We LIKE creating websites and marketing materials, editing content (including whole books),… we LIKE giving good value for money spent… we LIKE our clients to look great on AND off line. Three really great reasons to consider hiring us! Here are some others:

“I appreciate your ability to suggest things and think both inside, outside, and on top of the box.” Ben Dean, PhD Founder & President, MentorCoach, LLC www.MentorCoach.com (Ben is no longer a client, but we really enjoyed helping MentorCoach grow while he was!)
“I looked for over ten years to find a webmaster like Kera. She has been a blessing to our business and I recommend her wholeheartedly. Not only is she a great designer, she is a businesswoman who readily grasps what you want to do. She is extremely responsive and professional” – Allan Boress, author, www.allanboress.com (note, Allan has since moved on, so his new website is not our work, but we still appreciate what he had to say about us.)
Our Services…
It can be a treacherous road from offline to online business. There are snakeoil vendors and gurus at every turn.
We see our job as part navigator, part commander, part scout and part packhorse.
Here’s what we can do for you:
- New websites – we work primarily with WordPress using Elementor Pro (drag & drop visual page builder) – We can build custom websites fairly quickly this way. WordPress allows YOU to have a lot of control over your content without having to fuss with the technical side of things. Once we’ve got you all set up, you can add pages, images, videos, notes, downloads, etc anytime you want, without our help.
- Facelifts – if your content is pretty good, and working for you (getting you business) but you think you’re looking a little dated or uncool (and remember, you look at your site all the time, most people who visit you do NOT, so they won’t see it the same way you do) we can convert your old site to a new site – either by implementing wordpress and updating your design, or just updating the design.
- Overhauls – if you’re happy with how it LOOKS but it’s not achieving the results you’d hoped for, we can go thru page by page and improve the copy, update/upgrade your search engine optimization, tidy up the formatting, reorganize so it works better.
On AND offline marketing.
Yes, yes, the web may be all the rage, but chances are good you’re going to have to meet someone in the flesh and tell them about your business, or give them something to remind them of you. Print isn’t dead yet – and if it’s done in a conscious, sustainable way, it can even make you look GOOD!
- business cards, brochures, rack cards – all those things that put you in front of people who don’t have a computer handy
- media kits (particularly downloadable ones, so they’re only getting printed when absolutely necessary, but look GREAT when the time comes)
- ebooks (Kindle & PDF), books, booklets
- landing pages, online offers, contact list collection, data management
- eNewsletters, print newsletters, reports, white papers, portfolios
- facebook ads, google ads, amazon ads, print ads
- Youtube optimization
- audio & video editing
- social media content creation & scheduling
This is a particular area of enjoyment… editing is FUN! It’s not fast, but it’s definitely fun. We edit non-fiction and short fiction currently. From Stylistic to Copy/Line editing, we’re here to help you get the best book possible.
We all have those jobs we just do NOT wanna do… data entry, data mining, research, mail merging, contact followup, newsletter building, etc. Believe it or not, we kinda like doing that stuff, and we have reliable, detail-oriented contractors who will handle it for you.
We’ve invented, managed, coordinated, organized, worked at, and volunteered at LOTS of events. We know what it takes to organize even a simple workshop via zoom. Often a lot more than you expect! It can feel overwhelming.
We can help with: Online Registration forms that automatically create spreadsheets or databases, website imports & builds (eg. speaker directory, event schedule etc), floor plans, participant communications, collateral design (programmes, signage, delegate materials), social media graphics… all the things.
