From Me to You
WP Design Lab is an online training and coaching program designed with you in mind.
Because I was you and I’ve been there —
Why Learn WordPress
Over 15 years ago I was leading marketing efforts for a start-up that was building an awesome SaaS (software as a service) reservation system. You’d think I would have had plenty of technical resources – not so much.
So there I was working in a start-up that’s business was web-based and I barely had a working website to market the business. When I needed to make changes I had to send in a ticket, get in the queue and wait, and wait, and wait…
It was so frustrating, competitors were moving faster and I had to find a way to get control over the marketing website(s). I needed to be able to react quickly. To test ideas. Try new things. Fix a misspelled word at 2 AM.
Learn WordPress Even if You Aren’t Techie
Learning to code a website was definitely out of the question. I didn’t have the time and besides, whenever I used the little bit of HTML knowledge I had I thought my head would explode.
There were lots of really expensive CMS (Content Management Systems) out there but all our resources were being poured into our product, so I found a couple of free, open-source CMS – Joomla and WordPress – and set out to teach myself how to use them and effectively build marketing and consumer websites.
At the time I was definitely the least techie person in the company – my background was in creating extraordinary brands – certainly not building websites. When I set out to do this it was referred to as my “Star Wars” project. No one believed I was going to be able to build those sites, and if I did manage to cobble something together it was sure to be crude, ugly and of very little use…
Learning WordPress Will Make You Feel Like a Rockstar Marketer
A couple of frustrating months later I had multiple awesome marketing websites, that looked better than my competitors and worked. It was like the heavens had opened up, the clouds parted, the sun streamed in and angels were singing. Ok, that might be a bit dramatic but it’s pretty close to how I felt.
No more waiting, no more missed opportunities. I could add marketing programs and make adjustments and fix that misspelled word whenever I wanted.
Sales skyrocketed and I was hooked.
Now teaching you how to confidently design, build and manage your website is a big part of my mission. I’ve spent the last 15 years helping others just like you and it would be my great honor to teach you.
Be Extraordinary, You Got This!
