My Design & Development Skills
Here are some of the keys skills that enable me to create great websites for my clients
Visual &
Communication
Design
Communicating effectively and powerfully is the heart of this design discipline. Communication occurs both visually and with words and effective communication translates into more customers! But creating contemporary and stylish websites is also a part of it. A good looking website that communicates effectively is the goal.
Information Architecture
Design
Organizing the information and navigation on a website for ease of understanding and use is the essence of this design discipline. Doing this well translates into more satisfied visitors who are more likely to take your calls-to-action and hence more likely to become customers.
Responsive
Web
Design
This design discipline is about making your website look and work great on smaller devices like tablets and smart phones. Giving your visitors and customers the best possible experience on their small footprint devices is a must because over 50% of all the visitors to your website are arriving via their phones!
Web
Coding
Skills
Web coding skills like HTML, CSS, Javascript, and jQuery allow me to customize your website to a degree not otherwise possible and let's me make your website work exactly how you want it. The bottom line is that you're website will provide visitors a better experience which will translate in to more customers.
Building Websites with WiX & Thinkific
I specialize in building websites with WiX and Thinkific. Wix is a powerful general purpose site builder that can be used to create any type of website. Thinkific is a special purpose site builder that is dedicated to creating eLearning websites and online schools.
If you're building your business website on one of these platforms, I can help you design and build a great website.
Working with Clients
Here's what I strive for when helping my clients create great websites.
Excellent communication and responsiveness.
Milestone driven deliverables.
A design process as formal or informal as needed and desired.
Project Stages
Every one of my project starts with a consultation to determine the details, requirements, and scope of the project. After the initial consultation, I provide a written project proposal. This proposal describes the project's deliverables and the associated time and cost for each. The proposal, once accepted, then serves as the project plan.

Milestone Driven Projects
One of the keys to success on web projects (or any project for that matter) is to break a job into logical and relatively small milestones and successively deliver those in a timely fashion. This approach provides better visibility on the progress of the project, and it also lets us make any needed adjustments incrementally. This process ultimately delivers better results.
The Design and Delivery Process
For larger projects, here's what you can expect from my design and delivery process.
Wireframe mockups to vet the designs before committing to construction.
Intermediate walkthroughs of working designs to allow feedback and adjustments.
Final walkthrough and sign-off on milestone deliverables.
Everything I've described here is just a framework for reliable and repeatable projects. We can be as formal or informal as seems appropriate for your project.
Bottom line - customer satisfaction is my top priority!
Jeff deliveries on time and as expected.
Jeff is a real pro, and a pleasure to work with. A Thinkific and web design expert, he has completed important tasks in setting up a new, 25-course Thinkific site. And he always gets work done as expected (or more!) and on time.

I can't recommend Jeff highly enough.
Of all the people I had sent requests to for help, Jeff read my letter most carefully, providing some suggestions hadn't thought of. He communicated very clearly, was prompt, and surprised me with two tutorials videos he made demonstrating what he implemented and how to use it.
