Business is steadily growing!

Thanks to God the web development business is growing steadily. The orders from Fiverr are starting to flow in and I've been getting good reviews. I did receive one bad review from a crazy person, but it hasn't stopped new customers from trusting me. I've maxed out my gig offerings and I'm now just a few steps away from becoming a Level 1 Seller and I'm very excited!

I got to attend my first WordCamp event earlier this month in Philly and I learned so much. One of my goals was to learn how to develop themes and one of the sessions gave me enough information to research and start developing themes on my own. This whole time I thought I had to master PHP and the WordPress codex before I could create a theme. The speaker at WordCamp showed how we could use a starter theme to create from scratch and I was blown away.

My plan to offer Elementor templates as digital downloads was scratched because Elementor doesn't offer a simple or secure way to transfer templates. I'm going to pivot my Etsy web development downloads business to offer HTML website templates, HTML email templates and email signatures. I'll offer custom WordPress sites built with Elementor as a service in a separate venture. All this will be under the WebCodeDesigner umbrella.

I also want to offer other digital downloads, such as resume templates in Word, PowerPoint templates, wedding invitations, Instagram templates and funeral programs. All things that people will need forever. Being evergreen is the key.

I'm scheduled to finish my Bachelor degree this December and I want to get these businesses rolling before then. These last three classes are intense, but I don't feel anxious about them. I'm actually excited to get them done and move on to the next phase of life. God willing.
