In this customer story, we're excited to introduce beauty queen and marketing/branding specialist, Laurie Balla. She shared with us her story about how she was able to create her pageant coach, Kirin Christianson's site - Red Haute Mama with the help of Themify!
Hi, I'm Laurie Balla! I'm a beauty queen and marketing & branding specialist who designs affordable and stylish websites primarily for small, women-owned businesses. I've been a programmer for over 15 years; I started coding in straight html and went from there. As a small business owner myself I found that other women owned business were having a hard time finding enough clients, so I began helping them get their businesses noticed.
It's been awhile since we last published a customer story. What better way to kick off our first story of the year, than to showcase one of our favourite site: http://www.sylvieadams.com/. Featuring none other than Sylvie Adams herself - a visual artist who, through Themify, was able to create a professional-looking, personalized site.
Hello, I'm Sylvie Adams and I'm a visual artist based in Montreal, Canada. I do contemporary abstract paintings and in 2008, I felt the need to have my own website to present and showcase my work. Having previously worked as a designer, I put a lot of attention to details. I knew I wanted something very personal, customizable, and easily updated. But I knew nothing about websites or coding and I was basically on my own. So I started with a website builder at a hosting company. I realized pretty soon how cumbersome it was and dumped it almost right away. After some searching on the net I came upon a company which was having a theme that I liked. It was nice and had some customization, but support was lacking. And with the many updates to WordPress, plugins, and some problems using the theme, I realized that support and ease of customization were one of the most important things for someone like me, who was doing all the work by myself. Unsatisfied, I went back to searching the net, where I finally found my dream company: Themify.
Sharing her passion for web design, Roberta De Rosa tells us her story of how Themify was able to help solve her problem of creating personalized sites for her clients, while keeping up with the growing requests. Read on, and see how she was able to do this, and view some of the beautiful sites she's done.
