Being self-employed or owning a small business can be one of the most challenging yet rewarding professional paths you can take. These are challenging times, not only because the economy is in a downturn, but technology is changing at rate that is just, well, CRAZY!
It seems everyone is on the web these days, and of course successful businesses are EXPECTED to be there! Social networking and blogging are through the roof. You can go out and get a blog or a “page” set up in literally minutes! However, the most important thing to remember about putting yourself or your business out there on the World Wide Web is the IMAGE you are portraying to your clients and/or potential customers.
Why should they use your service or business? What do YOU have to offer that the “others” don’t? Now we can all agree that we want to put the best presentation out there to all our clients and customers. We get our picture professionally taken. We advertise in all the hotspots. We post on Facebook and blogs. We start up a website, or at least, we wish we could!
Most of us don’t have the time or knowledge to create and MAINTAIN a website that actually looks REALLY good. That is the whole point though. We want a website that looks GREAT and has the features that we need, but we want to just snap our fingers and have it done, and we don’t want it to cost an arm and a leg, right?
GREAT NEWS!
Now you CAN have a great looking, professional website with a custom look that won’t break the bank! My dear friend Heather McKelvey, who happens to be a BRILLIANT website developer, has just expanded her company TheDigiFix! Previously Heather worked with custom built websites, creating every little detail from the layout (no free templates downloads here!) to search engine optimization (that means people can Google you and they will FIND YOU!) Heather is now introducing a new division called Main Street Web Development!
Main Street is for those of us that fit the criteria I listed earlier! In fact, she is working on my website as we speak! Heather will give you the personal one on one time you deserve as a client, plus she puts it to you in PLAIN English, so you won’t feel overwhelmed and ummm…let’s say…technologically challenged!
So if YOU or ANYONE you know, is interested in starting up their own website, or just making the one they currently have BETTER, call Heather! She will totally hook you up! Make sure you tell her that I sent you so she knows how the word is getting spread!
Check out www.SitesOnMain.com or www.TheDigiFix.com !
Trust me, she is AMAZING! Plus she is one of the friendliest, talented, most adorable nerds you will ever meet!
