Having Jennifer build my website would be the best thing for my Parent Coaching business to grow from my local reach to a national reach. Her insight and ability to articulate the strategy for a high profile professional business website is where Jennifer outperforms her competition. Her specialty in adding unique elements to a site to help my new clients understand what results I can deliver for them is what I need to grow and why I want Jennifer's expertise.

I am in the process of heading in a completely different business direction. Having a new, fresh website would contribute greatly to my social marketing approach of growing this new business. I have viewed several of Jennifer's websites and have been impressed with her use of flash, html and color to present a professionally designed image. This website would be the launching pad for my blogs and other marketing tools related to helping parents prepare their kids for college. The importance of having a vibrant, interactive and easily navigated site is tantamount in the success of this new venture.

It would be an honor to have Jennifer "redo" or should I say remake my website. Not only would this help my business but I am excited to bring her websites 2 grow to my customers as well. Here in New Orleans we are a little behind the tech times...so having turn key tech solutions fits well here. Anyway my current site is fine...it's like an old comfortable t-shirt that fits perfectly on lazy saturday mornings. Comfortable but not much to look at...a little thread bare, a little stained a little out dated...I think it may have shrunk a little to--cause its a little small now. It's time to grow up and have a big boy website! :-) Being on the show would be fantastic as well. I can replay the video on my #1 read New Orleans weekly ezine for New Orleans entrepreneurs. This will showcase my new websites2grow offering from bestbizsites. Fingers crossed!

Hi Jennifer! I just got back from Fabienne's MMBW and realized I have a lot of work to do and need help getting it done. My business transforms students and families lives. My business is expanding because of the transformation that occurs. I don't feel my site is up to par with other sites or capable to handle the expansion. My goal is much bigger than just for business as I am doing my life's purpose to help students be successful independent learners which makes an impact on the family and so on. With my own daughter having a brain injury from an autoimmune disorder and now out of remission again - meaning - yes - more brain injury - well - I'm a bit overwhelmed. We are champions of this but still I need an expert web person to help me out. My daughter is the basis for my business and I would love an expert like yourself to help me create a site that is able to service many other families around the world. I hope to take my story to Oprah one day and credit you for launching me online!

I need a "real" website! Ok, I have one, but I have been trying to update it and make it better for over a year. I'm stuck in that phase of I still work to cover income & expenses so I do everything else on a shoe-string, and I know one big break through would send my business soaring. My birthday is in May, and this would be the perfect GIFT! I am ready to grow and take my marketing & my business up several levels. I'm a natural helper and would so appreciate being a receiver this one time! Thanks for the opportunity.

Hello Jennifer! It would be an honor to have you build a website for my business since I haven't been able to afford one and would like to take my business to a much needed higher level. I am wanting to be able to provide my clients more and with me finishing up taking the Social Media Marketing Certification you would be helping me to publish this and other services that I provide with an "online presence" which would grow my business and take me in the direction I want to go! I am not sure and have been so overwhlemed with the whole website deal and just don't know where to start but with your expertise in website building this would mean that I would be able to take my business to a higher level and get those new clients and provide a clearer understanding to the ones I have! Thank you for such a wonderful opportunity and hopefully you will be the one to launch me online!

Hi Jennifer,
First, let me say, to you and your family, I'm very happy your husband came home from his deployment, safe and sound.
I know it's hard keeping your home running smoothly, your son happy and feeling secure with daddy gone, running your business... and all with grace and dignity. Congratulations! You've done it! And done it well.
When my hubby returned it was so relieving and wonderful. I can feel your excitement!
Second, about your contest...
Having you Jennifer, build... put together... or create my dream website, whatever words one uses for this, is perfect.
Why?
Wandering through your very put together website and seeing your samples, I know you're the designer for me and my business.
Your ability to translate what's in clients heads, improving upon it and getting it "on screen/online" is something you do and extremely well.
You'll fashion my dream in a way that's beautiful, functional, and so workable for my clients... making my life easier (Thank You). I know the site you design will function perfectly because you've created a work of art that's visually pleasing and easy to get around with all the bells and whistles needed for a truly professional website.
Thanks for all you do and good luck to all in this contest.

My wife and I run a unique school on 20 acres. We teach homeschool students from the local area whose parents don't have the time or expertise to teach them and international students, who live on campus with us. We have lots of good information, but we have gotten absolutely ZERO signups from our webpage. All our students have come by word of mouth. We face 2 challenges: (1) marketing our site to potential students in other countries, and (2) getting them to convert once they get to our website. Having a new redesigned site would dramatically increase our ability to do what we love most - teach. Thanks for considering us.

Hi Jennifer,
Speaking with you over the past couple of weeks has sealed the deal! You are the web designer for me. I have been looking to get my website up for a while now I took my time and did some research & interviewing. Jennifer, after looking at your own website, reading your ezine,
reviewing your sample work, and the professionalism & patience you have provided me with is amazing. That is exactly what I am looking for in my web designer.
The ONE big thing that stuck out for me was not only your enthusiasm for what you do but you really listened to my wants and concerns that I had for a website. And I know I had lots & lots of questions too! You didn't just try to "sell" me! It came from your authentic self...making sure that I was comfortable & knowledgeable on the how to's of what is involved. I believe you truly love helping design & create.....and it comes across!
Thank you for all of your help.

Jennifer,
I would love to have you build a website for me. I have a sales consulting business. I help small business owners develop and implement a sales strategy that is comfortable for them.
My passion is empowering others who think that they can't sell - a comment I hear daily. I have been successful showing all types of people that selling is really about connecting your passion wih others who are interested!
You are that type of person! It's obvious that you have a passion for helping the non technical (me)by developing a website for them that puts the best foot foward for thier business!
I would be honored to have a site designed by you.
I hope your contest goes well and thanks for the opportunity.

Hello,
I am starting a Sweater Co. Designing is my first love, I enjoy the other things that come with a running a business. But I think a profesional web site is important. Lot of times it is first time they see your company.
I have heard so many nice things about your company and you. It would be more than an honor to win. Thank you for this opportunity. Warm regards

Hi Jennifer,
First of all, your last name, Haubein, sounds German and rimes with mine, Fleckenstein (Hehehe). Then, you’re young, with new blood, lots of vitality and great ideas. As a baby boomer, newbie on the Internet world, I should stick to you because you sound confident and excited when you talk about your business. You seem to be pretty successful because you have almost 4,000 followers on Twitter. I hope it will rub off on me. Your website is very well put together and quite professional. And as I understand, this website will bring traffic to my company. That’s exactly what I need for my website: professionalism and traffic. So, I’m very hopeful and excited about the opportunity to participate in this contest.
I can tell you have a passion for helping other people and so do I. I’m a network marketer in the area of health and wellness. I would like to be able to offer my followers lots of meaningful health content without being pushy or pitchy. I want them to be well informed to be able to make wise decisions about their health and their loved one's. And if they, in the future, become my customers or my partners in the business, they will have done it consciously. With your expertise and my life experience and eagerness to be successful, I really believe, we can get that accomplished: We should be able to come up with an excellent site.
I’m looking forward to the results…
Thanks,
Ligia Fleckenstein

If Jennifer Haubin built me a website as a prize my business would grow exponentially. Overnight I have been approved to display content on another site and I need Jenny's product and services to catapult myself into the web community.
