Mark Bennett - How Wordpress Tutoring Transformed My Business

ABOUT THE PRESENTATION
Tap into the DIY movement in WordPress by adding tutoring services to your offerings. WordPress powers 43% of the web, creating an influx of new users eager to learn how to build websites. With over 55,000 plugins and themes in the .org repository alone, hundreds of hosting providers, CDNs, security configurations, and email setups, things can quickly become overwhelming for many DIYers. In this presentation, we'll learn how to turn tutoring sessions into repeat business, up-sell clients into full site builds, and leverage affiliate marketing. We'll also discuss using recorded sessions and client testimonials as powerful social media content to grow a brand and build long-term client relationships. Discover how adding tutoring to your services can help your business grow alongside your clients' success.
