...Attention Entrepreneurs, Small Business Owners, and Virtual Assistants...
"Do You Know One of the Fastest Ways to Lose a Website Visitor?
By Having
a Design-Challenged,
Graphics-Starved Website
That
Looks Completely Unprofessional!"
Dear Friend,
If YOUR website (or blog) images and graphics make your site look like a patchwork quilt or an explosion in a paint factory, listen up! I have a few things to share with you...
You don't have to live with an ugly website or blog that:
Has a bunch of clashing colors, uncoordinated buttons, and lame graphics;
Has been cobbled together by different designers over the years, leaving you with a site that looks like a Picasso;
Is using a generic template that 5,000 other businesses are using!
I'm not talking about blinging up your site for the sake of bling! I'm talking about easily creating a sleek, attractive, traffic-magnet! Please allow me to explain...
The difference between a website or blog that looks amazing and one that is just average is professional-looking graphics, photos, and color schemes!
Those elegant sites look like they cost a fortune though, don't they? As an Entrepreneur, Small Business Owner, or Virtual Assistant, you might not have a bazillion bucks to drop on a graphic designer, so you probably "make due" with either simple graphics or no graphics at all. Am I right?
What is the Key to
Professional-Looking Websites and Blogs?
Logos, graphics, buttons, images, and fonts are the building blocks of an overall graphics "strategy." It's true, there are some parts of this strategy that you want to leave to a professional graphic designer, but it's far, far less than you think!
Armed with a little knowledge, some elbow grease, and a good image editor, you CAN
handle your own images, produce satisfying graphics, coordinate
your colors, and make your websites and blogs YOUR OWN. And
it DOES NOT have to cost next month's food budget to do it. Give
me a little of your time, and I'll show you how.
Finally There's a Solution!
The key isn't just the graphics and colors, it's knowing how
to put them together in a consistent and pleasing
design.
There are some simple principles you can follow which I teach you in my Online
Marketer’s Guide to Web-Savvy Graphics training CD.
Start with your logo. We look at what makes a logo
work both from a business and a design perspective. I show you
services where you can have a logo created for far less cash than
you'd expect.
Follow the color scheme in your logo. This is where most online marketers lose their way. They've got a color scheme right in front of them, but they don't know how to find out the "color numbers" and use them in their web pages. There's a free tool you can use to reveal those numbers and make your colors MATCH, so your site looks delightful rather than disastrous.
Keep it simple. Professional-looking sites don't
have to be elaborate, but they do need to be tidy and fast-loading.
I teach you the tricks that will keep the size of your graphic files
small while still being eye-catching and appealing.
Once you understand graphic formats and
you have a handle on your color scheme, the only thing left is
to find a graphics editor that you like. On this CD, I
show you 4 different possibilities, including
2 that are free! In no time, you'll be whipping your websites and blogs into shape.
They're going to LOOK professional, and your visitors will hang
around longer and spend more money because they TRUST YOU!
Rosie Horner on Toolie's Webinars:
"[Toolie], I can tell you from personal experience [that] what you provide is so valuable. And it's valuable because you make things clear. It's simple, and as a Baby Boomer, I appreciate that. And I feel so empowered after every seminar I have with you!"
Who Am I to Tell YOU Anything
about the Cosmetics of Your Website?
My name is Jocelyn "Toolie" Garner (please call me Toolie®), and I teach motivated entrepreneurs, small business owners, and virtual assistants how to get more done in less time by learning strategic computer skills that make them money. I've been in the computer business for more than 25 years, and I've been an entrepreneur for the last 5 years. I have taught adults ages 19 to 91 how to use computers and software, so I know how to explain technical details in plain language.
I wasn't born a techie. I started out in life as a professional musician: you know, the quintessential starving artist? I got involved with computers in college, and those skills paid for a lot of expensive music lessons. What I learned from those "day jobs" is that I needed to stay open to learning things other than music that could keep my musical career going.
Those same "learn it and get it done" skills help me now as an entrepreneur, and I want that same level of confidence for you. I want YOU to be empowered to take care of yourself andtake care of your websites and blogs -- possibly the most valuable and potentially lucrative business assets you have.
"Even though as a copywriter and Internet marketer, I make a living using my computer, I'm technically challenged. Whenever I mention minor irritants like my computer running super-slow or how to find files, Toolie is able to troubleshoot with me on the phone using layman's language that's easy-to-understand. I actually get excited to learn from her because I'm so much more productive. Toolie Garner is a godsend."

"Wait a Minute! Are You Saying I Could Save Money on Logos, Image, and Graphics and
STILL Have a Great-Looking Website (or Blog)?"
That's exactly what I'm saying! It's NOT how much money you spend on your images, logos, and graphics, it's how they're produced, matched, and placed in your websites and blogs. And with the great information you're going to get in this webinar and a little practice, you can produce search engine-friendly, smart, attractive websites and blogs that keep your customers coming back for more.
When the appearance of your websites and blogs doesn't get in the way of the message, your visitors can focus on your products and services. They'll see that you cared enough to make your site attractive and accessible, and your visitors will be more likely to trust you enough to buy.
Just The Really Useful Stuff™!
That's my technology motto! When it comes to learning computer stuff in general, that's all an entrepeneur, small business owner, or VA has time for! What I teach you is valuable, but I cut to the chase and focus on what really works.
Before I created this CD, I asked YOU what YOU wanted and needed to know. I
