27 Sept – 3 Oct 2020
Peyriac de Mer
Southern France
Spend a week in a beautiful setting in the south of France with marketing professionals who will help you build your own website. Return home with your own, published, professional website for your business. During the week you’ll build your own site under the guidance of a professional web designer.
We guarantee as a minimum you will have a site that will work on different devices with a home page, +3 pages at least, and linked email addresses. It may be possible to have a more developed site depending on the pace that you work at.
Most importantly, you will not only have a professional standard website, but will know how to manage it yourself and know how to successfully use it as a powerful business tool. You will learn how to write for the web, show up in the right Google searches and how to manage your site.
Learn from professionals
Many people have tried to build their own site using a website builder and then been disappointed when it hasn’t resulted in more customers. You’ll hear from professionals who have over fifty years of industry experience between them. They will show you how to avoid the common mistakes that lead to websites not getting found by potential customers. Or worse – actually put them off your business!
Your teachers will be Jansen van Dok, digital marketing specialist, web designer and graphic designer and Sue George, consumer psychologist and marketing expert. The class will be held in English, with a support-teacher present who also speaks Swedish. Maximum 5 participants. Some pre-work is required.
