March 2004
Hello,
I hired Helen to put together
my website which I designed the look and layout of
(much to her horror.)
One of the first things I found
out about Helen is that she has a healthy level of
patience. She does, however, know to draw the line
at a certain point. As a business person and customer,
I found that to be positive for me as it provided
me with the latitude to get some of my particularly
hair brained artist ideas for my site accomplished
with out feeling like, or sensing that, I was taking
advantage of her. And it gave me solid parameters
to work within. Thus, I knew the limits of what was
available vs. what we'd agreed on, time and budget
wise, and what extras were going to cost.
I continue to find Helen to
be eager to please and ambitious to succeed at tasks
she undertakes - but she will not, in my experience,
try to sell you something you don't need or that will
not be of value to you. She will tell you the truth.
Helen has also proven to be
very industrious , driven, and dedicated and I've
always been delighted by her 'artistic sense' and
'artistic eye' despite the fact that she is not an
artist and, prior to meeting me, used to cross to
the other side of the street when ever she saw an
artist coming.
Helen has the advantage of
being able to create multi language sites or multiple
versions of a site, each in a different language.
Her samples on the eComCreator.com site contain just
such variations.
Helen's rates are very reasonable
and excellent value for the product produced.
Please keep in mind that there
is no such thing as a quality quick and or
cheap site. I ran in to the same situation as a radio
commercial producer - even the simplest most basic
creation will ALWAYS take longer than the client thinks.
This is for many reasons including the fact that you
are imaging in your head all that would take place.
For example, try this: read this testimonial letter
from the beginning to about here, to your self, while
timing it, and then write down how long it took. Now,
read it again, out loud, at a speed that a group of
people could follow along with comfortably and clearly
understand what you're saying - again while timing
yourself. Note the difference in times. That's a simple
example of my point. Now, imagine all the inevitable
complications that can crop up.
I just felt as I have years
of first hand personal experience with the phenomenon,
that I should pass the info on to you for your consideration.
Did I mention Helen has been
known to feed you delicious oranges and tea when you
visit or work together on a project?
I have no reservations what
so ever about recommending that you call Helen to
discuss your ideas and needs.
Sincerely
Marc Robert North
Artist
PS- my web site has been working
flawlessly for a couple years now.
Thanks a lot to talent of eComCreator
for designing an amazing banner and promoting my dance
performances. I wholeheartedly recommend them!
