Day 17-A Book That Changed My Views
I am a big reader and I don’t know that I have read a book that has changed my views on anything. I have read a lot of books that have opened my eyes to things but not changed my views. Right now I am reading Dog The Bounty Hunters first book. I am amazed by how much he has gone through and yet still has his faith. So it has made me realize that I need to be strong in my own faith even when life totally sucks for me.

Want learn more about Jacqui? Keep reading to hear what she has to say:
1.) What got you interested in Blog Design?
What got me interested is that I couldn’t find any “pre-made” designs out there that I liked for my blogs so I started to create my own. I started to learn the HTML of it all and got to work on creating my own designs. soon after I started to do little designs for blogger friends and it just took off from there. One of the people I was creating for told that I should start my own business. From then on I have been working on it.
2.) What kinds of things will be happening during your launch party?
Prizes, 12 Prizes will be given away: Buttons, Animated Headers, some packages and i will be giving away as a grand prize “Every thing I Can Do” blog re-design package.
also if you would like to purchase any of my 2 largest packages within the week of my launch party they will be 25% off.
3.) What is the one thing that you would like your potential clients know?
As of right now I’m only doing blogger blogs. WordPress will come soon but I want to learn everything about blogger designs before I start on WordPress.
I make fresh and clean designs, I want to make your blog to look amazing. I don’t mess with the template much so your page will not take forever to load like other designers layouts do. If you mess with the codes in the template a lot, or have a really complicated template installed your page will load really slow, and readers do not like that. they want to go on to your blog and read not have to wait 1-3 minutes for your whole page to load.
I DO NOT ask for your Blogger password at all during the design process. I don’t not feel comfortable giving my password out to anyone so I would not ask you to do the same. I know that people contact me about this and when I tell them that I don’t need the password to install the design they are shocked since all the other designers ask for it. From what I have seen with other designer sites are that I’m the only one that doesn’t ask for your password. (and I’m the cheapest and I give you a whole lot for bang for your buck).
I will make your blog look the way you want, I will involve you into the process also. I will send you everything little thing i create for your approval, if you don’t like the font i will change it. if you do like it at all I will create something that you are happy with. after I have installed your design and let say a month passes by and you want me to change the font or want it to say something else I will change it for you at no cost to you. I want to make you the buyer happy no matter what.
4.) What should potential clients know before contacting a blog designer? Before contacting a blog designer you should know what you want, and the feel you want for you blog. so you want it to reflex what you blog about (being a stay at home mom, giveaways, hobby’s) ; do you want it to have a certain theme (stars, clouds, flowers); and what colors do you want it to have. If you don’t know what you want or any ideas you have for your blog I will help you in any way I can, I’ll try to get ideas from what you already have as a blog design or what you write about.
You should feel 100% comfortable with the designer before you purchase and ask questions if you have any before buying.
HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!

A Review
This is my first review and let me just tell you I am so glad that I get to write this. If you haven’t noticed I got a blog makeover and I am in love with everything that has to do with it! This is who did it:
Let me just tell you that this girl is great at what she does. She sends you e-mails with what she is working on. She was super patient with me even though I have a super hard time make up my mind and change it all the time. Here is the list of things she did for me:
