Have you been thinking that it is about time you
caught the wave of the future and got yourself a business web site? Have
you been delaying because you find it overwhelming or intimidating?
Yes, So What?
I can help you get comfortable with the world wide
web, the internet and email without hassle.
Let's start with a free offer:
Sign up for a series of weekly
e-mails on the Top Ten Technology Tips.

below. We
NEVER sell or trade our mailing list.
Want More?
Hi. My name is Roberta Hill and I have been working
in the area of Human Resources and Organization Development since 1978.
I work as a professional business coach as well as consult to both public and
private sectors on issues surrounding change and transition. I really want other
coaches, consultants and new entrepreneurs to have a small presence on the web
It's a
great way to set out what you do and who you are and what sets you apart form
others. Perhaps it is your way of business planning or a way for you to
establish a virtual brochure. Whatever your reasons, putting up a web site isnt hard and it is really worth doing.
Through technology we are enable to deliver
our service. Unfortunately, many of us are unable to find answers or
understand what we really need. I see lots of over-priced options and techno-babble. I know from experience, it can be affordable.
Who Am I?
I have had no formal "IT" training. I am not a techno geek but I do love technology and I
am comfortable with it. At the moment, I have four domain names, all linked,
and all relatively transparent. I own another three domain names. I am currently with three different
web-hosting services and have tried two others. I am on my fourth ISP
(internet service provider). Believe me, I have been jerked around. But
finally, I am beginning to learn the terrain and now have a good understanding
of what makes sense and what needs to be done. However, I am not
an expert web designer.
It isn't just about the World Wide Web
and Internet either. Besides computers and printers and other
peripherals, there are decisions to be made about software, and telephone
services and PDA's and on and on and on. . .
How Did I Do It?
Well, it was a lot of trial and error and asking lots
of questions. I had help setting up my first web site, just as you
might, but then I was self-taught. I wanted to be in charge of what was
happening and I wanted to be able to update the sites regularly. How did I do
it?
Lots of interest
More time
than most
Playing around and experimenting
Checking out other sites
Reading web
e-zines and books for dummies
Persistence
I have decided to help other
coaches and entrepreneurs set up their own virtual resume - a functional,
simple web site along with four to five months of coaching on issues around technology and
organization.
What Will The Coaching Look Like?
The weekly telephone sessions will last 30 minutes
(approximately 3/month for
a total of 15) on specific topics that will assist you in marketing a
professional image in the most cost effective manner.
My goal is to work with you as you improve your business
results through the use of technology. I also promise
that you will increase your comfort with the use of technology in
general.
Each week I will call you based on our pre-arranged times. The first month
will be quite structured. We will focus on incorporating your values and
personality into your web design. Then, you decide on your goals and topics for
subsequent sessions.
These coaching topics might
include:
my web site - explaining the jargon, what are the basics, what do I really
need to know
telecommunications - types of service and long
distance
soft copy - e-mail preferences, aliases, signatures,
the value of a free e-mail account, filing and
folders
hard copy - transferring brochures, business cards
and bios
various methods of payment - including credit
cards
equipment and software - the minimum needed and backups
the internet and world wide web - making the
most of it
virtual networking - newsletters, intranets,
teleclasses, marketing
basic organizational skills -accounting,
paperwork, filing, records
time management
business planning and strategy
