Join us for an evening of Q&A with Kaytlyn Sanders of Beneficial Design. As the owner of a small web design studio who works with small business owners Kaytlyn has the experience to answer all of your questions on how to start or proceed with your website.

Kaytlyn Sanders, principal at Beneficial Design, will cover topics such as domains, web hosting, email marketing, how to work best with a designer, what you need to create a website, how collaborative the process is, what other consultants you may need to hire, and which web technologies are really worth your time. A presentation with a generous question and answer session will allow you to get the information you need for your online presence.

Kaytlyn has been designing for web and print the last 10 years and opened up her own design studio in 2005.
