Hello Warriors,

First of all, I would like to thank RedShifted, John Durham, Henry Argueta, payoman, Jason Kanigan, and the regular contributors to the offline marketing section. Over the last month I have learned so much useful information from your amazing posts! I really appreciate the time you guys take to help us beginners.

Okay, today I finally finished my website. Let me know what you guys think!

I've landed a few meetings for next week, and I'm pretty excited. I get my leads from cold calling, and word of mouth. Although I don't like cold calling, I'm getting better at it. A big thanks to Jason for this! Best cold calling advice I've found anywhere.

Let's get this business rolling baby!

    Website looks pretty good at first glance. Good job. Increase the size of your call to action buttons..they're a bit small and don't demand attention as they should.

    Very nice site!! Good luck in your business. A lot of my initial clients came from the church that I attend. Once people discover what you can do, word will spread.

      I've noticed already. I really enjoy talking about what I do when it's casual, and it has been working really well for me. I started this month, and 4 business owners have contacted ME from my family and friends.

    Nice job for a just finished website. You've got a good looking site with the basics there and a nice portfolio, but personally I can't stand "About Us" pages that don't really tell me anything about the people I might consider doing business with.

    Using your full name with a photo and a mailing address will make you stand out from a the sea of web designers who like to keep themselves a mystery for some reason. People do business with those they know, like and trust and that starts with being upfront with who you are.

    Also remember that people buy the benefits of what you can do for them. There are a million and one great web designers out there, but if you can show them how your web design will help them get more business because you also know a thing or two about marketing or copywriting, that'll help set yourself apart too and help you find some good clients.

    Overall though, very nicely done!

    I love this website. Great job!

    "unlimited revisions" Would have a system in place to keep track of time spent on revisions. Some clients will abuse your generosity and that time will eat into your profit.

    Speaking from experience.

    Looks like you've got a decent site here! Just some first impressions:

    1. I see your phone number. That's great. When you show your phone number, people know you are real and can interact with you on a personal level.

    2. A guarantee to reduce/remove risk - delightful.

    3. Testimonials and portfolio for authenticity - splendid.

    4. The website is very clear and easy to navigate.

    5. Social buttons (at the bottom of the page) do not work.

    All in all, this site will achieve its purpose. You've done a good job... I wish you success!

    I love the website especially the color scheme. The social buttons should work though.

    The site look very nice. Yes, it will be good to activate the social buttons, but still you have a good start with this one. Good luck.

    Thanks for the positive and helpful feedback! I'll see what I can do with those social icons sometime today.

    Unfortunately I woke up with a cold this morning... I have a nasty cough, and I don't want that happening multiple times in a 3 minute conversation.

    No cold calls today because I have a cold, that I got yesterday, probably from cold calling. lol not really
