* Email that will correspond with another campaign in the company
*Zero State Messages*
* If someone has no courses or LPs - what should the zero state message be?
* Should we hide the sub nav option is there are no LP's available?
* Chris to talk to Marketing about what would be best for zero states.
*Other Items from Chris:*
* He wants to separate intstructors for ILTs and Courses. Why?
* One of his instructors does a review course, but they don't have any webinars right now, but wanted to make it look more full. Not bare bones.
* The problem for Recast is that the people who do webinars are not part of their company. So giving them manager access is a bit concerning.
* Working with IT guy on DNS items. His guy made all the changes (roughly 30 min ago) but Northpass still says pending.
* He couldn't add the TXT record because of string length, he just left it as "recastsoftware". Max length = 1024, Provider =
* TTL is one hour, so it could take some time.

Other: Chris giving a webinar "Quick Start Guide for the Academy". He will be teasing Certs and LPs in the webinar. He will show the UI for a learning path and other random objects.
