I might do one up after the summer...I'm pretty busy with Yamaha and my own gigs.

You're right, though, it can only be a plus.

IMO every pro player should have a website....it's like having a business card extension..... people like to see & hear what they are paying for only makes sense.

I'd also suggest rewriting the copy on the homepage. While its kind of homey it could be better...

Are you only marketing to nursing homes? What other type of clients would you like to work for?

They get to see what they are getting at my gigs...gee, that reminds me, I should get some personal business cards made up...I have lots of Yamaha cards.

And I was planning to retire this year...

Bill,
My only interest is in the Senior market. I have had my fill of smoke filled clubs, dance bands and drunk sidemen, travelling, etc.. decades ago.

So, my website is aimed for a niche market and only them.

Donny,

I have to put off retirement till next year because the two hospital stays this year threw off my plans a bit.

At least I've cut back on the number of gigs, and started charging more for them, so it will work out about the same monetarily.

I just wish I wasn't so lazy about getting cards printed, and web sites started...they just don't matter right now...I get plenty of bookings without them, so they can wait.

Ian
