Talk to your doctor

When someone is not feeling well, they typically don’t walk into the pharmacy and ask for “a prescription drug.” Nor do they walk in and ask for some azacitidine. When you are ill, you first need a doctor to diagnose what’s wrong, to look at your symptoms and maybe run some tests. Only then can she prescribe the right medicine.

Building a website is the same way. When you hire someone to simply “build a website” it often does nothing to make your business better. What really makes a website effective is the diagnosis and prescription. (If the FDA regulated the marketing field, you would not be allowed to hire someone to build a website without getting consulting first in order to develop a clear marketing strategy.)

My firm, Cloud Mountain Marketing, is like a medical center with an attached pharmacy. Yes, we do build websites–all different kinds–but the service that is even more valuable is the consulting process I go through with my clients BEFORE the site is built.

Would you like your website to really, really work hard for you to make you money? Then talk to your doctor. Because it’s not just a website.

To your success!

    “I have benefited so much from my work with Steve. He is such a mixture of heart, talent, and incredible intelligence, that he gets you clarity with such rapidity and ease. On one particular session where I was rather down, I opened up to a rather personal and very raw space with him. He made me perfectly comfortable to share what I was thinking and feeling. And at the perfect time, using my experiences shared on previous sessions, he asked the perfect question that shifted everything. I would recommend Steve's coaching to help you with whatever you want to accomplish. Steve is the real deal! I would recommend him to anyone committed to improving their business, themselves and their lives.”

    “Steve is an excellent coach. He has the ability to listen deeply, reflect honestly, ask challenging questions, and help clients view life from a new perspective....[Steve] helped me unwrap some unconscious limiting beliefs from long ago about money. For the first time I was able to see how I’d been limiting my business growth because of my discomfort with growing wealthy. Once I became aware of that belief I was free to make new choices. On to prosperity!...[Steve] is simply a great coach with outstanding listening skills.”
