  4. Complete honesty with yourself

How this course is different from the rest

This is not a course on how to design, develop, or maintain a website. That comes much, much later. The focus of this course is to get you out of your own way. To learn to make decisions quickly, and stick to them.

This course is to help you realize what matters more than your website: growing your business.

Each lesson will have resources! Here’s what you can expect:

Free Resources

The cauldron with the star? That means it’s entirely free and can be found on this website, or another that we link to.

Nearly Free Resources

The cauldron with the lock? This is a resource that is free, but will require an email address to access. Typically, this means you’ll be added to our mailing list (unsubscribe at anytime!)

Paid Resources

The cauldron with the dollar sign ($)? These are resources that will require payment to access. These could be books from your favorite book retailer (always check your library, too!), templates for things that will make your project go quicker, e-books that dive deeper into the lesson, and more.

Your future self will thank you for completing this mini-course

You are getting the tips, questions, strategies, and more right from the source: a professional web developer & designer (yes, we exist) of nearly 30 years.

The discoveries you make in the short lessons of this course will help you be prepared to design your own site, work with me down the road, or blow away whatever web designer you choose in the future.
