Remember the sound of dial-up?⁣
⁣
Remember animated gifs bouncing around the screen?⁣
⁣
And …⁣
⁣
Waiting foreeeeeever for pages to load?⁣
⁣
And …⁣
⁣
Using thick, printed directory books to find website URLs because Google didn’t exist?⁣
⁣
And …⁣
⁣
Feeling awestruck every time you typed in www.⁣
⁣
And …⁣
⁣
The joy of looking at anything online because you had never seen anything like it before?⁣
⁣
And …⁣
⁣
Geocities, AngelFire, Compuserve, Prodigy, Lycos, Ask Jeeves, and …⁣
⁣
WELCOME⁣
YOU’VE GOT MAIL!⁣
⁣
The year was 1996.⁣
⁣
I was a junior in high school.⁣
⁣
Computers were my thing, so I took a coding class as an elective.⁣
⁣
That’s where I fell in love with HTML (Hypertext Markup Language).⁣
⁣
I did my coding by hand in Notepad.⁣
⁣
Netscape was my browser.⁣
⁣
AOL was my ISP.⁣
⁣
I was hooked for life.⁣
⁣
Thanks, June Idzal! 🙏⁣
⁣
My final project was a James Bond website.⁣
⁣
It’s still online today - universalexports.net⁣
⁣
In the years since I’ve created dozens of websites for fun and for pay.⁣
⁣
Most are long gone.⁣
⁣
Some never even saw the light of day.⁣
⁣
However, there are two extra-special websites that continuously fuel my personal and professional growth.⁣
⁣
1. AdventuresofaGoodMan.com — My Photographic Storytelling travel blog - which is how I express myself creatively. ⁣
⁣
2. GoodmanCreatives.com — my marketing, web design, branding, and coaching agency⁣
⁣
Along with Universal Exports, running these sites has helped me keep up with the latest trends in web design and marketing for 25 years.⁣
⁣
So there you have it.⁣
⁣
That’s my resume.⁣
⁣
Ask me anything. ...

Sometimes people don’t have the time to sift through loads of information. ⁣
⁣
That lengthy blog post cuts into their time they have with family. ⁣
⁣
So in the end, traditional content marketing can become static.⁣
⁣
To prevent that from happening, here are a few ways you can integrate interactive marketing into your approach.⁣
⁣
» Quizzes⁣
⁣
» Interactive Data⁣
⁣
» Contests⁣
⁣
» Being active on social media⁣

Why Should I Pay More for Web Hosting?⁣
⁣
It’s a good question — and one we get a lot here at Goodman Creatives. ⁣
⁣
The short answer is that cheap web hosting can slow down your website, leave you vulnerable to hackers and malware, and potentially drive customers away. ⁣
⁣
Think of it this way,⁣
⁣
If you just bought a Ferrari, would you put sand in the gas tank?!⁣
⁣
On one hand, you don’t want to blindly go out and spend big bucks on top-of-the-line options that you’ll never use or understand. ⁣
⁣
On the other hand, having this technology in place can make a big difference behind the scenes … even if you never know it’s there. ⁣

Google searches for Online Therapy, Teletherapy, Virtual Therapy, and Video Therapy have been on the rise since the early days of COVID-19.⁣

⁣
"Online Therapy“ — gets between 10k – 100k searches each month.⁣

If you’re using Google Ads, you will pay between $7 – $18 to get your result on Page 1.⁣
⁣
There is high competition for this keyword.⁣
⁣

When creating copy for your dream therapy client, it’s essential to avoid big words, technical jargon, and “me statements.”⁣
⁣
I get it – this style of writing is what’s familiar to you. ⁣
⁣
Long sentences detailing the psychopathology of an issue are what your professors wanted in your thesis.⁣
⁣
But this isn’t grad school – and it’s not what your dream therapy client is looking for.⁣
⁣
When your dream client visits your website, they are in pain. ⁣
⁣
They want to know that you understand them. ⁣
⁣
That you can relate to what they are going through. ⁣
⁣
When they first arrive, they don’t want to hear about you.⁣
⁣
The key to a successful therapist website is taking yourself almost completely out of it.⁣

Most online business owners share a common set of dreams⁣
⁣
✅ Work from anywhere⁣
✅ Earn passive income⁣
✅ Set your own schedule⁣
✅ Be your own boss⁣

⁣
HOWEVER⁣

Success takes time and consistency⁣

Living the dream doesn’t happen overnight – regardless of what “proven system or offer” you choose. ⁣
⁣
Do you have the financial cushion to jump right in and make your online biz your only income source? ⁣
⁣
Or, does this need to be a side hustle while you get started?⁣
⁣
There's one thing I can tell you with 100% certainty.⁣
⁣
The world is online … and it’s not going back⁣
⁣
The isolation of Covid has unified our world via social media. ⁣
⁣
More than ever, people want to support people and brands they know, like, and trust. ⁣
⁣
Now is the time to reevaluate everything. ⁣
Life. ⁣
Business. ⁣
Relationships.⁣
⁣
How can you consciously create what comes next?⁣
⁣
That's what I want to help you discover.⁣
⁣
At Goodman Creatives, I help conscious entrepreneurs create their dream business with a mix of online marketing, personal branding, web design, funnels, and 1-1 coaching.⁣

Does this feel right? ⁣
⁣
Is my content truly authentic or secretly self-serving? ⁣
⁣
Can a relationship be genuine if the person might be a lead? ⁣
⁣
To consciously create a personal brand, we must continuously ask ourselves the tough questions.⁣
⁣
There’s a fine balance between your self-promotion and the value you share with the world. ⁣
⁣
Keeping the scale tipped to the side of “giving back” is essential to having a personal brand that people relate to and want to support.⁣
