Please read this heartfelt and gracious testimonial from the client, Elliot Mintz:
“I am very pleased to announce that today we are launching my new website. I had one up for 10 years with 300 hours of material. It was very slow, a bit clunky and difficult to navigate.
It served it’s purpose and is now retired.
The new one is fast moving and filled with all the info on me anybody could possibly want. There is a ‘contact’ page for journalists seeking interviews and an office number that will take personal calls for me.
It focuses primarily on news and updates on my book.
For its creation, I teamed up with a talented man who has years of media consultant knowledge…..and even better, he keeps my hours!
His name is Aaron Ganz. His company is ‘GANZ Media’.
We did zoom sessions for months that began at 10 p.m. And ended 4 or 5 hours later. He was very patient and i am grateful for his support.
There is lots of stuff about me on the google highway. But this site is the ‘official’ one. I hope you find it useful.
Thank you, Aaron. You certainly went the distance with me in creating my new website. We sometimes worked till 3 in the morning dealing with the placement of pictures, videos and texts. I can’t think of any designer ….. Or almost anyone who could handle my unusual sleep schedule. You did a great job and i would recommend you to anyone wishing to create their own site.”
