"Build, market and monetize your online business."
Sandy Penny helps entrepreneurs launch online businesses, build websites, create blogs, set up and use social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, Self Growth and some new options), optimize websites for search engines, and determine what online tools your business needs to be most successful.
Sandy has more than 20 years of experience in writing online content and marketing materials, ghostwriting novels, publishing with Kindle, and other writing, editing and marketing skills to assist your business.
Web Classes NM trains you or your employees to build and maintain your online presence and untangle the web mysteries that prevent you from moving forward with your Internet plans. She also teaches you how to monetize your site so you can make money from it even if your main business is a brick and mortar location.
Sandy makes it easy, exciting and fun to launch yourself into the world market. Isn't it time to live where you want to live and do what you love to do and get paid for it? There are even free options if you're starting up and can't afford to invest a lot of money to have a professional look and easy user experience.
Do you know how to find and use free templates? Free web hosting? Do you know how to use Paint? It's already in your PC, and you may never use it. It is very useful for resizing large photos, cropping pictures, creating banners, creating files from your printscreen button, and adding text to photos.
Have you ever heard of PicNik? It's a free photo editing program with all kinds of fun effects, borders and other tools to create the professional look and feel you want on your site. Do you know how to find a free visitor tracking software and add a counter to your site?
Do you know how to create an automatically running slideshow with a free program and embed it on your site? This may all sound technical, but it's so easy when you have a coach working with you and walking you through the process. Sandy Penny is that coach, and she has the patience to deal with your learning curve.
Appointments via phone, at your location (in New Mexico), or at a scheduled class are available.
