Hi, and welcome to Grow A Better Business, the Dorset based Internet Mentor that helps you to build a more successful and sustainable business using the Internet with the many free and low cost tools and techniques that are available to all. Here are a few of the various subject areas I cover when working with clients;
- Search Engine Optimisation - on and off site techniques for building greater visibility of your site
- Marketing and promoting businesses online
- Identifying and implementing online payment systems to enable customers to buy online
- Online publishing, including how to get your book or CD onto Amazon
- Which services to use if you want to sell online without a website
- Using autoresponders to build fabulous customer lists that are actively seeking what you are selling
- How to monetise an existing website through the use of affiliate marketing
- Getting to grips with Google Adwords, Mircosoft Ad Center and Yahoo! Search Marketing
- How you can use online services to build an ‘almost instant’ website
Almost all my work takes place by mentoring those businesses who would like more in-depth development around specific Internet issues. However, I also present seminars and workshops occasionally, and information about these will be included on the website.
Grow a Better Business, is an Internet training and development organisation based in the beautiful county of Dorset that is focussed on enabling entrepreneurs, micro and small businesses create an enduring and sustainable business by using the Internet to it’s fullest capacity. My name is Linda Parkinson-Hardman, and I have over 11 years experience running successful, online businesses and over twenty years experience using the Internet.
- I won’t build you a website, but I will help you make the most of the one you have already and I can help you source FREE software that will build professional websites that are easily maintainable
- I won’t do your Search Engine Optimisation for you, but I’ll teach you how to get Google, Yahoo! and MSN to love your website as much as you do
- I won’t sell you a domain name, but I can show how to sell online without even having your own website
- I won’t do your marketing, but I will show you how you can do it yourself - often free of charge
- I won’t set up your online payment system, but I will help you to do it instead
Why don’t I do these things for you? Because if I did, I would need to charge you every time you wanted to make a simple change. Whilst, there are a lot of companies who seem to have a vested interest in making business online appear difficult, I believe it is easy and that anyone can do it with a bit of training, development, encouragement and support. My job is to help you feel confident enough to do it for yourself.
If you still aren’t sure that Grow A Better Business might be the right support for you, or you are unsure about the quality of consultancy, why not sign up for my FREE FIVE DAY E-COURSE that will introduce you to some of the content of the ebook and demonstrate the sort of information you covered in my seminars, masterclasses and consultancy. When the e-course has finished, you will continue to get weekly emails giving you hints, tips and suggestions about to create an even better business with the Internet.
