We Make ‘em You Bake ‘em Websites
OK Readers – You Asked For It – So Here It Is.
Self Service - OR – Full Service Websites – You Pick
We all know the Internet has turned traditional marketing on its ear – no longer is print advertising effective (newspapers are going broke – magazines are getting thinner and the Yellow Pages are doing nothing but filling up our landfills) – and of course there’s TIVO and the complete elimination of the TV commercial.
We also know that our customers are becoming surrounded by the Internet 24-7 – just as Bill Gates predicted several years ago. (200 million Smart Phones are forecasted to be sold in 2010 alone – access to your website 24-7).
Will you be found?
“We Make It You Bake It” Approach
We’ll do all the technical work setting up your website and then YOU Maintain it.
We promise to always give you all of the passwords and information AND always register everything in your name, so you can leave us at any time – no month to month contracts – we put our money where our mouth is.
AND – we’ll always be around for technical help if you get into a jam.
Plus - we’re going to design your website in one of the common website design programs (like Dreamweaver) or even open source programs like WordPress. This is good to know, because many website designers will design your website in proprietary programming code. Therefore, allowing them to hold you hostage. If you ever want to leave, you have to start over – it happens all the time, you would not believe the stories my readers are telling me – I am shocked.
With our programming, you can take it with you and just about anyone with website design skills can take it over.
(BTW – you would be surprised how many website designers will register your URL (www.yourbusinessname.com) in their own name – THEREFORE THEY OWN IT! We believe you should own your own name
and all of the passwords and user names.
This is a “sweat equity” approach - we’re going to make you work for it – Of course, we’ll always be here for technical and hand holding support on an as needed (reasonable hourly fee) basis – after we get you set up.
We’ll train you with easy written instructions for uploading YouTube videos, pictures and content (text) and the general maintenance of your website.
We’ll provide easy references (on this website) so you will never lose the “Step By Step” instructions for maintaining your website yourself.
Of course incorporating the easy Internet Marketing Tips in my book.
One little prerequisite:
YOU MUST READ MY BOOK & Make your notes at the end of each chapter.
Full Service Approach
So…You say you want more hand holding? – You want a respectable (fair priced) Internet Marketing firm to grow your business online for you – allowing you to focus on what you do best – running your business.
Or maybe, you run your business like Sam Walton did – surrounding yourself with folks that are more talented in particular areas than yourself (a real good idea BTW).
After all – You have a business to run, why not let the professionals take to you to the next level in Internet Marketing?
For full blown everyday ongoing maintenance and Internet Marketing we recommend:
Three Sixty Solutions www.threesixtysolutions.com
After all, that’s what I am dong in my other businesses – finding really good Internet marketing folks that can, not only, do it better me, but allow me the time to pursue what I do best – being an entrepreneur.
Good website designers (that are true Internet Marketers) are hard to find – that’s exactly why I have decided to grow my book business in this direction – my readers are coming to me with horror stories of unscrupulous and ill informed website designers. Let’s face it, my industry has a black eye.. why? Because there is no real “accredited”certification to become a website designer, no certification to become an SEO expert – Of course that means anyone can hang that shingle out there and say they do it.
There is a joke going around amongst my peers:
”Yesterday’s PR / Advertising Agency is today’s Website / SEO / Internet Marketing Expert” – Yeah Right.
Stay tuned. More to come……….
