I had the joy of creating the blog for Bruce Hall a personal development coach.  The goal of the project was to have a blog that matching the look and feel of his main website and provide a way for Bruce to share his vast expertise with his writing.  As you can tell, his articles are extremely thoughtful and worth reading.  The blog was built on a Wordpress platform to provide a strong foundation and robust platform from which to build and expand his blogging efforts.

I recently had the privilege of migrating Barbara K. Folts’ existing website to a Wordpress Platform for its content management capabilities.  The goal of the project was to make it easier for Barbara to update her site, integrate more with social media, and capitalize on email marketing and video.  To accomplish these objectives I added a few new elements to the site design, migrated the existing site content from a static website to Wordpress, incorporated her existing blog content to the new site, added her videos to the new site, and implemented Aweber for email marketing.  The result is a clean, professional site built on a strong foundation on which to build future content and marketing efforts.

Here’s what Barbara had to say about working with me:

Finding someone to help you with setting up a web site is possible, but finding someone with whom you can really communicate your needs is the real challenge.  Paula not only has the skills to accomplish the task, she also is able to discuss the options in language that the lay person can understand.  In addition to these qualities, I was pleased that she responded promptly to my concerns.  As well as dealing with my most immediate goal of the web site, Paula is adept at creating additional social media.  She is a person with many talents.  – Barbara K.

Blog with different sidebar elements:

Lennons Small Jobs is a locally owned handyperson company.  Their need was for a basic website that has a professional look and feel.   The previous website was not an optimal reflection of Mary Lennon, the owner’s high quality service and dependability.  A redesign using similar colors to existing branding was done and the end result allows her to showcase more of what makes her uniquely qualified to help you with small jobs around the home.

Here’s what Mary had to say about her experience working with me:

“Thanks so much! I love the new look. I sent it to some of my friends for testing and got rave reviews back from them. The whole experience was great;  it was smooth, no stress and easy. I will recommend you highly to anyone wanting to create or revise their web site. Thanks again.”  ~Mary Lennon, Lennon’s Small Jobs

Here’s a quick glance of the new site…you can visit her at www.LennonsSmallJobs.com and by all means if you have something needing fixing, give her a ring!

I had the privilege of helping Julie Cohen launch her new website 7 Keys to Work Life Balance to support the launch of her book and workbook.  I partnered with Jack Out of the Box Designs to update the design she had originally created to support the new look for the book and blog.  For this site I used Wordpress utilizing its content management capabilities for the main website and its powerful blog engine for the blog.  The site incorporates eCommerce shopping cart to sell products and autoresponder/newsletter technology for Internet Marketing.

Here’s what Julie had to say about her experience:

“Paula just finished my new website. She was fantastic to work with – knows her stuff, does what she says, keeps me up to date on everything and is fun to work with! As soon as I launch this site, she’ll be revamping my other site. Thank you Paula – it’s awesome to work with someone who really understands customer service!!”
- Julie Cohen, author “7 Keys to Work Life Balance”

The blog which is just getting populated:

The New York Human Planning Society (NYHRPS) is a professional organization for high level human resource professionals. They had a need for a content managed site that would allow them to update and maintain an events calendar, provide areas for member-only content, and integrate with a shopping cart for online payment.  The site was built on the CMS Made Simple content management platform and included programming customizations for which I partnered with Immersion IT.  A second phase of site development included a member database and online administration.

In addition to their main site, NYHRPS wanted a blog to continue the conversation and resources from member events.  I created a blog for them on the Wordpress platform.

Once again I had the pleasure of partnering with Passion for Business to serve their client’s need for a blog.  Val Heart is an Animal Communicator and needed a blog that could showcase her expertise, work, and success stories while also matching the design of her main website.  I created a blog for her on a Wordpress platform that included integration with social media and her newsletter/autoresponders.  You can visit her blog live on the web at : www.valheart.com/blog
