How I Can Help
I can show you the tips and tricks I learned from creating national news Web sites.
News editors use special skills when writing and designing for the Web so that their messages will be clear, direct and easily understood by millions of people. I will show you how to apply those principles of Internet communication to your site.
I’ll show you why some pages work and some don’t.
Who Would Benefit
My speeches and training sessions are designed for groups that want to communicate better on the Internet – and they’re not sure how to do it.
I specialize in tailoring my talks or training to the skills level of your group. If you don’t know how to get started, or if you realize your site isn’t doing what you want, I can help.
Audiences who don’t understand the technology of the Internet – and don’t want to – are perfect for my presentations. I don’t talk about technology, I talk about creating effective messages for your Internet community.
What I Give Your Group
- FREE analysis of one Web page
- Lessons learned from experience
- Vision about using the Internet to meet your goals
- Insider’s examples from the nation’s most popular Web sites
- A look at what’s to come
From The Audience

He really knows our language. Combined with his knowledge of the volatile Web world, that made for an exciting afternoon of great questions and answers.
Caesar Andrews, Editor, Gannett News Service
I wish you could have joined us on the ride back to Fort McNair (after your talk) to hear the student and faculty comments. You would have been very pleased.
