Very informativeFeb 11, 2014

First of all thank you for this interesting webinar! It gave me quite some approaches, I didn't think about before.

However, I was wondering where we can get the corresponding materials (presentation, the plan template, etc.). I thought we would get an e-mail where we can download it, but I haven't received anything. Did I miss something or hasn't it been sent out yet? Thank you for clarification.
