Website and Basic Marketing Suite Details

A Note About Website Creation

The assumption is, as a writer, you will write the content you want your readers to see. If you need that written for you, it can be done for an additional charge of $100 per page up to 500 words each.
You are responsible for purchasing the domain and hosting, however I’m happy to walk you through the process.

The website will include these five pages: 

Home page/New book sales page
Books/Sales page (links to purchase your book)
About
Events
Blog if you would like it

You are able to pick from one of our amazing templates! Or if you have a WordPress template in mind, we can make make that happen.


The Basic Marketing Suite

Please note, these are DIGITAL products that will be delivered to your inbox. You are then able to use them how you see fit including using your favorite printer for hard copies.

If you find you need hard copies provided for you, I can certainly do that. However, it will be at the price I pay for the product as well as my time.
The receipt for the items will be included with the shipment as well as a receipt for payment of my time so you have those for your records.

If you have any questions about any of these items, please feel free to let me know!
