“Email Player” Roger Haeske says about my new blog design…<\/p>\n

Just wanted to say I like the way it looks quite a bit. Can you give me the name of this guy and contact info? That is if you’ve been satisfied with the results.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yo’ command is my wish.<\/p>\n

He is none other than “Email Players” (not surprised at all when MY\u00a0guys & gals turn out to be outliers at what they do) subscriber…<\/p>\n

Keith Commins.<\/p>\n

He’s originally from Ireland.<\/p>\n

He’s one of the few non-flakey designers I’ve ever met.<\/p>\n

And, he not only did WHAT he said… WHEN he said… but, he took\u00a0the ideas I had and RAN with them, turning my blog at\u00a0http:\/\/www.BenSettle.net<\/strong><\/a> into something way better than I ever\u00a0could have hoped for.<\/p>\n

Every nuance I asked for was included.<\/p>\n

Every vague idea (I couldn’t explain) was developed.<\/p>\n

And, every detail was taken care of.<\/p>\n

He also “gets” direct response marketing — which makes him a very\u00a0rare (hellz, dang near EXTINCT) bird indeed.<\/p>\n

Now, before anyone reading this gets too excited…<\/strong><\/p>\n

He’s not cheap.<\/p>\n

So if you’re a price shopper, don’t waste his time.<\/p>\n

His service is for VALUE shoppers, not bargain hunters.<\/p>\n

Don’t know the difference?<\/p>\n

Then you ain’t ready for him.<\/p>\n

(In fact, you got bigger problems than your site design.)<\/p>\n

Also, he’s not gonna just make you a replica of my site.<\/p>\n

I already can see a few whipper-snappers going to him saying, “make\u00a0my site look just like Ben’s!” This happened with the splash\/squeeze\u00a0page my friend Jim Yaghi designed a couple years ago. Instead, he’s\u00a0gonna demand you make your site YOUR personality, not mine. That\u00a0you be an original you, not a warmed over version of me or anyone\u00a0else.<\/p>\n

In other words…<\/p>\n

The dude’s a true professional.<\/p>\n

Not just a $5 per project hack.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I get no “kick back” for promoting him.<\/p>\n

I just really liked what he did.<\/p>\n

I really liked working with him.<\/p>\n

And, I really like the idea of helping him have so much demand\u00a0he’ll have to raise his fees even higher.\u00a0(So you best hop on the\u00a0stick and hire him ASAP if’n that’s your plan.)<\/p>\n

Anyway, here’s where to find him:<\/p>\n

That’s it for today.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow, something else…<\/p>\n
