Are you wondering what the best colors for your marketing are?

Do you want your marketing to attract customers like bees to honey?

Could your color choices be making you lose customers and profits?

If you're like most people, you probably don't have formal design education. You're just flying by the seat of your pants, teaching yourself whatever software is available to you. You may even think you don't have "a creative bone in your body." But you need to create something for your boss or your own business - and you need to do it RIGHT.

Let's face it. We all have two eyes and a brain, but we are not all born with a natural eye for design. There are still fundamentals that can make or break your design and waste your efforts.

Do YOU know what they are?

The only thing standing between you and creating something that pulls in customers, gets attention and is memorable, is a few basic design fundamentals. Like color!

What can happen if you do choose the wrong colors? You can:

  • Confuse and mislead readers
  • Decrease readability and comprehension
  • Cast an unprofessional light on your business
  • and worse - drive AWAY your customers!
Not enough contrast!
These colors vibrate together
Appropriate for business?

On the other hand, with the RIGHT colors, you can:

  • Attract and draw in your audience
  • Subconsciously communicate emotions and symbolic concepts that connect the viewer with your message
  • Lead the reader through your content - in the direction YOU want them to go
  • Call attention to important information
  • Convey a sense of professionalism about you and your business

The good news is, you do not need to go to college to “get” color – you simply need to understand the basics, and get familiar with the ways that colors go together. Once you understand what good color combinations look like, know a little something about color meanings, and which colors to use together (or not!) there are literally millions of potential combinations to play with.

" For those of us not blessed with a natural "eye" for color and design, Shades of Success is just the ticket for helping us project the correct image - whether whimsical or serious, business or just for fun."

Karen Kanakanui, Business & Marketing Communications, www.WordsAreUs.com

And trust me, that is when the real fun begins - because you're no longer stressed out about what works and what won't, what your boss will think or whether your customers will throw it in the can. You're free to just CREATE and DESIGN.

I'd like to introduce you to a fast, easy-to-understand guide that you can download RIGHT NOW to boost your understanding and knowledge of color.

It seems like there is SO much software that lets just about anyone try their hand at graphic design, web design and desktop publishing. I am a college educated, professional graphic designer with nearly 20 years of design and business experience, but I actually got my start by "doing it myself" as a secretary! That is why, after writing documentation, training materials and free articles for over a decade, I knew I could create a simple but powerful color resource for people just like yourself.

"Shades of Success is brilliant"

Robert Middleton, Action Plan Marketing

Let's look at what you will get when you purchase Shades of Success:

First, you will read an overview of color, the most common color schemes, and some definitions of the color technology you need to know about.

After that, we get into the fun part – looking at color palettes. We will take a trip around the color wheel - green, blue, purple, lavender, pink, red, orange, yellow; with a few stops in the neutral territories - beige, brown, black, gray, white!

Want to peek inside?

For each color,

  • you will learn the symbolism and meaning of the color,
  • you will get palette ideas (what color goes with orange, for example) and then, perhaps most importantly,
  • you will learn what NOT to do!

Many times, when a business owner tells me that his web site gets many visitors, but isn't making enough sales, we trace the problem to the colors that the web site is using. Using bad color combinations will hurt your web site visitors' eyes and your web site's profits.

Biana Babinsky, Effective Online Marketing www.AvocadoConsulting.com

With this foundation, and your own experience, you will start to just KNOW, instinctively, and intuitively, what colors work – and which ones do not.

That is my goal for you. Shades of Success is your first step.

Guarantee you don't make any crazy color mistakes!

You will not risk anything with that first step, either! Your purchase takes place on a secure server, and you can pay with either Pay Pal or your Visa or Mastercard. You will receive the information you need IMMEDIATELY. I am completely confident that you will find information jammed into both ebooks that you will be able to use repeatedly, and that you will become a better designer after reading it. However, you have my guarantee that if you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, I will refund your money in a flash, with a virtual smile.

PS. I always ask people this question: If a picture is worth a thousand words, and you only get one chance to make a first impression, can you REALLY afford to design your own marketing? Hmm! Food for thought - and that is why I am sharing this knowledge. Don't leave the success of your marketing to chance !

Happy Designing!
