Web, Print - Designing for your Business

Well, it seems as though many people who are in business think they know what good design is and they intend to make it known to the rest of us when we visit their web site or get a business card.

Its true that in one persons eye something may not look right, and to another it looks perfectly fine.

Problem is, that one of those people who do not think it looks right could have been a potential client!

That is where it can cost you, in the clients that you have lost.

Now, the best course of action is not always just go out and hire a designer. Although I would personally love to help, and of course I would like to get new business, but more important than that, you should get your own information about what good and bad design is and how it works for you and not against you and your company.

First things first, know what is good and not good, and how to tell the difference too.

Our suggestion would be to go to a site and see what we are talking about for yourself, do not be fooled, this is serious!

I know, the name is a little funny, but this is a real and very serious subject if you want to survive in this business against your competition.

Once you know what good and not good design is, then you can take another look at what you have, or what you want, and start a real, clean, well laid out plan that will make you and your company shine like no other.

If you have any questions, or need any help - Please, do not hesitate to ask.

Have a great day :)

Like a lot of people, Its TIME for a Change ....

I have decided after lots of thinking, talking with the wifey, and pondering what the outcome could be, I am selling everything!
Well, maybe not everything, but just about all of it has to go.

We will obviously keep our bed, a couple of TV's, a computer or 2, and some clothes and food, but just about everything else, has to be sold.

We are attempting to simplify our life. Its not going to be an easy task, and we are not all that concerned with how much money we will get from all the sales, but to be able to have a cleaner house would be worth it all if we can get it done by spring.

We are also thinking of moving south, really far south too, DFW, Tx. in specific. Nothing is done until we even sell the house, and get new jobs, but this is the ultimate goal eventually.

I know all this may be a shock, but it has been coming on for quite sometime, and its about time for a Change - so, we are goin' for it, now while we still can.

Thanks for reading, and come on, buy my stuff!

Happy Thanksgiving to ANYONE that reads this!

Hope you have a great holiday!

Eat lots of turkey!

And no matter what you do - be THANKFUL for the things you have, and do not even think about the things you dont have.

Things that I am thankful for - on a daily basis, but moreso on days like tomorrow:
My Family - Wife and ALL 3 kids :)
My job - Even though it may not be the greatest - I have a job!
My car - it is still running and getting me back and forth.
My house - it is still home, no matter how far it is from civilization.
My Honesty/Integrity - Something that NOBODY can take from me.

Also, I am thankful I am still alive, and in relatively good health.

Thank the GOOD LORD that he has given me what I do have - and I have to say, I HAVE A LOT!

Whatever you do tomorrow - make sure you get to eat some good food and spend some quality time with the ones you care about - that's what I am doing :)

Happy Happy Turkey Day to EVERYONE :)
