Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from local succesful healthcare entrepreneur and take your business planning skills to the next level.

She has practiced medicine for over 20 years.\nShe moved to Las Vegas in 2016 and immediately knew she was home.

SUMMARY:101 Website Basics
DESCRIPTION:101 is the website basics\, when to pull the trigger for a website\, and what to do before you get there. \n“Everyone says that there are secrets to great design and they’re wrong. They aren’t secrets so much as they are a checklist of things that might seem counterintuitive on the surface\, but obvious when you hear the explanation. \n• How to set up your website for success from the beginning \n• What matters most to visitors? \n• Building functionality – map out how the site needs to work for the customer \n• Why no one cares about you and your “about me” page…except when they do. \n• Your invisible third party on the site • When should you pull the trigger on building a site? When should you pay for it? What should I do before I get to that point? \n• Workshop live sites that you own/use and how to improve them in real time \nRyan Pramberg\, Alexander Newby\, and Rob Benson – this team of serial entrepreneurs have had their hands in non-profits\, kickstarters\, web design and development\, and financial advising. We believe that the best strategy is to “show\, not tell” as we build beautiful websites that convert for your business.

SUMMARY:102 Website Review and Refresh
DESCRIPTION:102 is the website review\, refresh\, and what other ways to generate revenue through a website once your business is established. \nYou’ve built a business that works and now it’s time for the website to do more for you…what more do I need it to do? \n\n                Moving from a first version to an updated version – what do I need to consider before I do this?\n                Does your site pay for itself or is it a money hole? If its a money hole\, how do we solve that problem?\n                Is the website the center of your lead generation or something else?\n                What are some common ways to update a site to make it look clean and modern? A 21st century design style?\n                What are you asking clients to do? Is it clear? Obvious? Simple? Central? Repeated?\n                Live Group Activity – What does your current website communicate to people that are not you?\n\nRyan Pramberg\, Alexander Newby\, and Rob Benson – this team of serial entrepreneurs have had their hands in non-profits\, kickstarters\, web design and development\, and financial advising. We believe that the best strategy is to “show\, not tell” as we build beautiful websites that convert for your business.
