Here’s how it works:
Step One.
Create your masterpiece.
Plan, shoot and edit your project. Your footage can be any HD resolution, and can come from camera footage, screen capture software like Screenflow, or both.
Then finish your edit, export a high quality “original”, and encode the media to our specs.
Create a cover image graphic and a main menu background and you’re ready to author!


Step Two.
Author a real video product.
Forget crappy streaming-only systems and loose movie downloads that give your products little to no perceived value.
Use purple:publisher to author and publish your project as a real commercial video title with quality, features and perceived value far exceeding, say, a Blu Ray disc.
Our clients products are typically priced in the $39.95 – $59.95 range, though Purple is very successful at sellthrough of higher price points due to the extremely high value presented by the 5 star luxury user experience of our platform.
Step Three.
Create your shop.
Upload your custom header with your logo and branding, choose a theme, and add your products to your shop in purple:shop builder.
Your branded purple:shop launches right from your website, your Facebook Page, YouTube channel, a tweet, email, Google ad or anywhere else you can place a link and provides your customers with the web’s finest environment for browsing, searching, previewing, buying and gifting media products.
No need for shopping cart software, security certificates or merchant accounts.
Setup to launch in less than 20 minutes.


Step Four.
Round out your shop selection.
It’s really tough to start a credible educational media business if you only have one or two titles in the early going.
But our revolutionary purple Warehouses make it possible for you to launch even if you only have one title, or none at all!
You can choose complimentary products from over 2,500 excellent titles in our purple Warehouses to add to your shop to fill out your selection and establish credibility for your business. Not only that, you’re making a huge affiliate commission on products you didn’t even create!
You can “follow” a certain product tag, like “jazz guitar”, “Jeet Kune Do” or “Photoshop”, and any new product added to the library with that tag will automatically be added to your shop.
Step Five.
Promote your shop.
Never, ever send customers away from your website.
With platform:purple, when you promote your own courses, you’ll be driving traffic to your own website where you can control your brand and messaging, make sure your content is featured foremost, and most importantly, own your customer information, an essential element in building a successful educational publishing business.
We provide product links and social media buttons to make it easy.
And, our “subID tracking” capability means that you can get a report of exactly where your sales are coming from, and which of your marketing efforts are the most fruitful.


Step Six.
Global syndication.
As soon as you publish a new title, it’s instantly available for purchase not only in your own purple:shop, but also through a global digital distribution network called purple:marketplace, so as purple:marketplace grows, your products are constantly exposed to a wider and wider audience.
Your product will automatically appear in any purple:shop that “follows” a tag your product is tagged with, or follows you as a publisher.
Step Seven.
Real time reports.
purple:dashboard is your control center, giving you a real time window into sales of your products and through your shop.
You can also view and export reports, track the success of your marketing campaigns, create and modify your purple:shops, export customer data, create coupon codes, get direct product links and many other functions.
There’s never any mystery about your sales through platform:purple.


Step Eight.
Relax and enjoy your vacation.
As soon as you publish a new title, it’s instantly available for purchase not only in your own purple:shop, but also through a global digital distribution network called purple:marketplace, so as purple:marketplace grows, your products are constantly exposed to a wider and wider audience.
Your product will automatically appear in any purple:shop that “follows” a tag your product is tagged with, or follows you as a publisher.
