Web Design & DTP

We must overcome the notion that we must be
regular...
it robs you of the chance to be extraordinary and
leads you to the mediocre.
~ Uta Hagen ~
Corporate Profile
Well, true to form of me being me,
and everything you have already seen/read on this website, I am not your normal
web designer/mistress...
What I really enjoy is helping the
small business-person to create a Corporate Profile, which includes corporate
colours, branding,
logo, stationery, website, etc, and when you combine this with the fact that I
can also assist with training manuals, skills-development, dealing with SETAs,
writing proposals, coaching, etc, you will understand why Synergistic Solutions
is the perfect "one-stop shop" for any small business.
I pride myself on the fact that I offer
personalised service to all my clients, and that I have a few trusted associates
who work to the same ethics and high standards that I do, on whom I can call
should a client need a service that I do not offer.

Website Design
I work very intuitively, by meeting you and finding out what your
passion is, because it is passion that drives me and it is passion that will
drive YOUR business. I combine this information with your vision and the nature
of your business, to create a individual, personalised website.
If you already have corporate colours, a logo etc, your
website will complement them; if not we will create a corporate profile for you
which will put a face to your business.
As all websites are original and made-to-order I cannot post a
set price, but if you would like a quote, kindly
contact me.
Some examples of websites I have created can
be found on the
testimonials
page (click on either links or graphics to be taken to the live site.)

Why do I need a
Web-designer?
There are a myriad of
reasons to employ a web-designer, and apart from the logical one of "let the
professionals do what they do best" is the fact of knowing html, and very
importantly, do you have the time to do it?
To give you an idea of what
web-designing entails, here is an example of how I work:

Additional services I offer
include:
-
Assisting you to register a
domain name
-
Assisting you to register with
a web host
-
Setting up various mail-boxes
on your server & do mail-forwarding
-
Submitting website to
search engines

-
Inserting a counter so you can
check website visitors
As you can see from the
above, there are 24 major steps to web-design, and quite a few of them are very
time-consuming, so think well before you make the mistake many small-business
owners make and attempt to "save a buck" and do it yourself; your time would be
better spent on doing what you
do best!
