What's the difference? I have searched and can't find anything telling me the difference between the two. I'm a new consultant and am trying to decide before signing up. Is the premium worth the extra $5 or $6 a month? Also would you recommend doing 1 year over 6 months?

Sorry about all the questions! :)
 
Never be sorry for asking questions. Problems only arise when people don't ask questions.
 
Premium Tools are available for Team Leaders and above. It is a function of the PWS which allows you to send newsletters to your team.

You can read a bit about it on page 16 of the F/W Special Edition CN:

It was announced at NC last year, so the SECN has a nice overview.

It probably is worth the extra $5-6 per month if you have a team to use it with. I don't know if it would be worth it for a Team Leader, but for a Director, and especially an upper level director for sure.

Thank you! That helps a LOT!
 
Actually, I re-read the article, and it does say Premium Tools is available to all PWS subscribers.
