What would it be like to work with a web designer who is passionate about your web site? Starting an Internet business is exciting. You already know this. That's why you decided to enter this new business arena. When you first thought about starting your online business, did you consider the financial freedom it could bring you or dream of working from home or imagine sharing your unique products with the entire world? Whatever your reasons, you have already put a lot of thought into it and have a vision of what you truly want. I can help translate your vision into reality. I am passionate about helping my clients create online stores; that's my area of specialization. I believe that ecommerce is the economy of the future. I enjoy getting to know each one of my clients, who they are and what their dreams are. Every site that I design is created from scratch only after I have been inspired by my client's vision. I don't work with any premade templates. I take pride in customizing each web site to my client's exact specifications and preparing it for maximum success. And once the site is up and running, I will continue to be available to answer questions or help you with updates. Finally, you have found a web designer who is as passionate about working with her clients as you are passionate about your business!   First Impressions Impact Sales Your web site design will make an immediate first impression on your customers. Therefore, you must make it the best possible reflection of what your business is all about. Pride in your business shows up in the quality of the web site design. You will want to demonstrate to your customers that you were thinking of them when you designed your site and that you have put preparation into awaiting their visit. Your customers are going to make instantaneous judgements about your business the moment they visit your home page for the first time. You will want them to be interested enough to navigate past the home page and into your department and product pages. You will want to give them a web site that is easy to navigate and to find the product(s) they are looking for. In this way, you will be taking care of them. If you've ever watched a tv show where they transform an ordinary room into a gorgeous designer room, you have seen an Interior Decorator at work. S/he is the person who puts everything together. S/he gets to know what the home owner desires, develops the detailed plan for what the room will look like, and works with various specialists such as painters, furniture suppliers, carpenters etc. to carry out the plan. An Interior Decorator knows what makes a room look great, how to place furniture and art in a room, and takes into consideration the flow of traffic in a room. S/he oversees the tiniest of details and is responsible for the room coming together perfectly. That is exactly what I do but instead of a physical room, I am the interior decorator of web stores. I will work with you to get to know what your needs are, develop a plan of action to create the web site design, and then work with both a graphic artist and an html programmer to bring it all together for you. I know what makes a web site look great. I know where elements of a web site should be placed in relation to each other and how the search engines will index your site pages. I consider how your customer will navigate through the pages of your web site. I will create the best design for your web site and then oversee the implementation of that design until it is exactly what you want. In short, I coordinate ALL of the details of designing and implementing a web store design for you. How much does it all cost? My philosophy is that you are hiring me for my talent to create the web site that you really want. For that reason, I will rework the details of web site design until it exactly what you want. I place no limits on the number of revisions that we go through and I place no time contraints on getting the job done right. I offer a flat fee for the entire project so that you will know exactly what the costs are upfront. Unlike other web design companies, I do not charge by the hour or charge extra for revisions. I ask for a 50% downpayment of $1200 to begin the project and a final payment of $1200 at the completion of the project. Is your online business worth this initial investment? For my flat fee of $2400, you will get the following: I will take the time needed to get to know your business. I will take care of any web site requests that you have. If you need a logo, I will have one created for you. If you want a special function at your web site, I will either implement it for you or I will research your options for you. I will rework the web design until you are excited about the design and ready to implement it. You are guaranteed to get the web design that you really want or you don't pay me the final payment. I will revise the site design until it is exactly what you want. There are no limits to the number of revisions. I will work at your pace. YOU DECIDE when the site design is finalized and it is time to implement into your web host. The typical web design project takes 30 days. If you want to finish it within a week, I will work at that expediated pace. If you need to take your time over several months, I will work with you at that slower pace. I will oversee the implementation of your new design into the store hosting of your choice. Once we get started on the design, you will find little changes here and there that start to add up. Other web design service companies will charge for each little revision. I won't. My flat fee covers everything from the conception of the design to the implementation at your store host. I will not raise my fee during the project. There will be no unexpected fees or add-on fees for revisions. You will appreciate the personal attention that I will give to your needs. You can come to me with any idea or problem and I will try to solve it. If I can't, I will research it for you and then come back with a list of options for your consideration. I am an excellent problem-solver. You will experience working with a web designer who is passionate about providing the best solutions for her clients and who loves to customize each web site for its maximum success. I may charge more than other web designers but this is because I am very talented at what I do, and I work whole-heartedly on each and every project to complete it to perfection.   To Get Started My ultimate goal with every new client is to develop a long-term relationship. For that reason, I am selective about which projects I accept. I ask every serious, prospective client to reserve an appointment for us to talk by phone. If my services are a match with your project goals, then we will make a plan of action by the end of the phone call and I will apply the $10 deposit as a partial payment of the downpayment. Otherwise, I will refund the deposit in full. Upon receipt of your reservation, I will contact you by email to set up a time for us to talk by phone. I find that an initial phone call of about one hour duration is ideal to get us started. During this time, I will listen to what you are wanting to accomplish and we will brainstorm together on this. I will also take you step-by-step through the major considerations in setting up an ecommerce business and answer any questions you may have. I look forward to talking with you!   Your name: Your email address:
