Happy Client, Happy Me!! Solving WordPress Premium Theme Issues

I love the challenges of working with WordPress websites.

The sense of fulfillment I feel after seeing the output of my work and having   happy clients that express their gratitude.

Below is a screenshot of my conversation with a client who had posting issue with her WordPress website:

 

Having issues with your WordPress websites? I might be able to help. 😉

WordPress Theme Customization for a Cafe Website: LemonChili

I love it when I get to work with projects customizing WordPress premium themes and helping clients establish their business’ or brand’s online presence.  It hones my skills in WordPress which I first learned with my internship with Sir Jay Pasana. Here is one of my previous project with a client for a cafe website. My tasks were the following:

• WordPress installation – For this project, I had to install it using Filezilla (FTP) since the client’s service provider does not use cPanel.
• WordPress Theme Customization – I customized a WordPress theme which is called LemonChili. It is a premium and responsive WordPress theme which has special features for restaurants, cafes, bars, clubs and events.
• Install plugins – Initially, I added just the basic plugins that are needed for a website to function well. There were several server issues and challenges but was able to resolve it through the WordPress Forums. A lot of them are very helpful

• Upload contents – mostly personal photos provided by the client
• Edit images using Photoshop  and resizing it- I edited the background image for an unwanted element as well as resizing photos which are blurry.

Here is a screenshot of the finished cafe website:

Messages from my client, Lee O.

Help me Jaysarie! I give up!  I have no idea how to use WordPress, which is why I have you thankfully. 🙂

Thank you Jaysarie.  That is great.  I am so out of my depth with WordPress!  I guess I expected that it would look just like the LemonChili example and I just had to “remove” pages rather than add them.  The back-end just looks a bit confusing to a 1st-time like me and I know I will waste a lot of time on it.

Having another full time job and doing the café website in my spare time, means it probably won’t get done for a long time!

Thanks you so much!

 

Video Marketing

Another skill in demand of being a Virtual Assistant is creating videos for products, events and services and upload it in YouTube for promotions. It is also one way to earn passive income by partnering with YouTube. I learned this through my online awesome group, the Jomar Hilario Mastery Group. Here’s a video I created for the book of Bo Sanchez, Awakening the Healer in You as an application of the workshop webinar with Sir Jomar Hilario.

Business Opportunities in Mobile Marketing: The You Tube Version

Hi! It’s been a while since I last posted here. Been very busy with my video training with my awesome, “soon to be client”, taking care of my baby plus there’s the problem of internet connection being very slow. Anyway, I had the chance to attend the webinar (free!) of Sir Jomar Hilario on How to Earn Money using YouTube and Facebook. Since it’s a learning webinar (that’s how great my mentor is!), we have the chance to try it ourselves and thus I decided to make a video of the Business Opportunities in Mobile Marketing, which of those of you who follow me here, I already posted as a Presentation using Slideshare. Until now, have not explored yet how to put together the slides in pixlr as a form of Infographics.

Anyway, I’ll do that soon and share it here. For now, I would like to share with you the output of the YouTube  Video I created through the webinar of Sir Jomar Hilario. Tutorial on this will also be posted soon.

How to Create QR Codes using Kaywa

Are you familiar with the image? Have you seen one of these in magazines? This is what you call a Quick Response (QR)  Code which is similar to barcode used by retailers to keep track of inventory. It originally came from Japan for their automotive industry. Presently, it has become more popular because of its fast readability and more storage capacity than the UPC barcodes.

In mobile marketing, it can be used for many purposes such as contact information and directions to your business, promotions, coupons and special offers, survey and feedback forms,  and provide details of products and services.

The image above is my very first QR Code for this blog site. I was so amazed of what I have done and made a tutorial on this. Check it below and start creating your own QR Codes.

Business Opportunities in Mobile Marketing – Infographics

Hi! I learned from HubSpot a new skill, which is, creating Infographics.  However, I am still a newbie and has so much to learn. I would like to share with you my very first infographics which talks about the business opportunities in mobile marketing. I still have to learn how to connect all the slides together using a free online tool suggested by HubSpot, called pixlr.

The Write or Die App

This is my first time to use this app. Thanks to Noemi Cariaso-Mora and Diane Aldecoa Dela Cruz of my awesome groups, the Jomar Hilario Mastery Group and the VA Seminar Group  who introduced this to me. I have been trying to test myself if I can handle writing jobs since I don’t have that confidence of my writing skills. I know that in time, through the help of this app, I’ll be able to hone my skills in writing and will be able to have the confidence to apply for an online job on article writing. They say that pay in article writing is great and I want to try it because I just realized that data entry tasks really pays a little amount and no challenge for me. What my great virtual friends advised me was not to stick with data entry tasks but just make it as a stepping stone that indeed there’s money online as well as to gain more confidence.
