It's official: we've launched

Thanks to the Internet, small business owners are now at an advantage. The web has opened countless new channels through which we can connect with customers.

But the web is a tricky and oftentimes, confusing, place.

Our blog features articles to help small business owners navigate the murky waters of online marketing.

We’ll talk about everything from building a website to using social media to market your business and monitoring the performance of your online marketing campaigns.

The goal of this blog is simple: to share knowledge. To that end, it’s packed with online marketing tips for small business owners, especially those who don’t have time to become online marketing specialists. After all, they have a business to run!

A Little History

My name is Melissa Donovan. Some of you may know me from my other website, Writing Forward, a blog that shares tips for better writing. Through Scribizzy, I’ve been working with small business owners who want to harness the power of the Internet and use it to successfully reach new customers.

I’ve spent the past few years growing my own business on the web and helping other entrepreneurs do the same. Through research and a lot of trial and error, I’ve learned a lot about how a business can succeed online and how a business can fail. I want to help small business owners avoid marketing traps that lead to nowhere and instead focus on strategies that will truly benefit their businesses.

One way I do that is through the various online marketing services that I offer here at Scribizzy. Another way is by sharing my knowledge through this blog.

Creating Opportunity Through Knowledge

Here at Scribizzy, we create stuff. Websites mostly. But what we really do is help our clients bring more customers to their businesses. We do all of this efficiently and effectively, and with purpose.

When you run your own business, you learn a lot in a short amount of time. I’m a firm believer that knowledge is power, and for business owners, knowledge can help your business soar. The blog here at Scribizzy aims to impart knowledge gained through experience, so others can benefit from it.

The articles here also aim to educate small business owners about the web and online marketing. What do you need to know before you invest in a website? How many pages should your site have? What colors are best suited to your business offerings? How will you bring visitors to your site, and once they arrive, how will you convince them to become customers?

We’ll answer these and many other questions that pertain to owning a website and gaining an online following.
