I am starting a hr consulting business that will assist community organizations with less than 200 employees, that specialize in assisting women who have been abused. My services will be for the staff, but I need to know how to market to this group and I am looking to have a website built inexpensively, any suggestions?
Thanks
Donna
Donna,
where are you located? I may know someone that can mentor you in this field. Feel free to PM me. I am talking about the service aspect of your company not the web site. Nikole, would be my suggestion for a website. I agree, you don`t need a huge web site to start. Maybe just a few pages for presence. You could also check out your local phone book. I have had less than stellar experiences with a large web development company and a local "reputable" company. You really have to check out the refernces and ask there clients how they felt about the service they were given. A website is an investment that you should not take lightlt, especially when you are hiring a company to do it for you. That is why i say, talk to Nikole Web Development and Marketing here at SUN. She does beautiful work than complies with all standards. A great web developer/designer is really hard to come by.
You could also use a premade web service, where you just plug in your info and pay a monthly fee.
Whereever you are at, this place has very reliable resources to get you to where you want to go.

Donna,
I agree with Erin. Make sure you deal with a reputable local company.
Trust the recommendation of a satisfied customer first, and the company with the large, attractive yellow pages ad last.
Hello,
I would recommend using Women In Need Network for your web design needs, based on two factors:
1. They actually work with domestic violence victims, and domestic violence centers around the nation. These people would be a great resource to you.
2. They offer great web design packages, including free web hosting. We used them for our web site.
When I talked to the director, she told me that one of the ways they fund their programs is by offering web design programs. When you visit their site, you will see a "Web Design" link in the navigation menu, click on it for more information. You will also find a "D V Shelters" link - they have 2000 domestic violence centers listed by state. It`s a great database, which you should find useful.
The director told me that they do not receive any funding, so they have found creative ways to keep their programs running: web design; seminars; education programs; etc.
Their web site is www.WomenInNeedNetwork.org
I hope this helps you.
