Calling all Virtual Assistants and Administrative Professionals ...

"New Website Course Teaches You How to Manage Both Your Websites & Blogs
Your Clients' Sites Too...
So You Can Increase Your Rates,
Attract Better Clients,
and Have More Free Time!"

Dear Friend,

Doing business over the Internet is here to stay -- you know that because you're a virtual assistant or administrative professional who connects with clients over the Internet. Are you taking full advantage of the opportunity you have to support those clients with a full range of web skills?

Think about all the clients you could have had if you had known how to update a website or blog! Those clients might not have been in search of a web designer, they probably just needed someone who knew enough about websites and blogs to make regular updates. That could have been you if you had just some basic HTML and CSS skills.

Maybe you've been working with Wordpress to set up websites because you don't know how else to create a website. Wordpress is fine as long as you stay within the theme you've chosen. But what do you do when a client wants to change the background? Or the header? Or the fonts? Even with Wordpress, you keep bumping into HTML and Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) information in pages, posts, images, widgets, and plug-ins. Are you ready to really learn how it all works?

You don't have to be a web designer to profit from web skills; you can be a "web virtual assistant" and take care of those day-to-day activities. Virtual assistants with web skills make more money per hour, and can take on tech-savvy clients who are hungry for skilled help. So....

  • If you're an virtual assistant or administrative professional who is ready to take your business to the next level...
  • If you're ready to create a website for the first time and you need it done yesterday;
  • If you have a website but you're being held hostage by your web designer;
  • If you have a web designer but don't want to wait around for simple updates to be made;

    ...you've come to the right place!
Opportunity Knocks!

Hi, my name is Toolie® and I teach motivated virtual assistants and administrative professionals how to get more done in less time by learning strategic web skills that make them money. I've been in the computer business for more than 25 years, and I've been an entrepreneur for the last 6 years. I have taught adults ages 19 to 91 how to use computers and software, so I know how to explain technical details in plain language.

Don't Worry! You Don't Have to Know Everything ...
Just the Really Useful Stuff!™

My specialty is sifting through current Internet technology to find the minimum knowledge and effort that is necessary (for websites, blogs, personal computing, etc.) and focusing on what works for entrepreneurs, virtual assistants, and small business owners who are time-starved and need to make money.

Rosie Horner on Toolie's Webinars:

"[Toolie], I can tell you from personal experience [that] what you provide is so valuable. And it's valuable because you make things clear. It's simple, and as a Baby Boomer, I appreciate that. And I feel so empowered after every seminar I have with you!"

Rosie Horner ~ Maplewood, NJ

I wasn't born a techie. I started out in life as a professional musician: you know, the quintessential starving artist. I got involved with computers in college, and those skills paid for a lot of expensive music lessons. What I learned from those "day jobs" is that I needed to stay open to learning things other than music that could keep my musical career going.

Those same "learn it and get it done" skills help me now as an entrepreneur, and I want that same level of confidence and competence for you. I want YOU to be empowered to take care of yourself and take care of your websites and blogs -- possibly the most valuable and potentially lucrative business assets you have.

Announcing the "I Can Fix My Website"
Self-Paced Course and Coaching Program

For the first time, there is a course designed for virtual assistants, administrative professionals, entrepreneurs, and small business owners that teaches REAL SKILLS based on YOUR needs, not what some designer thinks you need. This self-paced program is made for people who want to hone in on and learn the good stuff that works!

Good news for entrepreneurs!When you invest in the course, you'll receive your 6-disc set of training CDs with all the lessons you need to learn HTML and CSS for Internet Marketing. Then, you set up a 1-hour private coaching session with me where we assess your current website if you have one and/or plan a new one if you don't. Then, over those first 3 months, you'll have 4 more 30-minute private sessions with me to support your website progress.

In between sessions, you can post questions in our dedicated support forum where other virtual assistants, entrepreneurs, and small business owners like you share ideas and help each other. Finally, twice a month we have either a website critique/makeover, or a session with new ideas and demonstrations.

You won't believe the money you'll MAKE (not to mention the money you'll SAVE) very quickly in this program. I designed it that way. I want to help you get in, apply this skill set, and get on with your life.

Whose Schedule Are You On?

Don't get me wrong, I love web designers -- I am one! I've used other web and graphic desgners myself from time to time. But they're human beings too, with schedules of their own. And I am not their only client, so I have to wait around for changes just like you do if you're still depending on a web designer for everything.

What I know from being an Internet Marketer is that Speed to Market is Everything! If you think of a brilliant idea at 9 pm that needs to go on your or your clients' website before a 9 am product launch, could you do it tonight if you had to? With my help YOU COULD!

Toolie, What Makes This Course Different?

When I first left Microsoft to start my own business, I already had some basic HTML skills. Like a good student, I took classes at the local community college to learn more. While I was there, though, I noticed that I was the only entrepreneur in the room.

That should have been my first clue: the college was teaching me what corporate web designers do when they've got plenty of money and plenty of time. That's not the life of an entrepreneur. You may have some money coming in, but time is extremely precious! You need the core knowledge (save the frills for later), you need it fast, and you need it to work NOW.

After working on 20 websites of my own and dozens more for clients, I have figured out the simplest, fastest, most efficient ways to get websites up and running. And here's the best part: Internet search engines (the source of most new customers) LOVE simple websites! Search engines also like pages that load quickly. You don't have to waste your money on flashy stuff: stick with what attracts website traffic, and profit from your wisdom! It's a win-win situation.

I'll also tell you a VERY important secret to all this that web designers don't want you to know. What I'm about to show you is detailed, but not difficult!! You will be pleasantly surprised at how quickly you learn.

A Website Course Designed Just For YOU!

I started this product by putting all the best stuff I could write and find about creating websites for virtual assistants, entrepreneurs, and small businesses into a live, 12-hour course that I taught over the Internet to 4 different groups of entrepreneurs.

Toolie, Do I Really Need to Know This Stuff?

Yeah, you really do, if you're serious about using the Internet to make money in your business. I know there are plenty of other people who will tell you that you don't have to, just so they can sell you their quick-fix programs.

How do I know this? Because I've helped disillusioned website and blog owners regain their confidence, learn how to manage their websites, start attracting customers, and finally start making money through those websites.

  • Have you already been burned by a quick-fix solution that ended up wasting your time and money? It happened to me too, but we can make it right.
  • Are you the kind of person who recognizes the value of doing something right the first time so that you don't have to do it over again? Excellent! I'm so glad to meet you!
  • As a Virtual Assistant or Administrative Professional, aren't you looking for ways to expand your services to your customers? Hey, welcome, you've come to the right place! I teach real skills in this course.
  • Maybe you've just been laid off, and you're taking that leap into entrepreneurship for the first time. I'm so glad you're here: let's get you started off right!
  • Or are you in high school or college, looking for a good "backup" skill to help you make money while you're in college? Real HTML and Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) skills are marketable as a part-time job, and I can help you get started right away.

Knowing how to manage a website or blog and confidently make it work for you is a smart investment in yourself. Believe me, there are website courses out there where you can pay more, learn less, and still end up dependent on a web designer. I'd rather that you pay less, learn more, and become self-sufficient.

You'll use your skills for more than just websites. Think about the autoresponders, the email newsletters, e-courses, squeeze pages, one-page salesletters, and thank-you pages you'll want to create for your or your clients' online product sales! Think about adding text widgets in blogs or social media feeds on your website. You will learn these HTML and CSS skills during the course, and use them over and over and over again on both websites and blogs. And you'll save money because you will know how to copy, paste, and tweak in no time.

"After attending Toolie's class I've realized that she has removed the mystery of HTML for me. Toolie has done this with ease and clarity. I recommend her coaching to every one who is not computer-savvy."

...I Just Have a Few Questions...

That's OK! Here are some of the most common questions I receive.

  • How do I even know where to start?
    Your course investment includes 3 hours of one-on-one coaching time, starting with a 1-hour strategy session where you and I make sure you get started quickly and easily. We'll go over your ideas, make sure you have your domain name and a good hosting plan, and put your plan to work. Then, we can meet 4 more times for 30 minutes each, which will keep you on track. You have up to 3 months to use this coaching time with me.
  • What HTML editing software do I need (like FrontPage or something)?
    If you're worried that you're going to have to spend a lot of money on a website editor, don't worry! I can show you a great website editor that is FREE, and two more editors with extra features that cost less than $70.
  • What else do I have to buy?
    My Mom taught me to be frugal, so I look for free but good tools wherever I can. During the course I recommend that you purchase a menu-generating tool that's about $40 and an image editor (Photoshop Elements) that's about $70. But guess what! They BOTH come with 30-day free trials, so you can try before you buy to be sure you really need them.
  • What if 3 months isn't enough time?
    You are welcome to continue your support forum participation at a reduced membership price reserved just for ICFMW graduates. That membership includes the 2 monthly group calls. You can also invest in more one-on-one coaching time with me at reduced rates.
  • What if I encounter an HTML/CSS problem with a client website that I can't solve? That's exactly why I over the ongoing support forum membership! "I've got your back!" If you get stuck, I can answer questions you post in the forum, usually within hours.

"Working with Toolie is a tremendous experience. I wanted to learn how to manage my online sales page myself so I can update it and test it on my own. Now I am learning to do exactly that! Toolie is so responsive to her students. She answers all my questions posted to her forum within mere hours, and her span of knowledge is remarkable — from HTML to Wordpress to sophisticated aspects of formatting in Microsoft Word to shopping carts and more. Not only is Toolie quick to answer posted questions, but she is readily available to schedule private-coaching time slots. The result? Momentum that moves projects along full speed!"
