This caught my attention due to the line "Alternative to Designrr". I've been using that platform for a year and it's very good (link to my review below) but not without its quirks.

I've only had a quick play with Beacon and so far I'm loving what I see. The tutorials are well done and explain why you might want to use the different options before showing you how to use them.

Pros:
- Can create eBook, checklists, resource guides, workbooks, email templates and video lookbooks
- Templates all look really good
- Supportive lessons to get started
- Wide range of publication options
- Integrate Google Analytics to track stats
- Opt-in form options (fully investigated, they appear to look great & be easy to implement)
- Wide integration for mail providers (including SendFox)

Cons (compared to Designrr):
- Can only import from a blog, can't import from existing docs or YouTube videos
- No inbuilt stock image library
- No 3D cover/situational photo creator

So far I think this is a really good deal, one that will compliment my use of Designrr rather than completely replacing it. Not sure what Designrr is? Check out my review: https://youtu.be/k7WU2u5OZpQ

Once I've had additional experience with Beacon I may do a comparison vid so if there are any specific questions let me know and I'll do my best to include an answer in any future videos I make.
