How one blog can inspire us

A few days ago I read Ariel's blog about how we are professionals with skills that are worth something and my mind started ticking. You can catch up here if you missed it:

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/arielharris7/blog/we-are-now...

If others have read any of my comments you will know that my cousin had already asked if I would build him a website for his business. My first reaction was "ohh no I'm still way too new to this to offer to build someone elses!".

So 24 hours after being inspired by Ariel's blog, and after tossing about the pros and cons in my head, doing a little research online and generally musing over the possibilities I have started a little sideline business.

Excited and a little nervous

Introducing my fledgling website development business. My aim is to engage with my local business community and build start up websites for small business owners, helping them get an online presence (through WA of course).


My partner thinks it's a creepy business name, but it has grown on me so I'm going to run with it for the time being.

Following a little more encouragement from AlexEvans I've taken the plunge and purchased the domain name and have started work on a demo site to test the waters.

So what do you think is Mind Meld a creepy name?
Is anyone else here building paid sites for others?

I'm open to any suggestions, advice or things to look out for as I move forward with this little sideline venture. Wish me luck!

Thank you Sydney, I’m not sure if everyone is too polite or the no’s just haven’t seen it yet but I’m glad other members like the name.

Thanks again.

Love the name.

Thank you for taking the time to comment. I wish you every success with your site Elyta.

Love the name - strong branding! :)

~Mark :)

Thank you for the vote of confidence Mark, I thought I was being pretty clever LOL

Personally I think it is a very captivating name. It shares just enough but leave you asking for more. I have not done any other business though.

Thanks for your reply Melissa, I haven’t done anyone else’s yet either lol, but everyone had to have a first at some stage I suppose :)

Right. I just had a moment not too long ago that I have to step out of the box. It is scary but I am sure it will be worth it in the end. Good luck to you

Hey Heidi,

I think it´s cool, modern and well done on the logo and font! Very nice! :) I´m a newbie too but love what you´re doing.Go for it!

Thanks Leanne. I really liked the font.

If your ever needing to design your own logo, Canva has heaps of choices and easy to customize. They have some paid options but I was able to do this one for free.

Great logo Heidi!

Thank you, good old Canva comes up trumps again.

I like the name and can see the connection with your business. I see it as collaborating with your clients to develop an online vision of their business.

Yay that’s exactly it and I didn’t have to explain it.
I hope you and I are not the only two in the world that can see it lol.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Hi Heidi, I do not have enough experience to offer suggestions or advice yet. But I do love the name "Mind Meld" to me it sounds a little industrial and strong, and I do wish you lots of luck!!
Jenny

Thanks heaps for your comment Jenny, if I get too many saying it’s a bit off I’ll can it, but I can put 1 in the good column lol.
