Not sure whether its worth the time away from the office?

Here’s feedback from business owners who some of our previous workshops:

Jefrina from Wicked Pantry: “Today’s session showed the processes included in planning a website. It made me think about what goes into a website – business focus (what you want to achieve), processes, tolls, marketing strategy, technology. It takes more than 15 minutes!”

Dave from Acid Plant Management Services: “Now understand the importance of having a website that works and improves rather than having a great design that does nothing. Good explanation of why business focus and objectives are a priority for websites and then how to maximise the website return.”

Adrian from Red Ochre Consulting: “Understand how the website + email marketing + analtics + blog + the cloud fit together. And the interrelationship between them all. Illuminating. Great.”
