Matt Weeden named to CIPA College 2011 faculty

"Everything you need to know about independent publishing, when you need to know it!"

CIPA is the Colorado Independent Publishers’ Association, dedicated to helping its members join the ranks of successful authors. One of the largest and most active publishing related groups in the country, CIPA has 300+ members, including authors, publishers, editors, illustrators, layout and cover designers, printers and others who help one another to learn by sharing from their varied experiences.

CIPA College is a program offered by the organization to educate its members in greater depth than the regular monthly meetings. Courses offered this year include copyright, publishing, marketing, brand building, e-books – and of course, Web sites!

On Saturday, February 12, Matt Weeden will be teaching the class Creating a Web Site that Sells Books. This hour-long class will cover the basic components of a site that is designed specifically to sell your books. This class will be available after the presentation through the CIPA Web site.

Come join us at 2:30 pm on Saturday the 12th for an educational hour on Web sites! Details on the class and the program are available through these links.

Thanks to Dan Miller, dean of CIPA College, for the opportunity to present!

Martin & Associates site launched

Matt Weeden Design announces the launch of the new site for Martin & Associates, marketing and brand building experts based in Colorado Springs.

Martin & Associates wanted a warm, inviting design with plenty of room for messaging, as well as a site they could easily update themselves. Matt Weeden Design created a site with these design sensibilities, using images sparingly to liven up the site while leaving ample room for text. The site was built on the WordPress platform to allow easy content updates. A blog also allows the team to write articles and post insights.

Thanks to Shari and Anita at Martin & Associates for the opportunity to work on this project!

See the site live at smartinmarketing.com.
