The "About" page on a website is often the most-read section. Make sure yours has a compelling narrative that combines professional achievements with personal details to draw in your audience. Start with a strong, engaging opening that captures attention and sets the tone for the rest of the content. Highlight your mission and values to align with your audience's needs and interests. Include a brief history or background that establishes credibility, emphasizing unique experiences and achievements. Personal elements, such as your passions and interests, help humanize your brand and make you more relatable. Lastly, provide a clear call to action that guides visitors on how to connect with you or learn more about your offerings. Tune in for tips on crafting a strong narrative that resonates with your audience and establishes credibility. By blending professionalism with personal touches, your About Page can effectively engage and convert visitors. Quotes “Did you know the most read page on every website is the About page?” “There's two types of About pages, right? There's the one that's the personal bio About page, and then there's the About page about your company page.” “What should go on that page is - I almost call it a narrative resume with interesting points.” “You also want to add in some personal things, because the personal things are the things that people relate to. They're the things people connect with, and are the the information that people remember.” “We're trying to grab the attention of our ideal customer.” “Break up large sections of text into smaller sections with headlines” “Most people are not going to read every word, they can really grasped the important things about you just from those headings, just from those sub heads.” “Break content up with bullet points where you can” “Don't just assume that if you mentioned certain things that you did, that potential clients or clients are going to understand how that ties into the work that you do today. You actually want to do that work for someone and say, ‘As a former journalist, I'm able to write copy that really helps you jump out and stand out online.'”

Lilongwe, Malawi in Southeastern Africa is indeed a long, long way away and we are happy to travel over the Zoom waves to visit with artist, designer, educator and mentor, Kristen Palana. Valerie met Kristen virtually a few months ago as a student in Kristen's Web Presence and Social Media Marketing class through Mastrius.com. Through Mastius, Kristen, Armin and Val are now colleague mentors with many other artists across the globe. It's a great opportunity to bring collective art knowledge to our podcast. Kristen's artist statement is rich with optimism and positivity contrasted with bringing awareness to the reality of our planet. “I draw the world not as it is but how I wish it could be. Inspired by the lofty mission statements and development goals used by the world's top organizations, my images can be used to imagine better outcomes for our lives, communities, and the planet. I'm currently developing a body of drawings that move beyond making creative visualizations at the individual level to expand to include the larger global community. I use symbols, icons, and patterns with cross-cultural significance combined with color psychology to help soothe, heal, and reinvigorate weary idealists. My backgrounds are not always content to remain quietly in the background. Through highly charged color choices, energetic lines, and regional and global textile patterns commonly made by and for women, these backgrounds sometimes ask nicely and other times demand with exasperation to be seen, heard, accepted, and appreciated.” - Kristen Palana You will hear Kristen describe how this is a "move year" for their family. It is the year where they find out the next adventurous location they will live and make home. That process can be daunting and exhilarating but always unpredictable. She and her husband are providing a lifestyle for their sons that will send them into adult life well prepared to adapt and excel. Very exciting times ahead for Kristen! We wish her all the very best. Here are show notes to learn even more about Kristen Palana and her art and life.

When was the last time you updated your website? Despite the popularity and traction of social media sites, having a stand-alone website to promote your work and build your brand is key to connecting with your given audience. In this week's podcast, we explore the dynamics of building and maintaining a professional caliber website with insights from both sides of the coin.  We start by chatting with website designer Alex Vita, who shares pet peeves as well as the best practices he's honed over more than 13 years of work with photo industry clients. All will benefit from Alex's insights on building a client-focused website as a way to build trust. After a break we get the artist's perspective from the illustrious photographer, environmental activist, and creative whirlwind Benjamin Von Wong, who also happens to be one of Alex's clients. Listen in as Ben and Alex discuss his web strategy and take a deep dive into the challenges of staying relevant and getting noticed in an oversaturated creative climate. We also dip into thoughts about how the evolution of AI is likely to change the future of the visual world, to make photographs the starting point for a conversation rather than its final purpose.

When foot traffic stopped in March 2020, Small and Medium Businesses had to become digital. Even though before March 2020, most local businesses had a presence on the web, and they knew that presence was necessary, they recognized that having a poor presence was almost like having no presence at all. But then the pandemic came, and SMBs finally understood their web presence was critical and that they needed to focus on the customer experience and engagement online. With the lockdown in place, it was the only way they could engage with their customers during the lockdown. But what happened to SMB's online presence after the pandemic propelled them into the future? How do they look now? Are they and continuing to improve as things return to normal? SIINDA, The Search and Information Industry Association of Europe, along with Duda, one of the top leading professional website builders and Insites, a top web intelligence company, decided to conduct a study. They took a look at thousands of SMB's across Europe to see how their web presence has changed since the pandemic. In this episode, they talk about what they found.

After the first couple lessons you know how to get your first clients. And once you have a client the question becomes how to expand, develop, and move your business forward. One of the first things I want to touch on is the importance of getting into a weekly schedule with your clients. You should be meeting each client at consistent times each week. Generally, as a tutor, you're going to be busy in the afternoon after school, and in the evening. Middle school and high school kids get out of school, come home, unwind, maybe have sports practice, and are ready for tutoring around four or five pm. It can be hectic as a tutor if your schedule is always changing every week. That can make it difficult to build consistency in your life. I encourage people to establish a set time for meeting with each client. You might work with Johnny every Tuesday at six, for instance. So then for the next person who wants to book a time, you can say, “Hey, I have a slot open at 7:30 on Tuesday evening. I could fit you in there. Would that work?” This way your schedule will fill up. It's much better than having to email your clients and find different times every time they need help with something. This brings consistency to your life and helps you grow your business. Another thing to look at once you have a couple steady clients going is developing a web presence. That can be making a website or doing some social media. It's easy to set up a website today on Weebly, Wix, or Squarespace. You can do some research into those. I think Wix is on the cheaper end. Squarespace might be a bit more expensive, look more sleek, and have a few more bells and whistles. Spend a few days setting up your website and get some writing on there. Write about your philosophy and what sets you apart as a tutor. Why should they hire you? It's important to not just write about math, but also about how you teach math. What is your teaching philosophy? Maybe you cater to the whole person. Maybe you think it's important to spend time talking to people about how their day was. Even small things can help set you apart and make you likeable. You want a parent to read this and say, “Oh, yeah, this is someone who I'd like to hire, bring into my home, and introduce to my child.” So set that philosophy up. If you get a decent website it could start to rank on Google and people might start finding you organically. During the early stages of establishing your tutoring business, you'll have to go out and do some work. You set the fliers up, do outreach, make profiles, and build the website. But eventually people start coming into your business through referrals and your website, and you can get a good business going. It's probably prudent to get a Twitter going, a Facebook page, and maybe an Instagram. Think about who's going to be hiring you; it's probably going to be moms. Personally, 99% of the people contacting me in my tutoring businesses are moms. Sometimes it's the dad but that's rare. Think about where moms hang out online. Where can you find them? Well, there are a lot on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. So you can try to find your niche and your audience by posting helpful content. Maybe make a video about your tutoring philosophy!If you have a client who really loves you, have them record a short video about how much they've loved your service, and post (if that's ok with them, of course). Pin that on top of your Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter pages. Link those all to your website. Make it easy to book a consultation on your website. So if someone comes across your Facebook page, they could end up seeing the video, going to your website, and signing up. You want to build out a presence and some credibility. Once you do, people are going to see you as an expert and perceive you as more credible. Maybe you'll be able to charge a higher rate. Because now you are not just some guy. You have legitimacy. You have a Facebook and Instagram and you're writing helpful things there. People are making videos about how great you are. And parents see that and think, Wow, this person knows their stuff! They're writing about algebra and geometry, exactly what my daughter needs help with right now. And they're writing about employing educational strategies. This is someone worth hiring. Another great approach to grow your tutoring business is to get on some lists. Local community centers and neighborhood organizations will often have lists to help parents who are looking for tutors. Sometimes schools will even have these lists. So you can contact some local schools and say, “Hey, is there a tutoring list? If there is, can I put my name on there?” A lot of times, you'll have to write down what subjects you do, whether you do in-home, and how your charging works. Then you can start to get inbound leads that way from people wanting your service. Parents are inquiring at the school about where to find a tutor and the school refers them to this list. So it's a great referral. Reaching out and connecting with schools and making some partnerships is always a great idea. That can be through the front office to get on the tutoring list, as we just saw, or it can be with the counselors. Parents will often bring up with their counselor that their child is not doing well in school. If you have some connections there, and you've done the hard work of building relationships, you can get some leads coming in that way too, and your schedule will start filling up. Once your schedule fills up to 90% capacity, you can aise those rates again, depending on the city you're in. You can also think about charging a bit more if you're doing in-home sessions and offering a discount for online tutoring. Some people might want online and that's not a bad gig. You can book sessions back-to-back and you could even be doing it from Hawaii. You could be sitting on the beach doing tutoring sessions and make money that way. So think about whether you want to offer online, and how you want the pricing to work. One of the big keys is just getting your clients on a steady schedule, where they're coming back each week at a certain time. This way you'll have more predictable revenue and can retain clients more easily over longer timelines. Those are the main ideas on how to grow your business after getting your first clients. By now you have the tools to get a legitimate business going. Let's continue with the next topic.

Business Personality Disorder (BPD) is characterized by at least two distinct identities or dissociated personality states that show up in a company's behavior.BPD emerges when unrelated teams work independently in the areas of (1.) Advertising (2.) Web Presence (3.) Sales Training. If a person encounters your ads, then visits your website, then comes to your place of business, will they feel they have encountered a single personality three times, or three personalities once? Advertising rarely makes the sale. It merely engages the customer in the early stages of a conversation. If the reader/listener/viewer of your ad has purchased from you in the past and had a good experience, it's possible the ad will cause him or her to make immediate contact with your business. But customers who are less familiar with you will hope to extend the conversation and learn more about you by visiting your website. And they will expect to encounter the same personality they met in your ads. Will that happen?Or will they encounter an entirely different personality crafted by your website team? Does your website continue the conversation begun by your advertising, or does it stand alone, as though that conversation never took place? To what degree is your website disconnected from your advertising? That will be the degree of disconnection experienced by your customer. If by some miracle, the personality, tone and style of your website agrees with the personality, tone and style of your advertising, your biggest problem remains. Will your people continue the conversation that was begun in your ads and continued on your website? Or will they introduce an entirely different company than the one your customer was hoping to meet? Relational Marketing depends on Integrated Messaging.Integrated Messaging begins withWe Believe(Statements that capture the Personality and Promises, Processes and Benefits of your company.) Personality makes the customer feel they know you. Promises make the customer feel secure. Processes give credibility to your Promises. Benefits are what the customer is hoping to experience.
