Website Design

Web Sites & Content

The Internet is mass communication today. Whether your organization is profit or non-profit, you need a Web face. And, it has to present you well. Visitors don’t spend more than a few seconds on a site when they search. They’re looking for information; if they don’t find it, they’re gone. I create Web sites that comply with best practices for SEO and marketing.

Feature1

One Project—One Price

Nothing ruins a project like a cost overrun. With a fixed-fee contract, you’ll know how much it will cost you. It’s a win-win situation.

Feature2

No Double-Talk

Life and profit margins are too short. Your communications must deliver value. I deliver on my commitments and add value to your products.

Feature 3

No Surprises

I deliver what I promise. I meet your deadlines. I charge only what we—your company and I—have agreed will be charged.

Do you need a technical writer? A person who will work hard, produce outstanding results, and who has little need for compensation? You’re a business manager; you read the ads for professionals and you see strange ad copy all the time.

A very interesting job ad...

What this ad says is that a company wants a highly-skilled professional who’s not comfortable with receiving money for her or his work.

Who Might Answer This Ad?

Watcher of Clocks
The company hopes it will find the right candidate. The problem is, of course, that the ad states the need for two separate candidates: a junior writer and an experienced professional. However…

Not many of us come to work just to watch the clock. But, you pay for the hours we work, don't you? We work for pay, just as you do. We—technical communicators—don’t have your budgetary concerns. If you want us in a cubicle so that you know we’re working, that's where we’ll be.

Instead of Off-Shore, think of Off-Site! Remote work can work for you!

Thinking of Leaving the Box?

Documentation Despair
There’s a better way. Think about the communication product you need, how you need it, and when you need it. Maybe your product can best be provided by an off-site asset.

Think about the skills and tools a professional—such as me—offers you and your company. Today’s technology lets you seriously consider using off-site assets for virtual meetings, time reporting & tracking, and product deliveries.

Think of a Real One-Stop Shop

Instead of Off-Shore, think of Off-Site! Remote work can work for you!

One Price, One Project—That’s what I bring to you. I use my software to build your product for you. I’m not on the clock in this situation. Sure, I estimate the time I’ll need to do the work for you and build that into my proposal. That’s no secret. The thing is, my price won’t change unless you add things to the contract that affect my costs. So, you know what you’re going to get and how much it'll cost you before I start work.

No surprises.
