Pow! Pow! Pow! Shazzam!

Peoples,

One of the things I often feel called to do is to share my experiences and wisdom with others – it just gets trapped in my brain otherwise – and so I have made:

Pow! Pow! Pow! Shazzam!

a conversational, Sarah-style PDF about the hows and whys of setting up your first business website (particularly businesses based on expertise sharing eg coaching, consulting). The content will also help those of you wanting to start a not-for-profit or online community – based platform. Read it here!

I cover:

  • Which content is necessary for your fledgling website – and whether to include a community forum
  • The importance of ‘free stuff’
  • Copywriting and SEO
  • The breadth of content you can use (written content, interviews, videos, links etc)
  • Newsletters
  • Building a mailing list
  • Social networking
  • Project campaigns
  • Promotional strategy and interacting with other websites

Pretty flippin thorough, huh?!

This content is for anyone who wants to build up a web presence, wants to take their blog to the next level, and especially for those who want to offer a service (such as coaching or consulting) and use the web to build their brand.

The skinny on me

I’m a freelance web content editor, and have worked with career coach websites for over a year. I have also contributed to start-up coaching businesses where I learnt a lot about marketing, business strategy and trialling services.

The cool thing about this is that I explain the whys

I am offering this ‘guide’ in the hope that it will make the process of setting up a web-based service/expertise business achievable, clear, and simple. There is no technical jargon involved (I explain what SEO means!) and I explain why businesses do the things they do – why it is important to have free content, why businesses use social networking besides promoting their products. It can be tempting to try and copy other businesses, but if you don’t know why they do what they do, then your strategy isn’t really going to work. I’m hoping that this will empower you to make informed choices about how your web presence will take shape. Once you understand how the main elements of an online-based service business works, you will be able to confidently try out new strategies to take things further.

I hope you enjoy it, and come away feeling confident that you can do this easily. My biggest hope is that after you’ve read it, you begin setting up your internet empire!

Much love,

Sarah

      Hi Cassie –
      I’ve tried all 3 links and they work, maybe try accessing it during non-peak internet use times, if the server is superbusy it could intefere with the download making it slow.
      Hope it works for you!
