But the real value and benefit lies in what you and your visitors won’t see on the surface of the site. Unlike many design companies who mainly focus on the design alone, we go much further. We offer a unique mixture of coaching and technical talent to our clients. We offer online consultation every step of the way with the new look of your site and won’t let you settle. We won’t seek approval until we get an “I LOVE it!” from you. We want you to be happy and we want your site to grow with you. What we don’t want is giving you something you’ll need to change in six months. Long after the project is done, we are still here with added support. We have a wealth of information at our fingertips, and a library of information we are constantly learning and keeping up to date. We believe in passing this information on to you as well. This brings a nice mixture of training/teaching/coaching to the mix our clients really enjoy. And this is where you’ll find the reason for the big difference in price. We give you the personal attention and continued support other companies can’t or won’t—now, and long after your first project with us us finished.

“My business as a performance artist is beginning to feel like a business where what I offer is of great value to the clients who seek it. Wendi has helped me to get to a place where I am saying “yes” to my business. With her compassionate coaching I feel in control of the choices I make because she holds me accountable to the work I say I want to do. I’m making progress in places where I was once slacking. I’m receiving responses and requests from potential clients as a result of moving forward with the agenda she and I have agreed on. I was frustrated at moving at a snail’s pace. Wendi has shown me that my biggest accomplishment is consistency…one drop in the bucket at a time. Patience, sincere work, and authentic care for my clients is the key. She’s helped to put the heart back into my offerings to serve as a performer with discipline and a consistent commitment to my ‘yes’.” —Ramona King; Albuquerque, NM

The Helping Hands Ezine Package Do you find the thought of producing your ezine on a weekly basis daunting? We understand. We know how much work it takes to get an ezine out on schedule. Your genius work may lie in writing the content, but not so much in the technicalities of production. If you already have your own hosting and a preferred email client (like AWeber, Contestant Contact or Mail Chimp) we have a package to help you get that ezine out to the world. Whether you need the helping hand on an overly busy week or if you’d like to buy a year’s worth of Helping Hand issues, we’re here for you. Requirements: • Must have self-hosting • Must have an email client such as AWeber, Constant Contact or Mail Chimp. • Scheduling is very important. All content and images need to be received by Blue Sun Studio no later than 48 hours before your ezine is set to publish. • All photos need to be included separately. Don’t embed them into a word document with your written content. • Written content needs to be sent in a .doc or .rtf file without any fancy formatting done. Basic formatting like bold and italics are fine. It is important to note that Blue Sun will not be responsible for errors in the content. All content sent to us must be the final, proof-read version ready to go. If we do happen to find a typo, we will fix it. If we see an awkward sentence, we’ll ask if you’d like it changed and offer suggestions. Other than that, we won’t be actively proofing. Pricing: On-going Subscription Plan: With this plan you subscribe and pay only $100 a month for up to four transmissions each month. Do you need more than four transmissions per month? That’s okay. Add as many as you like for $20 each to your subscription plan at time of sign up. Have a special occasions? Have one or two unplanned announcements? Emails sent additionally outside of your basic or custom subscription plan are billed at $35 each. Additional Terms: Refunds & Cancellations If for any reason you cannot get your content delivered to us, you must notify Blue Sun before the 48 hour deadline. Unused transmissions are not acumulative and will not carry over to the next month. You may also cancel your subscription at any time before your next billing cycle begins. Renewing at a later date does not guarantee the previous rate. Blue Sun Studio 2013 Services & Pricing Catalog.

Helping Hands
The “Bat-Phone” Retainer Package: Do you want someone who can get the job done quickly while you get on with your genius work? Sometimes it helps to have an expert in your back pocket for those “just-in-case” moments when you aren’t in the mood, technology gets freaky, or you’ve reached the end of your ideas. Bat-phone services can be purchased ahead of time on retainer packages. The retainer packages are meant for short term projects only and all hours expire after 6 months. Retainer fee options: • Three Hours: $400 • Five Hours: $600 • Ten Hours: $900 Retainer packages also work extremely well for all those design projects too small to fit into any major category. This package does not apply to new projects where we don’t have your branding on existing files.
