My Idea For A Service To Warriors.
The rough idea is to set up a "one-stop shop" website where Internet Marketers (newbies and experienced) can order products such as excellent original quality articles on a variety of subjects, as well as services including Wordpress installation/theme creation, article submission, graphics (headers, logos, business card & flyer design etc), link building and other SEO work, plus whatever else may be in demand. One of my businesses is t-shirt printing, so this would be on offer, as well as a range of other "offline promotion" resources. Imagine a site where you can order a couple of coffee mugs & t-shirts printed with your website logo, as well as a logo, some business cards and a link building campaign all in one transaction. An iconic, reputable well-branded website where you know you can always go to get these types of things. Selling perhaps "gimmicky" items like coffee mugs and t-shirts could be a nice little earner alongside the more serious business stuff!
There are lots of people out there who provide these services individually, however I want to offer the benefit of making a wide range of useful services available all from the same office here in the UK, servicing clients worldwide. The whole business would be operated entirely by UK native English speaking staff, all capable of writing good quality articles and producing and overall excellent quality of work for the prices I am considering charging.
Reputation will be paramount to the success of the business of course, so I'll need to take into account factors such as the quality of the work produced (obviously) but also be careful not to get over-booked, so reasonable lead times can be maintained. Efficiency will be key.
So, my questions to readers of this post are:
1. What services would you like to see at this site, if the project does go ahead?
2. Are you aware of any similar sites already in existence? What do you like/dislike about what's on offer?
3. Any tips/pointers? Do you think this idea has "legs" or am I dreaming again?
